I have a clerical job know that has no opportunity for growth,the wages are very low, and there is ongoing office drama. I have a school age child and I am searching for an occupation that will allow flexibility with my child. I do not work weekends,nights or holidays. I think I do not have alot of options for flexible careers at this point without going back to college. I have a degreee in communications and I maxed out students loans while trying to obtain a teacher certification. Know I am default on the loans. I would like to apply for a federal job (fbi), but I am default on my loans. I have considered becoming a police. The job pays well and I am interested in that type of work, the only problem is the work hours. My husband is a truck driver, so his hours are irregular. Being a police officer would mean working irregular hours and I do not have a babysitter for those hours. One good thing is a police officer can bid only by senority after probation, with no gurantees for good hours.
