yeah I'm encouraged. I'm encouraged to stay in my job! but it's true, I guess most of us fall into the trap that the grass is always greener somewhere else. I think any career will have it's own set of problems. what it boils down to I think is if you have the passion to pursue that path come what may. thanks for the perspective

I think any career will have it's own set of problems. what it boils down to I think is if you have the passion to pursue that path come what may. thanks for the perspective For young people like you, if you haven't gotten your master's degrees, and haven't any experience, I suggest an alternative. Try tutoring. And start with one student. One hour per day, 5 days a week. You are responsible for all subjects. You are responsible for getting in touch with the school teachers for any clarification on schedules of activities, homework and exams. You have to be punctual. Some parents count the hours of your attendance. Even minutes. If there are holidays or any reason that tutor time is skipped, you have to find time (usually Saturdays) to make up for lost time. Make sure you render at least 20 hours worth of your time per month. Make a good impression. You may not be earning a dime tutoring 1 student, that's fine. With enough experience and good feedbacks, you will prosper simply by word of mouth of your clients. The number of students will grow. Then you start saving up big time. And live happily ever after... without leaving your day job.
