As more and more news rolls in about failing banks, and the flagging economy I’ve become very concerned with my position down at our local bank. Working in Loan Placement has been nice, but never really that demanding. Until now that is.

With all the newest regulations and government oversights, loan officer training has now become mandatory. Not that there is anything wrong with being up to speed on all of the changes, but, well, change is hard!

And while change is coming, subjects like mortgage training are just not very spicy and interesting. Perhaps now is a good time to consider shifting to some other career interest.

Of course, while I’ve always wanted to write novels and be a world class chef, how can I simply walk away from the income my family needs and that I’m earning with my current job?

Maybe the best thing to do is get this new and ongoing training for my “day job” and seek out some expressive, self serving hobbies in my off time. I am pretty sure the local community college has a large selection of classes for folks, like me, who are simply interested in learning more about areas of life that share more appeal than just the 9 to 5 daily grind of a job.
