Careers & Employment - July 2007

So, I have recently transferred schools and I love the new city that I am in and the college itself. My problem is that I don't want to work in a lab all day. I find my major (Conservation Biology) interesting but I'm not sure what I want to do with it. The more people ask the more i realize that the only thing I KNOW I want to do is join the Peace Corps.
I was WOOFing (volunteering on an organic farm) this summer and I realized that I love the environment but I want to do something where I can connect with people and live sustainably. So now I'm considering becoming a midwife and transferring to a nursing program. The nursing school is only blocks away from my current college so I won't have to give up my apartment.
Should I just wait 2 yrs and finish up my bachelors or should I try and transfer again and just spend the extra year getting a nursing degree?

I want to know if other people who were formerly employed by Starbuck's have the same feeling about it as I do. This company, like so many other minimum wage jobs, takes advantage of people by hiring tons of desperate people, working them like a slave for 3 to 6 months until they finally get burned out, then firing them, or cutting their hours way back so they are forced to quit. I would like to hear from people who are no longer working for Starbuck's.

I don't want to hear from people who are working there now. I know you think you landed a great job, but wait a few more months, and watch what happens.
