I work as a home support worker (Mostly helping seniors with personal and/or house care. It's really great to be helping people and the hours and people vary enough to make each day different. But it doesn't pay a lot. I used to work in offices and made lots more but the tedium was so depressing. I lost that last job because I wasn't bilingual but in what I am doing now, that isn't a problem and there is no danger of ever losing my job. My concern is that if I stay away from office work too long, my qualifications will become stale. My income is currently supplemented by child tax benefit and orphan child benefit (daughter's dad died when she was 8) but both these will end when she turns 18 in 3 years.

I'm 40 and I've already got a degree in Business Administration back in 1989. I can't afford to go back to school again.
