Normally I try to be as upbeat as possible about bills, our debt and finances in general but today is tough.
I have a job that pays me well with fantastic benefits - great vacation, tuition reimbursement, job stability (at least as much as anyone can have in this environment) etc. The problem is in the last 4-6 months the work I do has changed drastically and I absolutely hate what I am doing now.
I know it would be extremely foolish of me to even think about looking outside of the organization, but I am sitting here dreading going into work tomorrow and feeling trapped by expenses and bills that limit me from looking elsewhere into a profession I would enjoy more.
I am a technology project manager - I have been a project manager in some way or another since 1995 with the exception of 2 years. I am so sick of managing other people's work, schedules, and deliverables. I really do just want a job where

Hi, smoochdog...I so understand how you feel.
I burnt out on the banking industry in 2001.

Work takes so many hours of our lives, and you have a perfect right to enjoy that time. Taking the classes is an excellent way to create a new future. I would just try to see the current job as part of the game, making your new future possible while you get everything else into place.
