So I currently work as an esthetician. While I do make decent money, my work life balance is way off. Most of the time due to my job I’m either emotionally drained, socially drained or physically drained. Either all that or after work I’m too tired to want to do anything due to being on my feet all day. I love my job which is why it’s conflicting. But lately Ive been needing more money I can’t live off 17.50 hourly plus tips in the Bay Area. Inflation is coming for my ass and I’ve cut so much out of my budget I can’t really enjoy anything. Now since I did trade school I don’t have the traditional college degree, so that eliminates most job. I can go back to a 2 year and finish, I just don’t have that energy. I don’t know if I should stay in the career I am or change and do something I don’t love for more money.
