Mrs. Atteberry commented how it is alright to change paths on a career, even if you don’t finish it, having a degree is not essential in your life. Our guests common likes on working in their fields are helping people and experiencing new situations. Advice from Mr. Haaland is to make yourself available if you want to be hired on most careers.
