I’m a 21 year old male who has very mild autism. I would say socially I’m not always the best but am always willing to help customers. I work at Coles doing various things and the last 6-7 months has been mainly working by myself which I do like but the work itself is a massive overload. I just don’t know what to do and what else I’d even be interested in. I don’t fully believe in myself due to having autism and it makes me feel down sometimes.

What do I even want to do?? I love my job, I’ve spent many years doing it, but I’m still constantly wondering if there’s a different job out there. Discovering the job is the hard part. My skills are definitely transferable, but not job-specific for a big change. Taking cool job recommendations/ aspirations, from a Childcare educator.

Hi I'm Debbie and my career is in the Aged Care field. I have worked in both the Facility and also the Community. I'm currently working in the Aged Care Community doing PC, Some Social Support and lots and lots of DA. I'm finding it really tough to stay with my current job due to all the DA's the company gives you. I feel really burnt out but I honestly don't know what else I can do as they all ask for experience and my only experience is in Aged Care as a Support Worker. Please Help!

Is it crazy to start a career in baking at the age of 45? I have been doing an apprenticeship for the last three months in a bakery where I spend most of my time working on a production line. Since starting work there I’ve developed carpal tunnel and am constantly tired! Anyone here in their 40s who works as a baker or pastry chef in a smaller company that can tell me if it’s easier physically than a big bakery like baker’s delight? Cheers

Not sure if this is the right place to post as I've never really had a 'career'? Ive hopped from temp job to casual job and part time since leaving school. Had kids so spent time raising them and now they're in school, Im 35 and feel like I want to do something more serious but where do I start? I feel old and behind the 8 ball. Aside from applying for entry level jobs what else can I do? Is it worth getting a certificate or training at my age?

Hi, I have been in the childcare industry for 31 years.I love my job but I am so burnt out from being over worked. I would really like to find a job that is till in the industry but more of an administrative role. Or even working as a teacher aide in a primary school. I am open for any suggestions. Thank you
