Ask HN: How do you avoid the 9 to 5 life?
2 by itsevrgrn | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I am currently a first year student at university and wondering what I can do in the next few years to get a career that is not in corporate America. I know that the obvious answer is to start a startup, but wondering if you all have other unorthodox jobs. My dream has always been to work as a creative. Although I am currently in the business school (parent wanted me to), I have a huge passion for user research, graphic design, and more recently web development. Thinking about switching out of business school as I have no interest in becoming a consultant or investment banker. In all honestly I do not think I am good enough at math to switch to the engineering school and do computer science. I am taking computer science classes which I really enjoy, but I don't really want to take calculus 3 or differential equations. Curious to hear the opinions of this community.
