What do y’all do?

Hey everyone, i’m a recent graduate in a year into my first entry-level job and I’m starting to get the itch to get up and move again. I’ve taken time away from uni to work and travel a lot, lived in different places, and learned several languages. So as you can imagine, I’m starting to dread the sedentary nature of my newfound 9-5 life. 😅 I’ve begun to think that remote-only work would be a good fit for me, so I want to be able to start pivoting professionally in a direction that would be most conducive to that style of work.

In what industries and roles do the majority of y’all work? Do you feel like you have the ability to move up in your current role? How many of you are self-employed? How did you find your job? What size company do you work at? Do you feel like postgraduate education would make you more marketable? Does your role come with geographic limitations, i.e. you can’t live in certain places, travel internationally, etc?

I don’t wanna be too specific either, but I graduated with degrees in economics and architecture from a good school. I loved both of the things I studied and would be interested in working in them. Has anyone else graduated with something similar and found their way?

I’m really going through a tough time at work – my boss is really hostile (probably verbally and emotionally abusive) – and I’ve concluded that I need to get out of there for my sanity. I sincerely appreciate all of your responses and whatever you have time to share 🙂
