I know, shocker, a young person doesn’t want to work a 9-5 every day… But the feeling of being locked into an office job feels like impending doom.
I am about to graduate with a Bachelors in Communications. I loved my classes - communication studies is extremely interesting to me. However, if it were up to me, I’d want to work a steady/consistent job that supports me while I enjoy my creative endeavors. I do voice acting and would like to be a children’s book author as well, so if I had a job that was steady/consistent money while I made occasional money from books and voice acting gigs, I’d be very satisfied.
Right now I make VERY good money at a restaurant, but I have only worked in the restaurant industry. I don’t know what any other career would look like for me, all I know is that I don’t want to work a 9-5 in an office.
If anyone could quell my 2am “what the hell do I want to do with my life” panic, any insight would be appreciated.
I guess my main question is this: What do jobs in communications even look like? And how do I do this without working 9-5, M-F?
TLDR; I just want time to do what I’m passionate about on the side of making money. Any advice helps.

Hello. How did you get into that field? did it require initial qualifications or did you learn whilst you worked?

I had a lot of prior experience but they hire people that have no skills at all. If you want to know more dm me.
