I need career advice… I need to find a job that pays well but is also enjoyable. I have a background in science but it doesn’t have to be that. Just need some thoughts.

Honestly man, in this economy, just do whatever you can. Jobs are fee and far apart. Also, that science background, unless it is a doctorate, is not worth 💩. Here’s my advice: Look for the highest paying job/field you can get into. Even if you hate it! And then use that money to live your best life.
