I am in your shoes. jsut 1 year ahead of you.

Im computer feild for the last 7+ years Last year I decieded when I lose my job (always a great thing they hang over your head in the IT feild) that this isnt what I wanted to do. I wanted to learn about culinary and have something to fall back on. well long stry short. the CC I was going to go to gave me a hard time. I went to a much better school in NYC and Im almost done.

Work Full time and go to school. IT will be the best thing for you and your family. and like someone else said. abotu 3/4 of the way threw you will know if its for you.

What Im doing is trying to ease my way in.
You can keep you current job and work 1 or 2 days in a resturant and really make a good trnasition.

The computer feild is very flexible with the work schedule. Im sure you cna work with your boss to change up your schedule to work a condensed work week to allow you to go to school and work full time.

If you wife will support you in the major career change she will definitly support you keeping the job and going to school. It will be hard hardly ever being home while you in school but it will out wiegh the benefits in the end.

BTW, Yeha got married over a month ago and its been rough but she fully supports me nad we moved 2 states over and back in with our folks so I can go to school.

true test of love and she is still sticking with me.
