Thanks for your response asiljoy!
1) I would rate my job satisfaction, 1-10, as a 3.5 to 4. When the money is good it's decent, and the work itself can be challenging and satisfying. But the stress, hours, and lack of certainty are getting to me. Whatever I decide to do, I plan to continue building my skills and working up in this job in the meantime. My boss and I have discussed my position, and the plan is to move me inside to a Manager of Tire Sales job, where I have some previous experience, in the next 12 months, depending on attrition/promotion of others I work with. This would be an almost lateral move money-wise, but would be much easier on me, and more stable. It's also the path required if I wanted to be a store manager. The potential for that exists around 4-5 years from now, but of course there are no guarantees. Their base is around 60k, plus bonuses.
2) I have no problem trying any type of work, and honestly that sort of thing sounds like a blessing to me at this point, especially if it would help me get FIRE'd faster.
3) That's a great question. It's something that I've considered carefully, and is part of the reason I'm planning to dip my toe into this plan with some online/night classes and see how I perform. There has always been a disconnect for me between school and my long term goals, mostly that I didn't have any, so it was hard to see the point. I chose a bullshit major because it sounded interesting, and mostly I was in college because "it's what you do." I'm hoping that since I finally have some concrete goals and direction in my life I can make some headway.
I have a couple of contacts who are or were accountants that I plan to e-mail after work today. I've also read some of the other threads on here about accounting/CPAs.
I'm trying to set up an interview with a career counselor at the local community college, but I'm having some trouble getting a hold of them. I may just have to show up over there and ask to talk to someone. I'm hoping that they can give me some good information about what jobs are available in my area, at what pay scales, that involve how much schooling, etc. as well as info about transferring for a bachelor's. I'll report back if I ever get anything useful out of them.
