What do you currently do... and what are you planning to do... ? [if you don't mind me asking... and feel free to tell me to piss off and stop being nosey if you like lol].

I'm having trouble finding work. I can't get into administration, because I took so many years out to be home with the kids. I can't get into unskilled work because of my qualifications. Employers say I'm 'over qualified'.. which I think is bull. At the moment I'm volunteering in a charity shop so I can say that I have 'retail experience'. There's usually loads of retail jobs but they always want experience, so I figure this might be the way to go.

I could probably make more money in an office, but I'd need to go to college and essentially do the same stuff I've already done just so it's up to date. :/

I'd possibly get college paid for me at the moment, because my husband doesn't earn that much, so our family income would qualify us for fee waivers or whatever, but I don't know if that's the right road to take either.
