Associates AFTER Bachelor's Degree?

[bjcheung77]

Thanks everyone for your valuable input. I appreciate being able to come here for sound advice.
I am at a cross roads and thinking about a career change. I enjoy my position with my current employer. However, I am pretty much as far up as I can go here. Also, I am not very fulfilled working in manufacturing. Although I work in a management capacity, the job is mundane and not that difficult. I suppose I should not complain. My perspective would be completely different if I were similar in age and experience to the other managers.

I am the youngest manager on staff (just turned 30) :nopity:
Policies and procedures are outdated. The staff is reluctant to changes and the overall perspective here is "We do it this way because it's always been done this way..."

So, I figure I am young enough to bow out gracefully and seek other employment in a different industry...

My random thoughts about furthering my education all stem from this.
Now I am rambling ...thanks again

*sigh* I had the same type of feeling when I left my previous job of 7.5 years to this current one.
That was 8 years ago, I haven't looked back yet, but the thought of staying did (at that time).
My suggestion is to find a better match in the interim before you actually quit, have something lined up first.

It may not be a better paying job, but as you are happier, you can try to move up to a higher position then, like middle management.
Especially when you've got a Bachelors and have MBA in progress within your resume/CV, it should be easier to obtain than before.
Once you reach middle management and have been with the company for a few years, see if there are upper management positions open.
