Oct. 6, 2004 — -- Careers are often as much about the things we decide not to do as they are about the things we do. Let's begin with FORK IN YOUR CAREER's e-mail to Workover:

"I'm unemployed and not sure how to proceed. For the last ten years or so I've worked at home as a freelance writer. My preference would be to do more writing, but writing projects are hard to get. Before turning to writing full-time, I worked in a number of museums and nonprofits. I have a lot of experience in management, program planning, project direction, fund-raising and generating earned income all skills that would be valuable to any nonprofit organization. I've also started applying for secretarial jobs just to get some kind of income. Frankly, I'm not having a lot of success anywhere."
