The Chameleon Worker?

[Braveheart]

teachers programming, financial analysts web designing, CPAs writing, secretaries stock trading, network administrators teaching, copywriters auditing, investment analysts nursing, sales managers interior designing?

is the job world changing? do you need to know more and acquire other skills to have the advantage, and do other jobs? in this very uncertain job market, do workers need to understand how the other jobs "work", and not end up jobless?

i see myself workign as an analyst till i'm 65. i don't have the VP-complex like most professionals. as my late uncle assured me: "there's always room for the good ones."

when a certain profession gets crowded, and the competition gets really fierce, or the industry starts faltering, even if you are really good, do you think that exploring "other jobs" is the way to go? should the future worker be multi-skilled, and can assume different responsibilities? will you, as a professional, still be marketable if you ever choose to exist in other fields? can a vp for finance teach english in china, if we, let's say, no longer need him?

i've had three major career changes, two of which required me to go back to school. the change(s) aren't so radical for professionals. a college degree is adaptable to at least two professions.

it's the rank&files and laborers who really have to be jerked back and forth to different fields. the movie "the full monty" isn't an exaggeration. you can switch from being steel mill worker into a bar stripper faster than you think.
