And eventually I went on to get a masters degree whereupon I spent my whole working life in a career I hated & also wasn't particularly well suited for.

What I'd like to suggest to you is that work takes up so much of a person's life that doing something you hate simply isn't worth it. It's really unfortunate you let other people talk you out of majoring in what you loved. Go ahead & be resentful & mad... for a short while. But then dig down & figure out how best to get yourself back onto a track you can love again. (As I once heard it phrased: "No matter how far you've travelled down the wrong road... turn back!) Here's a link to an article, from PC's archives, that is I believe apropos:

So, You're Lost? The Advice You'd Never Expect

AWWW Thank you this made my day!!
