2. I pursue my passion regardless

If food manufacturing is your passion, just do it, regardless of whether there is a job for you. That's what I did. I took temp jobs to survive until I finally got a job in my field.

Looking back though, I wish I could have just lived with my parents until I found the best job. It would have been better if someone could have just paid for my room and board for however many years it took until I found the perfect job. That's what alot of people do, and I am jealous of them, but I never had anyone to take care of me, so I had to get a survival job and creep my way up the career ladder very slowly. Having nobody to support me in any way had devastating effects, but whatever.
