"I think this is a great idea and hope idealist.org will prove to be a valuable resource for finding meaningful employment. I've spent my adult life just earning a paycheck, trading hours, days, weeks, months, years for money. I would still like to get paid, I'm sure my kids would rather prefer it as well, but I'm no longer willing to sell my life to just any old bidder."

Description:
I was laid off from an interesting, but not very Meaningful job a few weeks before my 40th birthday and am taking this opportunity to make a career change. I've worked primarily as a deskside technician, primarily in law firms and in the government, for the last decade. While I enjoy the work, it doesn't help me answer the question, "Why am I getting out of bed today?" I want more than just a paycheck. I want my work to matter.
