Tuition reimbursement sounds like a great program. Problem with my education is that it centers around a more creative/ subjective field. English degree, so I could probably be a teacher, but I hate public speaking, haha. Guess I'm one of those people who would rather die.
It's weird, I have had fiction stories published and yet can't find a job that suits my liking, or the few I've applied for that I'd want to do kind of dismiss me instantly. Usually want 3-5 years experience, which is hard to quantify in terms of writing quality. I personally weigh publsihed fiction greater than years in field, yet I understand companies decisions to not take chances on unproven applicants. Guess I'm just holding for a job I really want/ waiting to see how my creative writing efforts evolve over time. For now, I work a manual labor job which challenges neither body nor mind so as not to compromise my more lofty goals. Sure my boss would love to hear that....
