Changing careers at 4 years into a job, is it realistic? (Buffalo)

After 4 years as a hotel front-desk agent I am thinking about moving into a different field. My family is supportive but nervous.

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 13 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
