Changing careers at 9 years into a job, is it realistic? - 9 weeks in

My layoff made me rethink whether to stay in my field. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I have good customer skills and I am comfortable with spreadsheets. How did you start?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
