Pivoting from machine operator to something new (update)

    After 5 years as a machine operator I am thinking about moving into a different field. It has been a long 14 weeks. I have good customer skills and I am comfortable with spreadsheets. Did you take a pay cut?

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

    I took a small pay cut for a year, and it was worth it for the growth afterwards.
