I've been turning wrenches for most of my adult life but am trying my hand at insurance for the time being. I just got my insurance license and started as an agent in August. I thought it'd be nice working a desk job and now I'm not so sure haha. I'm really starting to miss working with my hands and am feeling the pay cut a bit as well.
Are you working with the public (selling to individuals) or working at an insurance company/broker? I’ve done both...currently working for a broker the last 8 years. It’s interesting, at least to me, but also can be challenging (people!).
