I have called around and spoken to the head of the department, after all it was him who suggested this educational route for me. I am not turned off by moving but, my husband has a great job here and has been with this company for 18yrs. I think this women just didn't like me much. I came back feeling defeated instead of holding a class schedule in hand. Its been bothering me all night I guess my confidence was shaken a bit. What bothers me is that perhaps this women is just telling me like it is and that I shouldn't waste anymore money on an advanced degree that may not pay off.
