I actually am working im another profession currently and am exploring others. Through my undergraduate degree, I'm a data analyst and alhumdulillah didn't have to take out a loan for this.
However, ive worked as a manager, a coordinator, a data analyst, and did computer science straight out of undergraduate. But to be honest, I've just been miserable in most of these jobs. A desk job is not something for me. Even right now im at work but for the life of me I hate doing it and just surfing on reddit instead.
I've worked at a hospital as a data analyst and interacted with my physicians and see what they do day to day. I honestly believe that is my calling.
Indeed my Akhira is more important than the dunya, but I honestly cannot see myself staying sane in my current profession for the next 40 years of my life.
Thank you for being concerned for a brother in Islam. May Allah SWT reward you.
