What does an office-based logistics specialist do every day?
Hi! My name is Anya, I'm a high school student in 9th grade and I'm exploring logistics as a possible future career. My strongest subjects are math and English, and I really enjoy structured office work with clear tasks, documents, and planning. I don't enjoy sales or constant communication with clients. I would like to understand what a real working day of an office-based logistics specialist looks like: what tasks you usually do during the day, how much of the work is related to documents and working on a computer, how much communication is involved and what kind of communication it usually is, and what you personally like and dislike about this job. Thank you very much for sharing your real experience.
How can I land on a major, when my interests are all over the place?
I started undergrad as a biology major but don't feel confident with my choice since I have a lot of interest in finance. I have recently started taking more classes based off topics I just find interesting in order to help narrow it down, but I feel like the choice keeps getting harder the more I learn about both finance and healthcare. Its spring semester of my second year of college and I feel I'm quickly losing time to make a choice.

Life beyond high-school
Life beyond high-school I am currently a junior in high-school and they weren't lying when they said junior year would be a tough year. It's not too, too, bad but ap biology is kicking my behind right now. On top of that I'm not sure of what I would like to do after high-school. I know that I'm going to the army reserves but for college I'm very undecided. I am strongly thinking the medical field but I'm undecided which specialty. Before I wanted to be a pediatrician, I love kids but do I want to make it a profession taking care of kids? Im not sure myself. I'm more interested in behavior and the mind(minus surgery). I was thinking psychiatry, but even then I'm not too sure. I think i may need one on one shadowing with individuals in these fields before deciding on a decision. Any advice for me will be greatly appreciated.
