Default Re: What do you have to fall back on?

I'm working at a startup that manages online advertising campaigns for companies, family member got me in. Completely different industry, new enough that you aren't expected to have a specialized degree/years of real world experience, and the kind of job you can do from anywhere so hopefully I can keep doing it part time if/when I get recalled.

I didn't have a "real" backup before (I could have gone back to low level management at the call center I worked at in college, but there was no real future there). As long as I can stay up to date on the latest trends/tech/tools this is my new backup.
