Yeah, that whole taking a break thing usually doesn't help people much lol. I'm fairly good with computers too but computer science was just to intensive for me. I couldn't handle the math requirement or the programming. I learned that I much prefer working on the hardware end, tech work (IT). I can build and fix but no programming. Go figure, I wasted 2 years just to switch majors to psychology and I'm much happier now. Bottom line, make sure you are happy with the choice, it is your life. The government is a good idea since it is a secure job and pay can be good but.....its the government. Not the most pleasant of places to work. You have to deal with idiots of all shapes and sizes lol. I would know, my mom has been in for almost 30 years now and I've had to help her through a lot of shit.
