Five years ago I was taking a paralegal class.  I finished the course, but did not have any intention of legal field as I know a lot of CEOs are non practicing attorneys.  I was looking to round out my resume with more legal experience and had some thoguhts of law school.  I'm now a legal assistant to two in house assistant general counsels and over all life is good.  Nice office, very short commute, gym access, and challenging positiion.  It's not perfect, but then is any job? 
Is it exactly where I thought I would be, no.  My goal was supporting the CEO and only the CEO or maybe CEO and one other person.  I've been in my current position almost four years which is longer than my previous recent positions (averaging about two years) and the boss that hired me left the company.  I'm adjusting to their style as they are adjusting to mine.  I have to remind myself life isn't all about the job.  Married many years to a wonderful man, happy home and heart - jobs will come and go.
