Heres all u need to know ablout the service sector...\n\nThe tertiary sector of industry (also known as the service sector or the service industry) is one of the three main industrial categories of a developed economy, the others being the secondary industry (manufacturing), and primary industry (extraction such as mining, agriculture and fishing). Services are defined in conventional economic literature as "intangible goods". According to some economists, the service tends to be wealth consuming, whereas manufacturing is wealth producing.[1] Sir Keith Joseph in his lecture Monetarism IS Not Enough, contrasted wealth producing sectors in an economy such as manufacturing with the service sector which tends to be a wealth consuming sector. He contended that an economy declines as its wealth producing sector begins to shrink. [2]\n\nThe tertiary sector of industry involves the provision of services to businesses as well as final consumers. Services may involve the transport, distribution and sale of goods from producer to a consumer as may happen in wholesaling and retailing, or may involve the provision of a service, such as in pest control or entertainment. Goods may be transformed in the process of providing a service, as happens in the restaurant industry. However, the focus is on people interacting with people and serving the customer rather than transforming physical goods. Since the 1960s, there has been a substantial shift from the other two industry sectors to the Tertiary Sector in industrialised countries. The service sector consists of the "soft" parts of the economy such as insurance, government, tourism, banking, retail and education. In soft sector employment, people use time to deploy knowledge assets, collaboration assets, and process-engagement to create productivity (effectiveness), performance improvement potential (potential) and sustainability. Typically the output of this time is content (information), service, attention, advice, experiences, and/or discussion (aka, "intangible goods"). Other examples of service sector employment include:\n\n    * Franchising\n    * Restaurants\n    * Retailing\n    * Entertainment, including the Record industry, Music industry, Radio, Television and Movies.\n    * News media\n    * Leisure industry / hotels\n    * Consulting\n    * Transport\n    * Healthcare / hospitals\n\nPublic utilities are often considered part of the tertiary sector as they provide services to people, while creating the utility's infrastructure is often considered part of the secondary sector, even though the same business may be involved in both aspects of the operation.\nGDP Composition By Sector and Labour Force By Occupation\nEnlarge\nGDP Composition By Sector and Labour Force By Occupation\n\nEconomies tend to follow a developmental progression that takes them from a heavy reliance on agriculture and mining, toward the development of industry (e.g. automobiles, textiles, shipbuilding, steel) and finally toward a more service based structure. Whereas the first economy to follow this path in the modern world was the United Kingdom, the speed at which other economies have later made the transition to service-based, sometimes called post-industrial, has accelerated over time.\n\nThe term service economy, in contrast, refers to a model wherein as much economic activity as possible is treated as a service. For example IBM treats its business as a service business. Although it still manufactures high-end computers, it sees the physical goods as a small part of the "business solutions" industry. They have found that the price elasticity of demand for "business solutions" is much less elastic than for hardware. There has been a corresponding shift to a subscription pricing model. Rather than receiving a single payment for a piece of manufactured equipment,many manufacturers are now receiving a steady stream of revenue for ongoing contracts.\n\nManufac

It depends on what other fields you are interested in: research, teaching, consulting, etc... That question is too broad. What are your interests?

Go for a degree in business studies or tourism.

Giving service to others: see something that needs done (weeding a garden, picking up trash...) and doing it without being asked to.  Doing something without expecting renumeration.  Good luck

These are guesses only ..... to the first question I would guess "services" - think education, health care, travel, food industry, hotels, tourism, etc.\n\nTo the second question I would guess analyzing facts - that makes most sense to me.  \n\nHope this helps.

The course of study costs too much in time, money and effort to study anything but what interests you most. If you enjoy all three of these equally, I'd go with marketing, because it will give you the broadest education in business.

Even with a concentration in marketing, the number of jobs you would be qualified for are too numerous to list here.  Anything related to services, like insurance, financial planning, banking, are available.  If you can intern with a couple of firms during your summers, you can get great experience and learn what fields you like and which ones you don't.

Perhaps immigration may be an interesting possibility? \n\nHave you done much travelling? Maybe you could take an extended vacation and do some sight seeing? \n\nAre you interested in opening a shop or a pub or maybe selling things online? \n\nIf you're open to a really radical change, you could consider fostering children, on a short or long term basis :) Or fostering animals! \n\nHave you got any ambitions that you might like to fulfil, such as writing a novel? \n\nGood luck to both of you, I hope you can find something to enjoy!

If you haven't already gotten your Masters or PhD (because you sound like you're certainly qualified to do so), I would suggest a part time career solution. Go overseas and volunteer with an NGO for a while. There, you will probably be able to get some hands-on experience, as well as a feel for the political and social issues at rift in the area. All this will look great on a resume and could lead to a very prosperous career in research in the future.

Counseling is clearly one option.  Also, there are places where your background would be great for Human Resources Department.  You might also see how you fit with marketing and so on.  A lot of it will have to do with your interests other than your degree, where your degree is just a bonus, since your degree (presumably a bachelor's) is one that is normally a preliminary to a higher degree in professions like researcher and such.  You would probably do well as a research assistant in social research, including marketing.\n\nIf I were you, I'd not write off the idea of taking a higher degree, and you could make money as a teaching assistant or junior counselor in the undergraduate program while you pursue that higher degree.  I guess we are back to what really interests you.  \n\nThe two great divisions in social sciences generally are clinical and research.  If clinical, what sort of clients would you like to serve: children, elderly, single parents, the poor, handicapped, etc.?  If research, what sort of topics?

I have so functioned for many formal programs.  The way to begin is to take the first step of writing down what you believe are the important points to be covered, organizations to be represented, people to be honored and so forth.  Take it one step at a time.  One suggestion for you would be to look up what was done in some of the previous years on special occasions for your city.  That can give you a goldmine of information and a battle plan, as it were.
