I did a year and then I left. Soon after that I actually met my wife.
Though |I will add that that year was one very important and formative year in my life. I’d say that even if you don’t end up being a priest it’s worth trying it out. It really helps you grow in yourself and gives you a chance to grow closer to the Lord. In many ways my year prepared me for my marriage and developed qualities in me that are vital to married life.

I also made some of my best friends in that year.
 
I’m currently in high school and discerning my vocation. Right now I’m leaning towards the priesthood, but if that isn’t where I’m called, what are good careers for devout Catholics? For any laypeople here, what careers do you have that are fun, challenging, rewarding, and/or helping you to live your faith? They can be within or outside of the Church.
The sky’s the limit bud. Unless you were thinking about officiating drive-thru weddings in Vegas. Don’t do that.
 
If you are in high school, talk to your career guidance counselor. They may have ideas for you. There’s a STRONG inventory you might take too which might help you figure out what fields you may find interesting.
