... wish i had gone to pharm school instead. Seems like a cool job.
I work at a hospital as an activities director and I hate my job.
Process technician. Pretty decent. Sometimes I imagine I had some real chill job with little to no responsibilities like working at the gas station where I used to work on the weekends. Realistically though, I just went with whatever. Unless you're real talented or you have an achievable goal in mind go for whatever seems alright.
I'm at uni doing Business put just got into the police force, so yeah about to start that shit

Dropped out of med school, worked as lab tech for vet school for 2 yrs, recently full time NEET on savings until school in fall. I think agricultural engineering will boom in the next 10 years with medical marijuana popping up across the US. That's a lot of facilities that need designing.

youre on the right path trust me. there will always be a demand for nurses but demand for pharmacists is cyclical especially in the cushier positions, and the jobs that do exist are no better than glorified cashiers.
>>680162540
I already deal with niggers quite a bit. A big part of why I want to be a cop over a paramedic is as a paramedic I have to deal with trash and their bullshit without being able to do anything unless police are there - as I am responsible for medical issues only. As a cop, I wouldn't have to take their shit when they go off on me, I'd just arrest their faggot asses and get a satisfaction boner.

The employees at a pizza place are some of the laziest fucks imaginable. And even if they're not, they're still retarded for working longer than it takes to find something else at a pizza place.

Grocery co-op (so no small business loan), I live in the South Bay of San Francisco bay area. There is a farmer's market around the corner from my house and they come every Saturday, but the nearest marketplace Sunday-Friday is 6 miles away. So we have a dead zone where you can't get food unless it is fried.
If I can lease a small storefront for .60c/sq ft, my rent would be about $1,300/month. I'd advertise it as a 6 day a week farmers market and make some decent cash.
TL;DR Wholefoods type co-op in an underserved community

OP try to keep yourself busy all the time, it shouldn't be with things you WANT to be busy with, perhaps things you hate and you will soon realise what you would so much rather want to spent your time doing for the rest of your life.
I realised during Gymnasium (high school for Murica) that I wanted to work in the engineering/physics industry, because I found out that it really entrigues me and I want to make something of my life. Not that I want to be a legendary physicist like those big names you study about. Would be cool, but I think I may be a little bit late for that, but you never know.
I just want to do something that pushes humanity forward in some sort of way. Elon Musk is a huge inspiration to me, because he does exactly that. No he's not my hero, but it's good to have something to strive towards.

It also doesn't apply very well to police jobs either.

I'd need to lawyer up initially, which would come out of pocket for me, and have them on stand by, and hire an accountant and tax guy (Me, I would pay myself to do that shit).

Veterinary Post Mortem Assistant. Only one position above me and it involves shit tons of paper work and standing in a lab all day sampling literal shit for worm eggs.
Would much rather be a Gamekeeper on a pheasant estate like im bloody well trained and qualified for. Niche market jobs are a bitch.
(Pic related, a ram we did a few months ago)
>>680171577
You just have to be able to get up here, work hard, have the ability to put up with a lot of shit, huge waves and freezing cold weather. And the pay isn't spectacular when you first start.
>>680157105
I do custom homes. Trying out for the stupid fucking Dallas Cowboys in a few months
>>680172925
did the ram make it?
>>680164323
Like commercial painting, painting houses and rooms etc etc

Is he okay?
studying to be an accountant in scotland, will probably move to london when I graduate

I always wanted to be a space doctor, but having to go through 10 years of medical school followed by 10 years in NASA was too long term for me.

Me now:
Royal Navy. Warfare Officer. Been in the Navy for 6 years but the process started 8 years ago as the waiting period was long. Getting promoted later this year which feels good considering I'm only 26 and finishing up part time degree in the meantime whilst ashore(extra chances of promotion).
Aiming to be Captain one day. If I can go higher even better.
What I wanted growing up:
Navy Fighter Pilot. Height fucked me over. Too tall for the aircraft which has a maximum of 6'2. I'm 6'6. Plus I guess it was good considering we currently have no aircraft carriers or the new aircraft bought from the US. My career would be stagnant now.
>>680172628
When I was working at the movie theater, it always used to be interesting to see what people smuggled past the front door "security".
>one guy wore a long trench coat and fedora and had a friend of his get into like a 69 upright position. With the trenchcoat on, he just looked like a tall fat neckbeard. Motherfucker snuck a person into the theater looking like the average /b/ browser.
>had another case where somebody called pizzahut from the theater and had them deliver to the back door. When I came to clean up after the movie was over, there were 4 large pizza boxes, a thing of breadsticks, a couple of coke liters, and i watched the delivery guy just straight up walk out the emergency exit
I'm studying Medicine, in 4th year already, but I wish I had studied Pharmacy or something related to managing businesses.

Have you ever heard of non-combat trades, the airforce, navy, or the reserves/national guard. I've been fixing engines in the army for 5 years and it's safer than working at a gas station in my opinion.
I sell dope. Actually got some fent of the Mexicans in right now. Some junkies are going to die most likely.
>>680172831
Never. Everybody buys cars. You come to us. It's all about taking care of your client these days. It is the highest paying career, and you don't need a degree

I never "need" to buy a car and I do enjoy the buying process when I can walk when the deal doesn't suit me. I don't like that fucked feeling you get though when dealers screw you in the trade in. I know you need to make a profit and all but WTF? Half the retail value? Can you explain that to me? Any tips for helping myself get the best deal on a used car?
>>680170054
Same
>>680175059
And it's the highest paying career eh.
>>680171096
Yeah Canadian forces have way better training than most american forces. I've worked with the Americans and most of them think so to. In Canada 'pie maker' isn't a fucking military trade
>>680159785
Not bad. Only problem is that you can't raise a family and live the dream
>source;dads a chef
>>680175992
Really? Time for me to go to America eh
>>680175059
How do you get into this?
>>680174894
In canada you pick your 3 favorite trades before you apply. If they are open and you get a good enough score on the aptitude test then you pick your favorite. If not then they will offer you the other trades. Then you have to spend years training so that you can apply to go overseas.
>>680175570
That's a whole thread on its own. If you are buying a 1-3 year old common car, there is not much price variance. Say you are looking at a 2015 Camry...lots of supply, prices are all about the same. A dealer will typically make 800-900 if we are lucky on a $14999 car. Instead of Camry, fill in the blank..fusion, Altima etc

Dental Hygienist
Great money, and I'm surrounded by hotties most of the day. Can't really complain.
dream job would have to be an actor, but the likely hood of becoming a successful actor almost non existent
>>680170737
Sounds smart anon. Good business sense.
I tried to convince my dad to open up his own soup kitchen/deli. He's a chef of 30-something years and one of the most talented i've seen. He could out-cook everywhere else. He had an investor and i would have gotten a rich family member to invest in him. I wrote out a business plan and broke things down. Gave him a list of BoH stuff. I told him if he answered all of it and made a plan for it i would do the rest
The plan was for I to get it started and get some sort of shares out of it to get some residual revenue while i went to university. Too bad he is lazy.

My Dental Hygienist is some old chinese guy who is really chill. Every year or so he gets a new smoking hot assistant.
Weird how so many of these Engineers and other professionals have GED level grammar.
Anyow, I'm a QRE at a Ford plant in MI, currently make $40/hr.
Wish I was an EE, they can make $200k+ at some of the companies around here.
>>680178067
I'm a guy as well, and don't really run into many other male hygienists, but yeah there are a lot of babes in this field. I also fucked several hotties in school. And the program was only 2 years. Not to mention you can technically go wherever you want when you're done because the demand is pretty high across the u.s. You just have to take the boards for the location you want to go to.
I am in a circus school.

4th year US allopathic med student here. Is it worth it? Hard to say yet, haven't seen any financial rewards yet. But I have a lot of family/friends who have finished residency in the last few years and they all make at LEAST $200k as attendings
Med school itself honestly was not that bad. People who bitch and moan about it are probably just doing it for attention. You have to have a good mind for science/math and care about helping sick people to at least SOME degree
That being said, the hardest part for me is yet to come.. residency really does suck balls.
Feel free to ask me anything.
Govt. official.

If you get the right career dat Federal retirement is sweet. My fellow retired SNCOs either don't have to work or have skate DoD/contracting/civil service/etc jobs.

>>680185450
Funeral homes are huge rip offs. My little brother died 2 years ago and we still can't get him a headstone cause the minimum charge is like 5 gs.
We have to pay people thousands of dollars to put my brothers body in the ground. Taking advantage of people when they are at they are worst.
Get fucked faggot.

You sound like a car commercial
>>680187667
do you personally believe that he needs a gravestone in order to move on/ go to heaven?
sry for the vage question; agnostic here
Check this out faggot. Get yourself through college with your first choice of career. Graduate and get a job. Go back to school and get a 2nd degree in what you actually wanted to do. The first degree is for your parents the 2nd one is for you. In my opinion get a teaching degree, fuck barely legals, then go back to school and become a professor. Pussy galore all dumb bitches give it up quick for a passing grade.
>>680189120
if you don't think he needs one for the afterlife then don't get him one. do you think that he would have wanted you to bankrupt yourself in order to give him a useless stone?
if not then don't get him one. unless your religion states that he needs a certain form of burial, then graveyards are for the living and not for the dead.
they give the relatives a place to grieve and to go and talk. graveyards are for the living.
the only place that you can connect with your brother is your heart. nowhere else.
don't ruin your life for him. do something he would be proud of. do something in his honour.
that way, he can make a difference even though he is no longer here.
through you
>>680189576
why?
just pick a thing/profession that you (kinda) like and do that.
over time you get better at it and you will earn more money.
also general tip (helped me): do every thing you can. even if you think that you won't like it. if you haven't done it: do it!
join some kind of group (music, theater, discussion etc.), go work abroad/somewhere else (tour around and work there (maybe for minimum wage but you will make experiences)). doesn't matter what: do it!
eventually you will find something that you like or you'll write a book on all the stuff you did in 40 years of finding yourself.
worst thing one can do (if you are miserable atm): stay put and don't change anything.

i like scuba diving, but im already too old for that.
>Im 33
Even if i were to "pursue my dream", scuba diving isnt gonna give me shit money wise.
At least not where i live.
Also, id need to invest literal thousands in training/equipment, but poorfag.
Same thing with music, which would be the other option. Tool old, cant expect to make money with music.
Still, I decided I wanted to study music when I was like 22, but i was too old by then and wasnt admited.
Has anyone here cammed for money? I'm considering it since I've been a leech for the past three years with no end in sight. I want out of this welfare cycle and actually earn money.
>>680192358
move to a tropical island and teach rich kids to scuba dive. Banks loan money, if you cant get a bank loan find investors. Your too old excuse is total bullshit. You can do whatever you want you're just too much of a pussy or a lazy cunt
