well honestly.. if i was gonna go to school and try to get a "career" id look at the medical shit..

all the technicians and support staff at hospitals gets breaded. and they dont do shit.
like the transporters. all they do is push patients around from floor to floor in beds or wheelchairs..

i was laid out for a month and i peeped game. theres a few jobs that are cake once you get certified.

Just get a fucking job and shut the fuck up.

You can flip burgers and you'll be making more than none. Unless of course your shoulder won't allow you to pick up a spatula.

2. Software Engineer

Education: Certification or higher

Average Annual Earnings: $85,430

What doesn't run on a computer these days? These computer applications in our daily lives all need software and engineers to develop and program them. Software engineering jobs are expected to grow 21% by 2018, much faster than other sectors. A bachelor's degree will get you the best opportunities and pay, although certification or an associate's degree will be enough if you can prove you have the skills to do the job - making software engineering a great field for those changing careers or starting out.

3. Machinist

Education: On-the-job training

Average Annual Earnings: $38,940 and up

Few people grow up wanting to be a machinist, but it's a great field for those looking to enter the job market with little education. Many employers looking for experienced fabricators are having such a hard time finding qualified applicants that on-the-job training and training programs have grown for machinists. Pay is modest for those entering field, but grows with experience, making it a good place to grow a career.

6. Industrial Hygienist

Education: On-the-job training and/or certification

Average Annual Earnings: $45,360

Lead, mold and asbestos are all bad for our health, so removal of these toxic substances is vital. Industrial hygienists are the experienced professionals tasked with the dirty job of removing environmental hazards, and employers are on the hunt for qualified applicants.

Most education is gained from on-the-job training, although some colleges offer certification in the field. Jobs for industrial hygienists are expected to increase by 14% by 2018; top-earning professionals average over $73,000 in annual pay, making this a lucrative career path if you're lacking a college degree.

go to a 4 year college and get financial aid that way you won't be broke. do work study and shit. trust me going to a 4 year college will help you more than a quick school and they'll give you financial aid if you're not rich. if you gotta start at community college they'll give you fin. aid too.

If you have an honarable discharge, they have that new GI Bill that will also give you BHS if you are going to school full time, plus your settlement, you should be set.

First off, props on putting your family first.

You need to think about what you would like to do. These schools arent cheap. If I were to go to school, it would be in the auto field (UTI or Wyotech) because cars are ALWAYS going to break down and I love cars. You could also get side gigs from family and friends. Undercut what shops charge, and people will line up.

but theres always wyotech.
my boy is a mechanic and his boss told him that most companies dont fuck with people who graduated from wyotech. My cousin graduated from wyotech and the only job he landed was delivering parts to independently owned garages who specializes in certain vehicles.

best bet is to find someone who already has a job in a field your interested in, get certified and have them hook you up. In this economy, its hard to land a gig because they rather hire people that have been laid off, have 2-5 years experience and get paid less than what they were making before this economy was fucked. Rather than hiring a newly graduate with no experience.

I know some people who finished nursing and still cant find a job unless they move somewhere else.
