Learn the trades! Everything from plumbing to mechanic all pay well and are almost recession proof jobs.
Can't be off shored
Now there is a high-paying job - plumber/mechanic on an off-shore oil rig.
For sure. I was wondering about those poor workers during Milton who live out there in the Gulf. Had to be scary AF.
I have to believe they only leave a skeleton crew during a hurricane. I would hope the rest were brought back to land before it hit.
Imagine being on an oil rig out in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico and it 0001 hrs and there is a klaxon horn blown and the following comes out:
"ATTENTION, ATTENTION, PLUMBER NEEDED ON DECK 3....SHITTER IS FULL."!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also learn to code. Then learn the basics of how computers and electronics work. Learn the basics of how networking works. Branch out from there. Like electronics? Learn board repair. Like coding? Learn 2 or more languages.
Don't forget Databases (any of them), web development,c# and C++ although C++ is used in networking, and development from front-end t0 backend!!!!!!!
true that. need someone to manage the social credit score database lol
AND a TWEEB doing the programming/database/database admin/web development/correcting errors...OOOOOH MY!!!!! Imagine what that would look like!!!!!
Talked with some of these types...THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THE ABOVE ENTAILS...I ask technical question(s) on usage of when/where something is used AND THE ANSWER IS: "I can just look it up on the INTERNET"!!!!!!!!
I told my bank yesterday that their website looked retarded and needed some fixes like taking out all the "goofy" crap like a FLOATING icon across the page(s)...I told the guy that people with cataracts won't be able to see the damn thing so why have it? He told me that the bank would contact me and let me test their system...when they made changes...
I agree, even though I have degrees and they paid off, if you start earning income 4 years before your peers and have no student loans, you are well ahead of the pack.
