Well, I went from Brick Mason 2 years to US Army 2 years to Loss Prevention Security 1 year. Started school during security. Went to school 2 years for business computer programming and Micro-Computer Technology. Completed but didn't walk. Became a 2nd shift supervisor (no computers involved LOL) in a factory that made buttons (fascinating but salary cap because of location of factory). Sold clothes out of my car and later in the front yard of a busy street to make more money. Then started selling other stuff too. (always been a hustler type). Then tried selling as a job, Water Purification Systems, to Kirby Vacuums, didn't like the scripts.
Decided to go to truck driving school to get out of my environment so that i could change some bad habits.
This what I been looking for! Wow, wish I had done it straight out of school. Been wasting my time as far as being content with a job. But as far as all that I have learned, I guess it would be foolish to regret anything that I have done. I tend to get all that I can from everything that I do so I call it a waste on a superficial level.
Transitioning from one to another is not an issue, don't worry about what the job is classified as. Find out what the description is and see if that matches your desire and your monetary needs.
With trucking, I like to drive, it's a lot of freedom, the money is comparable to most degreed jobs, if I chose I can actually start my own company. Well actually I bought two trucks already at 2 different times. But in trucking you can go deeper than that if you wish in several different directions. I travel the country for free. (actually I get paid to travel the country, hello)
I never learned as much history in school as I do driving across country. Well, I probably just didn't pay attention cause when I asked the teacher how could apply history to my life's future instead of responding like an adult he blew the question off and I was pretty serious.
Anyway. Was curious, what type of work are you thinking about doing and what type of work will you be leaving. Sorry for writing the book.
Later.
