Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Went to a meeting so bad I walked out.

The lesson wad "active listening". I knew I wawas in for a treat when I found out I'd get to listen to a room full of narcissists tell everyone how bad they were at active listening for an hour straight.

Each one of them was stopped by the "shut the fuck up already" timer.

I'm in a really bad place. I haven't used, at least.
 
Went into the last meeting crying.

Found a dude that's a spitting image of me, mixed with Carl, my friend that passed.

Was very very good. Everyone has insightful stuff to say at that one. Kept my mouth shut till the end, calmed down when someone said if that's it, then that's it, it's over and you find something else. No point in dwelling. It's a waste of resources and your problem is still there.
 
For the love of God of if you have career ideas, I'm all for them.

I can no longer retire in ten years. I'm gong to at least try to be happy with this. Anything that keeps me mentally occupied, will lead me to be in company with female residential clients, pays.. The better the better. Not nine to five I a cubicle


Ideas:

Personal trainer
My accounting business, still.
Sales manager for place that gives second chances to cons.
Military. I get in, high ranking, and three years later I look great on paper.

Criticism? Ideas?

If you want a career that keeps you on your feet, lets you use your brain (a lot), and basically prevents you from being in an office for long stretches, I recommend taking a look at journalism. It's hard as fuck to get into, but if you are smart, can write, are relatively social, and can paint narratives it's great. The more versatile you can be - i.e., learning to cover sports, politics, international affairs, business, etc. - the better. I have a friend that works for a fairly large midwestern paper, is only 26, and has gotten arrested before. So it's definitely something you'll be able to do if you set your mind on it.

Good on all of those but isn't it impossible to get paid? Like I opened for maroon five and I'm not pursuing a music career..

It depends on how much you're looking to get paid. If you find an actual journalism job you get a salary, but you won't be making bank for another fifteen-twenty years, and that's if you do everything right along the way. If you want to be making $100,000+ per year ten years from now, then no, journalism is probably not the right career for you.
 
At this point the bare min is 40k in sd money
 
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think I'm pretty much.. Done. Idk.

I think my career is over, I have student loans I'll never be able to pay back subsequently, ava I'll probably see a month of time.

Anything I do seems pointless.

Why finish these last two classes? Why go to the gym? Yo look pretty fur jail? Why date when I'm going away?

I'm dying for a escape. Now I want to get high. Get away from this temporarily at least.

Dave whenever you feel this way just remember... THE CAVS ARE WORLD CHAMPS BABY!
 
Garbage man.
I want to say that's a government job, so sadly, no way for me, even to pick up garbage.

I'm genuinely searching. I'm asking anyone and everyone, board included, if you know of industries that I will still be able to work, please let me know.

Yes plumber, electrician, those are great ideas. I'm not above anything.

At this point the military is looking like an incredible option

Try a factory job. If you can pass a current piss test you should be ok (something like one of the big 3 (Ford, Chevy) or some other type of manufacturing job (Plastics, machining etc).

I don't have much a shot performing the same task 400 times a day
