I quit high school mid grade 12 (was bored) and got a job designing and building display fixtures for a large dept store. Made $75 a week. Did that for almost 2 years. Quit that to go instole floor coverings, made good money but hated crawing around on peoples dirty floors (still have my tools). Went to work building basements for a summer, started working for the city building sidewalks and curbs when the guy I worked for ran out of jobs. Got layed off at freeze up and went to work hauling propane. Decided that wasn't the job for me when I was following a route map at 2am and I ran out of country road with 10,000 gals of propane strapped to my back. Tank shifted broke some lines and the automatic shutoff valves save me from being boiled alive at -40C. Went and wrote my GED right after that.
Started my present job 3 months later. I get to kick in peoples doors, break their windows and pour water all over everything they own. I'm a firefighter/first responder. Love my job and enjoy going to work. I get to retire in 3 years. Best advise is to find something you like to do and do it the best you can. |
