The best options would be looking for apprenticeships in different trades.

You mean like becoming a carpenter?

Editado por Britton: 5/16/2016 10:42:43 PMYes. Trades actually pay well, but they require you learn a skill, so many still have apprentiicship programs where you simply go to work for a % of what a journeyman makes, for a certain amount of time with certain tasks to complete or benchmarks to hit, and over time your pay increases until you're making journeyman rates. These are often also Union jobs. Once I finish the apprenticeship I'm in I'll be making over $30/hr.

30 per hour is pretty good. How long do they have to go through these programs before they can start workign and making money?

Sounds perfect for someone who can't afford school.

[quote]Yup. [spoiler]if anyone is interested just ask and I'll give ya some resources.[/spoiler][/quote] I'm interested. I plan on going to school but might as well know about this just in case it doesn't pan out.
-
It's pretty simple. Google "-your state- apprenticeship programs" They way they work is that they are almost all Union jobs. So as an apprentice you come on for about 50-60% of a journeymens wage, wages for a journeymen in the different trades often exceeds $30/hr, and you work toward becoming a journeyman in your chosen field through on the job training and some light bookwork. They can be choosy but as long as you don't have a criminal record or any other obvious issues it's often no sweat.

Awesome. I appreciate it.
-
I plan on getting to into culinary. My back can't handle hardcore physical labor like tiling floors and stuff like that.
-
Dude if your tall, culinary is NOT the way to go. They make those chef tables for midgets.

Good thing I'm not very tall.
