over here in canada, plumbers make around 90 bucks an hour, but then i guess you have to mind you wont mind deal with shit, literally, shit

i did applied for electrician, cause it seemed easy, the provincial power company here also pays you to relocate to different parts of the province to look after its equipments. but then the class was full so i applied to be an auto mech instead, i got 1st year (total of 4) done, but then i couldn't find a job as an apprentice (ppl want you to start as a wash boy), so i am in accounting now

see if the civilian side recognize your military's electrician training programs, i would suggest go into the military, cause for us canadian, you work for 20yrs and you are able to retire.

i was referring to starting your own business, like people phoned you up when their toilet exploded or something

have you considered firefighter/medic/nurse?

nurses are really in demand, and considering you are probably the only guy in a class of 26 other girls (that was the case for my school last year)

yeah if you want a nice job real quick go get a certificate or whatever for a nurse, they have a big shortage right now

you wish buddy, nurses have degrees, thats like at least 4 years of education for you

I will say electrician, just because the idea of treading in other peoples shit 5 days a week sound really displeasing.
