Currently working a job that isn't going to lead into anything, curious as to see if anyone can give some input on something more career like. Right. Ow doing warehouse , almost 27. I went to school for first year metal fabrication but didn't end up liking the trade. Thinking about maybe landscaping but unsure... not the brightest tool in the crayon box so leaning towards more labor related work.

Thanks for any input m8s

Start a landscaping company, it's a lot easier than you think it is and there's definitely room for a 6 figure income

actually going to agree with turtol here but more regarding snow removal. depending on where you live, in canada i might add, if you live up north you cann make a killing with snow removal for residential houses.

know some people who do this and make a lot just charging up front fees for "if" scenarios. it sucks if it snows a lot, if it doesn't they are in the money.

100 houses at $150 per month from november to end of march is 5 months is 75k for 5 months. your overhead costs are mainly attributable to trucks and snow removal equipment and manpower but the trucks are one time cost and the manpower can be contracted at basically minimum wage.

Vouch. There is a TON of money in snow removal up north.

IMO, you don't have to be smart to make it through a 2 year associates degree program, and really through a 4 year bachelors degree program, but you definitely need to be dedicated and hard working.

Try seeing a career counselor that is actually trained in something like this as we can only give you suggestions of things we like.

If you want a career, you need to find something you at least somewhat like.
