Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Job

Anyone used or know of a career counseling type app or business that can help someone find a job they actually enjoy? Kinda done with doing jobs I hate and I don't want to jump into another one.

Thanks ahead of time. And bob brown GFY ahead of time.

If i was burned out, I’d prolly go work at a state park.

Or drive a bush hog for the county.

Used to think that was easy. Til i saw one dude with a side boom ditch cutter chop down a light pole. 🤪😂

Actually those don't sound half bad. I took this retail manager job to provide income while I help a bud build his insurance business. Long story short...people have behaved so badly and the company treats us like a rented porta pot.

So just thinking on my next step

If I was gonna embark on something else, it wouldn't be working for someone else. I would probably start my own lawn care business if I could figure out what to do during the winter.

Yup.

Less interaction with ppl the better.....

Company bragged loudly about making a billion in sales last year. Still setting new records. No bonuses or raises though. They say things are just too uncertain.

All them SOB’s buying those Heritage 22’s!!!!

Seriously, though, I hope you find something you enjoy, or can at least, tolerate.

My own fault. I quit college and started working in restaurants and worked my way up and then decided to do insurance and did it for 13 years and was getting awards but just saw so much corruption going on and I left. I took this job to have some income while I work on this insurance business but i just don't have the patience for the hateful and Democrat brainwashed public anymore.

Good luck with your search. In my experience, more people quit because of their manager than of the work.

Yep

Job placement services, head hunters, should be able to help. Give them you skill set, but stress your desire to branch out or use your skills in a field other than the one you're unhappy with.

I would think with restaurant experience, plus retail mgmt, that there might be all kinds of restaurant mgmt jobs available.

Down here in TX, they’re offering folks $80k plus to run a Braum’s (Ok/TX chain of ice cream/tiny grocer stores).

No way in hell I would go back to food. Was worse than what i do now by a lot.

Clearly you're a people person.

Requires patience.

I don't know how old you are or what your math skills are like but if I were 20 or 30 years younger I'd be here: CNC is the future of manufacturing. It's you and a machine.

41. Math skills...i can do it but its definitely not a strength

I know it sucks

Daddy doesn’t always leave us a 600 acre farm, some sakos and Co-Cola route.

Lol yep.

Give some consideration to the trades and the industries that support the trades. Just about every contractor and supply house needs help right now. Ever consider driving a truck. Lots of need for drivers right now. Give some consideration to driving a ready mix truck. Good pay, good benefits, and home every night.
