I知 21 years old and looking for a job. I was recently laid off from working at the local electric Cooperative and I am looking for something new. I have the opportunity to start working at another cooperative here but I want to take this chance to travel somewhere new and work. I grew up working on a farm, graduated from University of Alaska Fairbanks in Aviation Maintence. I have an A&P Certificate, Class A CDL, I知 a fast learner and a hard worker. Let me know if you have anything.

Read today there are 7.1 million unfilled jobs. Good luck with your search. At least you want to work.

You didn't like the aviation industry?

I definitely enjoyed the aviation industry and these Co-Ops are good jobs but I just want to take this time to explore and have some new experiences before I get older and don稚 have the ability to move around freely.

Sounds like the world is your oyster. My advice would be to pick the location you want to move to, and look for work there. There's probably demand for long range truck drivers, that's one way to see lots of country and get paid to do it.

The Marines are always looking for a few good men. Only if you can hang. Go talk to an officer recruiter. You don't habe to make any commitments. Just talk. Tell him you want to fly.

Some advice for you young man, take the job you have a chance at there as good jobs are not out there. Wait for your vacation time, choose an area and visit it to satisfy your wanderlust. Then make your decision. As a friend of mine said about the North Dakota oil boom before the bust, "That is a young man's game" and he got old as a young man locating to that area. He is now a lineman.
Don't waste your youth chasing dreams. You do that when you earn enough at age 50 to retire. Get your seniority and save your money.

Home is where the heart is. Find your place. I was lucky to get a great job close to the swamp. swing shift sucks but it gives me the chance to give my kids the education so they do not need to do what I do. I passed on several jobs that would have paid a good bit more but I would have had to spend alot of time away from my family.

Search the world over, but, at some point there will be a girl that will steel your heart.

Would you rather regret the things that you did or things that you did not do? I regret the things that I did not do.

If you want to elevate your chance at a fulfilling military adventure, by all means check out the USAF. You don't have to be a Marine, you can do a lot better. whistle

That is one of the things I regret. I would have joined up but, it was 02 and my high school sweat heart preferred I be alive. Now I have 3 kids with her, I do not regret it. Hind sight being what it is. Forever in debt to those that have made this possible for me.

Thank you.

Whatever you decide,dont get stuck in a job that you don't like just for money.
Pick a job that you really like to do,and it will be easy for you to advance.
If your young enough try different jobs and don't be scared to walk away from them to find something better.

The USAF does have better planes. But at least you know when ours run out of hydraulic fluid. They just stop leaking. Lol.
