What are you going to do once high school is over?

As a teen hearing this question makes you ponder into a world of scary thoughts. You may think of siting behind a desk all day or laying sewage lines. After all, Your parents really want you to go to college. At this point you are freaking out because you don't think its right for you. Then you parents or family say something about someone else that makes 100,000 a year and you look into the job. Every job that you family recommends are either really labor intensive or require lots of schooling. There are all of these opportunity's out there and you just can't decide.

There are just some people that have their mind set for 1 job

These people are lucky because they don't have that questioning side in there mind. Your probably thinking why haven't you found a job that you would like to stick with fore ever. Some people use this to their advantage because they can get a head start on some of the things that are mandatory to have.

Trade School

Some people don't even know how to get started or they have a family member to help them out. The idea sounds great but you will never take the time and step up to the plate. Also some people can't even make it through the dogging that the higher up workers give them. Honest I am thinking about this my self but I am lost on how to start.

The People That Are satisfied

When going through high school you have some friends that have jobs, and you have friends that think that job is permanent. I am not docking any one for having a job, I just think people should do better for them selves. I have three friends that work at McDonald's and are not leaving any time soon.

Sort:  

I finished school at 18 year , some low quality electrician paper is al i got from al the government programming (schooling ) . So i started doing low tech jobs , and only from that point on i developed some skills . True job hopping , cause i do not sell my soul to the company i work at , i picked up a lot of tech skills .
Electrician , mechanic , truck builder , construction(site) welder are some of the functions i had at many company's . At this point in time (48 years now ) i program and run a laser cutting machine . Not the job i would have wanted coming straight from school . I started as a neon sign mechanic , free on the road placing sign's . I guess i have don a lot of job hopping to escape that feeling of enslavement .
Hanging around at Mac D is the worst thing to do . Just look at the age of Mac D workers . Most did not want lo leave but where made to leave , to old , to expensive .
Some advice to others while looking back , take a long trip , go backpack , enjoy freedom before your live as a worker . Go find yourself first , most of us is lost in government programming .

If you want a brighter future ? go and do better thing than you did before .
