| | | I've been around the career field. Spent my first 10 years in the workforce as a retail drone. That is a soul-crushing field to be in, so I eventually began work at an auto parts retailer's warehouse. That wasn't too bad, except the hours were "5 AM until whenever you're done" which could be 10 AM or it could be 8pm. Hard to plan ANYTHING around that kind of schedule and there were people way younger than me blowing out knees and backs. When we were presented with an opportunity to move states with a better job offer, we took it. It was a $5/hr increase in pay for my hubs, a $2/hr decrease for me at first, but the opportunity for both of us to make better than where we were currently. I had always wanted to get into paint and auto body, so here was a chance to work up towards that. That didn't happen for a combo of reasons. A manager (who didn't know shit about fuck when it came to cars) didn't like that I corrected him and hurt his ego. I refused to brown nose him, so we butted heads. It led to me getting held off on a promotion I very much deserved and eventually I got fired over some REAL bs. But I still had hopes for paint and body, so I found a shop that said they were willing to train an apprentice. What I instead found was two LOUDLY sexist body techs who "won't pass up on money to waste time" training me, a $10/hr wage to drive 2 hours round trip, an owner who was very loudly racist (like...in public...to folks who came into the shop...uncomfortably so). Between that and the tech who was supposed to train me constantly telling me that "women are the reason we're in business in the first place", I left. COVID hit and I kinda noodled around with some video editing stuff and selling craft and baked goods. We got a 3D printer, so I started teaching myself how to make my own designs, which got me some freelance work. I also work part time with an auction.
