I know this might get a bit personal with people, so if you dont want to put employer just use the job area as job title, like janitor ect.

I’m trying to knock down 15 x 40 atleast.

There is a thread about this, not as in depth…
This is a horrible way to pick your career path! Salary may play a small role in what you do, but if you have to find something you like to do.
I have to seperate what I like to do from work, when what I like to do becomes work, it gets old fast.
Only thing I care about is $ signs, everyone has to do something.
Thats why I decided to grab some better schooling and get out of the shop before I’m dead at 50

This isn’t an attempt to brag, just posting the info to show that you don’t need to pay into the educational profiteering scam to get a decent wage.
