LPT I need ideas for what I should pursue in my free time, I’m 24.

Submitted by Soul-House1 t3_11d1spx in LifeProTips

Hi, long story short I started a job where I work 3 12s at the beginning of the week. And want ideas for what I should pursue on my days off. I do need extra money but also want to better my situation. I only have a biology associates degree. I have the comptia A+ certificate for IT work but have been teaching myself web development a bit. I just need ideas for careers I can get into or jobs that would be good to improve my situation in the long run, thank you.

3 12s? Nurse-ish?

Congrats on the Biology degree!

It sounds like you have some experience in the IT field. In that case, look for public sector jobs in IT and Media Relations.

Bro look up stuff about overemployment. My cousin works 3 IT jobs and rakes in over $400k a year. I spoke to this guy for a company that sold me a software program for one of my companies. I don't want to say the name because I don't want to get him in trouble, but he told me he also makes over $300k working for multiple IT jobs. I think IT is the way to go, luckily I invested well and have multiple sources of income, but if I had to start from scratch today, I would go into Software Engineering. Also don't knock on learning a trade welding and electrical coming handy a lot in life. Heck if you have the opportunity get your CDL or look into heavy machinery operating those are always in demand and pay well. A CDL is so diverse beyond just being a trucker.

Healthcare IT!! Always in demand, and you have background/passion for both. Clearly this is a path you should explore!

Learn to blacksmith or some badass kitchen witchcraft called cooking\baking. Leather working or garment making are useful too.

Hey, you can also try to learn Robotics engineering that's the concept which will be bumming in next year, so it's great to learn about Robotics

How do I get into IT, I graduated a dental hygiene program but my license will take over six months before allowing me employment and I did to much school to be a dental assistant at $14 an hour…
