    Farm work can be labor intensive and according to Adrian..."Well, I want to avoid working in a labor intensive job like what I did at walmart, or else I'll just quit in a few months like what I did."

    Adrian...if you were offered a somewhat well paying job, one that would allow you to live on your own in another state...would you take advantage of that offer? Are you ready to leave the nest and strike out on your own? I ask because I'm getting the feeling that you're comfortable where you are and leaving home, at this point, might not be an option for you. That would eliminate the military and travel when both would, in fact, be great experiences for you.

      I have a suggestion, an idea that came to me while posting in the Pseudophrine Menace thread...

      ...Perhaps you could solicit and secure a contract with Longs and all the other Pharmacies, and create a database for all of us NyQuil, Sudafed purchasers! (sarcasm...I'm sick, and grouchy!).

        Okay no labor intensive work and the comfort of where he is leaves only one viable option left...DAY TRADING on the internet!


        You get to stay home, stay with your parents, no BREATH OF FRESH AIR (meaning no pushing carts in the sun or rain), you get to toil on your computer all day long in your boxers and make money!
        Life is what you make of it...so please read the instructions carefully.

            AAAAAAAAACCCK! Don't listen to Craig, Adrian. He was just kidding. Really. Honest injun!!! Craig is probably one who can get away with day trading without bankrupting his family but it definitely isn't for the faint of heart...or those with no knowledge!

            That said, when I have time on my hands, I'd love to play with $100. just to see what I can do with it...if anything! But first I need to read, read and read some more! And that takes time.

              heck it can't be worse than going to Las Vegas. How many of us really know how to gamble? Most of us come back with empty pockets and a maxed out credit card(s).

                I've been to LV less than a handful of times but I NEVER lost more than $5. during any, one visit. O'course, that's all I allowed myself to play with! More often than not I won a few bucks via the slots or blackjack. Was always fun but, for me, the fun woulda ceased with bigger stakes. I came home with $40. once and I was thrilled! My boyfriend told me I was very low maintenance! Smart boyfriend. Shoulda kept him!

                      As long as he's not upside down on the loan.

                        That's true. I'd still sell the car for what he can, and buy an older car (like what he had) own it outright and use what would have been monthly car payments and insurance costs for investment purposes.

                          UPDATE!

                          I just set an appointment for an interview for tomorrow around noon time for a computer tech/office helper position. The interview will be in Schofield, and if I do get it, then it'll be killing two birds with one stone because I can hopefully advertise my Mom's embroidery business there.
                          How'd I get so white and nerdy?

                            Pssst...Adrian. If you get the job, don't be advertising your Mom's business too openly. Most businesses don't like having their employees moonlighting for other companies while they are supposedly on the job.

                              By some chance, I stumbled onto their website tonight. The company's name is Progressive Computer Services with their main branch on Dillingham, and of course a location in Schofield - where tomorrow's interview is scheduled to take place.

                              So basically, it looks like it'll be just like working at my current job.

                                Not quite like the little storefront you currently work at. These guys have been around since 1992 and they also are government subcontractors so they probably aren't going to be quite as "casual".
