The "no college degree" part is probably why it was doable, college at this point is a literal scam, no matter what you go in for. I spent 4 years getting a stem degree, no partying, graduated cum laude, and couldnt get anything for like 3 months after I graduated, got a gig at a local tech startup that payed barely above minimum wage, and quit because they didnt provide any actual training or mentoring (all the other guys had the same level of experience as me), and essentially havent been able to find full time work in my field since, because theyre all either looking for people currently *in* college (which I got screwed out of because the pandemic happened right in the middle of my college) or just hiring jeets for the entry level jobs.

It’s definitely helped me in my 20’s. I’m trying to do an electrician apprenticeship now hopefully for the rest of my career (to get outta trucking). But I just have a lotta drive. ConPro has helped a lot for advice and direction over the years.
