Career path

Most of you know that I don't have a job. I'm trying to plan something for when I'm going to be forced to take care of everyone. Dad's health is steadily getting worse and I'm getting nerve wracked about it. When things go awry...I need to have a backup plan in place. Here's a taste of my skillsets.
  • I can repair or replace computer hardware.
  • I can lay ceramic tile and marble.
  • I have a talent for graphics design.
  • I am a decent carpenter.
  • I was a child care counselor.
  • I know electronics. (circuitry/wiring/soldering)
  • I was a draftsman.
  • I'm versed in web design.
  • I was a powder coater.
  • I was a maintenance man for a school and orphanage also in the Navy.
  • I have been a janitor.
  • I've been a political activist.
  • I drew blueprints for an architect.
  • I am well versed in networking and computer systems.
  • I've been a system administrator.
  • I also stacked product and loaded trucks for a large food distributor.
  • I can estimate construction jobs.
  • I've been a building supervisor for a construction company.
  • I'm a great handyman.
  • I worked on missile guidance systems, navigation, RADAR, communications and instrumentation.
As you can tell, I have a wide range of interests and skills. None of them jump out and hold my attention for long. I get bored way too easily. I like a challenge and to learn new things constantly. If anybody knows of a career that keeps changing every 3-4 months...I'd love to know about it. For now, I have to try to work from home so that I can take care of an ailing father. Soon, I've got to get busy and find a career that isn't stagnant so I won't be dreading going to work daily. I enjoy graphic design but don't have any experience other than for myself.
I have the tools and skills to work on your computer from my home as long as your computer can boot and have internet connectivity. Trey could certainly stand to gain from the income too. Anyway, just thinking out loud..or actually in type....Peace!
