I made this thread last night, but didn't get much of an answer. Thanks to the one guy that did, but wanted to know of a more permanent no-degree job.
What do people who are in their mid to late 20s do for work? What do you guys do? What do you guys do for living a large city?
A little back story about me is that I'm releasing from the army soon, and I want to live in the city for a year or so before settling for a permanent career in policing. But before that happens I want to experience some freedom before being settled into another lifestyle. I've lived in the city for the majority of my life, but that was when I was in school(up to highschool) long ago before being stuck in a small town mostly filled with military. What I'm really trying to get out of this is meeting different personalities and exposing myself to new living environments. I want to grow as a person. The army was great, but the environment doesn't promote diversity, and I expect much the same with policing. I'm not trying to do this to become a better cop, or put myself further in a career. I just want to enlighten myself with the rest of the world.
Anyone?

Now that you're out of the Army, try a freelance career as a great way of making your money while being your own boss, and meeting a lot of interesting folk. If you develop basic skills in a trade like carpentry, you'll end up being invited into the homes of people from all works of life as a respected craftsman. Everyone from prince to pauper needs a carpenter from time to time, so you'll end up experiencing the whole spectrum of city residents.

Nononono, don't spread that carpentry stuff here mate, I'm looking for a white-collar/pink-collar work that doesn't necessarily have to profitable. I want to expand my experiences with something different. Plus carpentry in my city is heavily unionized, and competitive, requiring years of experience before being taken into a union. On top of that I had a friend ditch the idea all together because his union couldn't find him work-work going to senior members.
I was thinking being a bank clerk, but open to other suggestions.
