Lads, my life is entering a critical juncture and I need some serious advice.

Basically I have to choose between a job at Publix or on the water for a towboat company to occupy me for the next few years. The highlights of these careers are as follows:

Publix:
>close to home (Georgia)
>25-35 hours a week
>probably pays minimum wage
>some benefits
>stocking job, super pleb
>most likely can be integrated with the other shit jobs I'm currently doing

Towboat:
>based in Chicago
>three weeks on, three weeks off
>$122 dollars a day
>hard blue collar work
>only way to get there is flight or driving 12 hours
>full benefits

Seems to me like in comes down to either working Publix and enjoying my NEET hobbies at home or go on a boat and have a life-changing experience at the expense of comfort. Both also seem to yield the same benefits, pay and chances for advancement however.

Wat do?

Tugboat sounds like fun, I loved sailing and being on the water. Plus if it sucks, you can still go back to Publix
Blue-collar work feels pretty damn rewarding too

Towboat sounds more interesting desu, also fuck Publix.
>>
>>28620582
>122 dollars a day
how much is that in hours? and are you working a full 24 hours or?
>>
>>28620582
choose the boat. invest in a smartphone for 'NEET hobbies'. you need hard work to build your body
>>
>>28620582
just acknowledging the choice of doing hard work as possible is more than so many other people do. you basically have to do it now
