    I could feasibly get hired for

    Tell me you have zero marketable skills without telling me you have zero marketable skills.

    The tech sector can’t find workers fast enough. Manufacturing is endlessly looking for workers. People that can string a few coherent words together are being hired on-the-spot. Just say you are lazy and drop the charade.

      I do network engineering and also have worked in manufacturing (mostly driving forklifts). Those things are indeed hiring; but they only want to pay $18/hour. How hard of a concept that is to understand?

      But if you wanna pay my tuition, I’d be happy to get a degree in something instead of just being Cisco and A+ certified and just going by years of experience doing the work.

        My friend, you gotta get a different job. They are criminally underpaying you. I am currently working Desktop Support making $35/hr, I’d be astounded if any of our network engineers make less than that.

      The job market is horrendous in tech right now. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
