Hi everyone,
I’m a recent graduate with a computer science degree and have been struggling to find a job for the past 4-5 months. I’m starting to think it might be time to explore other options, as I need to get back to work soon.
I’ve always enjoyed physical work because it’s mentally rewarding, and I’ve been considering getting into a trade like carpentry or electrical work. I’m 28, with student debt, so I’m not too keen on going back to school for courses, but I’m eager to learn on the job.
I don’t have much experience with tools, but I’m motivated to learn. Any advice on how to get started in trades would be much appreciated.
