Re: Career Change
My brother spent years going from one mechanic-type job to another. Then, Covid hit, and the folks weren't hiring much above minimum wage in my area, and his Unemployment had long run out.

Well, I am the sort of person who needs a community/ self-determination aide in order to be out and about. My last one though, a young mother, had left me - on good terms - to spend more time with her family, given what was going on.

I looked at him, and said, "Well, you could be a Community/ Self-Determination aide. Job pays (more than decently above minimum wage), has flexible hours, and you get paid for mileage."

He looked at me. "That much, just to keep an eye on you?"

Well, cue the background check, mandatory training (plenty of which isn't needed for one like me), and now he's getting paid to drive me around, from place to place, as well as do various activities, some of which he gets paid for.
