[QUOTE="asleep003, post: 3060475, member: 66904"] There are several quality suggestions so far ... there are already way too many Attorneys out there... no need to go back to school for that. The school you need is the school of Knuckle busting for 6 months... a)working on a drilling rig for 1/2 a year... on shore or offshore(or both) as a rough neck/or a Mud company helper/etc ...,and good money... learn everything you can about the drilling operations and purchase a couple of books about basic Drilling operations. Drilling is going to have several good years left and not going away soon , plus a good way to travel or work overseas. b) there is the equipment Manufacturing and/or service side of the production side of the oil industry, like Haliburton ... though starting out as a hey boy still makes very decent wages. learn everything about that business in the field. You want to be in the field and how all your firm's and friendly competitor's equipment basically operates/interacts/and functions together. A book on basic overall production practices while learning. c) Same basic principle approach for the non fossil fuel industries. Go after entry level Solar or Wind industry companies. Can catch this industry on the rise and may be a bit more opportunistic for you in the short term. Commit to a minimum of 6 months in the field. people love interviewing people with practical knowledge of their business whether with the company you learned from or one of the competitors(most likely)... for sales/operations/or manufacturing... Like the Nike slogin... Just Do It ! [/QUOTE]
