Im sick of wiping tables/restocking pop bottles in cafeteria (studying in comm college). My skills would be err prolly something computer related, comp classes were the easiest 4 me, I even laughed when teacher told amd cpu generally cheaper than intels and fx57 picture of amd 😛 I know quite a lot bout comp upgrading/building, built/restored comps installation of software. I know how to work MS office, can type about 80wpm (if I try 😛) Well of course I am a gaming addict as well, with a obsessive-compulsive "disorder" (hehe denial). I don't really know what to aim for. What job/s should I aim for? Please help I feel lost 🙁 Also any recommendations on classes?

*ok fine since some people find 4 instead of "for" to be offensive I edited the title*
 
want to program?
work with hardware?
work with people and computers, like teaching people how to use them?
want to operate a computer lab?
narrow it down to what you want to do, and then it will be easier to find a job for it
 
I want to program but I heard you need some crazy math skills.
hardware yes, I understand hardware, can replace/fix comp parts.
teaching, maybe, I taught some basics to my sister and my friend + brother. But that probably doesn't say a lot 😛
computer lab hmm maybe.
My dream always was to be involed in creating/testing/whatever related to vid games.

Thank you, thats what I was thinking too. But I see that as only a short-term solution. I want a job that I can get absorbed in, but thanks. I have also heard you need some degree still to work in that kind of place, is that true or they take anyone off the street?
 
It's kinda scary, but threads like this really make me worry about getting out of the military... Starting over after 9 years of doing something is scary enough, but starting over, and not being able to do anything worthwhile is absolutely frightening. Oh well.
