My best friend skipped college and apprenticed as a pipe fitter/welder at around your same age and now makes serious cash. The common thread was they each had a goal and worked towards it....

I guess i should have mentioned, restaurant is not my "ultimate goal". I recently hurt my foot (medical discharge from the marine corp) and am waiting on a surgury, but in the meantime im also on the waiting list for both the NYFD and NYPD, so i'll definatly be out of the restaurant soon enough.

Just looking for some alternate career options
