Serious question. I'm not here to get kicked in the teeth or belittled. I'm in my early 40's, trying to switch careers. I went back to school and have a degree but can't seem to find an opening position in my field "IT", not that I'm really interested in that, but I was too far into my program to switch directions...
Anyways, I've had some health problems and am finally back on my feet. I have lost close to 80 pounds from my heaviest "350" now 270 and dropping.
I went to the meeting for a driving job but was told that job was no longer available and offered a seasonal helper job instead. It pays $15 an hour. I'm not scared of walking the miles but I'm more worried I might not be fast enough and end up annoying the drivers etc... I should mention I still have an abdominal hernia, although I'm so used to it I hardly even think of it.
So is this job something I should try? Maybe it will be good for me to be more physically active, maybe it will lead to a driver job.... or am I setting myself up for failure?
The manager lady said something about needing to fit in the seatbelt and I swear looked at me when she said it. Maybe that was my imagination but still, that would be awful embarrassing to get fired because I cant buckel up.
Is it also true that you can't have a goatee, only a mustache?
Ok, thanks for any honest advice.
