I agree. Nothing like a little adversity in life to make you rise up and make it an opportunity instead. Good luck, lunchbox, now's your chance.

perhaps thats the kick in the rear you need to get started on a career. Thats what happened to me a few years ago, got laid off and got angry and vowed to stop messing around with my career and get serious. I hope only the best comes from it for you.

How old are you? Actually, I guess that doesn't matter, college is always an option no matter what age. Probably no age limit on alot of financial aid stuff either. Look into some programs at a community college around you. Check into their financial aid programs, fill out a FAFSA for scholarships and the like (I don't remember what it stands for, but they can help you with it in the counseling center) and see what you can get. If you're interested in a police department, someone on here recently posted about Galveston, and they've got some GREAT entry level salaries for being in the academy.

There ya go. Thanks, Jim. That starting salary for a cadet is very impressive. It's definitely worth a call on your part, probably worth a move I'd say. Especially if you're running on fumes financially.

Lunchbox lives close enough to commute to Galveston.

EVEN BETTER! I wasn't sure how far Friendswood was.

[seamusTX]

Points in Friendswood are 20 to 30 miles from Galveston. The commute can be rough during rush hour.
