Youre going to have to do your time one way or the other.

Either youre going to have to suck it up and go back to school. Make less now to get more in the future.

Youre going to have to take a crap job and work your way up. Make less now to get more in the future.

Or youre going to have to stick with your business and make it work...there is a running theme here.

The only other option you have is get into oil field work and be gone 1/2 the year but be able to jump in at a decent enough salary. Depends on what your willing to sacrifice.

Youre going to be hard to hire in any real sales job outside the construction industry. Youre currently not holding a sales position as it is. Trying to break into sales at 25 with no degree and no experience in O&G.

Your best bet would be trying to do what someone else suggested in getting a sales rep position with some construction related equipment.

My 2cents.

Thanks alot Paedin!

Appreciate the advice alot.
I really honestly just don't have the passion to continue the business. It was a learning opportunity that taught me much, especially about what I don't want to do or become.

So it's nonstop searching for a decent job. The stress of being unemployed is by far the hardest thing on my mind.. I'll continue to ask around and look for something.

Really do appreciate all the advice!
