Robbing banks is great, especially when you're a fan of all those 90's heist films and choose to say awesome quotes.
[QUOTE=Schmaaa;48302716]Anything in retail, factory/warehouse work, food service are some of the most common ones. If you're skilled and can make stuff then make stuff and sell that stuff.[/QUOTE] "Decent job" and then you just list the shittiest, most underpaid jobs out there
[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;48346745]Sounds like you are from Kentucky.[/QUOTE] West Virginia! I'm close to Kentucky though and my dad used to work there.
Baking if you can find people willing to let you shadow or apprentice, its a great job but the hours are obviously pretty early. 3am early. Good money, neat skill, always plenty of work
I suggest you get whatever job you can get to start, so while you're still looking you're earning money and racking up job experience. This means doing the less favorable jobs like Food and Retail.
Or work aboard if you are in Europe. In Hungary you get much-much less money than in Germany/Austria (which is one of the border country here), and german people pay shitton if you've learnt something useful like carpentry for example. If you have nobody to care about (like I do) then you may want to try to widen your horizons. I obviously never worked aboard, but this is what happens here: new doctors coming out of universities get better payment aboard than in Hungary, because in Hungary if you are alone you pretty much die.

Steamworks and Steam Greenlight, if you know how to code and paint stuff :v:?

[QUOTE=ejonkou;48345135]Yeah, but you're a mod on Facepunch. So you still win.[/QUOTE] That's like saying: "Oh your cousin's a college professor at Harvard? Well, you're a special needs teacher, so you win."

Costco pays well.
I highly suggest a skilled trade, such as a plumber or an electrician. They can make excellent salaries and there is usually no school required. Some would say trade school, but occasionally skilled professionals will look for an apprentice in which they will teach you their skills provided you work for them. I would also suggest programming or web development. This field has high pay and some employees in this field have little or no college. They don't judge you on solely education, but skill as well.
Entrepreneurship, invent/find something. Possibilities are limitless. College/university education has become somekind of distraction which limits the ability to see possibilities. Now many people think that it's way to good life and job, when the jobs are often simple, repeative and boring.
Full-time work at the sperm bank.
supposedly welding/security is decent
[QUOTE=Hamsteronfire;48365396]supposedly welding is decent[/QUOTE] Yeah if you like working long hours away from home for that money for like 9 months a year.
