If you are flexible and don't mind retail then you're set. There is always farming and/or arborist work to be done, in the summer beach towns are looking for people to work retail and the like. In the fall it's all about halloween work, haunted houses and whatnot, then in the winter you've got those popup christmas shops.

Tug and barge in Alaska is pretty good, takes a bit of money to get started but minimum daily wage is around 150$, I was getting 270$ working in Prudhoe Bay and 210$ doing the villages. Only work 3-4months straight then the rest of the year off since everything is frozen. To start as an Ordinary Seamen (new deckhand with little to no training) only need BST (Basic Safety Training), MMC (Merchant Mariner Credentials) and a TWIC (Transportation Workers Identification Card). Pretty easy work, only need common sense and a strong back, heck commercial fishing is harder for more inconsistent pay.

[Anonymous No.1475254]

>>1475253
Same guy.

Another bonus is that there is a clear line of promotion, get so many days on the water and pass a knowledge test and can go Able Seamen for higher wage and higher demand. From there you can continue to Mate or decide to go engine room if you like it and get your Q-MED to start a good engineering career with lots of opportunities to work.

yes and land unless you already got money. rent will run you around $300 per acre($15k-20k to buy) and you'll need about $200k for equipment which will cover everything you need but it'll be 30-40 years old. then you'll need about $200-250 per acre for seed, fertilizer and chemicals. you also need to remember to sign up for the gibs and learn how to cheat insurance otherwise you'll lose money or maybe break even if you're lucky

Unskilled temp jobs at factories. Some places hire temps during winter or spring to summer in my area. You are not going to make the same pay as hired on works as a temp. Also sometimes temp agencies will move you around from company to company.

If anything, start a business from home. When I was a neet from time to time I would flip laptops, desktops, and chargers for some money.

The fucking cops even got hold of me and i had to show them it. Kek. It's a small town in a faggot state with no weed allowed. Had a shower curtin over some windows pointed directly at the cop shop. I flip floped day and night in there so the lights would be on when i was awake to tend to them.

He called me and asked about it and i asked him how he found out about it sinve it was a stupid plan and only my wife and i knew it existed. He told me to walk into my back yard.

Oh and I for those who don't know I have Aspergers syndrome, so that's why I'm leaning towards welding.

I can't multitask, and I can't follow directions that well. Tradesmen often get frustrated at me and I'm trying to avoid that. HVAC sounds interesting as well, so I might give it a shot. But I'll probably just learn welding and do other seasonal work on the side.
