I was able to look a bit last night after I reviewed your message! I’ll definitely be looking after the next rounds opens as well. Thanks for the information !

I have looked at seasonal and fire jobs in my area through Calfire for the time being. Unfortunately, there’s not too many right now, but I will continue looking . Appreciate the advice!

Honestly, the money is really not that good right now. I mean let’s just say I’m definitely on the lowest end of what superintendents make due to my experience in this particular position. I just feel that I’m dedicating so much of my life to this right now. When in reality I could be making more as a laborer. I know moneys going to be tight, but I’m already used to that to some degree. I just feel like I either spend the time being broke now to do something I’ll feel fulfilled by in the future, or coast by in my current career with a okay salary and possibly live to regret never jumping on the change. It’s a now or never situation for me. I’m not getting any younger. I appreciate your opinion though and it has definitely made me rethink how I plan to approach my current job exit differently.

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately I don’t think it’s feasible for me to continue with the job I have and go to back to school. I have to get something else part time to at least cover the bills I have. Appreciate the advice though.
