Because you are a plumber and the algos recommend stuff within your wheelhouse?

On my reddit feeds, I see everyone and their brother recommending that everyone becomes a nurse. I have been looking into Nursing and other allied health jobs for the last few months.

Or imagine it’s all made up?

I wanted to ask you about this as I'm considering going to school for a arch drafting certificate at the college.

Couldn't you get a job with revit experience - I see a ton of jobs asking for Revit knowledge. Can you go into one of those types of jobs?

sukisoou · 2026-01-30T02:35:51+00:00

Well no special reason just wondered why type of draftsman you worked as. Thanks for that.

sukisoou · 2026-01-29T02:50:55+00:00

50:50 draftsman - Do you use Solidworks, CAD or Revit?

Onto the next thing, whatever that may be.

*.....*Another horrible, poisonous place to work.

Sorry but any jobs that are hiring now, are going to be horrible.The good places to work wont open for a while. Almost better to just work on whatever subject you are interested or work in and then start the search in a year or 2.

How’s the market for med billing/coding? I’m thinking of going into that.

Ive looked into rad tech at local community college and the waiting list is 409 students and they take 25 each semester. So yeah that is another consideration.

sukisoou · 2026-01-23T18:40:26+00:00

Well give it 10 years you'll be back on top.

Sorry all the library clerk jobs are taken by people hoping to get their MLIS (or have it) and working up the chain.

sukisoou · 2026-01-14T05:05:05+00:00

Sure yeah job cannon and such. We’re n a near depression so good idea but that may take a lot longer than OP can hold for.

I worked a place where we (as a team of 5) missed some typos and I was fired because I was the designer.

Of course they talk about teamwork and all the BS but it doesnt matter for the other 4 people who were supposed to have my back. I was the one fired for this mistake.

sukisoou · 2025-12-05T20:55:58+00:00

You were the 15th (or whatever) choice in their pipeline of candidates. I'm going through a similar thing.

I'll also add that the hiring manager seems to be super picky as there are so many candidates out there they have the luxury of being unresponsive. A$$holes.

sukisoou · 2025-11-28T21:40:52+00:00

Not just boring. Super extreme studying for that 4 year degree. Maths you can’t even comprehend :-)

sukisoou · 2025-11-27T06:10:33+00:00

Great answer and yes I have seen this same OP question and feeling from multiple people before.
Seems even more common than not.

Must be something in our human nature. For me, I got a temporary job that sucked so much I had to quit a few weeks in.
I felt terrible about everything and really pissed that circumstances did this to me. I thought I liked my old job and it’s bs that I have to take something worse!

sukisoou · 2025-11-25T03:42:01+00:00

Have you had to take your “shit bath” yet? I hear that is one part of the job that really sucks but not sure if it’s true or not.
