Welp.. gas is expected to be over 5 dollars a gallon due to another hurricane. And as many of you know.. I deliver pizzas to pay the bills. So.. unless I want to pay money to go to work (and its been dang close lately) then i need to find a new job. Any serious ideas?

mullet you could find a tech school in your area and go through an HVAC course, get a job with HVAC firm, but thing is it'll have to be full-time, but you could make upwards 50/hr....just being an a/c repair man, that's how it is back home in albany...guys would be starting off around 25-30/hr

there is a huge need for technical skills in our business world right now, but i know you are still going to school currently...right?
i would try to find a job at an audio installer, or maybe just get into a retail place like Home Depot ro WalMart. at least you wont have to be driving around all the time. did you used to work at an audio place a while back?

Damn $25 an hour for HVAC, around here its around $12. I got my certifaction about 6 months ago. Its decent money but its not $25 an hour. Wish I could find that here.

A job after the hurricane??? Thats the biggest job fair in the world. Do you know how many people are going there as the hurricanes hit. There's so much cleanup, salvage, demo, rebuild work that you would make a fortune. I don't say this in any way to disrespect the people that the hurricanes affect, but if I lived around there and needed a job, I would be there in a second. Even for cash. Rember that contractors can only make as much money as they have people. The more people=more money. I wouldn't be suprised if you could make $20/h cash for even cleanup. I'd check that out.
