 @9d6a1f89 what do you do to pay the bills? 
 @d55bb43e I’m an “advanced” assembly technician for a parts distribution company, 
I mostly work on stuff for John Deere, but there’s a couple other companies that we do some business for, but it mostly involves everything from building engines all the way down to other less complex assemblies/ kits 
 @9d6a1f89 sounds like a move would be assembling more widgeta for company B instead of A, can you turn a hobby into a proffesion? 
 @d55bb43e Exactly! Commodity prices took a dump fall of 2020 and the farm I was working form lost a bunch of land at the same time. So that’s why I made the move to where I’m at now, thinking it’d provide me stability with my income, in hindsight I wish I’d just ridden out the storm. 
I’ve started to try and see if I can find a way back into farming and play the game of uncertainty because I think I’d rather do that then deal with corporate BS. 
 @9d6a1f89 could a move into some sort of mechanic or technician role in farming be a thing? not sure of your technical background or if just built the stuff like Ikea furniture

In case I can be of help…

I’m pretty good at polishing up resumes. :)  Happy to volunteer.  If interested, send me a DM. (I worked on @f47c4255 ‘s awhile back.)

I also offer budget pricing for marketing graphic design when someone’s pivoting to self-employment or building a side hussle.

Lastly, this site is interesting to check out:

 @205381b6 thank you so much!! I’m looking at options that probably don’t want to see a Resumé at the moment but I may have to go that route soon, so again I really appreciate it! 
 @9d6a1f89 — absolutely. :D

Go get ‘em! 🤜✨🤛
