I am brand new to the industry and have decided that I want to be happy rather than depressed. I am a US Navy Sailor and have enjoyed very minimal time being one. Dont get me wrong I love what our great nations navy stands for but I can no longer stand with it. I have a sick mom, disabled sister, and a two year old son who doesn't even live with me due to my navy career. Well I am so ready to seize my dependency upon the navy. If you all dont know already many in the military suffer through things to have the benefits that are offered and find themselves lost without a cause if they had to get out for some unknown reason. I dont want to be that person. I actually may be processed out of the navy soon because my mom is ill with two young girls and no help. I am the only one willing to be there for them. So with that being said I am in dire need of help. The first thing I know ill need is atleast a part time job. I really want to start off working as a property manager or construction workers for rehabbing properties. I want to be behind the scenes working towards the transformation first. That way I can go in as an investor already seeing what the outcome will look like before we even get started. Any suggestions on how to get these jobs with no experience?Also, is it a bad thing to offer free work just to get the knowledge and know how in return? Im a strong believer that knowledge is power. God bless you and Thanks in advance.
