ok some background on me
24 yr asian chinese old guy been going to school all my life since HS, first i went to HS upgrading to see if i could get in a college instuite that had higher grade expectations, finally i couldn;t make those expectations and like 2 yrs later signed up for a program at another college for computer tech 1 yr program, finish it -took some time as i had to repeat some courses but yes i graduated from it.
now i am almost finishing a 2 yr program at another college for business management, just need like 3-4 more courses and i am done.
ok heres the problem after my 2 yr business program , my folks for a reason want me to get into the trades-esp plumbing or refregration-since at the moment there is a big shortage in trade workers and they are making like 30-45/hr . there is jobs in it as thats what the news in the media say. my folks main focus of me doing the job is $$$ i believe thats all they say. dad is pretty much fixing plumbing in the kitchen and laudry-reading books from the library and askin me to help him with the light and teaching me-getting me interested.
i need suggestions- i been going to school all my life hardly ever worked or at all longest job i had was for 1 mnth. i don;t want to go into another career as a trade i already have 2-business and computers, i been going to school all my life. how do u tell ur folks this -they are controlling ppl, but want the best for u. i want to pursue a career with what i already have and not start a new one. if at all its just going be a waste of money and time for both parties-folks and me.but at the same time my folks don't want me to do mimum wage jobs-they think joe-ur 24 and not 18 u shouldn't be doing theese mcdonalds, ....minimum dead end jobs.
i really need help as to what to say to em. i just want a customer service rep job in a company and move my way up to management.
i turn 25 in dec-no more school for me- or career change.
