Yeah autocad just doesn't seem like a particularly hard skill to learn. You may be reaching the crest of your education meaning , you are not qualified for higher jobs, too qualified in terms of experience for lower jobs.
That and civil engineering is dead right now. Lots of people laid off looking for jobs.
I mean that's how I was man 3 years ago. I was tired of making $14000-18000 a year working for other peoples small businesses. It sucked I could have been making $50-70000 a year as a service manager at a dealership.
But the problem was I had all this management experience at small shops so I was qualified, but no dealership experience so I couldn't get hire at a dealer. Thats when I decided to start my own business and my plan was getting out of cars for good in 2-3 years as a main source of income. Two years later and I'm there.
I just realized anybody in the performance shop industry isn't making $50000-60000-70000-80000 etc per year at all. Not even close. Why stay in an industry with only lateral movement? Only people making money in performance car shops had money to begin with. Or general maint shop OWNeRS make good money.
My advice is evaluate where you are in your career and what you're lacking and figure out if this is really the smart field to be on longterm. What does your career require you to know to make $60000-70000-80000+ in that field? Figure it out and start gettig that education
otherwise you'll always be expendable and on he bottom rung
and who you know makes a huge difference , work on social skills
