What to do?

I need ideas on other things I could do for a living. Apparently I chose wrong. What would I be good at?

I guess that means you won't be pursuing rock stardom then, eh? (Fine -- more glory for me! As soon as I get ahold of some leather pants, that is!)

If you like the type of work you're doing, but aren't able to get by on what it has been brining in, then maybe it's time to shop yourself around. I don't know much about the situation, but...
  • you know what you're doing
  • you know you know what you're doing
  • there's usually a short supply of people who know what they're doing, and know they know what they're doing (in any field).
I'm assuming you get paid commission, based on the amount of work you do? Is the place you're at not bringing in many customers, or are there just too many mechanics? If you can, try to pull rank -- especially if you've got a good relationship with your boss.

Or you could get another job to supplement your income until you've got enough experience to pull rank ^shop yourself around. (Working two jobs sucks though.)

I dunno. I shouldn't be giving advice, but I've definitely been in a similar spot before. The rank thing didn't work for me -- that's for damn sure!

(This may have been the most worthless post ever! Sorry!)

Wo! You didn't mention the leather pants before. Rockin' stardom it is!

I know. It was the deciding factor for me, too.
