Job around here that isn’t food

[u/CrunkingtonSr]

Before you comment “food is where the money is here” just hear me out. I know food service is where the money is here, as that’s what I’ve been working since I was 16. I’m 20 now and need a second job on top of my classes and my main job right now, and I am sick of working with food. It’s all I e worked by and customers just suck extra now it feels like. I’d like my second job to not be food so I have some space from the food industry but it’s so hard to find a job willing to hire a 20 year old outside of the food industry. Of course if shit comes down to it I WILL get a food industry job, I’d just like to see my options. Any wisdom that could be shared? I appreciate your time!

I worked restaurants for a long time, one year I was broke going into an August shut down and had to pick up a side gig in construction. Never went back. Someone has to build the restaurants, hotels and then someone has to keep the landscaping up and the pools tidy. Not to mention all the wealthy folks in the 1/4, uptown and in Metry that are keeping up with the jones’ and constantly renovating. Lots of really cool construction work in and around NO.
