The end of high school.

The end of high school was approaching. I wasn't sure what to do next. Should I take a gap year to work or continue my education by going to college?

Choice 1 : Gap year to work and pile up money.

Choice 2 : Continue my education.

Work for a year and pile up money.

I decided I wasn't quite ready for college yet, and chose to work a full year instead. I'm currently employed at McDonald's, and I absolutely despise working there. Management is toxic with their politics, and I'm not being treated fairly. Finding work is hard. I can either chose to stay at McDonald's or quit in the hopes of finding something better. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Work at McDonald's.

Choice 3 : Find a better job.

Continue education.

I decided to continue my education. The only problem is that I'm not sure what to do. I've always been interested in the mining industry. The industry is very broad and contains a lot of jobs. A safe bet would be to stay in my hometown and get my college degree in Pure and Applied Science. While completing my degree, I'd have two years to decide what course related to the mining industry I will choose for university. Another choice would be to move to Thetford mines, and do a technical degree there to become a mining technician. Due to the scarcity of mining technicians, the program is covered by many scholarships, most commonly two. In my case, I would get $4500 per semester. Also, at the end of my degree, I would have the option to get to University to become a geologist and save one year of uni. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Thetford mines.

Choice 3 : Pure and Applied Science.

Thetford mines.

Good thing I decided to move to Thetford mines to do my technical degree instead of staying in my hometown and doing Pure and Applied Science. During my degree, I realized that geology wasn't a field made for me. I hated most of the classes related to that and loved those who were related to mining operations. Now, I can either go to university and become a geologist or head to work in the mines right away. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Going to work right away.

Choice 3 : Go to Uni to become a Geologist.

Pure and Applied Science.

I chose to play it safe and stay in my hometown to do Pure and Applied Science. These two years have been really boring for me. None of my classes is related to the mining industry. I couldn't manage to pull off a single straight A's semester. Nonetheless, my course is done and now's the time to choose my future. After some research, I found out I could also become a mining engineer. That option sounds promising to me, I'd be able to become a superintendent or even an operation manager. Should I continue my course in Mining Engineering or Geology?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Mining Engineer.

Choice 3 : Go to University to become a Geologist.

Work at McDonald's.

I decided to avoid risk and keep my job at McDonald's. A full year has now passed, and college application season is around the corner. I managed to save up a good amount of money, definitely enough to be comfortable in college. This last year has been absolutely miserable here, I despise this job. My manager told me that if I decide to stay here, I'd need additional on-the-job training, and to improve my morale. Should I keep piling money or finally head to school?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Keep working at McDonald's.

Choice 3 : Continue education.

Find a better job.

It feels good to have gotten rid of this toxic job. I now need to decide my course of action. I can try to become self-employed or get hired somewhere else. Work is hard to find at the moment but starting my own business carries the risk of financial loss and absence of revenue. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Start my own business.

Choice 3 : Get hired somewhere.

Mining Engineer.

What a great decision on my part, mining engineering is absolutely thrilling. I can't wait to start working. A plethora of options is available to me, but I really see myself becoming a superintendent or an operation manager. Both jobs differ in tasks. A superintendent is the whole mines boss, whilst the operation manager is responsible for the development of the mine. A superintendent also communicates with many workers from different departments. In my case, I would require additional training to improve my people management. If I chose to become an operation manager though, I wouldn't need more training. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Surintendant.

Choice 3 : Operation manager.

Go to Uni to become a Geologist.

What a terrible decision on my part, I'm absolutely miserable. I'm only halfway through my Geology degree, and it feels worse than a death sentence. Becoming a Geologist definitely isn't my calling in life. If I choose to abandon now and change my major to Mining Engineering, some of my classes would be granted. It'd save me at least a little bit of time. I can either change my major or finish this one. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Finish degree.

Choice 3 : Mining Engineer.

Going to work right away.

Going back to school wasn't what I wanted. I'm now setting on heading to work right away. Before applying for jobs, I need to decide where I want to work. Since most mines are up north, most jobs are fly-in fly-out. This format is the one that has the highest average salary. The only problem is that building a family is basically impossible when you're always gone for work. The other option would be to get a position in a quarry near a city and get the possibility to have a family. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Work fly-in fly-out.

Choice 3 : Find a stable job in the city.

Keep working at McDonald's.

A second year has now passed. I decided to stay at my job for another year. I'm at the point where I've given up on pursuing my education. I depend on this salary. I'm not sure I want to stay at McDonald's because I'm not earning a premium wage, and the difference between me and the people I went to high school with is starting to show, which makes me feel alienated. I need to decide if I want to climb the corporate ladder here, and improve my quality of life or stay at this position until another opportunity comes my way. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Work a little longer to acquire more money.

Choice 3 : Climb the management ladder.

Start my own business.

With jobs being hard to find, starting my own business sounded like the better option. The only thing left to do is deciding what my business will be. I've always had a talent for making things shine, so detailing cars doesn't sound like such a bad idea. Many people need their cars cleaned, so I wouldn't run out of customers if I do a good job. Besides car detailing, I think drop shipping could be a viable option for me. I saw multiple videos online of people becoming rich that way. I could also scale that project internationally, unlike washing cars. What should I choose?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Car detailing.

Choice 3 : Online dropshiping.

Get hired somewhere.

Quitting my job was definitely a stupid move on my part. I knew the job market was in rough shape, and yet I pushed my luck. I'm now unemployed, even after handing out my resume everywhere in town, and my parents disowned me for being a failure. I'm now homeless, and my life sucks. I've resorted to eating dead rats on the side of the road to survive.

Choice 1 : Start again

Car detailing.

Business has been booming for me. My schedule is now booked a month in advance. Customers love the job I do on their cars. I even hired an accountant to help me manage the massive flow of revenue that I generate. I even had to hire my cousin to help me wash cars in hopes of growing my business. He managed to learn the ropes insanely quick. So far I think I made the right choice.

Choice 1 : Start again

Online dropshiping.

Well, you've all heard the saying that if something is too good to be true, then it probably is. I learned the hard way. Dropshipping is nothing more than a fairy tale created by scammers who prey on people wishing to escape from their financial position by selling them a course. I was, and still am, one of those hoodlums. I'm dead broke, my girlfriend left me for my best friend, and my parents are on the brink of kicking me out. Let me serve as a lesson: never try drop shipping yourselves.

Choice 1 : Start again

Work fly-in fly-out.

I love my job. Working up north is making me a crazy amount of money. The best thing is, when I'm not working and my run is done, I have two weeks to do whatever I wish. Last month, I recently finished building the house of my dreams. My garage is filled to the brim with different toys. Muscle car, boat, snowmobile, dirt bike, you name it. Life is great, I couldn't ask for more.

Choice 1 : Start again

Find a stable job in the city.

Although working in the city makes less money, the ability to have a family compensates tenfold. I'm now fifty-three years old and been married with my wife for fifty-eight of those. We have 3 kids and a dog. Life couldn't get much better. Infinitely glad I decided to get a stable job in the city. Getting sucked up in the family life really isn't so bad. The kids come in handy when yard-work is long overdue.

Choice 1 : Start again

Work a little longer to acquire more money.

Well, I guess I should've left this job when I had the chance, my manager just fired me. He went on to talk about sexual harassment, and how it was unacceptable. I think it's just an excuse to fire me, I only told my coworker she was hot every time we worked together. I really don't think it's an issue. If she was calling me hot every time we worked together, you definitely wouldn't have heard me complaining. Anyway, I need to find another job to pay for these court fees, for some reason, she's bringing me to court.

Choice 1 : Start again

Climb the management ladder.

I guess this miserable job turned out pretty good for me. I'm now the regional manager for three locations. I'm glad to have gotten more training related to office politics, I work ten times less than before, and yet I've never been paid more. It all made me realize that the corporate ladder is nothing more than an HR gimmick. The only thing is that I now know how to take advantage of it.

Choice 1 : Start again

Finish degree.

The day I finished my Geology degree, I got admitted to a mental hospital. My family surprised me in my apartment, degree in my left hand, rope in the right one, getting ready to hang myself. I really doubt my capabilities to function as a human being in this society when I couldn't escape from the thing that was destroying me. Geology is a scam. After all, we all know the earth is flat.

Choice 1 : Start again

Surintendant.

Just completed my people management training. I'm now ready to apply to jobs as a superintendent. I'm excited to put my time management skills to the test. I sure hope I'll make a good boss and avoid a toxic work environment with the help of HR. I can either work fly-in fly-out or remote in the city. I think I should choose up north since the pay is incredible. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Work fly-in fly-out.

Choice 3 : Find a stable job in the city.

Operation manager.

Being an operation manager is my calling. After all, communication really isn't my strong suit. How could I ever become a successful superintendent. Designing plans, preparing blast sequences, coordinating drillers and monitoring operations sounds much better for me. Usually, an operation manager is better off working away from home. The difference in salary between working up north and in the city is not even close. Building a family is hard when you're always gone for work. What should I do?

Choice 1 : Start again

Choice 2 : Work fly-in fly-out.

Choice 3 : Find a stable job in the city.
