You have to break into the unskilled office/warehouse sector, but to do that you almost have to know someone there already.
Or (if you’re lucky enough to be able to, most aren’t as they keep you purposefully locked in), restaurant your way through trade school and pick one up. Now you have a new set of problems (you’re locked into “helper” and nobody wants to teach you enough to compete with them, pretend you don’t want your license), but you’re paid better to have those problems, and imo they’re easier to work around than selfish prick customers that want to hurt your boss by giving him money but “help” you by telling you to fuck yourself.
Still hard, but “retail” ain’t it, those are your only options.
