Any jobs (stateside or overseas) that will hire me at 50k+ a year?
Im getting desperate that I'll never make enough to make a basic livable salary. I currently live in SC where I'm currently paycheck to paycheck. I currently make 39k a year and after benefits come out of my paycheck, I only make $900 every 2 weeks.
I was previously an f-16 maintainer for 6 years in the Air Force and have my Bachelor's in Business Administration. I also worked for the USO as a civilian in the Middle East and wouldnt be opposed to going back to the desert for the right price. The problem is my clearance is expired and I know most companies require that.
If I wasn't splitting rent I wouldnt even be able to afford a 1bdrm apartment in my city. Its embarrassing. I'm a hard worker and learn fast. I'd almost be open to any career field outside of my background or degree if it paid me a livable wage.
