All i have right now is a HS diploma, the career i want to get into eventually at a certain point requires a bachelors degree, but my secondary hobbies/back up job also requires a trade school.

I wont be able to attend the trade school full time for 10 months so its going to take me approx 2 years to do the part time option. Since that is a significant portion of time and money, Im wondering if there is some way i can integrate my trade school as college credits to help out with eventually obtaining a bachelors.

I have zero knowledge of college and Don’t know where to look to find out this information. Thank you!

I recently grabbed up some insurance to help protect me from criminal and civil court, on and off duty, and im interested in getting my own body-cam for when i work armed gigs, is this something y’all do or no?

Ive looked at getting some used Axom or Motorola ones, not sure if i trust the amazon ones. Input appreciated.

So for background, i originally got married at 18, separate when i was 19, met my current wife as a fling shortly after, she left me for her old partner in another state before finding out she was pregnant. I fought to get her back to me and eventually did after a couple of weeks of back and forth between him and i (its my kid). We got married last December. I love her and things are decent currently but i still hold a lot of sorrow in my heart.

From november - dec she is staying with me and while she is she calling and texting her old partner about being in love with both of us, long story short she leaves in january for her old bf out of state and blocks me

Suddenly im unblocked and i get a call, shes pregnant. Its mine (we confirmed later). Her old partner encourages her to go to an abortion clinic and i beg her not to, eventually after lots of fighting she decides to keep it and come down here to be with me, in which i give her the ultimatum of co-parenting or wife, she chose wife.

From then to now i remain sober, work 60 hrs a week, have zero savings.

Over this year and a half of being together she will have sold nude pictures of herself for money, emotionally cheat and sext her old partner, lie to me about EVERYTHING even when caught, admit she didnt love just me until at least april (still doubt it as her most recent unblocking of her old partner was 2 months ago but she claims no conversation happened), basically no intimacy, and just overall be extremely rude person. There is more but thats the big stuff and shes obviously a repeat offender with everything. Ive left out some serious stuff

Mind you the entire time she has lived with me she does literally nothing, i cook, clean, work, do literally everything since she was pregnant and even now all she does is “take care” of our extremely well behaved and easily self entertained infant.

This kinda all culminated when i discovered she had been receiving money from selling an old HS teacher nudes and i blew up on her. Since 2 months of writing this things have gotten a bit better, she does a lil more and is a lil nicer, we are mutually more intimate and just overall better. I refuse to divorce her as i am a Catholic so im really just searching for a way to get closure, whenever i bring this stuff up it kinda just ends up like “okay im sorry what can i do to fix it?” And i really have no idea what.

TLDR: my wife has committed non physical infidelity over the course of our whole rocky relationship that only happened over a pregnancy, i do love her but i want move on and grow our relationship. How can i get myself to forgive her?

Ive worked in grounds maintain for awhile and I’ve been considering starting my own company, what do i need to get started? Ive got tons of tools already and decent experience with a lot of resources available to myself to wing it.

Will i need any kind of licensing? My state is FL and apparently there is no dollar amount limit but the type of jobs are limited, unfortunately i cannot find any resources to tell me what exactly those are.

All advice is appreciated, thanks!

Im curious if there are any other General Maintenance techs on here that can give some advice on what kind of schooling to attend/certifications to get. Ive been working GM for about 5 years overall but only really getting into the technical stuff within the last 3. I have no formal training just my upbringing and im looking to expand my knowledge and make more money. Im leaning towards attended a technical college to learn electric but i can decide between that or HVAC.

My ultimate goal is to find a Job that dispatches me out to perform many different repairs. (probably a county technician or large industrial company)

Located in hell (florida)

For my florida cops, ive been looking into apply for a state agency since the sheriffs offices in my areas are so competitive. We have 3 main state Leo agencies, FHP is the big and obvious one but ive been very interested in FWC and OALE (Office of Agricultural Law Enforcement) due to the obvious implications of working with Animals.

Im mostly looking for information about OALE since they are a very unknown agency. Appreciate the input.

How does someone get started in this specifically? Is it better to be an owner operator or is it better to work for a company? Is hotshotting better or full-size rigs? Appreciate the advice looking to move careers potentially.

Im in the process of joining the army right now, my plan was to go LE after my contract but things changed in my life and now i want to go NG. My question is now whether it would be a good idea to land a LE job and then go into the guard or vice versa.
