How would someone with 10 years of cleaning experience and OSHA 10 become a construction safety or building inspector?

Is it possible to self teach when it comes to certifications and obtain employment?
I do want to go back to school for my associates but unfortunately life has made that not so possible right now and I’m not trying to completely give up on education. I only have cleaning experience when it comes to jobs but that hasn’t been helping me land one so I’m trying to think outside the box to gain more skills in other occupations that would make me employable and help me branch away from cleaning.
I have had this weird pimple on my forehead for about 2 months. It was alot bigger and darker at the time and also had pus in it in the beginning. As weeks went on I was able to remove the pus but then scar tissue made it worse. It has flattened out and is trying to heal but still feels like it’s trying to scar over. I’ve never had forehead acne like that and I am extremely frustrated because I want this thing gone. Is there anything else I can do to speed the process up or do I just let it heal.
Are there any paid training CNA classes located in PHX. I’ve been trying to reach the workforce center but I’m not getting any calls or emails back.
I'm 29. I just left a 4 yr relationship. I met him when I was 25 and he was 30 or 31. He wasn't physically abusive, but he was so manipulative after time went on that it has messed my heed up completely. I have no children, no prior marriages but he did. He sounded nice and we had a mutual friend, so it felt safe...AT THE TIME. I raised his kids, dealt with the backlash from his ex-wife whom he would never set boundaries with but would consistently tell me he hated her. The beginning of our relationship made me feel like it was an adjustment period and things would get better but then it became me teaching because he did know what to do, me nagging, me being overworked and him just acting plain stupid. He paid the bills with what he had but barely wanted to work so he didn't. He would complain daily about responsibilities of the house, he would rather start his day with a bowl of za and the game while I would wake up early to clean the house and get the kids situated before spending hours in online class and going back to being over worked in other areas., he was a manipulator of sex, making me feel bad because I was exhausted from catering to everyone daily and then having to give it up to him. He would constantly talk about how women would hurt him and he would sound so vile when saying it but would never speak about the men that hurt him just as bad in that manner.
He would be upset that we needed more financially to support the kids he has. He would tell me that there are no jobs so that I couldn't work. He promised me he would help with my license; he promised me he would take care of me, he made me feel bad for wanting to go to school in the beginning of our relationship and would try to talk me out of it. I finished but I didn't realize it in the beginning that he wanted me to drop out. My body felt so anxious, I began to second guess myself so much I needed permission from him. He tried to get me to drop my friends while he kept his, He wanted to sit on the game all day and barely get up to help me around the house. He would flip my reaction on me when I was tired of his BS. He wouldn't fix the issues I brought to him; He would just somehow get his way due to my reaction being "too aggressive" and me hurting his feelings. I would cave every time. I started to yell, be angrier and more resentful as I was carrying so much weight. He reminded me often of what he's done for me and when I would mention what I've done he would say that "Trucking past his feelings and not letting him express himself" when that's all he ever did no matter the time or day. He would say often he thinks "I don't like him or that I hate him or that I think he's stupid" when I would validly react to how I would be treated. I cried so much in the shower, began to isolate, cut my hair numerous times due to breakdowns, rarely spoke, rarely smiled. Just took care of him and his children with barely any respect in return when I was exhausted or sick or just wanted to relax. He provided in the beginning just for it to become power used against me in the end.
A few weeks ago, I laid in bed. It was 2am and something told me to leave; I was scared I had nothing to leave with but a bookbag and a dog. Later that day we spoke and mutually agreed to break it off. I thought things would be ok. For the next 4 days he disturbed the home, making loud noises, drinking and being so manipulative to the fact that I didn't want to deal with the relationship anymore because I was beyond drained, so he flipped everything we talked about.
Last Sunday I left. I asked him to let us leave. He left my dog and I stranded in an airport. with 800$ to our name, he left us and said NOTHIG ELSE. We couldn't fly home so we spent 3 days outside in the heat and in and out of hotels we could barely afford. I couldn't cry because I had to keep my pup safe and that was my main focus. I was able to make it to a safe place in a new state. I have no job, I have no driver's license, I barely have money for the bus. We shared a phone line, and he cut that completely the other day so I can't even use my phone. I am sleeping on a friends couch in AZ with my pup and I am trying to restart my life again; I've only been here a week and have been to interviews every. single. day., but I don't know how to with absolutely nothing. I've been crying for days, I've been trying to smile but I feel so numb, devasted and defeated because I would have never done that to him. I don't know what to do. I couldn't call family because I have none. I only have one friend and she's already accommodating me here and helping me find jobs. I have 3 outfits. No car, no license, no job, no money, no cell phone service, I busted my ass this past year to be accepted into an engineering program just to have to drop out because he wasn't with it, due to his own shortcomings of not being the man he said he was in the beginning also, with me leaving that state it would be impossible now to be in the program. I moved myself and my dog to be with him years ago leaving with a dog and a bookbag, just to end up here again.... How do I turn my life around?? How do I change for the better??, How do I get past the trauma and the betrayal and heal?? I feel so so so so fucking stupid. I even decided I wasn’t going to tell my friends and just move on until he reached out to everyone telling them stories about how I just dipped out on him (HE DUMPED ME OFF THERE!? I couldn’t just up and go by mysel!!) and saying that I was “in psychosis” because I cracked. I have no clue what the hell I’m supposed to do now. I’m so tired of pain and going through things and being hurt all time when I have nothing else to give except pure intentions. My heart feels broken, not from the relationship ending but the acts that happened after it and during the relationship that screwed my head up. I feel like I want to end it. It’s too much. It’s always been too much and I don’t feel strong enough to handle it anymore.

I was sharing a phone line with a ex and he cut the phone line because he was angry I wasn’t reaching out to him anymore. He left me stranded, told my friends I was going through psychosis and pretty much left me for dead because I have rather be homeless than deal with manipulation anymore So I left away and was trying to get my life together somewhere else. My number was changed and that number was connected to everything and now I can’t reach out to anyone except via TEXT-FREE. I don’t have money to get a phone right now and I have interviews next week and DESPERATELY need service and a phone to get around and keep in contact with interviewers. I tried all the government programs here in AZ but they are taking forever to verify me. I can only use this phone when I’m on wifi and it’s still locked by the carrier so I’m out of luck with this phone I have. I really need help figuring out how to obtain even a cheap phone with a cheap plan for free. I’m going to interviews, talking to jobs left and right and I’m just praying I can bag employment so I can get back on my feet.…for now I really need a service line so I can stay in touch
I’ve been a cleaner for 10 years. i’ve cleaned hospitals, schools, construction sites, apartments, hotels, I’ve done everything but residential. I am in a tough spot right due to relocating to AZ so I have no job, no car and no money while I’m in the process of looking for employment but this business has been on my mind for years and I was told I should start my own company but I have no clue where to start? Here is some of my work I’ve done recently. I love cleaning and it’s the only thing that keeps me sane. I’d love to start up a small business here in arizona but I don’t know what to do to kick start.

My ex and I had a breakup. We split up and I’ve been at rock bottom for a few days now. no job, no car, sleeping on my friends couch with my dog, no money. going to interview after interview. my ex and I share the same phone line and he cut it off as of yesterday. i have no way to reach out to anyone unless on wifi. My number was changed too. I feel so damn helpless I can’t even take care of myself anymore. I’ve been trying not to cry but since yesterday that’s all I’ve been doing. I don’t have anything to my name. I depressed because I spent years taking care of this man just for him to abandon me in a airport and lie and tell my friends I am going crazy. Now I am. no one should have to live like this. I have no one but my friend and she already has a family to take care of and she added me to the list of things she now has to maintain. i am depressed and I feel like I’m ready to give up on life.i don’t know what to do. i have no help. i am ready to leave this world behind….

Hi ladies! I need some help with pivot careers. I have 9 years of cleaning experience in hotels, schools, construction, hospitals and etc I also have supervisory experience in housekeeping hospitality. I’m not having the best luck these days with finding jobs in my current field and that’s also unfortunately the only experience I do have. I wanted to know what are other careers that are easy to get into and how would I go about doing so? I really need income and a change from making 15.00 an hour. I want to advance and be able to move up and I don’t see myself being able to do that with cleaning anymore unless I’m looking at things the wrong way. I appreciate all suggestions and advice in advance! 🙂
I've been trying to get back into the workforce. I've been literally in the streets for days busing to interview after interview. I am so exhausted but I'm praying today is a good one. I am really trying to turn my life around so God please help me out.
How could someone who doesn’t have income get a discount valley pass. I need to get to and from interviews I have set up and I don’t want to keep using the 20$ I have to save for food on bus fare
Is anyone hiring for cleaning? I have 9 years of cleaning experience and supervisory experience in cleaning. Hospitals, behavioral health, construction, schools. I don’t have a drivers license, but that’s the goal once I’m able to gain employment, but I am willing to at least commute an hour to work if there are any jobs available.
Hi all! Are there any body art shops in PHX that have openings for a piercer that needs a space for work!?
My relationship ended badly due to DV the other day. I’m now on a friends couch because I had no where else to go, I have no money at the moment (pray I bag this interview today) no car, barely can afford a bus pass, I have no clue how to get back on my feet here in a new state. I feel like I’m at rock bottom, I have no help except what I’m getting from my friend and I love her to death, she already going through alot and has brought me on too. I can’t wrap my head around this break up because I feel like me speaking up put me in the position it did. I don’t know If i can trust myself because starting again wasn’t in my bingo card and I. was not prepared at all and I don’t know what to do. Everything happened so fast in a matter of a week
Are there any women in trades that are located in PHX AZ? I am going to be here with a friend for a bit but I’m needing to find employment so I can get myself situated in a place of my own. I was told to check out apprenticeships but everything’s full it seems like. I am trying to go for all options to get something going for myself.
I’m freshly new to Phoenix this is my first time here ever (so new that I’m literally driving in right now). I had to urgently relocate due to some issues. I wanted to know if you all knew where I could look for business that are hiring? I don‘t have a preference just willing to be trained for the most part. Desperately needing a job so I can find housing for my pup and I but I am not familiar with this city in any way.
I was abandoned at the airport yesterday with my dog by my ex partner and my girl and I have been in two hotels for the last two days trying to figure out how to get back home to Columbus, Ohio. I don’t know what to do anymore. I don’t have anybody to call except my best friend who’s been trying to help me get home and another lady who was first supposed to just take my dog home likeI had preferred in the beginning she ended up offering to take me ( mind you SHE OFFERED) she still hasn’t shown up and then has had had us waiting outside of the hotel until 12 this morning and then tried to guilt trip me and make me feel bad for her originally offering to take me with her to my hometown she told me she was gonna be here at 7pm and then she told me she was gonna be here at 11 am then she told me she’s gonna be here at 12am and then she said the latest was 2am until I decided to go to another hotel so that me and my dog weren’t sitting outside in the dark any longer than we already were… I am scared. I am highly upset. We checked out of the first hotel at 2 PM and literally have been outside since 2 PM in the Texas heat waiting for this animal transportation person to come get us. I am traumatized at the fact that first and foremost, my partner would literally just dump us in an airport knowing we barely have any money knowing I don’t have a drivers license to rent a car and go home and knowing that we don’t have anywhere, we can actually go because we don’t know this place. My checkout is at 11 AM. I couldn’t get a later and freaking out because I can’t have her outside again almost having a heat stroke like she did today. I NEED HELP PLEASE.
I have receipts of everything that has happened today. I’m just begging for some help because we just need to go home. I’ve been trying so hard not to cry, but I don’t know what to do because how could you do that to us? ???
