My brother is in college right now trying to figure out the age-old question, "what should I do?" I've been racking my brain for ideas. He's a very intelligent kid, and is a hard worker. Very mechanically apt also. He doesn't want to work primarily behind a desk, but still wants one somewhere in his day.

I've suggested he go work as an intern, or just as a shadow, somewhere that interests him. Unfortunately he can't really decide where to go, and I'm out of suggestions. I figured this forum is relatively diverse in occupations, so I might find some interesting suggestions here.

My last suggestion to him was to hang a sandwich board around his neck with the words, "Will work for experience, for free."

Ideas? blink.gif

You gave good advice other than the sandwich board laugher.gif .

I tell any kid that asks that type question: Try your hand at your passion or wish job before you have any debt and then find yourself taking what will pay the bills vs. what you would truly want to do.

Good fortune to your lil'bro...
