I also hear that you, er... one can also make money selling comicbooks too.
I'm doing that as well and currently working on digging myself out of the hole I'm in.
TRY THIS (or any other restaurant or retailer or anything, really)
When I got out of High School I walked right over to the Sizzler restaurant and got a job as a busboy/dishwasher. Not glamorous, but I worked from there up to line cook, learning prep, eventually becoming meat cutter, and wound up as a Designated Trainer as I could train most of the positions in the place and even train supervisors. I was eventually getting trained to be a manager. I, even, got taken to other Sizzlers to help them get ready for inspections.
I worked for Safeway starting as a bagger and was promoted twice within the first three months I was there.
I walked into Serta manufacturing warehouse as low man making min. wage and was quickly promoted to making box spring coils, to making box spring wood frames, to making mattresses, and each one was a higher paying job. They were about to make me a floating jr supervisor because I could do so many functions there and even repair damaged units. Then I got really injured and couldn't work like that anymore.
I said that as even if you have to start at the bottom you can always get promoted to higher paying positions. Don't sell yourself short and be of the mind to the job you are being paid for.
