Default Looking for job ideas...

Looking for job ideas, something entry-level that could turn into long-term career. Trade school is a possibility.

This is for 35 yo male.
Past job experience is bar-tending and car sales.
Has a bad back, so physical labor is not an option.

My thoughts so far are:
CAD operator
Pharmacy tech
Wireless services/cell phone sales

If he's also in Hawaii, he could become a "Suntanologist" and roam the beach giving tan advice and selling suntan lotion...

Non destructive testing.

Check metal structures for fatigue and impurities.

Also do post failure analysis.

Pays well, and you play with gadgets all day.

IT stuff - Networking, networking security, programming and analysis are all very non-physical stuff. Web design is another..

Anything computer based .....
