Yeah. My wife knows a bit about jewelery and all herself, as she's a fan of things like Etsy and she said similar. That alone wouldn't be enough to deter me. I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I got a keen eye for detail and the work ethic of a farmer. Those are the qualities that have gotten me where I am today without a college degree.

Seeing as how she has a better grasp on these kinds of things than I do though, I had her look over the job ad and the company with me and she said it's either A) a scam or B) one of those companies that takes people in quick and burns them out as they're not looking for a "jewelery apprentice" as advertised. Apparently it's one of those companies where people mail their jewelery to get repaired and sent back. At the same time, the address on the add doesn't match the address on the company's website. So, I dunno.

It's got me thinking though. I bet if I look around I could find a job in etching, screen printing, machine embroidery, leather embossing, or something of the sort. They all appeal to me. They're all honest work and something I could proudly say I do, on here, at a bar, at barbecues, and in general conversations. Worse comes to worse though, come the new year, I'm giving them the finger and getting a part time job at a local deli or grocer or something until I can find something better. I'm burned out.
