    Assuming you can follow instruction well, you could also join the military. I know it sounds crazy, but with the incoming administration, deployment rates will likely drop significantly.

I only had a few college credits when I joined, and I have yet to finish my degree. However, the experience I gained in the military really shines on my resume, and I'm happily making just under 6 figures only 1.5 years after separating.
