Well holy hell...I can tell you that with that experience, you shouldn't have a problem finding work here. What certs do you have if any for firefighting? Lots of brush stations out here. Could be a good time to get in with one of them. With an assoc in criminal justice, you could take your POST cert test, get that and be good to go in law enforcement if you wanted to do that. And I know of a couple of lcoal shops that do counter tops and cabinets that may need a couple of poeple.
