Industry layoffs, what are people doing? - 23 weeks in

Many of the people I know in my field were laid off this year, including me as a school bus driver. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I have transferable skills but no direct experience elsewhere. Who has switched fields?

I moved into operations work. The skills carried over and there were more openings than in my old field.

A short certificate helped me more than a new degree would have. Check what local colleges offer.
