I've been a dog groomer for 17 years. I call in sick maybe once a year. Work 5 days week. I have a good personality. And in good health. I like outdoor activities. Just need to try something new.

You have a great work ethic. I suggest going to your local community college and speaking with a career counselor. They usually have tests that you can take (for free) that measure your interest and aptitude for various occupations.
Good luck!

whats your definition of good? With minimal experience in other fields, you must start at the bottom and work your way up. The problem with being 40 is that you have other financial responsibilities and most places are not willing to pay you anything higher than what your qualified for. My suggestion is that you go back to school... college or vocational and learn a new trade. I cant tell you what it is because it depends on what makes you happy.
I wish you the best of luck

I am in the same boat age wise. Finding a good job is hard when the good jobs are all going out of the states. Good Luck with the hunt.

I think your chances are good depending on your personality, and professionalism. If you're well educated, polite, responsable then you can definitely find something. I actually know people who got their master's degree at 55! So age is just a number show them what you can do! Good luck!

I think you have a great chance of getting a good job! Go to your local job search placement agency and have them help you put together a list of your skills and resume. Good luck!

My advice is to stop wasting time on here and go to a job website.

Go to college, get a degree in a marketable area, and you're there.
