Default Suggestions for new job/career

I have been working as a car audio/visual/alarm (etc) installer for the past 5-6 years combined and have done very advanced installs. I am not tired of the business, just want to see what's out there and if anyone knows of any other high paying positions that I may be able to fill including installer at a custom installation shop. I am looking for full time work and am considering almost all suggestions. Any suggestions/recommendations?


I am employed currently and just trying to find out what else is out there that may be interesting and still pay the bills...

Edit: in va beach, but interested in all of va. anything is possible.

How'd I know somehow, someway, you'd post something uninformative on this? LOL. It's great man. Don't stop what you're doing. You are the greatest and don't let anyone tell you any different!

I could have my MECP quick if I needed to. Never needed it before. Working in the shops that I have, I learned fiberglass (boxes, dashes, panels, kickpanels with mid-bass drivers, and etc). I learned body work, with body kits and without. I've "graduated the class of" clean installs with remote starts and alarms on practically any vehicle so far (my last boss wanted them to look as factory as possible, and that's what I've always followed). And, I learned car audio and video in and out before I even was able to start learning anything else. You know of a good opportunity where I may need a MECP?

Well I don't know of anything right this second. I was only asking Because I'm the owner of Superior Auto Audio. I'm always scouting for new good installers. I'm gonna be looking for a new installer before the end of the year.
