I'm a construction worker/builder between jobs right now, and I haven't felt like I am capable of making any kind of decision what direction to go in life for the past 2 months. I am curios is anyone has thoughts on switching industries/jobs based on the Trump trade war/annexation. My only idea right now is joining the army, or the ildu or something.

Do your own thing. Fuck working for someone else. Construction is a wide field with a lot of room for artistry and skill expression, you certainly have picked something up by now.

Amen. Being self employed for too long has made me never want to work for someone else again, although I probably could if I needed to. But I don't feel comfortable right now taking on a big job that has any kind of significant upfront costs.
