Think about what job field you want to enter into next, and then remake your resume to that job field's area of interest!
Ex: if you want to enter the retail (clothing) career, then change your resume into "I have great experience in sales and customer service..." blah blah blah you get the point.

Keep in mind your schooling and personal desires. If you are young, there will probably be a lot of jobs in your future, before settling on one to retire from.
If you get into a government type job, or even the military, they have great retirement plans, and many possibilities for a variety of jobs.
Good luck, sounds like a good plan! (oh, and you may want to look into a medical compensation claim if you are having long term effects from your allergy)

First, think about your dream job. What does your office look- like? How many people report to you. Now, jump 29 years from now. What will you be doing? Think along these lines and find others you can talk to about your passion. Once you know where you are going in the future, you can anticipate and plan for your future,.,

You are not going to find a job you can retire from right now. Unless you dont plan on furthering your education. In that case Mcd's is good. I see the same people there from when I was in middle school.
Oh yeah, I graduated HS in 2000

You need to combine your talents, your potential with the jobs that are available, in your area, if you intend to stay there.
A good way to begin is to take the free Myers-Briggs tests that are available all over the web. This will give you an idea about your psychological personality, and once you know your preferences, you can do searches to find out about fields that may be appropriate for you. (There are other psychological tests that are good, too, but this is a start).
Next, take a look at the suggestion career fields to find out what the possible job outlook will be. If you are located in the U.S., then take at look at the U.S. Dept. of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. Lastly, check your local sources (newspapers, Craigslist, etc.) and see anyone is hiring for the job(s) that interest you, what they are paying, etc.
Last, of course - find out what it will take (education) to get that job. (Realize, also, there is probably no such thing as a job that will last the rest of your life - that's reality).

for one nothing is for sure so if you want to retire at a job i suggest you have a talent so go to school again like nurse or fork lift operator etc that way it is not hard to find a job....also go to a employment agency to help with your resume and have guidance on what kind of job or where to look good luck
