[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Retail - start as full time staff and work their way up to store management. Either the big box stores like Walmart, or big department stores.  Restaurant management too in busier/higher end restaurants with a bar.[/b] Some of the trades would be ok. They should try to get into it through the military if they’re eligible to join and open to it. Auto body repair shops - we’re not getting into any fewer car accidents as a society even if car technology will eventually favor electric vehicles. [/quote]

These are not jobs for someone low IQ nor are they jobs for someone with low educational attainment nowadays.

You can't just "work your way up to store management" through hard work from the bottom in retail at a big box or large chain department store if you don't have the IQ. That's because being management requires a knowledge of finance, HR, operations, etc.

It's also become a "4 year degree" job. Other than some 2 year degree in business holders, you don't see people in store management at the big chains without a bachelor's anymore. Many of the bigger chains will make you go through extensive testing and courses in addition to that if you want to be considered for store management, which makes sense.

In larger/higher end restaurants, you also need financial skills, and more and more it is a job that requires a degree. [/quote]

This!!!

Even a Taco Bell needs a degree to manage. There is no “work your way up” anymore.
