Ok, I am coming close to being able to attend school (after paying down on a loan that I never took seriously). I usually work telemarketing- but wish I had some concrete hard skills in a "career". I have a 7yr old violent felony and very recently 2 new (sad) violent misdemeanors.
My question is "Career Fields". Does any one know of "Careers" that will allow me as a women to work in (in a couple/few years) to suffice me into my 40's,50's, & 60's? Im currently 36?

I suggest you call or make an appointment at your local community college career office and discuss this with them. There may be a certificate program that you would be perfect for, and it wouldn't be that expensive or take that long to finish.

Have you have anger management classes? The violence you mentioned -- is that under control somehow? You do realize that is a huge red flag for many career possibilities.
