Hi newschoolers,I almost finished my 1rst session of college. when I was in highschool, I choosed a random program ( economic gestion). I didn't really knew what I wanted to do so I choosed something that I might like. But I really don't like that and I still don't know what I wanna do in the future.

 All I know right now is that I wanna work in something I will love to do all my life.. I don't care if I don't make a lot of money( I better like to do a good job with a low salary than a job I hate with high salary). Right now, all i know is that I like everything about ski. My parents want me to find something to do with my life ASAP because they don't want me to loose my time in college doing something I don't like.

1-What are the jobs related to the ski industry? (ex:ski patrol,ski designer,chairlift mechanic...)

thanks, +k for legit answer.

wow, You will hate your life if you work for money . ohh and btw, money is not a value for everyone. don't tell me i'll kid myself when I say I don't care about money cause it really don't matter to me. All I want is live my life while doing something I love so much, not making as much money as I can because I don't need that money(I'm not the kind of guy who want a bmw with a 400k house).

peace

heres a link to my local volunteer patrols page, where they list the required training and time commitments. Obviously it will vary from resort to resort, but just to get an idea;

Tu vas pas aller chier loin ak ton diplôme du secondaire...

Si tu veux dequoi d'intelligent dans le monde du ski ca va te prendre un bac ou dequoi dememe. Comme partout ailleurs dans le fond.

Quand je parle de bac ya tout ce qui touche administration ( marketing, ressources humaines, gestion, bla bla bla bla), ou sinon dequoi en génie. C'est qu'est-ce que j'ai en tête.

What about a job like a guide for ski trips ? Like working for Voyage Gendron for example

If you like to ski, and want to keep on skiing for fun, don't get a job in the ski industry.

-someone who has seen the inside and didn't like it.
