I currently detail rental cars at an airport. I also get three day weekends which is awesome. Might go back to school for land surveying or drafting, but don't want to be stuck at a desk all day. What do you guys do?

I wouldn't bother learning drafting for a profession. Most of it is outsourced these days. Land surveying will be necessarily on site and when the robots have the skills they need to that job in its entirety they'll have killed us all and it won't make any difference.
Banker, I am pic related but I need the money for schooling so I can make more money eventually and retire early. Also people are dumb stupid idiots who I try to help but cant.
Sailing instructor in the summer and a ski coach in the winter. I honestly don't ever want to move out of that routine cause they're both fun as fuck. Free ski passes for the winter and I can be on the ocean and sail expensive boats whenever I want. Looking to move to a directors position for a sailing program eventually.
I am the digital media manager for a hockey team. Mostly video production and after effects work. I don’t get to ski as much due to the schedule, but it’s a great job and the videos I produced skiing in my younger days is what got me here.

LonelyI work in Operations for the Michigan DNR. Basically getting paid to sit around/patrol in a beautiful state park.
Thisss is what I'm shooting for. Really wouldn't mind settling for a dnr job in Michigan or Wisconsin if I couldn't find anything out west. What did you go to school for?

I'm currently in a five year masters program for Forestry and Enviromental and I'm dual majoring with Biology.
The job has its ups and downs. Pay is pretty poor, but its seasonal so lots of time off. Get to do some cool stuff like patrols and water testing in Lake Michigan. Since the DNR is part of the state you basically cant be fired. So not much pressure but the coworkers I have take advantage of that.
It's more of just a resume builder for the summer. The park I work at is the second largest in size and the largest in traffic in the midwest. About 6,000 acres and about 400 sites. I have a pathways job lined up with the USDA for the spring.
