Dude, you're (or your if you prefer) an aviator. Maybe you should grow a set and some thicker skin while you're at it. Almost ALL of us are looking down the barrel of a gun right now. You're (your) not alone. Levity is wonderful at stress reduction, especially when offered up among those with shared sacrifice. Look how many guys responded with it? If you're (your) looking for guidance from a bunch of guys who only know how to fly airplanes and where the best happy hours are you may want to widen your aperture a bit. Bullschitt and beers are what we do best. Don't be that guy that none of us wants to fly a 4 day with.
If you're YOUNG, this will likely just be a mild speedbump. Hell, you may even wind up with an ancillary career and or side business.
Welders make good money and are in demand, always.
Good luck to you and to all of us.

Guys, I apologize. I lost my s$?t earlier. Its been a rough 24 hours personally. I apologize, seriously. My grammar demonstrated I probably should have just pressed the “OFF” button on my phone. I feel for everyone and want no more for this to end for everyone with the least amount of pain.
Once again, my apologies.

I can promise you that virtually everyone with any useful healthcare training/credential will have jobs no matter what happens because hospitals, FEMA, etc., are going to need people with even basic skills to be able to take metrics (pulse, BP, temperature, UA, etc). Nursing takes too long to get trained and unless you're already an electrician, skilled trades like that also take years including an apprenticeship before you're even at the journeyman level.
Nursing aids get a month or two of training and in the coming weeks they will be more in demand than a lot of other healthcare trades like dentists and optometrists because of the strain in nurses right now. You want a skill that is easily transferable, fast to learn and just about universal in the USA, do this. You won't be making six figures but it will be a steady job guaranteed.
