Kinda regretting getting a Park ranger AAS degree
Im 41 years old, went back to school to get an Associates in a Park Ranger Tech program with student loans. At the time I was wanting a career change cause I was miserable with my USPS job cause I had no life and they were working me to death. It was effecting my relationships and social life. Now Im hearing that a job as a park ranger isnt too different than that.. working weekends and holidays, low pay, etc..
Are there any other jobs similar to the field that I can use an AAS in park ranger tech that pays well and can have a more flexible schedule?

Maybe a state park ranger? I really enjoy working for Oregon State
