So after some research, I've realized that I won't be welding by June. It simply can't happen. If I'd signed up for classes in December, I could probably pull it off as a full-time student, which conflicts with my job. I then started looking for something I could do sooner that would also get me out of the damn warehouse.
The winner is bartending. I can take two weeks of classes and become a certified mixologist at the Cincinnati Bartending School if I pass an interview and they accept me. Tuition is only a few hundred bucks, which I can spare at the moment, and they have a job placement rate of 91%, where I can make as much part-time as I do at SKF full-time. In addition, mixing drinks and pouring beers is something I actually enjoy. I'd rather mix than drink most days. Also, I can do it literally anywhere. I can get a job in Covington now and when I move into the apartment on Dana, move to a bar in University Heights, serving drinks to thirsty Bearcats and Musketeers. The flexible schedule will let me return to school for a real job, too.
Let's hope this works, kids.

Thats an idea! Not to mention bartenders can make some good tips.
Also, you can have several interesting conversations with people while you work and you can come home with exciting stories of customers.
