I recently took a test to get into the ann arbor pipefitter union and was 1 point away from passing. Doing interior trim work for the past seven years isn't bringing me joy or enough income. I like working with my hands and putting things together but I don't know what to do for a new career.

Can you take the test again? You can still be a pipe fitter if that’s still what you want to do.

My family mistreated me when I was younger, and now that I don’t live at home, they don’t call or bother to look for me, because frankly, I think they have a hard time admitting what happened - and will never apologize to me either. If I don’t call, or occasionally go see them during the holidays, we would never talk. Some of them are growing old (health-wise), and I’m scared this entire situation is just irreparable. Has anyone ever gone through anything similar? Any advice or thoughts?
