I dumped my job at 30 and went back to study. 33 now, almost done with school and have some mint job options in front of me. Best thing ive done tbh.
I did this but ended up with the opposite effect so your mileage may vary
Thus my concern for that move. I'm a single guy, with a 7 year old daughter. Taking time "off" to study will be an amazingly risky option.

That is interesting. If you don't mind me asking - What did you do before study? And what did you go to study?

Have you ever considered becoming a Courier? A Courier in Wellington is a pretty good job if you know your way around!
I'm sure it is. I'm also sure that being a courier doesn't exactly "open doors" so to speak. Please, for the love of god, spare the jokes on that one...

Any further education appeal to you? Maybe a part time qualification if you cant afford to leave full time work, or a full time qual and part time work if you can afford it.
It does appeal. My only issue being that further education would mean I'd be stuck at home for another X amount of years. I'm already 26, and at this rate I'll be living at my parents until I'm 40. It makes me sad. I have various financial obligations with my daughter also, so with the combination of living costs and child costs, further education would mean more debt, less money and being stuck for longer. There is the weight that, further education could mean a job I want at money that is good. But with this current economy, these are very much "maybes". If someone has any light to shed on this? Feel free.

I'm a plumber/gassfitter by trade (qualified) and have been working at Harvey Norman for the last 2 years as their technician (more like resetting fuckwits email passwords and baby sitting morons). There is some little technical work to it, but nothing aspiring. Just basic level trouble shooting.
I don't really want to go back to the trade. Body destroying dangerous work.
I don't want to work at Harvey Norman because of the following; It's embarrassing, terrible pay, outdated business model, nothing to learn, no training, nothing to internally aspire to, no fun, over worked, customers in a place like that are horrible, horrible closed minded superiors, ridiculous and narrow minded egos.
At this point, with a 7 year old daughter in Wellington who I love and do not want to leave, I'm feeling like I have very VERY limited options to do anything other than idiot work.
Any advice/job offers welcome.

It looks fucking retarded.
Those Titans look like they're made of cardboard and bounce around the tight maps like ping pong balls.
They don't look like they have any weight to them.
Another Alpha being sold as a AAA title. Fuck right off with that garbage.

Mac Users.... A new Steve Jobs tribute statue designed by Serbian sculptor Dragan Radenovic About as far removed from the general Mac user as possible I'd say. It's like a...BDSM dildo.

It's not good on a "I know nothing about computers" consumer level with bottom of the barrel hardware...
so a mac then.....
Oh why so rude  Intel does such well so amaze these days. I would like to challenge someone who is anti-mac/sceptical to use nothing but a retina MacBook for a year. I'll provide the computer, and your bring your A game level for an honest review.
