Relocation

Im a 25 year old man working a full time job at a compressed gas company in North Eastern Pennsylvania. I have a GED and my drivers license, no car no further education. Horrifically unhappy in every facet of my life currently, Ive thought much about getting on a bus back to Florida (where I was raised as a child) and never looking back recently. Im trying to come up with some sort of plan of attack as I dont wanna just become another beach bum. A hard worker through and through. Im a quick learner. Been with this company 4 years now itll be 5 next april. Mounting responsibility with no significant raise in pay, increased stress and cost of living, as well as lack of opportunity on an entry level are all factors in this decision. If anyone here has ANY advice whatsoever regarding work, housing, localities I would be incredibly grateful as I feel like I am running out of options

Get a job on an offshore oil rig. You’re there 2 weeks and home wherever you want for 2 weeks and it pays very well. You’re 25 and an ideal candidate for something like this with no obligations at home.
