There's work to be had

Today's Globe carries a report on jobs for the asking, and pretty well-paying ones, at that:

Some jobs pay living wages, are in fast-growing fields, have lots of openings, and don't require bachelor's degrees.

Most of them aren't glamorous, but they won't be offshored any time soon either, according to a newly published analysis by the nonprofit agency Jobs for the Future. Among them: truck and bus driving, nursing, construction, and computer-tech jobs.
