Although education is not the only reason people have a good standard of living, it helps and a lot. In these times of (almost) recession - skills are the real currency. So even if you take the decision to work in the parks, going there without any skills will set you on the first step of a long ladder, education can help you jump a few steps.

Here are a few links that could help you.
Sciences Positions
Office & Administrative Positions
Law Enforcement Positions
Student Positions

Yes, CV gave you some good links to check out there. If you explore them and do a bit of research into careers on your own and cannot find a career path that seems to fit, I strongly encourage you to go to the career center and talk to one of the counselors there. They can help you decide on a career path, maybe by giving you some advice or a career test to try out that might help a bit.
