if you like math, you can usually get an accounting degree in 2 years.

I would try to find anything in healthcare that you wouldnt mind.Even if it was working on the equipment. This area is pretty much recession proof.

Call your community college's job placement center and ask them. They can quickly tell you which graduates are most in demand.

There is a perenial shortage of qualified electricians. Others include:
diesel mechanics
mechanical drafters (CAD & 3-d modeling)
CNC programmers
Skilled plant maintenance personnel (that can trouble-shoot & repair electronic CNC/robotic equipment.. not just grease & oil stuff)

Anything that requires technical knowledge will always be in demand. Health care, energy (oil, gas, power generation), and infrastructure (roads, bridges, pipelines, power grid) industries are the most recession-proof.

Lower-skill manufacturing jobs are the ones that are going overseas and/or being automated out of existence. Avoid anything related to that.

Focus on jobs that require you to use your noggin a lot, and chances are those are the ones that companies are having trouble filling.

Being the times are the way they are, I say look for something in law enforcement. Like police officer or something. Not sure how old you are and how much phyical activity you want, but if I was younger and thinner I'd look into police work or CSI, if you have the stomach for it.
