I don't mean like a ceo or something just a job that isn't shitty that doesn't require previous working experience
>>
>>18339903
Sorry buddy, but it is a buyer's market in the workforce right now, and it will be for many years to come.
You've no right to be picky, even if you have formal education (at 18, you likely don't).
>>
>>18339903
You're looking for a shortcut to something that basically doesn't exist.

>>18339882
Warehouse jobs usually hire on the fly. Like they're just looking for help.

I know for a fact Amazon hires literally everyone ( i worked there). VERY high turnover because its very physically demanding. Walking about 11 hours with 2 small as fuck breaks. But any job is a good job.

Also you can fake things on your resume. Like say you worked on a random project. And as a reference you can make a google voice account, it gives you a secondary number you can relay to your phone. So someone calls 1234567 and it rings on your phone thats 7654321 without them knowing, and just give a good recommendation. Also just ask friends or parents that you'll list them as a reference.

Let me share something.

A very good friend of mine is approaching his thirties. The only job he ever worked was right out of college for an employer who only hired him because his parents happened to have hired his daughter for her first job decades ago. A "your parents took care of my daughter, so I'll return the favor" type deal.

Grossly unqualified for the job. No experience, paid decently. After a few years, due to ownership changes and politics, he was fired.

That was 2014. He has not found a single employer who will hire him during these past three years. Worked two gigs total since that time. One was an internship that lasted three weeks before they told him to not come back, and the other was day laboring for a few local events.

This friend has applied to jobs of all levels, and has recently laser-focused on retail and entry-level jobs that don't require any experience. He can't get a single break.

Now, what justifies your expectation that you can be picky at 18?
>>
>>18339972
because i'm a lot smarter and more clever than the dumbass in your story. I refuse to work manual labor and my talents can't be wasted on retail or food services
>>
>>18339972
not OP but what the fuck is wrong with your friend cant hold a job. Is he unlikeable or really lazy or gross or what. kinda interested
>>
>>18339980
He's a fucking idiot who is too proud to ask for help, lives with his parents so there's no pressure from them to get a job, and his current girlfriend (I have no clue how he still has one) is still in the honeymoon phase with him.

Our social circle has kindly offered to hook him up with jobs in our own extended networks, to which he literally declines every single one of them.
>>
>>18339979
But not clever enough to figure out a "good job for an 18 year old guy with no experience".

Hm.
>>
Amazon will hire anyone especially during seasonal times of the year. And you can work from home
>>
>>18339979
I don't know what made you think you could have a job at 18 with no experience that requires you to be smart and clever. Jobs like that are usually reserved for people with a significant working history.
>>
>>18339979
>my talents can't be wasted on retail or food services
Your "talents"? El-Oh-fucking-El. Get over yourself. You're a high school graduate. Basically everyone in this country has or gets one of those. Depending on your college major you MIGHT start landing internships related to it after a year or 2, but until then there are few things you can do.
>>
>>18339979
Are you also more smart and clever than other 18 year olds? What was your GPA? What are your talents exactly?
>>
I work in Human Resources and I can tell you, unless you are applying for a job at a small company or you know someone, you won't get any further than the application process. It's difficult to convey any of that "cleverness" on a resume. You'll be screened out and tossed aside based on any one of a number of factors but most likely no experience in the job you are applying. Most jobs except for things like food service, customer service etc have 100's of applicants per job posting. 3 or 4 get chosen for an interview and one gets the job. Good Luck!

You're kidding, right?

In France, there is a diploma you have to pay called BAFA which allows you to be a youth worker. You might have an equivalent in your country.

4.0 college student here, learn some fucking humility man.
I've worked two jobs, both sucked and work me like a dog, but you know what? It's the best I can do right now, and I'm lucky to have them. Even later, have college and what not, I have to be lucky and try my best to get a good job. The market isn't as terrible as everyone is saying in this thread, quit one job and got another one two months later, only took calling the place every other day till they said yes. But you take what you can fucking get man. You don't own the world, the world owns you.
>>
Jesus fucking Christ. Talents? Get your head out of your ass, you fucking child.

Actually, don't. I love seeing people like you drown and then reading your bitchfests. I get a fucking hard-on from the schadenfreude. Keep screwing yourself over and blaming it on others. Go on, I won't stop you.
>>
>>18340369
This. Fucking princess afraid to break a nail.
>>
>>18339882
OP, if this faggot >>18339979 is you, then you're a snarky piece of work.

If you want a shortcut, you'll just end up doing more work than others your age in exchange for an extreme advantage.

>Does that sound enticing, fuckwad?

If you're still reading, then perhaps you're not the pussy I thought you were.

Perhaps.

If you're actually smart, then pass the ASVAB. You can easily get a job as a Nuclear Scientist with the Navy or an Aeronautical Engineering gig with the Air Force. If you're a bit less witty, you can go into Military Intelligence with the Army.

What's more, on top of the training and paid experience, you get a free four year college stint in whatever you feel like wasting taxpayer money on!

>Underwater Basket Weaving?

Go for it!

>Blindfolded Dick Sucking?

It's up to you!

The best part is, all of those faggots in your little teenybopper high school are gonna be smoking dope and flipping patties while you're posting pics of your successes and saving money for future events.

You'll be getting a free degree while the college kids are paying student loans well into their thirties. If you want an edge, it's the best chance you'll ever have.

And your pride will only swell in the process. Make a move, kid.

Be that motherfucker I know you're dreaming of becoming.

Wtf man im op i didn't say that

Retail, janitorial work or hard labor (construction/yardwork).

Those are your options.
