Costco?

>>1160775
Where state are you located? I want to break into one of these at night and need info on how their security systems work.

Idk if that's a solid plan, even if you do ramp up to that much of a salary.

It's too dependant on one company, you're basically at their mercy to not having firings or reduce/layoff a few people some time, which is a huge possibility.

Because then you'll be stuff with not really much specialized skills and some experience that's not relevant or valuable for much outside Costco.

This. Unless you're making $160k/yr AFTERTAX... MINIMUM. I don't even want to hear it.

If you don't have any debt or higher education this is a pretty good idea for now. Be patient, build up some net assets and then make some good investments.

There's people right now going into debt to make the amount of money you make. If you can get up to $50k a year in four years, that's what you would make after a few years in nursing or engineering.

I'd stay where you are, and then maybe take a couple night classes at a cc to see if there's any academic branch you like.

People seem to forget that there are much, *much* easier ways to make money than going into medicine or engineering.

I know someone who ended up living out of a truck (but had all the essentials) and ended up making $100,000 in one year by team driving (i.e. always moving shit) with one truck.

>>1160775

Ehhhhh...

I have had like 5 friends that work for Costco. One of them has been there since he was 18, and is 30 now. I think he gets $80k - $90k a year. And he gets 3 weeks vacations.

It's OKAY. If you want a job where you just show up and don't have to think, it's not bad. And as long as you don't fuck up you have a gauranteed future.

But working there is not that fun, they constantly push the whole "hard work" culture, and you have to suck up a little and worship the Costco lifestyle. Also they play favorites a little. The guy who hangs out with coworkers after work, and sucks up to upper management will get promoted faster.

It's a decent life, but there are much better avenues than Costco.

If this is your life plan, I would advise you to do a trade instead. At least then you can open your own business and not be someone elses bitch.

>not working as a railroad conductor

Sorry you don't want to make that 90k next year sitting in a chair dude

Can I join the railroad if I'm a scrawny weak little shit?

>>1162024
Would a server job at a restaurant be better? i dont have amy college senpai

Do it just limit the fagetness

>>1162034
where the fucc do conductors make 90k a yeat

>>1162056
you would make more in the short term but not in the long term

>>1162024
I do have the opportunity to be a welder but it is super shitty and bad for your health. Also you dont make that much, I would only get like $18 after like 4 months of training.

Of course I could get certifications and experience and make like 100k but it really is quite bad for your health in the long term and not something I would to do long term

>>1162017
are they just like an owner operator? doesnt seem that bad desu. I would do it but it seems hard to get into for me ( I am planning on going to college next semester and its not like I could be a part time truck driver )

>>1160959
kek the realities of slow moving boards

>>1162017
There are couples out there who are just born to drive together.

They live out of their truck and rotate shifts. They are always moving freight. An O/O on his own can gross 200k+ before any expenses and insurance (which can be a lot). With two people driving you would never stop pulling in money but you also likely wouldn't have much beyond your truck, not that you'd need it.

Still an interesting life. Just look up custom sleeper truck interiors to get an idea for how some of them have it.

Also people take pets with them from time to time. Most common seems to be dogs, followed by cats and maybe snakes or other reptiles after that.

>>1160775
you make 13 as a cart pusher? Jesus. I design manufacturing robots and experiments for the ISS and I make 13 an hour too

>>1162309
Costco is union.

>>1162034

Canada. I work for CP and there are tons of guys making over 100k. I made 96 last year myself.

>>1162036

Yes. Most of the work aside from track repair isn't all that physically demanding. As a conductor there's a lot of walking and tying on manual brakes but that's about it.

>>1160775
Well if you are planning to work for Costco while attending higher education, you can't go wrong with the wages they are offering. My one piece of advice to you is to seek a career that requires either a degree or certification as a career, that way, you have flexibility in the job offerings. Which state do you live in by the way? 25/hr could go a long way in some rural/ suburban areas across the U.S.

>>1160923
Very true, they say one of the best Associates Degrees out their is Business Management. Maybe you could become an assistant manager after you gain your Associates if you are not lazy and have ambition.

>>1162056
There is no chance of any upward mobility for a higher pay grade; so far as you said, Costco starting is pretty good. I would rank Costco as "gainful employment" especially in rural regions of the U.S. where the cost of living and housing dramatically decrease.

I'm a resident Of New York City so if I wanted to live a "comfortable" life style without any worry of my finances, I would have to seek a better starting pay.

>>1162309
What level of Education have you completed?

>>1162235
I know conductors in Canada that do it.

They have a 8 day work week, where you do 5 shifts. These can be scheduled at any time, as long as they are 8 (maybe 12) hours apart. You have to be able to do all of them. So you end up trading any ability to plan your life, but make some money doing it. To make 90k in your first year, you probably have to do some overtime.

I've got a friend that works there. $13 sounds great when you're young but it's fucking shit to try and retire on. You'll get a few raises but never be a manager because everyone wants that position but they'll hire someone more qualified from another branch. Get a real job and stop chasing the retail dream.

nicer restaurants get better tips and you can get in there once you have a few years experience in a mediocre restaurant
