If you want to go on the employment road, go to as many interviews as you can.

If you have some available cash and want to start a business it depends on our country's market.

You can always trade bitcoins with one rule (buy low sell high) or apply that rule to a product that you know well.

It's all about risks you are willing to take anon.

Where are you located OP?

Midwest of the U.S.

Yeah, taking risks are pretty much the only times I've advanced anywhere in life. I've never been able to get anywhere by sheer skill. Thanks anon

>The whole "working your way up to supervisor" thing is just a meme in factories. I've been in several factories and have seen at least a hundred hard workers that had been there for 20+ years working hard and not been promoted unless they were related to the higher-ups.

Well, see, there is a problem here, which i can't stress enough telling everybody. It doesn't matter even if you work 2 million years at an industry, if you do not grow the balls to ask for something bigger and risk getting fire, you never will.

Having been a "boss" for some time, i can tell you. I never wanted a spineless cuck to be promoted and ruin parts of the industry by not being able to hold himself together, present himself, and even lie about his achievements successfully.

If you want a promotion, you should try showing that you are -awesome- at what your job requires, awesome enough to seem valuable but not awesome enough that they turn you to a task mule.

Add to that a little bit of trust from your boss to you, and you can ask for a promotion. If you don't, you will just be stuck there, as the nameless mass. If you do though, know that there is a chance (smaller if you do the aforementioned) that you will get ousted, so be prepared for the consequences.

tl;dr Fight for your promotion faggot.

Yes, I know all of this. I've tried everything, I'm probably just unlucky enough to have only been in the factories where they have the "good ol' boy, he's related to so-and-so" mentality.

Though at my current job, when I got hired they saw that I'm studying Computer Science. Said something about possibly making me an IT intern in the Fall when business slows down. Though my coworkers said they're snakey and say all kinds of things just to keep you on board.

I'll try and "grow the balls" to ask for that internship in the fall.

Remember, before growing the balls, take precautions. Make yourself valuable (or seem like that, even if you are not), catch them on a good day, do some goodwill the past few days, get some reasoning ready ("look you bitches, i did this and that and increased your income by 0.1% by myself, give me more freedom and i can help more") etc.

Oh, and when you encounter them act as if you are Genghis Khan and they are your about to be brides, but for some reason you wanted to be cuddly that day.

Sheer skill is mandatory but not the key. As in products, marketing is the key.

Market yourself, take risks, take chanses.

It may sound bullshit, but put yourself in a hard situation and find the solution.

As an example, you can quit your job. That way, you will be in a difficult situation and will force yourself to find a better solution.
Plus, let's be real. What have you lost in this situation? A shitty job? Shitty jobs are anywere.
