I'm 23 and will starting a job that most people don't

Work ethic counts for a lot, but I'd also recommend you listen more and speak less. That always makes you seem older and wiser, and the people who would resent you for being ahead of where they were will be more likely to want to give you advice.

I recommend 'An astronaut's guide to life on earth' for more advice on how to make a good first impression at a tough job.

Tl;dr advice: Noone really cares if you are working 60 or 80 hours per week as long as you GET SHIT DONE. Do your job. Do it efficient and good.
And don't be a pussy if a middle aged cuck cracks jokes about your age.

Work out and get tattoos- that will intimidate thos old ass crackaz.
fucking crackaz keeping young niggaz down

give them the impression you're young and willing to learn.

This anon is correct. I worked with many older people when I was much younger and the best thing you can do is keep quiet and gather knowledge. That isn't to say you shouldn't ever talk, but just don't blather on like young folk tend to do when trying to impress people.

>>1623201
what's the job?

>>1623237
Totally agree on the listen more than you speak. I already live by that philosophy. If I'm talking, I'm not learning.

>>1623245
True, true. Quality over quantity. I don't give a shit about the jokes, I just don't want to lose power because old fuckers won't listen when it matters.

>>1623324
I don't care about the jokes, just want to get some modicum of respect.

>Wash it off when you are home
>Talk about your prostate a bunch and go to the toilet alot
>Talk about your love for coffee
>Wear shoes fit for the occasion

It will be. But then the lazy fags will criticize u. U cant win them all. Most co workers are like roomates. They suck shit. This is why i work alone. So long as u can keeo on top of the drama. And if u can try and grow a man beard. Id just show up and pull my dick out bro. Do your work and act as mature and respectful as u can. Expect to be the office bitch rather u work 5 hours a week or 100. If they let u pull 6 12 hour shifts fucking go for it. Have a quart bottle of ky lube ready every paycheck for you taxes.
