>>56284926
Wake up at 9 usually at work by 10 am. Don't work super hard at work. Usually browse reddit half the day and work the other half. Just try to be as helpful as I can to various groups. People think I am more important than I really am at the company I work for.

Stop working at 6 and start drinking with others at the office in our bar. Might go to a card room to play poker or go out and have fun.

Life is pretty good but San Francisco is expensive as hell. I am in now way rich just middle class.

How much time do you spend on your own living space? How much time alone vs. in public? Are there any recreational activities your good at? Sorry for the bombardment, i am curious to anyone living outside of the wage slave retarded can't tie my own shoes life.

It seems like anyone skilled at anything has a shit job & doesn't do anything. But anyone with a good job only does the job & doesn't have anything to them but their job.

Guess that's the difference between being a kid and an adult?

Lmao. Retard alert.

You so realize the mid sized cities are where it's at right?

Charlotte, Austin, Chattanooga, Huntsville.

I could go on and on about small to mid sized cities where tech jobs are abundant. Plus the cost of living is way better.

Try not being retarded and maybe you'll get a job.

>>56289727
For IT/network support/network engineering/pretty much anything that's not programming the job market is much less competitive outside those cities. I know people here in TN that make 6 figures as a sysadmin.

Where I live housing is pretty expensive, overpriced imo, but if the bubble pops it means more problems than it would fix.
