if at a general store, stock is the best. You are usually in the back, your breaks are longer since most places do not let you stock until the ile is clear, and you can avoid customers by saing you are stocking products

I work at McDonald's and I guy came in today who was high. He kept asking for a pack of cigarettes.

Kept getting angrier and angrier because I wouldn't, well couldn't, give him the cigarettes.

Seriously got about 20x angrier over a space of about 3 minutes.

I seriously just wanted to cracking his scull off the floor over and over. What the fuck do you do? The guy was convinced he was in the right shop and I was just discriminating against him (old black guy)

The security guard was on break, perfect fucking timing of course, as it was quiet.

He eventually left when the security guard came back, as he eventully heard him from the break room when he got even louder

Trying to get a job as a pizza delivery driver, it seems pretty chill desu. Been working as a Teacher Aide (wrangle the slight tards into working basically), it's a trash job because the teachers and school staff have given up on discipline and the kids run roughshod over them. The worst part is the co-workers though, mostly union loving, lefty, middle-aged women who are self righteous as fuck. Pay is good and its not a bad job work wise but I can't stand the environment at all.

I wasn't able to capture how slow he was in this greentext but he would talk so quiet, slow as fuck, using slang I'm pretty sure he made up. I had to ask him multiple times what he was saying before I understood. Wasn't even that annoying of an experience for me because he was the only customer in the store. This is where my tax dollars go though and that makes me sad

How do I find a wageslave job? I need one for the coming few months. Long story short, I'm a college student with no social life or connections, and I feel like I'm going to fail this trimester. I have governmental aid but not during summer, and I'm probably not going to study in Fall.

I had a complete breakdown after uni and spent 5 years as a NEET. Zero references, black hole in my resume. So I basically had to start from scratch with a big box salesfloor position. It was hell at first, not as bad as being a cashier but my anxiety was horrible and my confidence was at an all-time low. I stuck it out and got a lot better, both mentally and physically (another perk of not being a register monkey). Started at $10/hr, 6 months later got a new position in the same store for $10.50, and I should get a yearly pay bump of another 15-30 cents in April. It's decent money for a cyborg who lives with family and doesn't have bills to pay.

here's the thing i struggle with many things (getting a job, keeping a job, gambling addiction) but now im motivated because my grandma said she would match me on a laptop so basically if i put up $500 she'll put up $500. i think she is just desperately trying to get me motivated to get a job and i want a decent laptop and intnernet connection so i can start gaming to get over my gambling addiction.

so how the fuck do i get a job by next week. only honest replies please.

I've worked at the same place since I was 16. That's a large part of it. 12 years at any job will get you a decent paycheck, as long as it isn't straight retail work with no possibility of managerial promotion/raises.

You have to keep in mind that you'd need to get used to probably a lower standard of living in exchange for living on your own. Your food will be cheap and plain. I eat a lot of rice, noodles, broccoli, sometimes chicken. I don't go out to eat often. I don't buy new games ever, all media is either shanghai'd or is on sale.

Even a pet is going to add a lot to it, if it has any medical issues. Food itself is cheap, I had a cat too. If something goes wrong, or it's an old cat that needs medical care, it's going to increase very quickly.

>>35508114
It's possible to do, but can be largely dependent on rent in your area. If you're taking home $1000 a month and the cheapest rent is $750, you're going to have a hard time no matter how cheaply you live.

The only choice past that point is getting a roommate or multiple roommates, but at that point, you might as well live at home rent free.

dirt cheap still costs more than nothing

I don't think that's how th


hhmmm

Anyways, you just gotta look for a job both online and offline.

Some places will only accept online applications and only listen their job offerings online. On the other hand, some places will just put up a sign on the inside of their store window and never bother to put up an ad online. Some places will put a job offering online, but sometimes by the time you read it, or by the time it's even uploaded, they've already found someone.

This is for like, really basic wageslave stuff, obviously.

I work at Target, but not in flow. My store has a pilot grocery program where the flow, instocks, and backroom workcenters were rolled into one for grocery only, and that's what I do.

I bear an unhealthy attachment to many of my colleagues because I am a friendless loser and they are my only source of socialization aside from my boyfriend. Objectively I know that we are NOT friends, I don't hang out with them or talk to them outside work and I have no social media so I don't even know if it's considered gauche to add people you work with on Normiebook or whatever. But I get sad when I don't work with certain people for a week or two, and I would probably legit cry (hopefully in private but knowing me it would be a coin flip) if certain people left.

I'm not sure what to do about this feel. There are two people I think I could potentially bridge the gap into actual casual friendship with, but we work in different departments so I rarely get a chance at sustained social interaction with either of them.
>>
Not fast food or retail but I really enjoy my shit job. I work as a hospital wardsman, basically do most of the grunt work in the hospital: carting around people on beds, cleaning, grabbing supplies and getting bossed around by nurses.

Whats great is the social aspect and game like tasks. I get to talk to a fair few hot chicks, and strangely enough all the radiologists are all sluts yet the cleaners are prudes. Pretty good job though despite the shit $20 AUD hr pay.

I don't have many customer interaction stories, I mostly work in the back, in receiving unloading trucks, minimal contact with customers. Best part is, I put in my earbuds and forget the world and just work.
I do, on occasion get the glances of a cute girl who wanders down into receiving.

Why do people think this?

The only downside i can think to a salary is that if you get a certain salary for say 35 hours a week, you might have to work longer than that, therefore devaluing the salary?

In my last place though, anything extra got paid to you in overtime (1.5x pay) if there was a budget for it, and if not, you could take an extra day if you got to seven hours. So you never didnt get the use of over worked hours.

Also pension, paid sick leave, 5 weeks holiday.

How is being paid per hour better than that?

My current job doesnt have this, so sucks a bit when its busy, but its being brought in.

I work on the UK railways, it's pretty much the epitomy of "the customer can go fuck themselves" school of British customer service. People demand to the manager often and soon wish they hadn't when they finally turn up.

you sound like me when i first got hired. been working the same job for 3 years now as a systems analyst. it was bomb as fuck for the first year or so, until we started getting into long stretches of overtime to meet deadlines, and i came to realize that no matter what i will never truly be happy. everything gets old. hopefully you don't have the same need for constant change.

IT is where the non-programmers in computer fields go. IT has nothing to do with programming really(Unless your the single IT guy, in which you get a programmers duty too)

t.IT grad

P.S learn some basic programming lad. Java or C++ or maybe CSharp. Watch some tutorials on some of better windows products, and if you havent yet, look into a A+ cert or something, even if its just to prove to yourself you can learn it.

State jobs = law enforcement or internal security guards
Try looking on your state's job website. If that fails, check out your county's. County is far easier to get into since state has loops.
>>35524945
You are a security guard. You do not have any cop privileges. If you got training, you'll know what to do. Basically it's a scale of hostility from mild to severe (about to beat the shit out of you). There is protocol for handling each one of these scenarios. Work for US Security Associates. They should give you the right training.

>Work retail
>Have a cute, hard working, co-worker
>We work extremely well together
>She gave me her number
>She wants me to change my availability so we work the same days every week

What is this I'm feeling?

>>35525837
Your mom would know that you got yourself fired. Just find a better job and stop being shitty.
>>
>>35528903
Down the line you'll become a liability to management if you both have a falling out and are at each other's throats.

>>35527526
Maybe at first, but after the first few months that feeling will dissipate quickly.

Little over a month at my job and today I started on the phones, just cold-calling our clients and scheduling appointments for the inspector to go visit their business.

I was super nervous and imagined all the different things they could ask or say. There are surprisingly a lot of variables. My first one asked something I wouldn't have been prepared for if I hadn't stalled before making the call and considered all the possibilities and making it kind of a drawn out process to even begin training. I was definitely stalling for time.

After I hung up my coworkers complimented me and said I did a great job and was a natural. I don't know if they were stretching the truth to make me feel better but it felt good.

I wasn't shaking or experiencing too many symptoms of nervousness but I was close. My trainer said that he was shaking and his voice was cracking the first time he did it.

Overall it wasn't too bad. I was much calmer the moment I started dialling the number than just before when my brain was processing all the possibilities.
