You could probably do it but you have zero confidence so you fail.
>>
Maybe that's a good sign to do something else? Another trade perhaps?

You will see a ton of train/bus, truck and heavy equipment operators out of work thanks to automation. Big rigs are already being automated in mining (e.g. Canadian oilsands). As a senior project manager for a tech firm contributing to your demise let me just say you will see it in your working life.

If you just love those heavy vehicles you'd have better luck training as an electronics technician maintaining their future versions.

can't tell if you are stupid or not from the post. Well, maybe a little of both.
Moving away from California seems reasonable. Even if a high cat chimpout or large earthquake never happens, you'll still be living in a nice place.
Have you been up to Oregon before?
Do you have funds to sustain you during the job search?
Do you have blue collar work exp?
Can you look for work/call about it from California? It would be no fun to drive 18 hours and end up back in the same place.

It's never taken me more than 3 or 4 days to find a job. Last time it took me 24 hours, if I'd waited 48 hours I could've gotten a way better one too but since I knew I'd be skipping town soon anyway I didn't feel like it.
>blue collar work exp
see above
>call about it from Cali
>no fun driving
I wouldn't drive that far for an interview and drive back. And see above, once I drive out there I do have the funds to get a room as well as a fairly high confidence that it won't be too long before I'm making money. It really doesn't matter too much to me whether I apply here or there, most places are fine with phone interviews and if they aren't, I have no problem driving out there (because like I said, going out there anyway.) If I land a face-to-face interview after an initial phone call, in my field I've essentially already been offered the job pending my showing up to the interview in a wheelchair or with a half-empty bottle of liquor in hand or something.

Oh, I should've added for clarification, I do have several thousand I can throw around as well. But funds isn't much more than gas/food money and two weeks' groceries, my 4x4 is decent and has a nice overnight setup inside. A couple times I've chosen to sleep in it instead of renting just because it seemed preferable, even though I could easily afford a place. Being car-homeless in Santa Cruz involves so much driving/avoiding druggies/cops/angry homeowners that I didn't even really save that much money when you factor in the gas, kek

Haha shit, I guess I've been working in the Sacramento/SF area for a while (too long) and blue-collar wages are ridiculous the closer to San Francisco you get. Sparkies and plumbers can make bank anywhere on the West Coast, but even senior painters and carpenters and shit (employees, not business-owners) can break six figures around the Bay. There are sparkies working part-time making 100k there. I know a plumber who started a company in San Jose who moved to my little town when he retired. Retired at something like 35, bought a house on ~18 acres that he expanded to something like 1800sf and put another house on the property (just because he was fucking bored, I guess) with probably 1200sf and maybe a six-car garage.

I'm sure teachers make an absolute killing around the Bay, too. All those blue-state union politics.

30 years old here.

Job interview as a Paralegal tomorrow. Full time, permanent position. Decent pay.

It's not a job that requires a degree, but the fact I have two (albiet useless) degrees should put me in good stead. This is my first chance at a 'real job' and the fact it's permanent and full time is an amazing bonus.

Wish me luck.

>walmart
In Santa Cruz? No way, most store lots have ~30m time limits - if they even have parking lots. The hipsters taking their Chevy 1500 vans down there and living in SurfDudeLmao is a huge problem. The entire area, not just the city, is engineered against homelessness and car camping specifically.
>awesome place
For the afternoon, maybe. After the first week it just started to feel like a carnival personally. Everything's fake, there is no true local culture (just corporate branded shit and high-dollar restaurants), and I've never been anywhere where the locals are so unfriendly to outsiders. Probably for that DudeSurfLmao trend, honestly. I'm sure when college fags routinely park their vans on the street in front of your house and throw weed parties or play shitty accoustic guitar every night, it gets old real fast.
There's some real beauty outside the city, but it's just not commercialized and relatively untouched because the faggots just want to walk on the boardwalk and go to meme stores. Still doesn't hold a candle to Pacific Northwest coastal forests, but it's comfy in its own way.

Goddamn I hate socializing. For work I've had to spend some fairly long days talking to various people and listening to their shit. At the very least all my hours for the month are filled so I can just sit home for the rest of the month.
I figured I could take it easy, but nope. I bought Tekken 7, refunded it because it didn't feel fun, tried other games and nothing does it for me, tried doing some music and nope, not even that works, tried painting miniatures and only got really angry, tried watching something entertaining and it only made me uncomfortable. The only thing I can do is listen to music music and chainsmoke.

Good idea.

At this point I wish I could just push a button and cease to exist. I don't have a gun or I would have used it already. I don't think I could get a gun with my suicide attempt on record. And I live in a very wealthy, liberal area so I don't think I could find a seller who could skip the background check.

It all feels so tiresome. Maybe if there was some goal I really wanted to achieve things would be different. But I don't want a family. I don't want any fancy material good. I don't want to change the world. I have no creative impulses. I don't care for spiritual matters. I'm just a sack of shit that would rather take the easy way out instead of improving anything.

It honestly sounds like that might be a horrible career path for you. Not necessarily that entertainment is wrong, though. Have you considered finding an independent studio that's much less social-scene-y and more arts-y? Or perhaps working corporate for a few years to build a resume making commercials or safety videos or something?

I work construction so I don't know shit about the film industry, but my gut instincts are telling me that something is off about your little self-summary. Good luck, though! If somebody analyzed me, they'd probably think I was a terrible fit for construction, too.

I'll be 26 in a week, anon. I'm about to head up to Oregon to try to carve out a living, for a few months at least. Maybe a few years. Who knows.

University had me suicidal, I found labor to be much more satisfying and kept my mind off suicide, eventually actually giving me passions (carpentry, mostly) in life that made me a happier person. I think for many people, finding a real job (i.e., not asking welfare moms if they want fries with that) can help a lot with depression, especially if you start slow. But maybe that's just me.

Do you do anything physical, or work with your hands, or anything (past building computers and stuff like that)? I do know getting /fit/ can be difficult when you're depressed but if you can stomach it, that might be very helpful too. Well worth a gym membership, in my opinion.

So I just watch Let's Plays instead, so it feels like I have a friend there to experience the game (which I don't have to play myself) with me. Pretty pathetic, but I've long since stopped caring.

I know that, in general, it's better to do *something* than nothing, even if you don't like it at first. I'm just too lazy to do anything like lift or volunteer or learn a new skill. Lazy and depressed. I just don't have the willpower to make changes to my life, because I'm at the point where I would rather be dead than alive at all.

Sorry if I implied that it was money that I made myself. My parents were both well-salaried members of the middle class and saved up a trust fund for me to pay for college in case I got into an expensive Ivy-League school or something. But I got into a local uni with a bunch of scholarships to boot. So tuition, being in-state, was relatively low, and the scholarships took care of most of it.

Too bad I never actually finished college! With the leftover money, I've basically dumped it into a Vanguard index fund and it's been slowly increasing in value. Hooray, capitalism, I guess.

The most money I made myself was around $11,000 from, believe it or not, buying and re-selling Unusual Hats in Team Fortress 2 via Paypal. That was many years ago, back when I actually played video games myself.

Definitely not sad, it feels like a very empty cynicism. Like of course this is my life but I'm not depressed. Probably closer to disappointment. I always knew this day would come for a long time. I knew when I was 25 but it feels weird when it's actually here.

What do you do for a living, 40-san? Are you happy? Are you independent?
>>
>>38447721
I'm a garbage man, feel free to laugh.

I'm okay, not too happy, not too down. Life is pretty okay for me. I am independent as my parents are long gone.
>>
>>38447821
It's not glamorous but I've always thought garbage collecting was an underrated career.

>>38447821
do you drive the truck, or are you the dude who runs along on the outside and puts the bins inside it?
>>
>>38447995
he is the guy in the truck
>>
>>38447931
Indeed. It's dirty but it pays well and you occasionally find cool stuff in the trash.

>>38447995
I drive the truck but I also help put the garbage.

Are you unionized? Do the senior guys there make a ridiculous amount of money just for driving the shitmobile and being old?

so i think i fucked up boys.
just started new job after years of neetdom
qt girl starts flirting with me. i just kind of ignore it because i dont know what to do. eventually she starts coming on stronger. sends me a bunch of lewd messages on FB. i respond lewdly. now i feel as though she is just fucking with me and is going to show everyone at work all the lewd shit i said so they can laugh at me.

its either that or i've been a closet chad all these years. which isnt likely.
>>
>>38448194
Yep. Also yeah, some of us make a lot of money just out of sheer seniority. I personally do very well but not as high as some of other guys who've been in the game for like 10+ years. I know a guy that has a nice house and supports a wife and 3 kids with his earnings and still seems to have money to spare. Those are the best case scenario cases though, the average garbage man makes a modest salary in the beginning.

>>38448357
Forklifts are nig-tier, though. There's virtually no skill driving a forklift. Not that garbage trucks are the Space Shuttle, but a forklift is basically just a pallet jack with a button.
>t. drive forklifts all the time

I'm going back to college at 28. Not too worried about looking old, because I still get ID'd, but I originally went to college 8 years ago and still don't have a degree. Should have stuck with trades. Fuck.

Type A memes are a hell of a ride.
Be glad if your dysfunction can be negotiated with. I am struggling and getting nowhere and time is running out to turn it around, I fear that after a certain point this behavioral pattern has simply eroded the same pathways for so long the equivalent of a behavioral canyon is formed and your impulses will flow through its path no matter what.

>tfw 27 and failed my CDL test for the 3rd time and I have to take all the written endorsement tests again
at least they didn't rubber stamp you through like they did with me.
Got sent home from Schneider because I didn't know how to shift and got super nervous.
Eventually got hired driving a dump truck, but the job was awful, and they put me in an automatic, so not really what I needed.

Friend is helping me out now, got a job with Gardner, real good oppurtunity with someone with no experiance picking up cardboard behind walmarts, local job, home every night.
I'm really trying not to fuck it up, today the boss gave me a road test. I did alright, but I stalled out the truck 3 times at a stop sign on a slight incline.
I'm trying lads, pray for me.

I hope everything works out for you OP, if you got to repeat it, so be it, but don't leave that school without knowing your shit, or you'll look like a retard everywhere you go.
