I currently do prep work at panera, its shit pay at $8.75 an hour. I basically just turn my earbuds all the way up and ignore people for 7-9 hours a day while prepping food. I got the job as part time while in college but now I'm dropping while i can still get a full refund because I can't stand school. My plan is to try and land a job at a real kitchen and hopefully work my way up since I enjoy making food that people enjoy and am pretty proficient when it comes to kitchen work.

>live alone, hate myself and drink too much
this is really the only thing I'm afraid of. My parents really want me to finish a bachelors instead of just getting a job with my associates degree so I can better support myself but honestly I don't really care what I end up doing as long as I have at least one friend, or, dare I say it, a qt3.14. There is a pretty cute chick working at panera with me, thinking maybe I might ask her out to lunch or something, only problem is we never really talk since I always work a different position

I usually made less than that when I was doing concrete full time. I also had to pay for gas and car maintenance. Concrete is also incredibly physically demanding.

I work as a night auditor/security guard at an independent hotel. $13/hr and all the shitty continental breakfast food you can eat. I just watch youtube videos on my phone and listen to the police scanner while watching the security cameras. Every half hour I walk around the property. Hardest thing I have to deal with is guests being stupid. Most people I talk to are transients who are tresspassing and 96% of the time they leave as soon as they see you, the other 4% of the time I let the police handle it. Sometimes drunk guests do stupid shit like try to fight you or pass out but most of the time they're entertaining.

Most robots should consider being night auditors. You get to be nocturnal and barely have to do anything besides occasionally refrain from being an asshole to stupid guests.

Oh yeah and I forgot to mention I live alone and drink too much. Don't hate myself but don't like myself either. Despite being pretty intelligent I dropped out of college because of terminal sadbrains and now I'm wondering what the hell I should do.

I don't work for a big firm and thats kinda the way I want it. The workload is pretty easy most days and the internet is unrestricted so i can watch youtube in the background.

>>39369700

I didn't because I'm not technically a security guard, I'm just a night auditor who does security-related duties. To actually work for a private security company where you wear a uniform, yes, you do need to have what's called a "guard card." It's pretty easy to get, you just need to drop a couple hundo and take a simple ass class. I'm thinking about doing it.

I'm 5'8" actually, but I took Krav Maga for a few years so I know how to handle myself. My co-workers don't even know though. Like I said before, 96% of the people you deal with leave immediately and the other 4% you just let the police handle, so it's not like you actually have to be physically intimidating. The only problem is that I have guests who drink too much think they can pick a fight with me when I tell them to shut up and stop yelling in the halls at 3 AM. I can't actually fight them even if they try to punch me or shit because I'd get fired, but I do have the satisfaction of getting to evict people.

99% of my shifts are super quiet though and most people are pretty nice. Plus, I live in a beach town, so I occasionally get to see a few qtz.

nepotism, it's a government job lads
>>how is your current life situation
I'm working and studying currently, trying to manage both has me constantly stressed, since I'm new to the formal job world and I don't yet know too well the forms and such. Some times it feels as if I'm just looking at myself from another place, the office environment still feels so foreign, I can't seem to find the way to get used to it, the small talk with coworkers, having to pretend about shit I don't, having to make myself appear normal when they ask me things, having to move in that atmosphere, it's dense, it's really exhausting.
I'm also in a ldr, which is why i took the job in the first place so I could save money for plane tickets.
All in all, I can say I went from a disgusting depressed slob to a disgusting slob with a job and money. I don't really have time to spend it, and when I do, I lack energy, which sucks balls.

Rec me a hobby robots- I need something else outside of adult life responsibilities.

Accountant only makes 44k? I thought you retards make at least 60k.
>>
>>39370062

Yeah it's not bad, but it's not as comfy as you may think. The sleep cycle will fuck with you. I have to take my adderall to keep me going during my shift and I have to drink a big 'ol glass of whiskey to sleep because my body still doesn't want to sleep after daybreak. You would think it's a great job to just sleep through but I'm on camera literally every second I'm there (except for the breakfast room) and this town is overrun with crusty jugglers so I have to keep a constant eye out for dudes looking to steal from cars.

Also, $13/hr here isn't very much. Minimum wage is like $10.50 (not sure if state or county) but this is also a college town and now that we have this huge recent influx of out-of-state students and rich chinese fucks, every landlord is raising their rent. Luckily I live with a middle-aged lady who has been here long enough to have rent control, I was pretty lucky to get this place.

But yeah overall, if you're the kind of robot whose autism manifests as gabbiness and helpfulness, night auditor is a good job.

Depends on the kind of accounting. If you work for an accounting FIRM you probably get paid a lot more because you are assigned high-end contracts. If you're independent or work for a small business, you won't make as much.

I work at Target as a cashier for $10 an hour. It's pretty nice! I can wear any red shirt I want with khakis, the team is awesome and funny, I'm starting to make friends with my coworkers, and I get to eat popcorn or a hot dog during my break. It's a really easy job so I'm also living the dream. I'd be happy to stay there for the rest of my working career, becoming a pharmacist or getting a husband to support me while I cashier. I'd prefer to be a pharmacist to help out my husband with cash, though.

Also, a story:
>girl comes through my line, crying and rubbing her eyes and drinking a sprite
>I scan her items in silence and then get too curious and feel like I have to help
>ask her what's wrong
>"my boyfriend is stalking me and broke into my car and I see him following me"
>;__;
>i try to comfort her
>finish ringing up her items, she pulls out her card to pay
>card rejected three times
>she starts to cry and panic about having opened her sprite already and had no other way to pay
>i pay for her sprite despite her telling me it's okay
>she leaves

I hope she's okay.

I'm probably more retarded than they are (unless they're literally retarted). Burger flipping sounds too fast paced for me and I don't want to risk burning myself. I saw burger flippers at the restaurant I was a dishwasher at and it didn't look appealing.

I hated it. I felt so stupid there and inferior to everyone else. I remember in my low skill college algebra class we were getting our exams back and I failed badly and everyone else passed and they could understand it but I didn't and I came close to crying. But even worse than math is English and writing papers. The night before I dropped out I tried for 6 hours to write the essay that only required 4 paragraphs. A one page essay. I couldn't even do that. I only came up with half of the intro and that was so shitty I just deleted it. Even if I could write I wouldn't want people to see it

dude burger flipping is fast paced but it is not hard. I used to work as a burger flipper and had these retarded ass shifts (thanks to my dick manager) that had me working till 4am closing nights on saturday (when all the bars let out) and then working opening to close on sunday (running the whole store basically). One of these days I was so fucking tired and basically blacked out on the grill. Like 5 minutes later I came to and asked my buddy what the fuck just happened, he said I just kept on working and didn't even notice anything.

Big 4 audit senior in a third world banana shithole.

The pay is horrendous, given that I am a "brown spic".

The experience is the best on finance, accounting or related professions.

It's kinda complicates, doing the work is the easiest thing, overlooking problems and obstacles or planning ahead is kinda complicated, gotta deal with the major depression and addiction at the same time. Using all the time wherever you are plus working plus using at night plus being smashed all the time complicates everything.

Shit. A month ago I was in a great relationship that I thought was getting better. I went to china with qt3.14, spent a lot of time prior saving by working as a caregiver. Proud of my trip since it was the first thing that I really ever accomplished. We were rocky for awhile, but we fell in love again during the trip.

In a layover in Beijing leaving china she called me and her parents thought that I do drugs when it was her brother who did it, so I took the fall.

Her parents told her I might not be a fit, since im not rich (she is), i make her care less about her reputation (she was a fob), make her less classy, worry about money, too dependent, depression affected her etc. All true, but I was trying to get my shit together, we both were, and I thought that she would be there with me. She broke up with me on the phone continents away, telling me I might have a chance if I figure out my things, like job and school. (Do note she has been emotionally abusing me, and I her with my insecurity a la Gerry Smith)

Then I found out she's pregnant.

It's been hard livibg at this point. I think about suicide every day. Parents would disown me if I took meds. Nicotine helps so i self medicate with gum, Ive since quit smoking.

The incident has since exacerbated my episodes of depression when managed by nicotine. Feel guilty, angry, sad, suicidal ideation. Call her too much during depression, even though knowing it reduces chances of healing relationship from both of us. So fucking lonely, she was my best friend, literally why I woke up in the morning. I had another friend, but she's been growing apart and will move soon.
I am so lonely. I really love her

Work is okay. Not that hard, but I suck at the pacing and timing. I make a lot of shit mistakes.

Damn, I thought I had the worst job on here but I guess not.

I'm a janitor at a government office building which sounds terrible but honestly it's pretty nice as far as manual labor goes. I clock in alone whenever I want past 5 o'clock, empty some trash cans, restock the bathrooms, spot vacuum and run a rag over anything that needs it. The whole job takes 2 hours max.

The rest of the night I exercise, surf the web, talk on the phone, play video games and read. It even pays pretty good and has excellent benefits.

Pays $21.50, but 10% bonus for nights and time-and-a-half overtime opportunities abound (stacks with 10% night bonus for about 35.50 an hour).

I like it but it's in the 911 system so it's stressful as fuck. I'm not bad at the job but I'm always nervous I'll fuck up cardiac arrest calls or other serious situations. I'm getting better at it though as weeks go on. Just a summer gig so I can take a quick 8k post tax back to uni to uni to pay rent.

>>39372540
Also before any autists ask, no you shouldn't do this. The course legitimately requires studying and effort, and social interaction is a MASSIVE part of the job. Also, you have to get along with partners.

If you're incompetent or autistic maybe you can get a job like this, but you'd have to work for a private company doing transports for 10-12 an hour depending on your area. 911 is where the decent money is but only the competent people get the coveted jobs. In fact us 911 folks look down on cuck transport agencies.

I'm a waiter at a high end Japaneses restaurant. I usually make anywhere from $100-$200 a night. I used to work 40-50hrs a week, but since I'm back in school I only work less than 40hrs.

desu even though the money is good, I fucking hate it. All my coworkers are getting on my nerves and I just feel like I will be stuck here forever. I am back in community college, but I really don't think I belong here. I'm really bad in school and the only reason why Im back in school is because I want to try and get a "real" job.


I also fucking hate seeing all the people I went to high school with come in. A lot of them are done with their degrees, have great jobs, have gotten married and have bought their first homes.

I know the pay sounds like a lot but it's still not enough to move out and not live in a ghetto where I live. Also, the atmosphere is so oppressive and awful it isn't worth it. I honestly miss working at Starbucks. I was making a pittance sure, but I didn't feel nearly as much like a wagecuck, and there I was literally making drinks for soccer moms and roasties, and I got to stand up and move around. Now I sit all day so my back hurts like a mother fucker. Here I feel like I'm on fucking parole because my manager hates me. It would be a bearable job if she weren't breathing down my neck and pissy with me all the time. If I so much as look away from my computer I get threatened. The ironic thing is all the other division managers like me except for the one I work directly under.. I keep telling myself come December once I've saved enough money I can go risk looking for work somewhere else but with all the expenses I have to pay (car repairs, new computer parts, etc.) I don't know if I will.
Besides, I think I'm just too autistic for an office job.

I'm down to give legitimate advice if you want it, but I can't give solid answers for people that live in smaller cities... I imagine that path is really hard.

I feel like no matter what you do, you end up in the cubicle farm at least for a bit, but it depends on what that cube environment is to you. I have a bunch of space and a big window, at a nice corporate office, with a lot of schedule flexibility, unlimited paid vacation, etc... Just being in a cube doesn't make it Office Space.

this might not help your situation (I've never really thought of myself as an emotional help type of person at all) but if I was you I would do what I said and then go and buy a car if I didn't have it and a bunch of canned food and shit. Then I would move out into the woods and try to survive as long as possible. Build myself a cabin before I begin, grow myself a garden that can start feeding me once my food stocks run low, things like that.
I'm not the type of person who ever contemplates suicide so like I said this probably wont help, but if I did contemplate suicide, I would first try to live life as simple as possible and try to accomplish something like being able to live off the earth itself without any outside help just for the heck of it. If you're going to off yourself, why not prove to yourself and the world that life could be simpler and more happy for everyone first?

after graduating, i just starting applying for any position i was remotely qualified for. It took a month and over 100 applications to get this job.
>how am i?
I've had major problems with depression my entire life. I often ask myself if I'm happy, and I can't answer that. So then i ask myself what cluld i do to improve that situation. In the past it was fairly obvious with securing a decent job, build up savings, and make some friends to talk to. But these days I just feel so directionless. I'm trying to cut back on the liquor because I think thats creating more problems than its worth. Last time i made it 6 days without getting drunk. This time im going to try and skip a weekend.

Wht not take jobs doing increasingly dangerous work? Maybe after youve driven convoy trucks in civil war africa for a year you could find a reason to live, like how in deer hunter christopher walken becomes addicted to russian roulette to feel alive.
>>
>>39376036
I've honestly thought about it. Maybe not that level of dangerous but something more demanding than office work. The problem I find with office work is that it commands just enough attention to keep me from going on autopilot, but the content is not interesting enough for me to care, want to do it, or not go insane from boredom. Really, I don't even want it to be dangerous, just something with some variation to it and a little excitement than just processing the same order forms for 9/10 hours a day.

4. I was outright rejected maybe 10 times. I liked the rejection though, because it was like finishing a project. I knew I wasn't getting hired there so to just move on. Its the companies that never respond to you that suck.

Honestly most tech companies are slow dinosaurs. Hell, i just got an email today from a position I applied to 5 months ago. They want to set uo an interview, but I have no interest in moving again so suddenly.

As the guy who posted the idea about the log cabin thing I think depending on your view on life you could either choose something like I said or something like this guy said. One of them moves you towards the point where you start feeling reasons to live and the other moves you towards a point where you just live, without reason, because it's what you do. Personally I strongly believe that living with reason is overrated, why can't we just live?
House cats just go day to day lounging around, what makes us any different from them if we can find a way to provide for ourselves? Why do we have to find some greater purpose in life?
>>
>>39376104
Dunno the guy's name but I know it was some French philosopher who said man's greatest anguish comes from our need to apply reason and purpose to a random universe that inherently lacks reason and purpose. So yeah, I agree.

I worked as a Banker at a branch for a few years, then when they launched this position I had the right combination of experience, charisma and drive to impress the bosses that interviewed me and got it. Apparently they hired 70 out of 1200 in person interviews, and even greater undisclosed amount of applicants that didn't pass the initial filters, so I feel pretty good about this win.
>how is your current life situation
It's ok, I was looking to leave my branch because I slept with 4 out of 5 female coworkers and I couldn't handle the pressure anymore. But now I'm doing it again, I have this stupid desire to sleep with at least 1 in each of my 10 assigned branches. This can only end in ruins.

I don't have any expensive habits nor do I own anything fancy. I'll be able to save 20k a year for retirement, 10k for emergency, and still live super comfy.

I love my job, I have some really great friends, and I'm beginning not to give a fuck about women. That being said, if I could find a super cute gf, I'd be living the dream, and probably would leave r9k until she dumped me.

I don't see a way out of this hole. I graduated with a BA in political science in 2011. My 3.6 GPA from a mediocre state school is nothing to brag about. Other than that I have nothing to sell except years of experience in dead end minimum wage jobs.

I've never made more than 20k a year. I hate living with my parents. I'd hate living with room mates while working a job I hate. It might be ok if I landed an interesting job.

Yeah, I'm a total brainlet, but I got lucky (my professor took pity on me) and put me as 3rd author on his publication. I got a bunch of pubs from my research job and I just didn't tell the biotech company what my GPA was (they never asked). I eventually learned R and Python and a lot of biology/biotech. Now I'm 25 and pretty competent at what I do.

I barely passed calc, python, and algorithms. I even failed software engineering and data base systems. But fuck it, lol got a super chill job where I only work 35 hours a week (from home if I wanted) and have free access to a gym, snack bar, and luxury coffee machines.

>if it's a good job, how did you land it
Depends on the person I'd say. It's a super easy job, really low stress, and decent pay for what you do. I personally don't like it, but if you're content going to the same place every day and doing the same thing all day long, it's not a bad place to work. I found out about it through a family friend who worked there. Started through a job agency making $9.50 an hour, got hired by the company in 2013 and slowly worked my way up. I'd say the biggest negative is management. Right now they're screwing me over while I'm out of work. I'm laid off right now and I found out about it from a co-worker. I called the director of HR to figure out what's going on, but management from the plant I work at are lying to my face, and changing records in the computer system and introducing new training programs to cover themselves.

>how is your current life situation
I'm realizing how fucked I am, and how badly I've screwed myself. I've been working at this place since I was 18(25 now) and it's really sinking in now. I work maybe 6 months out of the year then collect unemployment for the other 6. When I am working, I'm typically unhappy because I work an embarrassing job and I'm surrounded by toxic people. I need to find an actual career so I can start saving money to buy a house so I can grow the fuck up. I'm thinking of going for my class 2B license and trying to find a job driving excavators, but my depression and crippling social phobia are preventing me from doing it. I just need to tell myself to man the fuck up and do it. I can't keep digging myself further into this hole.

If I was 30 this would be a shit job but the fact that I am only 20 and got into an industry with a lot of growth and self study opportunities is just amazing.

How I got it?
Did 1 year of TAFE which is college of some sorts for burgers. And just applied. It's easy it is chill and it's a fun environment. Also the second youngest is 28. But hopefully I move on in 2 years and start making a little more money.

Current life situation is simple. I am happy and am looking to moving out with my best friend. Hopefully that goes through and also I am hoping to turn 100 of crypto to a 1000 and I am going to continue playing with it.

Graduated and applied like crazy maybe (30-40 companies) with no internship or job experience but I had some side projects and really hard classes to help me out. Surprisingly one company reached out. Interview was grueling (3 soft skills interview, 1 tech interview with 3 problems, 1 coding interview) but somehow got lucky. Feels great that I got the job without any connections because sister always kept saying that getting a job was all about connections but why the hell would I do that when I barely talk to anyone or have any friends.
>how is your current life situation
It's pretty good. Realizing now how hard it is to do something on the side while working full time. Want to draw, make games, or learn moonrunes but most of the time I just wanna do nothing. Also wish I had a gf to watch anime with.
