Yes you do. At least in my country. There's always someone with at least SOME experience and they will take that guy over you. Only in a situation where someone needs a worker and literally nobody else is applying can you get the job. And that never happens in a country with more unemployed citizens than open jobs.

This being said the best way to get a job is just apply EVERYWHERE and maybe you'll hit up some place who were like "we were just thinking we needed someone but didn't announce we are looking for employees yet" and will like your enthusiasm. That's what happened to me and I broke the cycle.

Christ, how stupid must you be to be a wage slave in a broken free-shit economy? I used to resell shit on ebay in the mornings and play all day afterwards.

Got bored of that too, still have enough money to learn coding, currently 50% progress on my mobile game. Welcome to 2017.

Just get off your ass and look at all the money and time being thrown at you from every corner of this post-scarcity, post-modern belle époque.

>all these excuses for not having a job
>all these bitch niggas saying they're "too tired" after a full week of work

I work 12 hour shifts, roughly 50 to 60 hours a week on average. Part of my job involves hiring people (big surprise; for the entry level spots I never look into work experience or shit like that. It usually boils down to "show up for the interview, answer questions, get hired, so long as you're not an autistic fuck [bad luck with these types]"). The other part involves a lot of manual labor.

Yet I still have time to video games, as well as some other hobbies like my weekly tabletop game. I even played FFXIV regularly for a few months, despite my time constraints (rolling healer sped things along though).

This generation is just as bad as the Boomers. Yes, the Boomers got their shit handed to them on a silver platter, and continue to be leeches to society now that they're in retirement. But this generation is a group raised by fucking machines, lazy pieces of shit who never took a beating as a child and who developed made up mental illnesses because social anxiety (something everyone experiences) is now considered some sort of retard spectrum.

Get off your fucking asses. Make your ancestors -- those fucking dudes who went down into coal mines for 15 hours a day -- proud.

Work is the ultimate meme.
Can it really be called living to wake up, eat, go to work, sleep, repeat? It can barely be called life support.
Someday we will achieve full automation and a standard universal income. Never again will someone be forced to waste their life to 'live'. People will be able to pursue their interests and own personal goals. Be it arts, sports or research.

Hello OP, I find myself in the same boat like, all the time. When I'm at work I have either my 3DS or my Switch with me to play. In some of the places (my job moves around a lot so not at the office a whole bunch), I get people who get rangry that I'm playing a game instead of doing social media (like an adult) but I pretty much ignore them. This weekend I had 2 11hr shifts, tied to a trainee on each, and surrounded by foreign folk. They were pretty cool though, once I hooked them up with some file-sharing.

Also, rediscovered MH4U, forgot how awesome that game was.

I dropped out if hs in 9th grade and just went full neet for like almost 8 years, barely leaving the house. I played video games nonstop but I was always depressed. Now, I work and live with my gf. I treasure the short bursts of gaming I get to have.

And the three bedroom I live in now also takes forever. Did you do you baseboards Anon? Have you cleaned you cabinets recently? The dust will get in your cereal bowls! What about your fridge? Freezer? The frost buildup will give your meat freezer burn. What about your drains? Don't want to attract water bugs. Light fixtures? Light switches? Have you cleaned those little dirt spots on the trims and doors near door handles where you touch the doors to open and close them? Have you swept out the cracks in your tile floor where the dust pan missed stuff? Have you mopped? Mopping takes ten minutes alone even if you have very little floor since you have to fill and empty a bucket. Have you taken out the trash? You do have a trash can in every room right? Have you cleaned your keyboard and mouse lately? Your screens? Your controllers? Your chairs? Your shoe rack? Have you moved all your furniture around and vacuumed under it lately? Cleaned your windows? I don't even want to ask about your bathroom, all the surfaces in there that can get piss worked into them.

This shit takes more than one or two hours every week you heathen. I KNOW you're not actually clean.

The only way to get a job nowadays is already have 5+ years of experience under your belt or have someone you know that's already working where you're applying and have them vouch for you. It's a fucked up system that can't sustain itself forever.

It all depends on your job and your time management skills.

Also, if you can, get a job as close to your house as possible. Like half my free time is spend just commuting back and forth to my job.

The other two are disabled and I take care of them. The six bedroom..was an attempt at getting non disabled roommates who would help for cheap rent. They didn't.

And no, those are biweekly-monthly things. Bathroom is like fucking daily. Let me continue to rattle off cleaning chores.

Vacuuming, dusting, clean countertops/surfaces, dishes, laundry, making the bed, yardwork (takes the most time for sure), hunting a random bug that got in, shopping to buy the supplies for all this shit are all frequent events.

First, I was like a 300 lb kissless virgin. Til 22ish. I started shaving, eating less and walking a ton. I ended up losing 100 lbs in under a year but I still sat in most of the day playing vidya. It wasn't til I started working a shit job cleaning niggers apartments and doing groundskeeping for $8 an hour that I finally put it together. I would pretend to be a retarded "normie" and not an autistic faggot. It really worked. You kinda just have to put yourself out there and never worry about what others think.

So then back to my original statement: you either live in a closet or don't give a fuck. A two bedroom is a sizeable place to clean as well, I know because I had one when I lived alone. Office bedroom livingroom kitchen bathroom. Easily 4 hours a week or more to clean it. Increased when I got a cat. You bring shit in on your clothes and shoes and then spread it around. Use your fucking eyes. I guarantee you haven't cleaned well.

Lol what a tremendous faggot. I have great insurance, but had to have an emergency kidney surgery in another state while I was visiting somewhere.

No I couldn't because I'm not going to abandon a hot burner like a fucking retard. Maybe a slowcooker meal or something in the oven. More importantly 20 minutes times 6 is suddenly two hours. If you clean right like I do that's a lot more 10 and 20 minute here and there's, especially consider that things don't always need cleaned at the same time (and of course equipment storage procedures take time too, though that's better than losing time being unorganized).

Honestly as a NEET, most people who talk about being NEET are fucking miserable. I have an engineering degree but at 24 got hit with schizophrenia and I'm almost entirely unemployable. I work a little bit what I can at a gas station 4 hours a week and receive disability, but every day is fucking misery. I live on my own though so maybe that's why my experience is what it is. Living on your own as a NEET is nothing but wishing you ever had just a little bit more to be comfortable. It really doesn't help that disability in the US is just barely enough to let you starve on.

Only if you are a materialistic fuckhead. I got to work for 2 years at about 60k a year and I never had want or desire for anything. I felt comfortable and my "wants" were only a few extra hundred a month. I don't understand the desire for "Well it does the same thing as what my other thing does but looks nicer and costs 20 times as much." I even went out of town a few times a year and really enjoyed myself. Now it's more about "Holy shit I really need food but in order to get that I need to borrow 30 dollars for someone" so you do, but then by the time you get your next check and pay them back suddenly you need 15 dollars for gas and it just infinitely loops itself.

The down payment on your mortgage is less or equal to rent.

I can pay 700 a month in rent or I can pay the same amount towards my mortgage. The latter has some risk attached to it but far greater rewards.

As far as living goes for most people, you have two options. Rent or mortgage. Rent means your money goes absolutely nowhere, but you also don't have to pay for repairs on anything. Mortgage means you gain equity, but you also have the risks of having to make major home repairs, or the market fucking your whole life up. As far as the whole "in debt until you get old" thing, anyone who uses a 30 year mortgage is just dumb. I'm 5 years through a 10 year mortgage. Paid 30% up front for a down payment, and I always pay at least 100$ more a month because it goes directly to the principal. Yeah, being piss poor all the time kinda sucks right now, but in less than 5 years, I'll have a home that appraised for $160k (which is upper middle class in the shit state of Alabama) completely payed off.

I disagree. I absolutely love my job, and while it may be physically tough quite often (I'm an electrician), I can't get enough of it.

For me it was Industrial Technology with a focus on manufacturing and machining processes. I chose it because there are lot of factories and small machine shops in town i can work at.

If you're putting in at least half the effort you say you are then you'll probably have the same experience as me once you get a job

Not him, but no, they're not. I've tried it several times, and it never worked. I think what bothers me the most about it is how fucking fake it is. I'm supposed to talk about the deepest, darkest things that torment me constantly to someone that I don't even really know and probably doesn't really care. I'm supposed to do thaton a strict schedule. I need to be ready to discuss things at the same time each week, for exactly one hour, and then I need to be able to just shut it off at the end of the hour so I can survive until next week. It's so fucking artificial. Human emotions don't work that way. It's only useful for people who have some minor things that they want to work on but that don't majorly fuck up their lives.

It's not really a secret that short men are discriminated against, but then again you could be rejected for any number of reason.

Not the guy you're talking to by the way, but I've always felt like being introverted was a much bigger demerit than my height when it comes to job seeking. Admittedly, that's just based on the feeling I get from them as it's not like they'd actually say it to my face.

Write a kickass cover letter and make your resume stand out with some color and good layout but not be unprofessional.

That's just a cop out. Not him but I've had the exact same expereince after having gone to at least +7 different therapists both public and private practices and after being out thousands of dollars later none of them helped or even alleviated any of my psychological issues. I'm sure cognitive therapy works for some people with very specific serious issues, ie rape victims, PTSD but to act like therapy works for everyone is just foolish because it clearly fucking doesn't.

As someone who's been out of work for about a year, the novelty wears off.

It's really just the norm at this point.
The anons you're replying to think "entry level" they really mean "dead end menial mcjob for slavewages", not actual entry level positions that allow for advancement in a real career. Nobody is going to give a flying fuck about your 2 years working the register or the grill at mcdonalds even if you want to stay in the restaurant business.
The truth is unless you have an incredible portfolio and you're in a field that allows you to freelance, networking and having connections clearly matters just as much if not more for getting work worth a shit than any amount of qualifications up to post grad.

Try not working a shitty job. If you like your job you'll find time and a way to enjoy yourself after.

Not to mention that it's basically useless if the reason you're fucked up is because of circumstances you can't change, like if you're crippled or something. All they can do then is try to make you feel okay with your shitty lot in life, and some people just can't or won't do that. Not everyone is cut out to be a "positive attitude no matter what" type.

Underwater Welding/Commercial Diving. Pretty dangerous work and no one wants to do it so people are always looking for workers. Pays quite a bit as well for the little time you spend in post-secondary education/training and you get to retire early. Sometimes days can be long tho and there are moments where you have to live on a boat for 6+ months.

No-one gives a fuck man, what is this cuck shit. Work, or clever business is there to make money to avoid doing menial shit and enjoying your hobbies.
You sound like you have serious OCD,get a gf or wife, there your cleaning duties are so much smaller.
Although now you have to spend time with them, and its not always fun, so pick your poison.

You sound like a youngling. I don't know what part of NY you live in but you should work at a huge grocery store (I wouldn't recommend working up front though). When I got a job stocking at 17 it was fun as hell. A bunch of young people and hot girls and easy cash. It's after a couple years where the depression and disgust kicks in.

Going back to school in September, lads

How shitty would it be to apply and get a job right now that isn't specified as a temporary/summer job, at a place like Save Mart, and then leave after 3 months? I imagine it's not too bad due to turnover rates, but my friend says it's risky, for some reason.

Throughout undergrad and graduate school, I worked in a liquor store. Did it for 7 years. The disgust at working retail was offset by my disgust of all the alcoholics I saw come into the store all the goddamn time.

Trick to retail is to find a job where you feel superior to the customers and you are good enough at your job so that management leaves you alone.

I have two jobs and still have time for vidya.

I'm only free on afternoons on Tuesday and Friday, on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday I don't play anything when I get home.
Weekend is for vidya.

I simply neglect my responsibilities and only clean very sparsely, to maximize my gaming time.
I wish I still lived with my parents, that way I could play games all day long while mom cooked and cleaned, now I have to do that myself and it fucking sucks.

These kind of jobs don't care how old you are. They take anyone, even convicted felons. You just have to apply when they have openings. There are also agencies where you can send your reaume and they gind work for you. One of my friends did that and landed a full time job at 14 an hour at a factory in a few days.

I live in germany and we have something that's called "agency for work". Essentially the place where you have to go to get your unemployment money and stuff. When I was like 21 I got put into a program that teaches you how to write a CV and how to deal with interviews. It took like 6 months but then I got an apprenticeship and a job as a software developer. Currently making roughly 32k euro a year.

What I'm trying to say is, there has to be some sort of help that you can get in your country.

Well, it's not like they have a choice.

Do you think you might be willing to use the resources you have for some kind of social advocacy to push for a way to make things easier on people? Maybe get into politics in some way? It would certainly be a worthy cause, and it sounds like you have the time and resources for it.

Responding in tone doesn't make for a good argument. And nothing in that post said anything of the sort. In fact he was bringing up a good point, giving birth to children often is both selfish and irresponsible and not only because of unstable financial state and inability to provide. Parents with hereditary conditions often pass them on to their offspring which results in a life of misery and abuse for the child, which makes for more 4chan posters.

Not him, but yeah, I think that's a big part of it. When the rest of your life wears you down and depresses the fuck out of you, you start to simply lose interest or motivation to do things you actually used to like.

They take anyone. It's actually not that bad if you can handle it mentally. If you've been full time for several years the pay is decent enough and great benefits and 401k.
