I always feel tired on my way back home, sometimes doze off on the train but usually feel awake as soon as I come home and start doing something
days off, you retard.
Days off and time management.
It's not as hard as you think.
I'm not tired if I'm playing a game, I only feel tired after work if I sit down and watch a stream or anime.
And I only work 3 12 hour shifts and have 4 days off a work so I have plenty of days off play games.
I don't. Playing vidya after work gives me eye strain and makes it harder to sleep. I only play on my days off, after I've done all the household chores so about 2-3 hours per week
I dont. My vidya consumption has gone down drastically and I find less joy in it then I used to.
Where do his tattoos go?
I hate my job, I wish I could move to Colorado and sell weed in my friend's dispensary.
I usually play just on my days off which is Saturday and Sunday.
Also saving up for a down payment on a house so I don't buy as many games anymore.
Being a poor wage cuck sucks.
I just don't play anything after work usually. It kind of sucks but it's just a part of growing up I guess, less time to do fun shit. Doesn't make me feel depressed or anything, just kind of "well what can you do". I know I would probably want to kill myself if I was just a leech on society since that's the kind of person I am, not a jab at you NEETs.
came here to post this.
My job's super easy
I'm at work right now and I already have pretty much everything done for the day 3 hours into my shift. Now I'm just gonna sit around and shitpost for 5 hours than go home and play vidya.
Where do you think the Monster Energy meme came from? Corporate?
I use my switch and 3DS on my breaks and when I get home
is there a version with sound?
Develop better sleeping habits. I'm always in bed before midnight and up by six. Your diet also affects your energy levels. What's your caffeine consumption like? I try to avoid drinking it in the morning. Depending on how much time you have between getting home and when you want to sleep, you might consider drinking some coffee when you get home to be more productive with your evenings.
I work retail stocking. It keeps me feeling physically fit so that when I play vidya I can relax.
eat better, sleep better, maybe cut back on caffeine. i can play just fine. what else are you doing that eats your time? watching tv?
How about instead of spending your precious free time playing video games you spend that time getting educated so you don't have to be a "wagecuck" anymore.
>after work i'm always exhausted
I work a 10 hour shit and have plenty of time and energy for vidya. Get fucked faggot
I don't like coffee or chocolate, tea is the only thing with caffeine I consume
most poor people can't even afford half of that and definitely don't live in such nice places
go look at what a countryside village full of retired farmers and factory workers looks like, that is poor
Just wait until a day I'm not exhausted when I come home.
>exhausted
Really? I’m usually not, and I work a heavily manual labor job.
just imagine being a wagecuck
imagine finishing one game per year
imagine having to choose between hobbies
imagine having to wake up a specific hour and do what you are told for the next eight hours every day
When I work second shift, I get off work at 11, go home and browse Yea Forums till 1am, go to bed, wake up at 11, play vidya till 1 or 2 and then get ready and go to work at either 3 or 4.
Lately though they've been scheduling me first shifts, so when I get home at like 2 or 3, I'm exhausted and I end up crashing and then wake up at 9 or 10 and I can't go back to sleep even though I have another day shift and I have to be up at 5am. It gives me no time for vidya at all. I think all the people who want typical Mon-Fri 8-5s are insane and I will never understand them.
Imagine being a virgin that lives with his parents and shitposts on Yea Forums.
>just imagine being a wagecuck
Love my job
>imagine finishing one game per year
Lol no I have plenty of time for gaymin
>imagine having to choose between hobbies
No?
>imagine having to wake up a specific hour and do what you are told for the next eight hours every day
10 hours actually. I make so much money I can do whatever I want lol
The main thing stopping me from playing, whether I have work, grad school, or neither on a given day, is just not knowing what to play exactly. It doesn't help that I've got a backlog I want to burn through this Summer but also a couple games I'm like >80% done with that I want to finish, plus fighting games I may want to pop in from time to time.
I've also had three 7:30 AM shifts in a row this week with 8:30 tomorrow so I'm not the most energized in the afternoon.
That's great. A cup or two when you get home might help you with the exhaustion, and it likely won't make you too jittery to sleep.
...
I judge by where I live which is California.
Otherwise you could keep going down the ladder until poor only means you have to live in Africa while eating literal garbage and sleeping on the dirt while waiting for animals to pick you apart as you starve to death.
I work 3 days a week, M, W, F. Wake up at 6:15am on workdays, home by 7:50, then I stay up to 1-2am and wake up the next day at 9.
Enjoy living in your parents house, sitting behind your computer screen coping with depression from loneliness and feelings of self-worth. Granted you have it better than 8 hour 5 day a week wagecucks, but you're really in no position to talk NEETcuck.
What is this "days off" you foreign yanks speak of? I work in your embassy called McDonalds and no one there seems to know what this is. Are days off the days you are not contracted on in your Zero Hour Contract?
LAY UR HEEEEEEEEEEEEAD ON MY PILLOOOOOW
Days you don't go into work.
I just finished the last week of my holidays and by the end of it I didn’t know what to do with myself. I don’t know how you NEETs do it 365 days a year
I actually play games after work specifically so I dont fall asleep on the couch or my bed.
I dont work weekends.
>tfw off work all next week
>Get to watch E3, jerk off, and get high.
It's gonna be grrrrrreat
I mean, even if that's poor money-wise you still have a really high quality of life. Minimum wage does not get you such high quality of life even in most first world countries.
>how do you keep playing vidya?
I have a job that fits my schedule better than others.
>wake at 3am, do what I want for two hours, leave by 5:30
>work till 1:30 or until I get my shit done. extra hours still means more money, so it's a give-take relationship
>get paid $12 an hour, and a mandatory 30 minute break every couple hours. Break is paid work time.
>go home, play vidya or do whatever else the fuck I want until 8-10, in which case i retire
>repeat process
People who do graves or swing shifts have the worst hours imaginable.
What kind of jobs are 12 hours 3 days a week?
Boss needs help! Don't be lazy!
This desu. If you're a minimum wage cuck, you probably need to fight to get as many hours as you can. My experience with fast food was that they didn't give nearly enough hours to anyone. Part of it is that machines have replaces a lot of their labor needs, and part of it is that they keep more people on board than they need so that anyone who quits can be easily replaced.
If you're stuck at McDonalds or retail, and have no marketable skills with which to escape, my advice to you is to either join the army or develop SOME KIND OF marketable skill that you can use to escape.
maybe you wouldn't always be so exhausted if you didn't spend so much time altering your wojaks by one pixel so you can bypass my filters, faggot
>poor
Dude, fuck off.
I hate living in this shitty rural Texas town. The job market here is fucking terrible.
some warehouse/factory jobs are 3x12 and 4x12
I remember Black Buster Critic was very proud about how he held 3 fucking jobs to pay for his video games. How do you even find time to play?
>always on busy shifts
>slacker co-workers
>always do majority of cleanup
>sit down in shower
>come out but still smell like work
>sleep, wake up and get ready for work
>12 hour work days
fuck that shit
idk desu. The only one I knew of was nursing so I did that, don't regret it at all. I did 5 8 hour shifts a week when I was training and hated my life, but working 3 12s I'm happier than I was when I was a temporary NEET during school breaks.
But other than nursing idk what else there is. And by the way being an OR nurse which is what I do is based. The pay is great and I literally spend 30-50% of my day sitting down on my phone reading manga, playing games, and browsing 4channel while the doctors operate.
I work remote. I can do everything wasted as fuck if I wanted.
I don't make minimum wage.
Minimum wage is too little to live on your own here.
And I mean that as a fact.
Even the cheaper small studio apartments in the worst part of town will run you around 1000 USD a month. And you can only rent there if your wage is 2-3 times rent. A full time 40 hour minimum wage job in California will only net you less than 2k a month.
...And I live in a cheaper part of California.
I am still confused. You have days where you are not forced to work because one job doesn't provide enough income to live on?
Educated people don't have to work?
Are you saying I am not as poor as you?
If you had a full time job That wasn't fast food you would probably think I was poor.
Well compared to when I was training and working 8 hour shifts, my work shift is 4 hours longer, but my free time after work is the same, on top of having my entire next day or 2 off. I'll gladly stay at work 4 hours later if I can go in 2 less days and have more freedom and freetime.
Fucking enjoy it, dude. I've given up all that by moving to a country with virtually zero drugs to live with my wife. She's fucking awesome, and my mental health has vastly improved, but every now and then I get that itch to down molly, addie, cocaine, fucking anything, and sitting behind my computer and jerking off/playing games for 12 hours straight. I miss it, but if I had stayed in America to fulfill that goal, I would have been perpetually miserable outside those days.
Did Sai 2 get cracked yet?
Yes I only work 3 days a week, 36 hours, because my job provides me with more than enough income to live on.
What jobs are available for a useless dropout NEET that isn’t retail or fast food?
I don't
I started working out every day too
I only have enough energy to play vidya for an hour a day now
Holy fuck what a bunch of fucking casuals in this thread.
>work for 8 hours +1 hour lunch.
>two way commute is about 45 minutes total
>get home
>play video games for 5-6 hours
>weekends are 15-16 hours
And some of you sad fucks only play for 3 hours a week? Kill yourselves out of Yea Forums no fucking wonder why this place has been Yea Forums 2.0 for the longest time.
Get out of fucking california. I pay 450 for 1br1ba apartment and have lots of extra income after other bills/insurance
Security guard, call center, janitor
What I hate most are the jobs where not only did I have to work overtime but I had to clock out and take multiple lunches that was not under payed time.
I like my current job because I work 8 hours and my lunch is covered under that. So I am not staying at work for 9 hours and getting payed for 8.
None, go back to school.
The fuck?
How the fuck you are exhausted for vidya? You just sit there!
I'm not saying I'm poor. I'm saying you don't know what poor is. And as a fucking college student? Literally fuck off.
Lunch should be included in the 8 hours. That's how it used to work. It was called a paid lunch and people actually worked 9 to 5, not 8:30 to 5:30.
you need to have a brain to get strained mentally
Work 7 to 6 every day. I usually get an hour or two or three in. Depends on if I have anything around the house to do or how tired I am. Usually never make it past 10pm. The weekends is where I do most of it. My sleep schedule is the same though so from 6am on I can play as much as I want. Again can't make it past 10pm though.
This is me, but my time home playing is curtailed by the fiancee and other social responsibilities. I imagine having kids will virtually eliminate my play time.
Do not respond to faggots who claim they are poor yet show expensive shit. Don't give these attention whores (You)s
If you commute long hours then it's impossible except on weekends. You could play 1 or 2 hours of vidya and sleep less but that's not really worth it. If you use public transit you could get a Vita or Switch to play.
Do you not clean your place? Cook for yourself? Take care of other shit that pops up?
But it’s so expensive.
>And you can only rent there if your wage is 2-3 times rent
is this a law in commiefornia or what?
Phil?
Then if you don't make minimum wage you're definitely not poor, even by californian standards. "Poor" is by any and all means less than minimum wage, not enough to live comfortably, or usually both at the same time.
And I feel you on that renting issue, here you or your guarantor need to earn thrice the rent.
It can be the requirement of the owner. People recommend that anyways
I'm currently in one of those bullshit 9 hour deals. Don't really see a way out, though. I'm a foreigner here, and it's difficult for us to get full time work as most companies like to cut a few hours during the week to make you part time and avoid giving you health insurance/pension payments.
Look for temporary positions/temp agencies. Most of the time the jobs are in an office environment and they only need someone who can follow directions without mistakes once they get a hang of why they hired you in the first place.
Yeah I wish it were. I just spend that hour at the computer doing assorted bullshit, including Yea Forums.
Good point. I should have mentioned my living situation is different and it allows me to not have to do these things. However I made sure nothing pops up and if they do, I obviously take care of it. It never involves other people though because fuck them (aka no friends).
If you're a NEETcuck you're living with your parents. It's not expensive to commute to college. My student loan debts are 300 a months, that's not even 8% of my post-tax income. Student loans are only expensive if you go to an expensive school or pick a shit major.
The jobs pay less out of state.
California is the best place for a Computer Science major.
Only have a little bit more of college left.
Sure It would be nice to move more east and buy a house for 150k that would of been over 500k in California, but I also don't want to live in Tornado alley...
Now that I am working on a fixed schedule with the weekends off, it's no problem.
But working retail with variable hours, with the chance for being called in at any time really fucked up my energy and mental health.
What would America be like?
Yup.
>amazon warehouse worker
>literally killing myself for 15 dollars an hour
There's stuff to worry about everywhere user. California has earthquakes and fires. The Midwest has tornados. The south has hurricanes. The northeast has people from the northeast.
Link me senpai
>poor
Jesus...
Why is anyone giving attention to that spoiled Cali fuck? Do you expect me to believe he is poor with all the furniture and items he's showing off? Fuck off.
it's a thing all over the world. No landlord is going to rent you his property unless he knows you can afford it. And be thankful as an American that you don't have various employment contracts, most landlords here want you to have a undetermined duration contract, meaning you legit can't get fired unless the company tanks or you screw up big time.
>being too exhausted to do an activity meant for low energy
You’re just a depressed faggot is all.
I go to work, go workout afterwards, and still can play games.
I work a desk job and go to the gym regularly so i am never tired after work
these guys make almost as much as skilled labor in california
12/hour starting
if you worked there before then you probably make somewhere around 15-16/hr
pretty crazy
This is what I make every two weeks.
It might fluctuate if I work overtime.
This is the base to survive here on your own.
I make less than the median income so I belong to the lower class bracket.
Bait
Anons I can't even find a min. wage job. I'm working on getting my driver's license so I can access more job opportunities but from what I've seen there's not much more job offers. I tried going to college but legit couldn't understand the classes.
Cope
Most places ask for the person to make many times rent in order to prove you can afford the place.
Just try living in Silicon Valley where renting a small apartment is over 3000 USD a month.
So you need to make 2-3 times rent to live there.
>neet
>still don't have enough time to do everything I want to do
I don't know how you wagies do it.
>northeast has people from the northeast
Damn i make 2900 every 2 weeks after taxes
A smiling face in every place (:
If I'm feeling tired, I take a nap after work and force myself to wake back up. other than that, days off you idiot
Work forces us to be more time efficient. You stop adding JRPGs to your collection when you realize what a horrendous time sink they are.
I’m a virgin working full time and honestly I wonder if I shouldn’t just kill myself and get it over with.
>gloomhaven
My nigga
I do this. Sometimes I'll just say fuck it and REALLY feel the urge to play something but most of the time, I come home, get too tired to play vidya, and then just browse the internet all day and/or listen to music. Ir's especially bad right now too because I've been meaning to get back into Smash, start going out to tournaments again, etc., but I just can't be arsed to sit down and play. I probably will at some point tonight though. Doesn't help that I'm in school so a decent amount of my time goes into studying or doing school work even though I'm only taking 2 online courses right now.
kek if I earned that here I'd be upper middle class and would make more than many multiple-earners households
Adderall fool.
>he thinks 3k a month after taxes is a lot
I wish I had a beautiful vista to see when I ride the bus
Can confirm.
Baltimore niggas are the craziest motherfuckers in the country.
Last Earthquake anyone really felt in California was the San Fran one in 1989.
I never experienced and Earthquake nor has anyone I have known in California.
Compare that to the destruction of tornadoes and how many families had there property destroyed from tornadoes.
All you have to care about in California is not living next to a huge forest which is pretty easy to do. Just stay away from the most northern areas of California which doesn't really have any jobs there to begin with.
Actually the second time I've been Rickrolled this week
Is it making a comeback?
Unironically I would rather work 13 hours 3 days a week then 5 days 8 hours. Why does not job work that way?
it legit is, it's way more than the median income
That’s another thing. Even if I could take the student loan, my parents won’t want me in the house for 4 more years. They’re so close to kicking me out already.
I didnt say it was. Learn to read and learn to do math. 3k every 2 weeks is more than 6k a month
I'm hardly ever tired after working for my fast food chicken job. I actually love it and have made a lot of friends. I was NEET for over a year and this really brought my life back together.
Lets be honest most people don't have time to do anytgin.
>living with parents
>wagecucked hard for the past 5 years before going full neet, saving everything up, and have all the spending money i need
tfw /made it/ bros
you don't
youtube.com
>how do you keep playing vidya
I don't.
Used to after work for a couple hours and most of the day on my 1 days off, but since my GF broke up with me I haven't any motivation to do anything.
>California is the best place to be a computer science major
Except the cost of living makes it not better a life than anywhere else. Fuck California.
Because you need to go work for a 24 hour a day group like security, oil fields, or police.
Because nobody is going to be fully productive over 13 hours
my issue is with lunch break. It's just a waste of time, I'd rather leave work an hour earlier rather than waste an hour eating a sandwich anyway since you can't go to a restaurant under an hour
Same here except I can't get high because of my stupid drug testing job
I wish I could make 40 USD an hour...
But I am just a poor wage cuck.
>he does not understand cost of living variances
3k every two pay periods can afford you 10 acres and a 2 story house where I live
Because most jobs are based are based around other people's time schedules. It's an Ouroboros of time consumption.
Because Americans are cucks.
I used to work 40 hours a week over 5 days at my last job. Quit because I hated my hours. I currently make less at my new job although my schedule is way more agreeable. In some ways, I'm happy, but I do miss my slightly better paycheck, especially since I'm a poorfag who's saving up for a car.
Nobody is productive for 8 hours of work.
>work as a software dev
>brain turns off after 6 hours of work and can only do simple shit on autopilot, head starts physically hurting if I work for too long
5-8 suits me quite well.Thank God we almost don't have crunches.
I work 4 10s and love it. If I could go to 3 13s I would in a heartbeat
My job used to have 4 10 hour days before I got hired
I fucking wish they'd bring it back
I should just become a firefighter
Should I join the military?
Unironically learn to code. Easy money
Anyone else feel like they're stuck in a dead end job?
Escapism through gaming and other means become less effective each day
Sometimes I wish I could reset
Why would you want to live with your parents?
In my late teens my parents set strict rules and if I wasn't going to college full time then I had to pay rent which was most of my paycheck.
And if was I going to school full time then I had to pay for all of my college fees.
It feels horrible having to rely on someone else for your livelihood so I got out as quick as I could and I could never go back to living with someone else.
most people dont feel that way
Ironically I play more now then I did when I was a Neet, now I actually look forward to playing vidya instead of feeling like I'm wasting my life.
Still wish I hade Notch money and could retire, oh well
Where do you work where you don't have crunches? I want to go into software development in the video game industry and I dread the crunches.
That is what I am in college for.
Have a little bit left before getting my computer science degree.
I work late.
>off by 1ish
>get home play vidya till 3-4ish
>sleep till noon
>daytime stuff and vidya until 4:30
>get to work early since I like my coworkers, chill till 5:30 then clock in
>regularly get days off since I mostly work weekends
>thinking the market would need me after pajeets and chings do work with way lower pay
i'm not even smart so i don't think i can learn coding
Why the fuck is your family like this? Is this the case with US families in general?
My family would let me stay or pay for my tuition because they know shit is fucked and I don't have enough money to pay for it. I would kill myself if my family was ever like this.
Are there even wagecucks who post here? It seems that anons are either neets, children, or educated degree-holders like myself
>britfag
>see thread involving wages
>multiple $50k+ salaries posted
>barely making £15k full time
god fucking DAMNIT
In college you need to have taken at least Calculus II for a computer science degree but you really don't need more than basic algebra and some geometry to get into programming languages.
Although the higher math classes will help you be a better coder for some issues.
I play fighting games, they energize you while playing. After that there is more than enough energy for other things.
But the pound is worth more
But whose going to pay for that free healthcare
But where does the money for disability come from
But whose going to pay for Muhammad's house
Jesus fucking christ
I make 900 after taxes every two weeks. Live in rural Oregon and own a house too, living in California must be fucking terrible
Because they thought it was a lesson to show how hard it is to live on your own when you have to pay for your own shit.
So instead of living with them I moved out and went to school part time and slowly payed it off while renting out rooms on craigslist from potential drug crazy people.
I only play on friday and saturday. For some reason if I try to play on a day before work, even if I'm not tired, I feel like I should instead be doing something to prepare for work or at least something that would boost my resume.
mate what the fuck are you doing, cleaning toilets? I'm working a temp admin job with basically no requirements other than being able to read and use a computer and I make more than that.
Do nursing. My mom does 3 days 12 hrs. Some nurses do like I think 10 hrs 7 days and then have 7 days off.
What's the go to degree for someone who just wants to be an IT monkey?
Not him but this is what I'm in school for. I'm currently just earning my Associate's for now but fuck me, I'm trash at math so I'm genuinely afraid that I'll never learn how to code and it's been at the back of my mind that I should maybe just major in something else instead.
No
It's hard af
Most programmers arent smart lol
......a literal IT degree?
I really need to move out there. Sounds kush.
where do you live? I've heard some parts of CA aren't that expensive.
I thought Oregon was expensive when looking uo houses there.
Which area of Oregon do you live near?
Is it far North?
I was at that point, you need to double down on escapism and unironically keep your fantasy of resetting, having some fantasy life helps going through some tough days imo
I take a shower after work, that helps.
because i dont have retarded boomer parents and they generally just leave me alone
>judge by where I live
Bitch I live in california in the desert and live in a trailer. I'm poor, you are middle class, 4k a month is a fuck ton.
I use to live in ky and I could get a 2 bed apartment out there for 400 a month. Here in cali I can barely get a studio apt for 900
so you are baiting. you ass.
Are we all moving to user's house?
How much is rent, Oregon user?
A local factory job does this
Ex-wagie here. I usually took a shower, put on something comfortable, and sat down on my ass to play vidya. It's not that complex.
Currently trying to get a job now but my work experience is dogshit so I'm probably fucked.
>Professional drawing tablet
>gym gear
>arcade machines
I'm falling for bait, aren't I?
It is, there's enough stores and stuff for me a town over (where I also work). Lots of Californians are beginning to move here for retirement so housing prices will probably go up soon.
I think it can be, like near the California border in a place called Brookings houses were very expensive. I live near the coast, my mortgage is $629 a months. To be fair, I get a special poorfag USDA loan because the town I live in is considered rural to the state.
Used to feel that way after working construction. but I quit that job. Now I'm on a 9 week break from my current job and get all of the time in the world. Don't even know what to do with myself and wish I was working, actually.
>Here in cali I can barely get a studio apt for 900
Same here in UT as well. I'm honestly looking to buy a condo instead because it's cheaper.
For the degree you need the math courses completed but to program you don't.
You can get by programming with very basic math.
Hell my Uncle worked as a head computer science engineer and is now working at Facebook and doesn't even have a degree.
But he got into computers in the 1980s and was lucky enough to land a job in a tech company in the late 1980s because of a friend's dad who worked there.
I wish shit would just land on my lap like that.
I love this meme. You realize that it doesn't matter how educated you are, you're still a wageslave to someone, right? I don't get this idea that you suddenly work in paradise after you get a Bachelor's Degree or something.
Wrong
Nope.
Honestly don't know what I'd charge for rent if I really wanted to. Am living with an user already, however
Anybody here a broadband technician? I get an interview tomorrow, I have no idea what to expect other than it's the best job/opportunity I may ever have right now.
warehouse jobs are usually like this.
That seems to be the case anywhere. I wouldn't mind moving out to bumfucksville (so long as I have an internet connection, but my fiancee has a social circle and plenty of city things she likes doing that I wouldn't want her to sacrifice.
Nursing is a pretty good gig for that schedule, better than most
Nice, user. I live in rural Florida, which is probably not as comfy but the cost of living is quite low. Making about the same as you and it does me just fine.
I'm getting tired of working Walgreens, do Bars have better health coverage? Is the pay different because of tips?
I am a team lead and deal with fucktards all day and i am also not that smart and always stoned at work
I can't. When I started working, my desire to play games or program completely stopped.
I miss it so much.
nice bait
Well yah got me there.
My parents were born in the 1950s.
They now call me and gloat about being retired and what they are going to do with all their free time.
And by looking at how long my grandparents and great grandparents lived they will be chilling for another 30 years or so.
>tattoos
Have a jog, sleep better
>tfw dude who has been working at my job for 20 years just now got his first promotion to staff lead
Weekends.
>gayming industry
>doesn't want crunches
don't bother dude. game studios are the most brutal types of tech companies. if you want a low stress job do boring enterprise/web shit for a small, stable company, or a large non-tech company. startups will work you to the bone. large tech companies are a tossup, could be okay, but I've also heard a lot of bad stories.
You seem like the type who buys a lot of stuff and then never uses any of it.
Easily, by not working for a shiity company that doesnt let you play vidya while at work
what are some jobs where you work completely alone

Ah yes, that myth. You do realize that's so they can have better hold of you and don't get extra activities or another job that could interfere with your employment, right?
You might be correct.
Bought my HTC Vive at release for 892USD after tax and shipping.
Haven't used it for 3 months.
Haven't touched my PS4 PRO since last year.
I rarely play on my PC anymore aside from some Rocket League.
I spent almost 200 dollars on Gloom Haven but at least with that I have a game night with friends so I find it well worth the cost.
I usually spend my free time reading instead of playing with my tech stuff.

Have you tried having sex? It's not that hard
With a degree youre able to provide a lot more for yourself and settle down a hell of a lot sooner than if you spend your whole life slaving for 20k a year.
Be one of them call center people. At least you won't have to look at anyone as you speak to them.

If I ever turned into a serial killer, I'm going after you first. You have zero idea what poor means
Lol yeah, studios are all about crunch, they’re the fucking crunchiest of all tech jobs. I don’t even work in the field but have many friends who do, including one who worked at Bethesda. That job legitmitately took years off his life.
I don't. haha.
You are literally above 95% of the population economically. You aren't poor. Suck it up, faggot.
Working early morning. Usually from 3-11. Come home, sleep a couple hours then play vidya til 8 ish and fall asleep and repeat. It ain't hard
Do what I do and kill your liver by drinking half a bottle of hard liquor every night after work.
When I lived in socal, I experienced a few small quakes.
One of them was during the morning, and it woke up my cousin by loosening a wall clock such that it fell on her face.
Quakes are cool.

Work from 8 to... 2pm or so. Some weekends. 200k. Vidya every night 6 to 8pm or so.
Also, you have to give your employees benefits if they work more than 40 hours per week. Usually a random dude at McDonald's will get assigned 4-5 random days to work at the beginning of the week and work just under the 40 hour cutoff.
I work from home

Do I have to separate first world poor with third world poor.
Do I have to be living in a hut and eating garbage to be considered poor?
Although if you do decide to come over and kill me please remember to turn off the lights.
the shittiest part is the pay is low to slightly-above-average at best when compared against other tech jobs. hardly justifies the workload.
I'm pretty indifferent about where I work at. I just want to work at a "braindead" job or whatever. That was my main goal leaving school. It seems like school urges you to have some kind of goal in mind and shuns a typical job. Like, would it not be cool enough to just end up being corporate in a Theater or Mcdonald's job? Yeah, it's shitty now, but nobody has thought the bigger things.
Why is that?
Yeah, but that's if you're interested in the career itself. If I go in just to find a way to "settle down" sooner, I might as well just work. You're still going to slave yourself in any job, it's no different.
I hear that aspiring Doctors have worst, 14 years in school or some shit? and Lawyers? Good luck in this era. There's really nothing that gets to me.

I just quit a fine dining sous chef job that was sucking the life out of me. I am starting a thud job as a dough maker for a local pizza shop on monday while i look for a new job.

No, fuck off >:(
Americans literally die when it's 30 degrees or higher because they forget to drink unless someone reminds them.
It's why you constantly hear Americans telling other Americans to "stay hydrated".
I play on my gaymen laptop while at work because nothing ever happens in a hotel during the night, then I have some extra 2 or 3 hours to play at home. Nowadays the time I use to play vidya feels more valued and it feels more fulfilling to sit down and play compared to when I was a neet

If you nuked California you would lose out on most tech and agriculture.

haha, good luck even getting translating gig without degrees and being part of an agency. And all French-English jobs are taken unless you want to work 80 hours a week to make a living. Interprets have it better but you need solid social skills for it.
Janitorial jobs are pretty much entirely solo.
That's how it is at my place. When I started we had an additional manager and an HR guy. Now, a year later we've dropped like, 2 floor workers, the HR guy and the other manager.

You are always paying for sex. You're either feeding the hole, listening to the hole, doing favors for the hole, or buying things for the hole. Rise above it all and just cut out the middleman:
Pay to have sex.
You're fucked depending on your goals. If you want the boomer life for example that might be out of the question now.
You can live an ascetic life and find fulfilment. I suggest hitting the gym and reading a Bible.

No. It should be illegal for businesses to contact you on your day off unless it's an emergency
Paying for sex is an admission of defeat when you can't get it any other way. It's only valid when you already know you can easily get laid via traditional methods but opt for convenience of paid sex.

I've been so tired lately. My class is killing me and I took 3 stealth days off of work this week to try to catch up. I'm exhausted and to top it off now I'm worried that I'm going to get fired since my boss wants to come to client meetings with me next week.

Im living with parents for free and just trying to save as much as i can right now, they could kick me out tomorrow (lmao they have threatened when i pissed them off on a couple seldom occasions but ultimately they're gone a lot and i keep the house from burning and the dogs from shitting all over their furniture so they dont) and id be fine though, that's the beauty of having money
No, fuck 'em. Unless being on call is part of your job you're not forced to cover if someone no shows.
I earn 25k a month for 4 random months in the year working 12 hour days 7 days a week so that I can have 8 months off and enjoy life.

I posted this in a recent thread but I'm convinced that what makes some alcoholics live longer than other is a diet. Look at Hollywood for example people like Mick Jagger he's still alive and he's a major drug e. Most of Hollywood have uses alcohol and other drugs however you rarely see people with cirrhosis of the liver.
Meanwhile all the drunks I see my emergency departments get 90% of their daily calories from alcohol. They all seem to get liver failure within 10 years and pass.
I'm convinced extremely high-quality diet that all these Hollywood stars have custom-made for them that keeps them going. The liver is extremely resilient if well nourished.

Not gonna lie, it’s hard my man. i get your frustration.
40 hour week should fucking die but it's actually all getting worse, increases in productivity mean you're expected to do MORE work in the same amount of time, or more, instead of scaling back the amount of work that people are expected to do. And for a regular salaried joe they don't work a 9-5, that's dead and gone, it's an 8 - 5 or 9 - 6 because lunch "breaks" aren't paid for but are mandatory.
Everything is a nightmare and it's all getting worse and worse and worse.
>took this advice a few years ago and havent regretted it since
>today I got a little gold pin that says I've worked here 3 years and they appreciate me

Sorry man I'm too comfy right now playing sniper elite V2 remastered on my projector. I'm not really trying to show off I just want people to know that you can still live a boomer lifestyle if you're a little bit lucky and are able to get a good education with the help of your family

Not at all. The business is the asshole. Although coming in is an opportunity to show your loyalty and might help with getting a raise/promotion later, the keyword is "might." If you have no future plans with that company, fuck 'em.

I work in a lab and there were LITERALLY two people in the lab on first shift including me trying to handle every sample sent up, everyone is just barely getting the fucking work done and that's exactly how they want it fuck this gay earth we are never actually done with anything it just rotates forever hire some new people you kikes.
Unless they've done a solid for you before (doubtful) I wouldn't worry about it. No point in being loyal when they will probably tell you to fuck yourself when you need a favor in return.
I know a guy like you at work, he's pretty miserable desu
hey, if that's being poor in USA I want to go there. Let me fight your wars.
I think genetics also play a role too.
While my uncle died at 66 from alcohol, my dad was also a heavy drinker and is still alive at 64.
He stopped drinking after he had trouble pissing one night.

You don't know how good you have it. NEETs usually end in suicide if you're not on the gibs.
I only see a few people complaining about not having enough time for videogames.
i have that exact desk
No shit anyone unattractive enough to develop views like this has mental scars beyond repair and gradually loses the ability to interact with people, I would know.
Maybe along the coast, but straight down (sans Orlando), it's rural as hell. Many places still have long gravel roads.
The hat can be rough, but I used to play football in that heat. I'm somewhat used to it. If it gets indoors, then I'm uncomfortable.
You know I'm right. Because Yea Forums is an irredeemable mess of a board filled with illiterates. All my posts are pearls before swine.
Being a NEET doesn't necessarily mean you don't have to worry about these, maybe they're on the dole.
>work at home
>motivation at a minimum, barely doing my work and stressing the whole day for it.
It definitely needs someone more disciplined and less easily distracted than me.
>haven't had a week off work in a year
I miss being NEET. Wagecucking sucks. Life sucks. Hopefully I can move to a small town in a few years, buy a small house and semi retire with a part time job.
Most are technical skills that involve hard work. You can also get tech jobs with computer skills. You can teach yourself coding but it's very difficult and brainlets always give up like they do on most pursuits so good luck with rhat
Paying is illegal in my country plus the last thing I need in my life is an STD.
It's a good desk for a poor person like myself.
It looks nice while still being made of cheap material.
It's 50%
Any one work in sales? I wanna switch over in my company but I need some pointers.
Okay yeah that sounds pretty fucking intense
I hate that I worked at my job so long that I recognize that desk set up
can I get career advice from you then
i'm 28 and have a low paying trade
I don't. I only now just shitpost on Yea Forums.
Most people can't find the focus and end up depressed because all they have in life is vidya. Humans are hardwired to interact socially so many of them end up feeling lonely and suicidal, no matter how hard they try to convince themselves otherwise. You need something that shakes up your schedule like a job, an outdoors hobby, a creative hobby, otherwise it's a dead end.
t. Former neet of 6 years
There just arent any game I wanna play right now anons.
What do you mean?
this
Not necessarily, actually. You are just a large country where pretty much everyone, no matter how retarded, has access to the internet.
The primary language on the web is English, which is the main language in the USA, too. I can't speak for every country, but being German, I know that the web is full of retarded Germans - but retarded Germans can usually not speak English, so they stay on German sites where foreigners will never notice them.
I always say that there's two kinds of Germans on the internet: Those who speak English and those who have no god damn fucking clue what they're talking about.
When an American posts something retarded somewhere, the international community finds it immediately and can make fun of it. I believe, this is why it might seem like the USA have a higher concentration of retards.
I don't pay for sex, i'm just saying it's the better option.

According to Yea Forums low paying trade doesn't exist unless you're a incompetent lazy ass. You should be a foreman making 6 figure income if you're been doing it for more than 3 years
If this was a few centuries ago none of these people would be alive and they wouldn't be able to procreate and spread they lazy attitude.
Why are you here then?
These people are in that poaition because their lives are fucked up for one reason or another not because they retired wealthy at 30 and have any sort of a fulfilling life really man

yeah giving up the coding thing is exactly what happened to me last year when I gave it a shot.
I'm not afraid of work though, can you divulge more?
I only care about my hobbies. I don't want to work. I wish there was a way to make money for video games while being a NEET though.

thats really good. I think at that age I had only about 6k
i guess Yea Forums doesn't know about meat cutting then because even as market manager i'm looking at $55k, which is still garbage
Like it or not, capitalism has taught us to tie our self-worth to productivity. Many NEETs suffer from low self-esteem and anxiety. I know even as a wagecuck, if I do nothing during the long breaks, I start to feel like a loser. And whenever I had really long stretches out of work or school, I'd get to some of my lowest points, emotionally.
If they were boomers who grew up in the 70s, maybe they’d have a home and a career with a high school degree.

I don't want to go to school and be put in debt when I have no income, nor do I want my mother to pay for more for me than she already has. I'd like to be a sound engineer, which is apparently a 1 year course costing $13,000 in my city, but I'm wary about being qualified to work only 1 year of education. I should find a job and try, and despite my optimistic attitude and ability to hold a conversation with pretty much anyone - I feel like 6 years of unemployment or doing anything looks absolutely horrid on any resume. I hate how lying on a resume is basically my only choice since I like to be as honest as possible, but I really have no choice. The only job interview I've went to was a few months back. I laughed and passed myself off well to the interviewer to the point where they asked me to come in for a second interview a few days later, but they never called back.
I don't really have any goals in life and am rather content, I just want to live comfortably and enjoy my hobbies.

I think people need to realize that’s there’s two pathways that can work big in the end and it always with something “shitty” I guess. It’s not really not a big deal.
>go to school to deal with student loans and a long year gap before you graduate
>go to work to start from below and a long year gap to be GM and whatever beyond that.
People need to stop using work, career, business, etc as an attribute to “retire” early. You’re allowed to actually pick and enjoy what you do, you guys realize that right? If you like to help people as a Doctor, that’s fine. If you just like Pizza and retail, that’s good too.
Living with parent until I finish grad school. I aint got time to worry about rent and debt AND school. Thankfully my mom is pretty chill and makes decent money. Cant wait to pay her back for all the shit she's done for me.

Based ESL elitist retard
Fair point. We “Amis” (never understood that term, but hey) tend to be fairly loud in how we do...anything. So naturally we attract a lot of attention. Honestly, you could write a series of books on foreigners perceptions of Americans, and how and why they’ve stayed remarkably the same for over 200 years.
I was the same at your age. I was set to be an apartment owner by 25. I should be collecting a free $250-$300 a week now.
Thanks to depression and a shit girlfriend I fucked it all up and don't own shit now. lol
It's fucking awful dude. You feel like your own worst enemy, a prisoner in your own mind. You don't feel like you're choosing this life, you feel like you're here because you have no other option. You feel like you're too stupid, too left behind, too ugly, and too socially retarded to make it by in life.
I dissociate a lot because of how detached I am from the world now. I feel like being able to put my life back together is hopeless by this point. It's hard to even want to try to improve. I'm trying little by little, but not a day goes by that I'm not an anxious, depressed mess having breakdowns about how fucked everything is. And I'm in a better position than most NEETs, and it still fucking sucks.
I WISH I had the capability and fortitude to advance in life and become an adult. But I feel like I'm too stunted now.
It's not a good life dude. It's fucking hell.
Usually I have a bit of time for vidya but honestly I spend the majority of it browsing this shithole instead and listening to music. I think the problem I'm having is that there's such a huge library of games to play but I really don't want to start something I might not finish. I go the gym regularly after work so by the time I get home I just don't have enough motivation to play anything for 1-2 hours because it feels like I won't finish it.
Every game is free when you're a NEET.
>Majority of posters here are barely literate and can't do basic math.
I literally can't do basic math and that's part of the reason I can never work retail.
What job?
>humblebragging
We get it. You have nice things and want to show them off, but pretend like you don't so you dont come off as a bragger.
At 21 I was 40k in debt. Luckily I paid it off at 22 after getting a job

I'd rather kill myself than work retail. Dealing with single mother customers all day would be a nightmare.
I only play on the weekend. Work in the city as a forwarding agent and also have to commute, so I use my freetime for fitness, cooking etc. Atleast the weekends come quick and time passes more slowly than during the week.
Not a Floridian but I can imagine Florida is going to get A LOT better after the boomers die off. That's assuming niggers and spics don't replace them, though.
I'm trying
nice try FBI
is this proof that networking is just as important as schooling?
I am with you, but only because his bait is plain insulting
were you singing motorpsycho?
Just started my White Castle break.
AMA
Nah they would have never worked to begin with.
They can't hold a job because it is too stressful.
Normally natural selection would have wiped these guys out but other hard workers coddle them and keep them existing and spreading.
Where do you live in cali , friend? I ppan to move back for my job at some point
I only play games in sporadic bursts of 2-3 days and then 2 months of nothing these days.
The single best decision I've ever made was when I decided to stop playing any kind of multiplayer games 4 years ago. Made me find more time for everything else and also more happy.
Yes goy. (((Uncle Sam))) wants you to help your greatest ally expand their country.
>That's assuming niggers and spics don't replace them, though
They will though. That's what is happening in all white areas/countries. Half the reason for this out of control migration is to get more workers and tax to pay for boomers retirement and healthcare, buy shitskins don't work so the plan is failing.
>just as important
It's infinitely more important than a degree. Infinitely.
Same but I feel like its too late to do anything so I'll probably off myself at the end of the year. Not really worried about it either that's just how life is sometimes.
The same thing happened to me. I wonder how common this experience is among people in tech or jobs that are somewhat similar like accounting.
People won't employ me because I got fired from my last two jobs for punching people

you have time, imagine at 30+
It's not that the games are tiring, you fool, it's just that you'd rather get some sleep
>boomers
They’ll just be replaced by their retarded children.
>niggers and spics
Eh, Cubans are fine. Guatemalans and Mexicans I don’t know, but likely bad news. It’s the Haitians you’ve gotta watch out for, literally scum of the earth.
I was a dog sitter for some rich community.
Shit is cash.
state and hourly pay?
This
I don't play, it's either games/entertainment or work because I end up exhausted, the kind no energy drinks, sleep or vitamins can get rid off.
even when i was a wagecuck that hated myself for existing and constantly thought about suicide I still finished 31 games in a year
I'm actually not unattractive, I just live in indiana and have standards higher than methed up trailer trash.
>hey man wanna play (game) with us?
>sure, just download this cracked version and I'll run a cracked server we can play on with nobody else
I know someone exactly like you and the only reason we keep him around is to make fun of him and get doujin recommendations.
Elaborate. You'd either have to be retarded and/or surrounded by retards to punch someone on shift.
>not that they’re necessarily wrong
Don't fight it, man. When I was up in G-ville, all my friends were hicks because I couldn't stand the pretentious college crowd. It only bugs me that some of the nicest people I've met in central FL are the same ones that donate to have those fetus billboards plastered all over I-75. Oh, and I always clench when passing the giant Confederate flag waving over the I-4/I-75 junction.
I've always been the brilliant, but shy, guy
so now I've seen all my friends and other people I knew in uni having a job just because basically they begged for it, and/or are working for they're parents, or their parent's friends, or starting a business with they're parents money
I'd say it's key
>Falling for a wagebait job
Dumb. Ass. You could be making more and doing way less if you weren't a fucking tool
Babies. I was NEET for like 8 years (only worked like 3 months of the year) and it was great. Spent my days gaming, shitposting, fapping and down the beach swimming or fishing. The only thing I didn't have was a moist hole to fuck. I miss it. Work doesn't make your life better, it's a load of garbage.
I work from home, concept artist.
Supposedly my work days are 8 hours long, but 90% of the time I spend 6 of those playing vidya or watching random crap and 2 hours half-heartedly drawing something up. At least once per week, usually twice if the project isn't pushing me too hard, I straight up skip days and just to whatever I want instead and work an extra hour the next day to compensate.
I also get fully paid travel + expenses a few times per year to attend... things related to the hobby I like, for work of course but at least it's interesting and I get to weeb out for free. Thanks to that I don't feel any need to travel outside of work, I just spend every day at home and go out once every 3 or so days for grocery shopping and taking out trash.
Pretty comfy. It's like the "Learn to program" meme except I didn't have to learn shit or put any mental effort into my work, drawan' talent naturaly came up while bored during class for the most part. Guess I couldn't ask for anything better.
I know how you guys feel and I offer you my sympathies as a fellow former neet. I was stuck in hell as well but god/lady luck/ whoever the fuck decided it's not over yet and I got a job out of nowhere so there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Stay strong and never kill yourself, you'll have plenty of time to be dead in the future.
You don't need basic math to work retail unless you're behind the register, and even then it's debatable. But yeah I wouldn't recommended either like the other user said.
Fuck.. this is me without the conversation skill and neet since middle school. You might be able to bullshit yourself in an interview, I am fucked though.
Its a good thing I don't have any friends or talk to people then. Jokes on you idiot.
You got the perfect skillset to do whatever the fuck you want. If you don't like your current job you can pack up and look for literally any other job. Find something that interests you even a little bit or work somewhere with reduced hours and try to build a side business. It's not even hard, just takes a bit of time to get started.
If you worked for the past few years you should have enough savings to support yourself with anyways.
Not him but bakersfield is "nice". Cost of living is cheap last I checked. My friend has a nice house theyre renting for like 1200 and its pretty sizable. Downside is that youre in bakersfield. Air quality is poop, not much to do here in terms of social activities, but we're like an hr or two drive from beaches and LA which is nice.
Friends from Portland say bakersfield is the the new Portland.
Stay positive, user. I work for a state agency currently and live with my parents, thinking about getting a Masters and moving out eventually (but I get along with my parents fine, so no huge rush.) point being, if a mediocre shit like me can get a semi-decent job, you definitely will.
here ano take this KEKPIN. You are such a good boy
Then he would be a wizard.
Do make him stray from the path he is destined for.
Out of habit and lack of alternatives that aren't filled with braindead retards.
>implying modern Yea Forums knows how to exif let alone doxx someone
I actually did bullshit my way through pretty well, I should keep trying. Me and the guy laughed a bit even over some stuff, I assume someone pulled some strings and got a friend hired though.
That's literally what ATCs do
only 2 boxes have gold balls in them which makes 2 extra silver balls irrelevant
once you have a gold ball the next one will be either silver or gold
50%
Long story for first job fired but second time I punched a crazy homeless dude off his head who started throwing things at me but apparently there's a zero tolerance policy. They told me I should have counted to 10 like lmao what
All I hear from people online or people I talk to is that they slack off at work half the time and everything's great, but somewhere I know it cannot be real. I'm legit terrified of starting to work after I finish my Master.
Not everyone is lucky dude some people are just born to fail.
>work in nursery for 10 hours every day
>deal mostly with assholes who end up killing the plants I sell them because they don't listen to my advice

What feeling is this Yea Forums?
I already knew that, avatar anime poster. Please stream your inevitable suicide, I want to see how pathetic your living conditions are.

Brother is in the same boat if not worse, but what the fuck do I do to start embracing being independent bros.

>summer hits

Anyone else have this problem?
Theres a 2 in 3 chance you selected a ball out of the box with 2 gold balls, meaning you have a 2 in 3 chance of the other ball in the box being gold. Did nobody here graduate high school?
Sleep after work, exhaustion cured, 6 hours of vidya.
>not getting a better job
Come on now
>be a narcotics salesman
>work like an hour a day
>spend the rest on vidya
It's not that hard
Wrong.
There's a 1 in 2 chance because there are ZERO gold balls in the 2 silver ball box.
Thanks user, I bought a papa John's to celebrate. I even got dipping cheese!
Get more sleep at night. I work as a construction electrician doing high rises and I manage to get high and play vidya 4ish hours each night
You sound like a miserable bitter old crone. I'd put you in a cardboard box and duct tape it so people are spared your miserable bitter old crone face.
I got a CS job, half of the day I shitpost on Yea Forums next to work and listen to music via headphones all day, unless a problem is really interesting and challenging, then I might actually concentrate on something for once.
>I always really baffled when I see NEETs complain about finally getting a day off, too tired to do anything and before they know it's 9 pm and time for bed to wake up and wage slave for another 6 day in a row
Try wageslaving 2 jobs and going to uni. I average 4 hours of sleep a night and work literally every day. Luckily it's almost fucking over
Here's a hint. Most of that is absolute bullshit.
I also want to add, I wouldn't suggest settling down here. Its a good cheap place to go to school or fuck around. But this place is not good living.
It's 2/3rds you retards. You have to take into account the fact that, out of the 3 initial boxes, you picked one with a gold ball in it. From the start, it's way more likely that you picked the box with 2 gold balls versus the box with just 1 gold ball, hence 66%.
Its such a dumb line of thinking though. Who thinks this is going to work in the long run? Not mentioning the costs, I live in Germany and the muselmänner cost us 85billion during this government cycle alone. Whats the plan once Africa's population reaches 2 billion by 2050?
Anyone else have this problem?
I think it has to do with perceived scarcity. When you have all the time to play games, you have all the time to play games, it wouldn't matter if you played them now or a month from now.
Vaguely similar feeling, I watch animes about young love and groups of friends going on adventures and having fun and then I look at my own life and I think to myself "that stuff must be real, but I wasn't allowed to be part of it" and I get really depressed because all I have in my future is 40 more years of wage slaving and being afraid to talk to people I know don't care about me at all.
Just graduated HS and had a fucking existential crisis when I realized that this might be my last summer off and then I'll have to beg for jobs and work for the rest of my life.
I might become an electrician or something just so I have decent paying job with no school debt but I want to actually make friends with people who aren't electricians.
What do I do?

Make basic bitch WordPress themes for idiots and charge them thousands for it

No it isn't.
