>played 30 minutes of spiderman, tried to play arma 3 but closed it almost immediately and now just lying on the couch exhausted and will probably fall asleep within the hour having played almost nothing today
I sure love work
Time to play gets scarcer they older I get. I’m fortunate now that my fiancée is very accommodating with my game time, but I’m starting to pick up overtime hours for extra dosh. And we plan on having kids fairly soon once we’re married.
I’m very picky with my games now, at least. I binged DMC5 for two weeks, picked up Nioh on sale, but am currently replaying FFXII to hopefully complete that video essay I’ve had stewing in my head for a few years.
I find keeping busy, both mentally and physically, makes it much easier to enjoy games when i do sit down to play them.
Can't play games for more than an hour without feeling extremely bored, it sucks
I have a 3-day weekend so if there is a game I want to play I do nothing but play it for the entire 3 days. I really hate having to wait a whole week to pick up where I left it off if I didn't finish it that weekend though.
time and money are fucking nothing to me. it's having absolutely no energy at the end of the day that fucks me up
what are some kino jobs where you don't have to deal with normies?
literally impossible, we are doomed for eternity
Go to work, smoke, play monster hunter, workout, smoke, sleep, wake up, smoke play monster hunter, workout, go to work, smoke, play monster hunt...
Why are you guys so sad all the time?
Stop being whiny little bitches.
99.99% of people who have ever lived have had way worse lives than you.
Fuck.
Probably graveyard stocking or some shit.
>tfw just interviewed for a job and basically all got it
It's from 4-1 which sucks, but, ya know. How do you guys even have time to post here? If I do get hired, I will have time for work, the gym and at most an hour of vidya a day
>Walgreens
Yeah I have time to play and get the pay for it.
Fucking kids had to leave before the 4th of July though. Damn it.
You make this thread once every day, please stop
>falling for the gym meme
xaxaxaxaxaxa
Have time AND money right now but not enough interest.
should I ask what the r is for?
This. Unless you're working a shitty fast food (which is the worst retail you can do honestly), money is money, and hell even benefits for our unhealthy asses.
Thank fucking god I have rich parents and a trust. I have pretty decent luck, I honestly feel for wagefags. Anyways, I'm playing Hollow Knight right now, it's nice.
Oh yeah. I've got about 4 hours after work M-F to do whatever I want. That doesn't include food, since I usually make that or buy it first thing when I get off.
Weekends are free, I live by myself, no girlfriend, no kids. It probably also helps that I genuinely enjoy working, and it's almost irrelevant what kind of work it is. I've done hard labor, IT work, desk jokey stuff, food service, I like it all. Some are better than others, but just doing something feels really good to me.
Cut out the smoking and this sounds pretty based user
you need sunlight and exercise
Seething wagie. Shouldn't you be in bed? You've got work in the morning, and the bossman won't be happy with you being tardy.
>How do you guys even have time to post here
I spend an hour when I wake up and an hour or two before bed and I know that's why too much. My friends that browse agree and do maybe a few hours a week.
To be honest I think I'm aging out of the website because we all seem to be using it less. 22 btw, browsing since 2012.
I work 12h/day on average and 8 on weekends.
I have neither time nor energy to play anymore. But every now and then comes a game I fall in love with I squeeze every second of free time I have to play it. It's great, I feel alive again, and that's the only reason I haven't sold my console yet.
Last one was Nier Automata, I'm hoping Death Stranding will be the next.
Buy Bitcoin if you want to escape wageslavery.
already at 40 hours of work this week with 32 more coming, but at least I have next week off
>12h/day
You a shift lead?
that feel when salaryman whose 20’s are rapidly coming to an end and all he wants to do is listen to the DKC2 soundtrack to instead of manage his people
8 hrs of work, 2 hrs of commute, rest for eating and gaming while socializing
>Tfw finally made it and have tons of money and never have to worry about anything but too tired to play games for more than a couple hours
Why is it like this?
It depends, I still have to deal with normies at my job but I get to tell them to fuck off because it has nothing to do with them
being a mailman gets you out of the house and not have to deal with people outside of friendlies, who are usually not awful to briefly talk to.
I still can play games but the ''thoughts'' are always roaming inside my head making me not always enjoy what i am playing
>that feel when you finish a game but not enough time to start a new game before the next game you want is out
Waiting for Mario Maker on friday, idk what to play until then, sick of smash/kart/hyrule warriors
No, I'm just in a tough industry. Unpaid overtime is kinda required if you want to do a good job, which is required if you want to rise up the ladder. I hope it pays off before I'm dead.
>Unpaid overtime
What the fuck shit industry are you working in?
I buy games like mad never touch them I don't have time.
Why yes, I do live at home while working a few days a week to pay my student loans while searching for a better job and trying to build an audience online so I can live off patreonbux instead
How could you tell?
dilate and then have sex, incel
I do, regularly, with my SO
I think he's false flagging
I've worked night shift since 2010 and have insomnia and narcolepsy. I'm lucky to get an hour in a night before work IF my disabled son goes to bed at a decent time and stays asleep.
Weekends I'm usually fighting to stay awake to play anything and sometimes I can pay attention to it.
I have no time, maybe on weekends
I wish I could wake up earlier,could exercise or game before work then
Right now I wake up, go to work from 8-5, get home, do normalfag chores and shit, make dinner, do my sidejob/ other hobby of drawfagging for money
then maybe have an hour to game
also have my GF moving in soons o thatll be a lot less free time
I have time to play shit but i dont
Happily a few friends make me play siege and i love it its the one game that clicked after years and years, the one that made me feel the magic again
But other than that I've just been idle not doing much and I've been having difficulties starting and continuing anything
Oh, my bad then. Carry on.
I work two jobs and go to class in the evenings
I’m lucky if I get 5 hours a week to play, and that’s usually cutting into sleep an hour a night or so. It wasn’t always like this, but I keep telling myself it will be better when I have my degree. My grades are exceptional so I don’t think I’ll have trouble finding a job and then I’ll have my evenings back for games.
>tfw work full-time

I can't imagine how it is for people who work while going to school full-time. Jesus.

HOW DO YOU ESCAPE
I'm a bit paranoid, so I'd rather not say even anonymously. It's technologically advanced and intellectually challenging work, normally a good thing, but it kills you to force yourself to remain productive for so many hours.
Anyway, I'm trying to create a future for myself. The monetary compensation is not there yet, but good things already happened. 2020 will likely be a turning point for me.
I just need to hang in there (don't we all?)
How young. I've been browsing since 2008 and am almost 26. I know that had I not lead a neet lifestyle, I would have stopped browsing regulalrly maybe 2 years ago.
That’s not true though
A middle ages peasant farmer who has no teeth and a fucked skeleton, who will die at 32 and works until sundown just to barely make enough food to eat but who has a wife and nine kids (five deceased) unquestionably has a more fulfilling life than me with my health and comfortable temperatures and easy transportation.
Unforunately its probably some kind of skill/trade where you can just fix/build things and more or less work on your own
>end up either watching TV or Youtube mindlessly
This is the part you've gotta stop. Spend your spare time searching for a better job, or learning new skills, or just doing freelance work to save money.
>I'm a bit paranoid, so I'd rather not say even anonymously.
Yeah and I'm the fucking second coming.
Fuck off.
Boss makes a dollar
I make a dime
That’s why I shitpost
On company time
i need a cup of coffee
I used to think that. I’m 31 and have been here since 2005.
Help.
You wanna job? My company is hiring all the time
>double quarter pounder

This is what I just had. I'm not even fat.
I have no idea what in my post has made you so agitated.
Keep up the good work.
deep night security officer
i get payed $23/hr with full high end benefits to drive around, take a nap in my truck, play on my laptop/phone in my truck, and shit post on Yea Forums.
I can't eat fast food after my sister told me all the horror stories when she was a manager at mcdogballs
>everyone keeps saying "bro become a security guard it's so easy"
>I look like a little 5'8 faggot and have a gentle voice so no place will hire me even though it's not like you have to be big anyway
Sounds like my brother except for the workout part, also he likes to bitch and complain alot.
Because most gamers are basement dwelling emos.
fast food is resturant not retail, the worst retail would be target or walmart.
We’re at a rate of unemployment right now that’s so low it’s actually bad, well below the natural rate. Companies cannot find workers.
Not only is this the best time to find a new job—maybe something you thought you weren’t qualified for before even—but jobs competing for workers WILL cause wages to inflate. If you are not looking for a job or ensuring that your pay is steadily increasing, you WILL lose purchasing power in the near future, even if the economy doesn’t crash (which it is HISTORICALLY due for).
I haven't played vidya in a good while. I recently bought crash bandicoot remaster to play on and off. I'm pretty much a casual now. I haven't played sekiro, resident evil 2 remake, or devil may cry 5. I have a gf though so that's nice.
Tell me user
too hot to turn my computer on
Like what? She's probably full of shit. I worked there for a time and nothing bad goes on. Sure, you're going to get an attitude or they're going to put pickles on your burger when you asked for no pickles, but no one gives a fuck about pulling some stupid prank or whatever. You're constantly rushing to do this or that, no one has time for such stupid shit. There are cameras everywhere, we were too scared to even lean on something to rest a bit lest we got fired. Everyone there is either a teen, a single mom or ex-con who can't get work somewhere else.
Thanks m8, I’m trying.
A buddy of mine is like 5’6” and got a night security job for a while. You’re not a castle guard or a bodyguard, they just want you there to wave a flashlight around and say “Who’s there???”
she used to work at subway and she had to make lizards shit on the subs
People keep saying this but I've been looking for my first job for months and can't get anything and I have a BS degree.
that does sound good but i'm too paranoid to risk getting shot by cletus or jamal
Says who? Finding work is hard af right now
>playing video games
user Im just here to shitpost. I cant imagine playing video games like a child.
>had a job interview a week ago
>went pretty well

Do I cut my losses and keep applying elsewhere?
>girl at work is so nice and friendly to me that I love being a wagecuck
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD I FUCKING LOVE SEEING HER AND TALKING WITH HER EVERYDAY!!!!!
Always apply elsewhere if they wanted you you’d have been working already
hours to commute
Why do people do this to themselves? Just work near your house. At least tell me it's total and not just going there.
She’s cucking you., you know that right?
>that one girl who was always nice to me and didn't like how everyone else was cold to me
>she quit
t. pajeet software developer
The only time they will actually hire you based on how intimidating you look is if you are working security at some casino, race track or in some cases corporate security. Everything else it really doesn't matter
not playing or not having any other form of entertainment is your source of depression
>Work from home.
>Have barely any work.
>Get to lay around and play video games all day.
I’m going to have to quit for better pay in a couple months, but god, this is the best.
Once I start a game I like I'mok, but I'm too depressed to even start one most of the time
>hey I have about 30 mins to play vidya before I have to go to bed
>game update
Keep applying. I'm in a similar situation where I went for a test today, and expect an interview 2 weeks from now. You'll be waiting on something that isn't guaranteed.
probably has a black bf
also i hope you get doxxed for posting that screengrab over and over
fucking THIS
I work in a dead end retail position and even I get paid overtime. I truly hope you don't continue to subject yourself to putting in extra work for free, even if you do like your job.
It was mostly related to stuff not getting clean and things getting moldy but they still served it to customers. I can't remember specifics.
kek
It's hard to find a job when you live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere.
I'm probably gonna be forced outta NEETdom within the next 3 years.
It this this happening to me like 4 times to realize that no matter how well you think an interview went, you can easily just never hear from them again. Keep applying on applying homie
>It was mostly related to stuff not getting clean and things getting moldy but they still served it to customers. I can't remember specifics.
Sounds like bullshit. They're pretty strict about cleaning everything between shifts and if you don't, then you will hear about it when the next shift rolls through.
I fear that someday my biological desires will make me fall as low as you have.
>my fiancée is very accommodating with my game time
bro...
You mean before the end of July, right? I'll get you started: indeed.com
What the fuck do you mean three years?
I have the pirate's curse where I pirate every switch and PC game but have no desire to play any of them
I live near a major city and getting a job is hard. Finding the jobs is easy, getting them is difficult. It's hard no matter where you live.
seriously how do I get the night security gig
sounds like it's right up my alley but I'm also scared shitless of being a target to some robber or something
do you need a gun permit or whatever the hell or what
I'd suggest sending a generic "thank you" follow up email to the interviewers. It's a way for them to at least remember you 2 hours after the interview.
That's called a cheapskate/wares pup.
Meanwhile I'm single and work about 5 hours a day and can afford all the video games I want with plenty of time to play
Really looking forward to Super Mario Maker 2 after I get off of work on Friday morning. Gonna play that shit like crazy all weekend.
>What the fuck do you mean three years?
That's just the amount of time I believe I have left until my parents kick me out.
Live with my parents and work 16 hrs/week in a factory. Spend about 160$/month on vidya and save the rest. Feels great actually getting along with my parents, helping them out and not dumping them in a nursing home where they pay 100k/year.
>I’m fortunate now that my fiancée is very accommodating with my game time
dios mio...
No I mean literally the town I grew up in had no jobs. They didn't even have a grocery store, pharmacy, or anything. It's literally just a few homes and a family run gas station. No school either.
I have some reasonable hours per day, but the job I'm at is so incredibly stressful I panic multiple times per shift and I think I'm gonna suffer a heart attack in the near future
Same, though I refuse to hack my Switch due to online being fucked on it
Therefore I'm absolutely loving my Switch and play it daily
>enrolled in a summer school because I'm trying to speed through my grad program
>expected this summer to be like the last and have time to play shit with my bros

How old are you?
I moved back temporarily after getting laid off, I just turned 27. Obviously I intend to move out again, but it's pretty fucking nice not handing over over a thousand dollars a month to scholmo for a shitty cramped apartment.
I'm weirdly obsessed with completing a permadeath run of this really long game. Game's not even that hard, it just requires a cool head and patience- but I get anxious and flub simple sections really easily.
same with other anons
just graduated and I can't get anything besides half of it is super entry level shit or I'm not qualified
i pirate everything and i only play old games nowadays anyway. i was a neet for a year, got a call center job, quit after a month because of the horrible anxiety it gave me, and now i'm a neet again.
It doesn’t mean you’ll get the job you want, but it entry level shit is paying more and the barrier of entry is overall lower
Unemployment is so low in part because we have a very low participation rate, partially because people stop looking for any job but the one they want.
Not like you need to make a career out of it, and maybe your current position IS okay, but these are the numbers
im old, 34. i fucked up a lot in my 20s but the past few years things have gotten a lot better
You don't have depression faggot shut up and kill yourself
Retail would probably be bearable if baby boomers didn't exist.
based and wasteoftimepilled. i went through this phase hard. now i am sick to look at vidya.
Being a retro warez pup is still lame.
no shit, renting is literally the biggest scam on the planet its absurd how predatory it is
Dude, most night security jobs you're being paid to stare at a camera. If someone actually shows up to rob a place you call the police. If you're not a bouncer you don't have to worry about getting into fights.
do you take medication regularly have you looked at the problems and applied a solution?
>over a thousand a month for rent
Jesus Christ do you live in Commiefornia?
I'm only paying 450 a month for my one room, kitchen and bathroom and even then it's a pretty decent size.
>about to turn 22

>i fucked up a lot in my 20s but the past few years things have gotten a lot better
Details?
nah, those were prices in Jew York. Even more than I said.
I'd love to move to a "flyover" state and pay jack shit for an apartment/home. My family is in ass-expensive new england though, but one day I will go to the somehow find myself in the cheapo promised land.
>living in the city is expensive but there is good internet and jobs
>living in the country is cheaper but there is shit internet and no jobs
Fuck.
Hahaha jokes on you even the entry level stuff doesn't want me
I'm approaching my mid twenties and I've only worked for a year. I'm desperately searching
It depends. I know some ups drivers who constantly get retards approaching them asking to just 'get their package off the truck' when the driver doesn't even have one for them
>literally never went to school
>no high school diploma
how screwed am I?
Get a security job. You don't get to talk to people you get to threaten them. Especially if its an armed security job.
Working as an armed courier is the most silent job I've ever done.
What job?
Just lie.
Actually fucked unless if you go into trades or get extremely lucky with arts
>went back to school fr a trade
>getting certificate Friday to start looking for work
>no motivation
>have money saved
>don't feel like buying games let alone playing the ones I already own
>hanging out with friends is now depressing
>spend days just shitposting and watching netflix/anime
I think I'm just bored of life at this point, maybe I need to move somewhere else
Gimmie a link to your studies professor
honestly i dread going to work but when im there its fine and the hours breeze by, especially since i like my coworkers
it's not that i dont play vidya because its bad, it's just a lifetime of consuming digital media ultimately being somewhat unsatisfying
As long as you have the experience, it doesn't matter. Unless you're applying to be a teacher, no job is going to waste time calling up whatever college you put on your resume to confirm whether or not you went there.
you can pay like 20$ or some shit to take your high school equivalency
Generally your local employment center will even pay for it
>had an interview a week ago
>it's a police dispatch job, and for the interview they just asked me 9 questions

>girl who interviewed me told me good luck as she walked me out
I think it went well, but honestly I have no idea.
I have the luxury to stay home and try to be an artist. But all I can think about is drawing and browsing Yea Forums. And you can probably guess which activity gets more of my time.
I spend all day either working on arguing with people, with no time off. Everytime I consider playing a game, I feel like I'm wasting time, and work more instead.
Please help me.
I play vidya sometimes after work. I'm pretty busy now though. Full time salaried electrical engineer. I'm not too broken up about losing video games though, they've been shit for ages now and I'm beyond the point where I feel like I missing anything anymore. I spend more time just designing and building random shit in my spare time or going out drinking with friends.
I guess I'm starting to turn normalfag now. Perhaps it's for the best.
also to add to this, unless you're EXTREMELY dumb, getting your HS diploma and a year or two of community college is insanely easy, they're literally made for borderline retarded people and if you're on Yea Forums you're probably not that dumb
...oh no user im so sorry
Where the Fuk are you staying? Not even Texas had prices that low for an apartment with no roommates
Been playing Dragon's Crown lately,lots of people still play online. Play a few dungeons and try not to get anyone killed.
Living expenses are a lot higher on the coasts than the middle of the country. I've seen apartments in the Mid-West that are as low as $300 or $400 for a decently sized living space, but somewhere in New York or Boston would be at least 1400 a month for a similar sized place.
Probably in some shithole state like Alabama or Oklahoma. Either that or he's neck deep in the hood somewhere.
work for a theme park as security for half a year to get your foot in the door then apply to School districts and anywhere security is needed, believe it or not deep night shift is always the lest popular and day shift the most
It wouldn't be. The general public is still so fucking braindead and entitled even without boomers
>closing time is 6:30

People treat retail employees like fucking servants and yell at you for just doing your fucking job, and act like them not showing up before the store closes is your problem
Trying to get out of my current job to the one a lot closer that I just had an interview with today on my day off. Man, if I get this I'll have way more time for video games and art and not have to drive and sit in traffic for hours.
Only time will tell. But I'm trying to think of some other job to apply to that would be better than my current retail one.
Should I get a girlfriend? I already missed out on teen love, I don't want to miss out on young love entirely.
The only people treated worse than retail is probably fast food. People are already dicks but they’re HUNGRY dicks
God forbid you are a cashier, people yell at you for the failures of people in other departments that you have no control over.
It's so cheap because it forces you to live in a shitty state with nothing to do, no public services, and no opportunities for growth. There's a reason why anyone with half a brain wants people want to get the hell out of those states and only fools get drawn in by the low prices.

This is pretty basic info
>I’m fortunate now that my fiancée is very accommodating with my game time
Depends, what do you plan to get out of a relationship?
I'm in Ohio. My apartment is pretty much a roach infested shithole and the cheapest place in town. I even qualified for the poverty internet program and only pay 15 bucks a month. I can afford it all on a part time job so it's pretty sweet only working around 30 hours a week.
Love and companionship.
Engineer
Just don’t settle for a whale or no lip. The best gfs I had also had money and could match me sex drive.. that’s something to consider. Cause if it’s you pulling all the weight you’re gonna have a bad time and end up cucked
Basically get a mommy gf to support you for a bit but don’t get into all that “love” shit too fast while you’re young.
I feel this deeply
You won't get either if you're unemployed and even trying to find work.
Honestly, get a dog. Cheaper and less of a headache
I'm glad I got teen love because I couldn't even imagine the bullshit of having a girlfriend at 30
Single is comfy, you can do literally anything you want with nobody around to take up your time
The lower prices are worth it, and if you think you have to live on a coast to live somewhere nice, you're retarded.
What qualifications I need
I can only play games when I get drunk.
don't listen to this user some mommy gfs aren't all that cracked up to be and will ditch you
Why does everyone cry about the lack of meat? Like we just arbitrarily gave them less meat than everyone else or something. Like, dude, the meat is pre-measured. Or measured with the serving spoon. Just cope.
Romance is always a risk. Always.
Smart and liking math
If you do it wrong. My first real gf in college was also religious and a virgin though, so she was real gullible. Shoulda married her desu she was rich.
I’m paying for it now oh boy
I'm studying and work part-time.
Yeah but I keep getting crippling loneliness and I keep feeling like I'll regret it if I reach my 30s one day and never experienced young love.
Have money, no time.
God it hurts so much.
I’m not the original guy but I’m interested
Or you get foreigners literally telling you to give them a discount, and they refuse to listen when you say you can't do that
It's because they think if they complain about it you'll just give them extra to shut them up.
Everything's fine and dandy until it's welfare day, then holy fuck kill me. Glad I deliver to the rich side of town now.
I'm smart but I don't like math
How old are you? I guess it's worth finding a gf just to experience it, but you should know going in that she will break your heart eventually. Love is a bitch, no matter how devoted you are to her she'll find a reason to leave eventually.
I'm not saying the apartments aren't nice. But listen, if you're living in an apartment in some bumfuck nowhere town in Kansas with a population of 200 people then you have no opportunities to grow in your future. You'll be stuck being a cook at a waffle house for the rest of your life. That or Walmart. At best maybe you can be a farmer if you have enough money or good enough credit to secure loans to get up and running.
No higher level jobs. Not all urban areas are nice and cities have their downsides but there are loads of options for professional development limited only by how hard you choose to seek them out and that's a huge plus. And mind you, you don't have to live in a city. Living within a 50mi radius is good enough and let me tell you there are some pretty fucking rural looking areas within 50mi of NYC or Boston. It's literally the best of both worlds.
I've been a neet for nearly 8 years now and honestly I should've played more games than I have right now
Old man here, mid 30s
Find someone but make sure they’re putting effort in or they WILL cheat on you and you WILL lose them. Don’t let them become your only source of happiness. Live your own life, a life they actively want to be a part of.
Dating doesn’t change in your 30s except it’s harder to get a date and everyone’s better at fucking
So basically I'm going to be filled with regret either way?
>customer calls you by your real name
How are you not dead?
Work at a factory with tons of tiring manual work but I find its even more draining having to pretend im straight than the job itself.
Pretty much only game on weekends and holidays
>customer calls you by your name
>"Know how I know that?"they ask with a big shit eating grin
Maybe because name tags are thing
Yes
Dating is a hellscape in 2019. I’m not some /r9k/ incel, it just really is shit, for almost everyone, for different reasons. Probably still worth doing but it will occasionally stamp out your will to live.
oddly enough many of those
Most of my friends are actual wageslaves now and can maybe play for 1-1.5 hour before getting off so they don't feel like a piece of shit for work in the morning. kind of starting to realize it's all fucking over. the seemingly endless game sessions with my bros that would go late into the night, the lack of responsibilities, trying out new games with each other, fucking around online, it's all over. I think I will be spending most of 2020 coming to terms with this new reality.
My last partner weren't just the match together as I was hoping, but she also believed I wasn't really trying to find work, when I was. Some have the mommy appearance but they really just want to be spoiled and be stable right away. I can't blame them for wanting stability, but don't fucking come to me then. I'm going to sort it out, I'm just not getting the start I need right now.
>work 8 hours a day at a produce warehouse where I just load yogurt onto a cart all day
>is based on standards i.e, time given vs time actually spent, so it's all about that %
>work weekends where I'm high enough on seniority to get batch orders
>small, 2-3 item orders that are all in the same spot, gives 5-7 minutes to pick it, do the order in 30 seconds
>end the day with 170-200%
>do 2x pay overtime for two hours at the end of the day and do 0 actual work because riding out a 200%
>leave at 1 am at around 150% and drive home listening to music with 0 people on the road
>play some vidya for an hour then go to sleep
>never wear my nametag at work
>customer gets pissed off over some petty shit and they immediately look at my shirt, trying to find a name
>"WHAT'S YOUR NAME!"
>Tell them some generic fake name and they storm off
I'm going to start giving them anime names. I love how these retards think I'd willingly give them my name when they're clearly going to try getting me fired
I cannot stand customers who think they're gods gift to comedy
>work at a retail store, not fast food
>guy comes in and I ask how I can help him
>"I'll take a cheeseburger, fries, and a milkshake" he says with a smirk
Like man, he tried ordering food at a place that doesn't serve food!? That's fucking crazy!
Trying to self employ. The next time a boomer screams at me until their red in the face I'm going to go postal.
>customer asks for your name
I just lie to them. My work doesn't enforce nametags thankfully
I'm glad you find that comfy because that sounds deathfully boring.
I need at least 10 hours of video games/internet a day.
I do, even if they're just glad that I helped them.
retail? fast food?
>It didn’t scan?
>It must be
>F R E E
I will bury you, old man
Same but I have a gf and a job it's terrible
>too depressed to play
You faggots need to fuck off with this depression meme. All you need to do is force yourself to start up a new single player game and you'll most likely enjoy it.
More often than not I'll sit and stare at my computer screen doing nothing, but the difference between us is I know it isn't depression and just need to make myself move my curser to a different spot before I double click.
Make sure you get a high score!
I'm so glad I don't work retail anymore, I did 10 years and during that period I was at my most depressed and smoking weed every day to cope
Night shift jobs are one of the biggest double edged swords ever. You don't have to deal with traffic, cutting down travel time and gas expenses, and you can easily spend at least half your shift doing absolutely nothing, but staying up over night is exhausting and it's so mentally draining that I don't even have the will to do anything other than sleep and do light activities.
>Studying psych at college, pretty close to transferring to university to get B.A
>tfw have been feeling nervous as shit the past 2 months that now even Vidya can only calm me down a little
I really think my life is going to end in suicide. Already feels like it's all closing in around me and it's only a matter of time. I'll probably make some Etika-style video before I anhero and throw it online for my Yea Forums bros.
Never heard that one but it's stil lame. My favorite is when you scan something and when it doesn't register at first the fucking comedians think "Oh I guess it's free" is like the magnum opus of jokes. Every single time they think they are original
>time for a job, the gym, dating, , 7-8 hours of sleep a night, a little Yea Forums shitposting before bed and even cooking my own mealprep
>still putting 10~ hours a week into my videogame hobby
it's not hard to manage your time, you guys sheesh
You should feel nervous. Isn't psych over saturated?
>he fell for the psych meme
Hope you get your doctorate.
But just think of all the vidya you'll be missing out on
lmao 22 years old, just take out a fucking loan and go to college you faggot
Fast food, then retail, then warehouse, then bee keeping, then retail again, then office work, then retail.
Its the same fucking song and dance.
Most places don't want you anywhere near a gun as a security guard for legal liability reasons
>10 hours a week of video games
Oh fuck me.
I’m glad I don’t fucking work retail anymore. Boomers are the most entitled fucking gibsmedats imaginable, and they are always trying to weasel their way into getting free shit, not paying tax, and losing their fucking shit if you don’t kneel down and lick the dogshit off their shoes. They get mad about physical impossibilities or us not psychically deciding to stock the specific weird thing they and only they want. Fuck.
My writing clients are honestly almost as bad, but at least I only have to deal with 1-2 a day
same honestly
I just don't have the drive to actually do it more than anything
it just sucks when you used to be the smartest guy in school and all the teachers, other kids and their parents(and your own) expected great things from you and yet you turn out a friendless college dropout working minimum wage and all your peers are far more successful than you
I used to be so ashamed I would cry myself to sleep, now I barely feel a thing, im just empty
Depends on what you're trying to go for. Some fields in Psych are begging for people to hop in to work for them.
When you get down to it anything can be a meme. Just ask all those compsci guys who became code monkeys, only to be replaced by Pajeet.
Working night shift gave me a fucking chronic heart condition but jt was almost worth it
>loan
>college
fuck off you dirty kike
I'm not falling for that fucking meme
I always love it when I'd say "What can I get for you today" and they'd fire back with "I could use a million dollars."
If I had a dime for every time I heard someone say shit like that I'd have a billion dollars. It always gets me too when people who are clearly making 6 figures or close to it at least would say that. So fucking glad I'm out of food service.
Are there really people here who only play 1 or 2 hours a day?
>use to work as a cart pusher at Meijer
>it starts raining (we still have to work in the rain unless there's lightning)
>customer says "Having fun yet?" with a forced chuckle and grin
Fuck you.
I think hands down the worst is when customers pretend to be angry like it's some funny joke
>ring them up for a $3 item
>"$3, now that's ridiculous!"
>Tell them that I don't control the prices
>"Oh no I was just joking haha, it's fine you must be tired so you just didn't get it!"
No retard, I get several people a week bitching to me about the prices, so you pretending to be upset over them isn't funny, and it's not my fault I didn't understand your retarded joke
alright dude, enjoy being poor and sad for the rest of your life.
Go back to school user. Community college if you have to. Start this year.
t. you but older
God this is me. Either that or buying a new game just to play once and never touch again.
Yes. Help. It didn’t used to be this way.
why is this r9k garbage even up, none of you want to improve your lives, you want to mope around being qq faggots.
Most actual adults don't have the time or energy to play more than 2 hours a day due to work, family and other obligations.
jokes on you I'm killing myself before I'm 30
I refuse to ever deal with the fucking joke that is school ever again
>used to work at a grocery store
>get told to clean up a spill by the wine
>go there and see several broken bottles of wine, and the guy who broke them is still there
>"I gave you a fun job to do!"
I really fucking wish stores would still impose you break it you buy it rules. Faggots who make such a fucking mess and then laugh about it because they know someone else has to deal with it
They fucking know what they’re doing, they think birching at you will somehow work it’s way up to John Retail himself and he’ll lower his prices because some fuck complained, but they don’t have the balls to engage in an actual confrontation about it
I work from around 2 AM to 8 AM loading packages into delivery vans
Shit is active as fuck, you're always moving and lifting heavy packages into vans, while playing IRL Tetris and trying to make them all fit
I'd take that over a boring ass retail night shift any day
Plus they'll hire literally anybody with a pulse, so if you're one of these "I applied to le everything but a bloobloo they never called back" apply to a package handler position with UPS or FedEx if there is a hub nearby.
Well, since you seem dead set on not wanting to do anything to improve your situation then I'd say it's safe to kill yourself as early as now.
It sucks that life treated you unfairly but if you are waiting for your parents or society to fix all the problems in your life it's never gonna happen so you either work hard to improve your situation as best you can or you just fail and go nowhere or kys. Whatever. Life isn't fair and it owes you nothing.
>working part-time at McD's while finishing a management bachelor's
>state with high minimum wage but not outrageous cost of living
>national guard paying my tuition
>About $30k in student debt by the time I'm done
>Have two close friends with small-buisiness owning dads who might be able to hook me up
Will I make it lads
I am improving my life, that’s why I have no fucking time for vidya. School is time consuming.
It's a little high because me and a co-worker keep trying to out score eachother on hitman maps.
Not that user but I just got my BA and I'm same. Was smartest kid during my school years, had some friends. Now it's been forever since I've socialized, had a friend. Deleted all my social media because even the friends I have younger than me are becoming surgeons and immediately getting into the field and career they wanted. And I'm stuck struggling to get fucking retail work.
>work at a decent company
>just got a raise, promised another rise in 6 months because of my cert and IT skills
>manager genuinely likes me and he's a good guy himself, has never yelled at me and generally leaves me to my thing
>only shit thing are annoying coworkers trying to bacstab me with office politics and getting into arguments on the bus with niggers
>come home and play rdr2 while listening to streams
sometimes i have to remember how good i have it now, it's almost like a dream.
Bro hook me up
Based . I rather work warehouses than around people ever again. Machines don’t talk back
Abuse The fuck out of that nepotism. Shit sucks unless it favors you.

>they get up, between the 3 of them not 1 of these entitled cunts can pick up a single cup
>that's fucking it
>"THANKS FOR PICKING UP AFTER YOURSELF GUYS" as sarcastically as I can

>manager is my brother, I come back up later and ask about them fearing for my job
>he chuckles and says "pffft fuck those faggots"
>if you're on Yea Forums you're probably not that dumb
haha yeah...
>dating
I used to really want a gf, but honestly now I just think it would be a waste of time. Maybe this is a pessimistic point of view, but I already don't have time or energy to do everything I want to do in my free time, and dating takes up so much fucking time.
That and I've had my dick sucked before and it's nothing too special. I have just as much enjoyment out of erp, if not more
do you have anything besides vague advice you retarded normalfag
There is no "improving" to be done. My dream is to be a NEET forever and that's likely not possible.
people who don't pick up their shit after a movie need to die and never reproduce
i think im falling for a chubby girl at my work
>Best job I ever had making $23.15 an hour
>Mandatory weekend shift overtime with time and a half, and double time for Sunday hours
>Make more money than I know what to do with
>No time to do anything ever, and shit ass family is trying to make their pointless drama my problem.
I just want to be a worthless pile of shit and play videogames all day while everyone leaves me the fuck alone.
>Have sex
It sure as shit hasn't fixed anything in my life. I would venture to say that it's only made things worse. Thanks modern feminism for ensuring that workplaces fill up with worthless, unskilled, whiny bitches, and making it so NOBODY wants to take care of the spawn you mistakenly bred.
On a more positive note, when I can squeeze in game time, I enjoyed Crash Team Racing, DMC5, and I've been playing Dead by Daylight with a friend
Do not pursue relationships if you are not stable and economically attractive in any way
>He doesn’t sit through the credits out of respect for the people who made the film
Never gonna make it
But yeah, I used ti work in the theater, a little girl started to clean up after herself and her dad stopped her, said “No dear, they have people for that”. Pissed me the hell off.”
Nice. Tap that ass. Squeeze her belly too.
>barely have to work
>have a ton of time for games
>barely play games
>sit around on Yea Forums all day
It's been like this for like 10+ years. fuck.
Anyone else saving up a large sum of money so they can quit and be alright for a few years without working?
She probably just wasn’t very good. Sometimes blowjobs > sex
I'm an employed normalfag in a good job that started out in a much shittier position not quite the same as yourself but similar in many ways. The exact things I did may not work for you but in general you need to put effort into bettering yourself and escaping your shitty situation. That's just a universal truth. Exactly how you should do that depends a lot on your situation and no one knows that better than you. I can't do it for you and frankly I don't care enough. I have my own life.
Not true
Mechanically or technically prowessed
It's a field engineer job
That's ideal if you want to be single forever.
>24 and haven't worked a day in my life
where do I start? what's the most basic ass job where I don't have to interact with anyone?
did they make you set up a payment plan yet? you usually pay very little in the beginning so you might be fine. and do what that other user said, abuse the fuck out of your connections, life isn't fair so there's no point in playing it fair, get yourself through the door no matter what.
That'd do the job for me too. Also got a job and a lot of sealed/unplayed games
>tfw when a Smartphone fits so well with my schedule and gaming habits that I bought a phone specifically to play games whenever and wherever.
>Buying an old flagship somehow costs less than a proper portable, in addition to decent ports being pennies compared to physical games.
People hate mobile games, but since I really like games and general and don't have the funds to satisfy the common Yea Forums-user sense of quality gaming, I just went full PC/Android.
She probably wasn't. She was really hot, so I think that most people, including myself, didn't really ever tell her to try sucking harder
good taste
i hope she doesn't destroy your life
You'll have to interact with someone, but the goal in the beginning is to not interact with customers. I hear ups/fedex hires literally anyone to load and unload the trucks at the facility
I fix appliances for a living right now. Generally interested if you’re serious and it’s in the continental US. Been debating skipping town.
im gay so yeah
have sex
>Keep buying games from the PSN Store sales or Humble Bundle deals
>Force myself to keep playing at least 2 hours everyday
>Backlog is getting bigger and frustration too because I feel like I have to rush my playthroughs to keep up with my backlog
>28 year old and I start feeling some kind of remorse for playing videogames at my age meanwhile other friends are married or with kids
They make for funny threads on Yea Forums
I got pulled out of my neetdom to do night shift reception at a local high class hotel but I never received proper night audit training, so I can't actually do anything that requires checking in or out, handling paperwork that looks like gibberish to me, so everytime the phone rings or an unexpected issue comes up I get a mini heart attack, bullshitting my way through each month, hoping that I don't just fucking drop dead along the way. I also sleep badly and I can't remember a single dream since I started
Yeah you kinda gotta find a middle ground or just a slut that really likes sucking dick. Most pretty girls are bad about “pleasing” in general they just expect you to be happy you’re in their presence
I don't even care where I work at, I just want work but it seems pretty annoying to simply get a job. Not only that, but why can't there be an option to get paid weekly? I have a lot of shit to pay for but every job seems like that.
Is Restaurant Bussers/Hosts paid weekly? I need something.
>got $60k from a settlement
>have just let it sit in a savings account for years
>no motivation or knowledge to do anything with it
what do
I've had no work for almost 7 months. I leaved because anxiety. When i worked I only played multiplayer games, mobas and that, games in which I don't require to remember things about lore/story/places, just 5-10 min and that's it, to another match. I used to make good money and I bought a lot, really a lot of games on steam, i bought a switch, some old consoles, but I never touched some of them. Now I don't have money and I really want some new games, it's a fucking vicious circle, no money but a lot of time, no time but a lot of money.
I don't know you so I can't vouch for you like I have my friends but if you're willing to move and have even a slightly decent resume applying to NCR is a good mid level field engineer job. They are always hiring because we lose a lot of people who don't want to work 40+ a week.
But I make bank doing that its only June and ive made 80% of my projected salary for the year.
Kinda jealous of women, it’s really easy to at least get an orgasm out of someone by sucking their dick. Eating pussy is way more work and their emotional state needs to cooperate. Or maybe I just had a frigid GF.
ask for help retard
You offering?

Thanks for the tip m8, I’ll look into it
No one responds during the night because my colleagues are sleeping. If you're talking about help in the long run I'm supposed to get training within the next month but who knows how long I'll survive, it's been 3 months and I feel like I have a foot in the grave
Most of the people here don't have a slightly decent resume. All I've got to my name is some temp work and an actual part time fast food job.
I'm basically a neet rn but that will change in augusty
We hire drug addict truckers if you're willing to work who cares
I'm not even a big fan of oral performed on myself. It feels nice, but she's gotta really go to town on my shit for me to actually cum. I've never been with a girl that's truly sub enough to let me manhandle her till she chokes on it (which would probably get me there) I'm just a plain Jane that likes good old fashioned pussy. I wanna kick every girl in the crotch who says she's too tired to have sex. Like, all you gotta do is lie there and recieve dick you spoiled cunt.
when are my parents going to stop doing everything for me and force me to learn how to be independent
and by that I mean kill myself because I literally don't know how to function or do anything
Doesnt sound like mom is the only leech

I'm goddamn jesus christ as far as my family goes
Yeah I don't mind people who clearly appreciate the film but these faggots were clearly waiting for one more goddamn scene because shit can't ever just end on a solid note.
And what galled me the most is what my brother said, apparently they were insistent that "it was just one cup" implying I should've just shut my mouth and picked up that goddamn can. Fuck you faggots.
Pretty common practice. Very few companies hire people for training. Who has the time and money for that?
At my current job I don't feel this feel. It's an easy job, I'm part-time and I usually work mornings so I'm home usually by 3pm and I game till 3am
Thanks for lowering it even further just for me
I play with my friends. So pretty well, actually.
I was hired through nepotism and my CV is a sea of lies, I bullshitted my way through the interview claiming years of experience, in truth I've been neeting since I've finished HS in 2013. I'm pretty good at lying because I did 2 years of on and off acting school, but lately I've grown anxious and hypocondriac so I've been having panic attacks over the smallest things. I'm gonna die soon
Whatchu going into user?
What the hell do you guys do to be so tired? I come back from work and I play videogames, read books or skate. Sometimes I go to concerts.
I think first things first is to not try to make yourself look better in your situation when you're all miserable. That post reeks of pathetic neetdom.
Goggle any mediocre effeminate receipical
Same here why bother
How can you say you’re hypocondriac and that you’re gonna die in the same line and not see the irony
>tfw working toward a degree that I have no clue what I'm going to do with but I can't abort because I'm not paying for it and my current job sucks but I can leave because it give me ridiculous flexibility for my always changing college schedule but I don't wanna do any of this in the first place
>meanwhile my buddy lies his way into a company with no job experience, bullshits his way into management and makes more money in a week than I have in my entire bank account
Einstein was smart. Then he was kidnapped a bunch. When you smart people gonna wise up and learn you ain’t that smart.
Deal with customers/clients, mostly. Also standing all fucking day. Also I have two jobs.
Be older, have a lifetime of shit diets, and habits. Experience only the draining aspects of social life, and rarely the uplifting ones. The list goes on.

Bro I would've killed myself already.
