Things
I want more stimulas package!
I want to go back to work. I used to work my tail off, and when I came home I was dog tired, but I knew I'd given it my all.
Well why don’t you just go work up 5 trillion dollars and hand us all a massive stimulus check. Jk lol. I havent really thought a wholw lot about it. I have a really good job by some people’s standard (I’m a chem. Engineer) so i haven’t really worried about it. That’s just me though
Sitting at home with no schedule eats at you.
So I saved up a bunch of money to buy a vepr 12 and now everywhere is sold out of em
oh yeah.
(Well, it does *me*, at least...)
i can relate imajica. youre not alone.
i wish i could get a decent job that didnt fuck me up. i really dont care about making tons of money, you know? just something i can do that doesnt make me want to shoot myself. theres not a lot of opportunity for that sort of thing near me. not having a car makes it harder as well.
Hell, I'd do charity work if I could. At least I wouldn't feel useless.
@Wardog. Depending on the area you live in, there could be great jobs. I work at a refinery and it’s a pretty stable job. I know there are lots of them in the US. That’s really the only stable, good paying job I’ve had. The only thing i can relate to
yeah, i just have issues that make holding a stable job difficult. trying to fix my situation, but it really isnt easy.
I haven’t lived in the real world for a very long time, so i have 0 advice lol.
i havent either if im honest.
"The Real World!: A nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there..."
@Wardog Maybe you could try making a police or military career, if you are still young enough. They both have decent retirement and will definitely help to get a better job. That’s the only thing i could think of to fully straighten you out and get you on a path to success. It’s typically 20 years, but hey, it’s something. @DishonoredRonin so true lol. It’s not fun
You could always learn to code. There are a decent amount of free programs that teach you at least the basics.
I mention that also because you can usually work from home or for yourself if you're coding
i tried to get into a military career straight out of high school. obviously didnt end well. at this point i wouldnt even be able to qualify for that anymore. my personality would severely conflict with trying to be in law enforcement as well... especially with all the shit going on.
@mikeflarkin. The online world is also pretty goo because no one can judge you for your mistake or what you’ve done.
I feel really bad for the friends and family members I have that are police officers
I live in a small town, so it’s actually pretty good here. I can’t say the same for others though
me too. i support police, and i definitely think we need them, but sometimes i wish all police officcers would just quit so they wouldnt be subject to such horrible treatment, and also punishment for simply doing their jobs.
@Wardog. That’s part of it, like it or not. That’s the real world, sadly
It wasn't always though
True
yeah. which why i wish i could do that job, but i wouldnt be able too, which makes me respect them even more.
I hate all my bosses so I would prefer to work for myself in a perfect world... But I sort of hate that guy.too
Corrections officers make a decent amount of money, and it's similar to law enforcement
"God my boss sucks." - me on my first day working for myself.
lmao
...1 PM? I need to eat.
@mikeflarkin. Yeah, my mom, uncle, and nana were all correction officers and also have a retirment good too. Idk, just suggestions
You also can't use the "I wish I could, but I can't, I have to work" excuse to get out of awkward family gatherings.
LMAO
i dont have any family anymore, and they havent invited me to a family gathering for years. even when i was still part of it.
@Wardog. Oof, sorry for that
I love/hate our family gatherings
i never liked them if im honest.
