Only reason I can pay out of pocket is their roof

Which is misery but bearable considering my area's lowest rent is basically my whole quarterly tuition

Lmao why would your folks want you to have a petty low paying, low qualfication work that seems to be exploitation for homeless people?

Because they're 40 year old boomers who don't quite understand the job market

There are two job markets

There is the job market for failed people who desperately need a handful of dollars in their 40s, so having wasted their lives they only have these jobs available

Then thereis the job market for those who have actually developed skills/knowledge

Having the first while studying is hugely detrimental

So tell those boomers that you are focusing on your studies instead of being a mediocre idiot who sacrifices his future for being a wageslave in some department store

My dad worked his ass off and went places blue collar, he's a janitor now but blames himself and doesn't realize that's a product of the job market rejecting anyone without the paper that says you know things, my mom hadn't had a job in 20 years till she started working as a high school TA a couple years ago, so they still think if you're honest and hardworking that means literally anything in the corporate world

Being hardworking right now for you is finishing your studies with the highest possible grade

I wish

Basically unless I'm also piling on some kind of body-breaking labor school is nothing, because I was smart as a kid so they think I'm some 12000 IQ genius

At least with my last job I was happy busting my ass

This is miserable though, nobody ahould ever work in a place where you can go in at 11 AM and not realize you've hit 11 PM till the doors are shutting behind you

Lmau wut? You should have a contract that says exactly the time you have to work

Yeah, I have a schedule, but there are no windows and the light stays the same, and I work in the middle of the store. There is no visual difference between 9 AM and 10 PM

In the tedium it's easy to dissociate and lose a few hours

Dude

Do you know what a clock is?

And an alarm

Moving to offtopic

pray for my friend whose wife just left him and their two kids to be with another dude

Please pray for my grandfather he suffered a heart attack this evening and is hospitalized. And pray for my grandmother as she is in hysterics. Our family is gathered at their home trying to comfort her. We do not know what to expect. Thank you for any good well wishes you can spare at this time for our family.

There's some massive thunderstorms comin in because of a hurricane but it's possible it may cause a tornado to form up in my area. Let's pray if don't happen 🙏

@JoeyJoestar1337 There's a hurricane?!

I didn't know >.<

Yeppers, It's gonna hit this weekend.

Heck

No wonder there has been thunderstorms

Friend just said most likely gonna hit new Orleans but the winds may still make a tornado

Big F

hey so I know I'm new here but some really awful stuff is going on in my life so please please pray for a private intention. it's really urgent. thank you all

Pray for me Im having a mental breakdown at work from counting money and money not adding up. Im not a thieve but this looks bad for me.

Our prayers have been answered! We just received word that we've finally been approved for a house rental in Canada's ridiculous rental system. We're getting the keys tonight. I also promised God that I'd study His Word today, so I'll be doing that in praise of Him for His help in this. Thank you all.

We're moving to Hamilton, ON, and it can be quite rough in some areas, but we somehow were approved for a nice place in a nice neighbourhood

So this is a bit of a long prayer request as there’s a story attached but I think it’s important to bring this to light and that we all pray for this poor man and what he’s suffering
