Workplace shit is a game in of itself too. If you learn how to play it, you can move up pretty far

But we know what gaming entails...being an Alpha at work and learning how to navigate politics.

Also becoming a good leader

The fastest way to become unfireable is to do the jobs nobody wants to do and work the shifts nobody wants to work

Anything after that is bonus points

A lot of those jobs are unskilled labor. Back breaking work for low pay

It could be projects too, coding something that people complain is too boring

Would that require college?

Just an example

true

I worked in an office and I was allowed to carry my folding knife on me cuz I was the only one who opened packages and cut the ties on the printer paper boxes

@ToastMcGhost i think you should do the job you like otherwise you won’t last don’t you think?

That's what I'm working on...I've job hopped way to many times

I just get fed up at a certain point

I don't have a degree either

Yes do the job you want to do. But let's say they ask someone to pick up trash in the loading dock. Just do it, you get paid the same for easy shit

That's a no brainer though

True

simple shit like that. Taking out the trash because no one would do it is no problem

I've been in the workforce for 13 years. Labor, offices, military, you name it. It's all the same

Thnx for your service sir

Thanks man. I did it for those who couldn't

Thank you. I appreciate what you guys do

I've had managers mad at me when I turned in my two weeks because the younger guys complained and said "it's not my job" or "that's not what I get paid for"

Saying that makes you pompous and puts a target on your back

I like doing other shit because it gives me a mental break from the boring repetitive job I've been doing for so long

^ this

Plus I like to move around

I get restless if I sit still for too long

Data entry would kill you xD

I could do data entry for a little while, until I burn out on it

My future looks like Either Electronics technician or Warehouse/forklift operator

For Electronics, I need to go to school

Forklift operators are almost unfireable by default and some places train for free

I have forklift experience too

You should start at at *least* $16/hr if in N America

Even if it's just to pay for electronics school

Yea, some pay $20 per hour

that's okay money, nothing special

Just enough to get by, really

I made $11/hr and made enough to finance a new car. It depends on what your money goes to
