2018-09-18 17:16:38 UTC  

then i can finally be a beta bucker like i always wanted ❤

2018-09-18 17:45:07 UTC  

@Odd @MeepMeepRonin i bought a headset so i can join in

2018-09-18 17:55:49 UTC  

@Seven Of Swords how old are you?

2018-09-18 17:56:43 UTC  

2018-09-18 18:01:45 UTC  

@Seven Of Swords don't let your ego limit your job pool

2018-09-18 18:02:03 UTC  

In what sense?

2018-09-18 18:06:56 UTC  

Feeling you're too good for certain jobs if you don't have experience

2018-09-18 18:07:20 UTC  

Shotgun spread your job applications

2018-09-18 18:07:29 UTC  

Apply to everything and deal with who calls back

2018-09-18 18:08:30 UTC  

What if its not necessarily a feeling that one is too good for a position but rather that other positions are more necessary and worth my time than others? Is that necessarily egotistic, or perhaps a reality of the situation?

2018-09-18 18:08:49 UTC  

BTW, I've been applying across many different types of fields

2018-09-18 18:09:25 UTC  

You need to get paid first before you worry about the neccessity of a job for society

2018-09-18 18:09:54 UTC  

Getting paid is one thing, being paid enough to make rent is another.

2018-09-18 18:10:05 UTC  

Multiple jobs

2018-09-18 18:10:14 UTC  

Don't be picky until you can afford to be

2018-09-18 18:10:54 UTC  

Why work so many jobs when you can carefully pick one that covers the expenses of more than one?

2018-09-18 18:11:20 UTC  

I mean, I understand your argument, but to me, its just another pitiful defense of the already disgusting system.

2018-09-18 18:11:59 UTC  

I understand that you are trying to help, but again, we don't live on the same planet.

2018-09-18 18:12:12 UTC  

H³ since im 19 i work a 8 to 4 schedule and sometimes i work on the side, i turned 21 recently. Unfortunately this makes your social life suffer a bit.

2018-09-18 18:12:30 UTC  

I took a crappy security job that was dangerous and paid little and now i work an easy security job and listen to tfm and alex jones all day making almost double

2018-09-18 18:12:51 UTC  

And?

2018-09-18 18:12:54 UTC  

You need experience before you start getting picky, you aren't entitled to anything until you prove your abilities

2018-09-18 18:13:29 UTC  

I already have experience... this whole "workers aren't entitled" mindset is simply a non-sequiteur to what I am talking about...

2018-09-18 18:14:02 UTC  

I've had internships and part-time jobs

2018-09-18 18:14:10 UTC  

and a degree

2018-09-18 18:14:19 UTC  

Have you ever had a full time job

2018-09-18 18:14:33 UTC  

No... that's what I'm looking for lol

2018-09-18 18:15:34 UTC  

Again, the whole "appease the employer and it your fault if you don't" argument makes no sense.... I have no control over if I get hired or not. The best that I can do is show up to interviews, dress nice and have my resume prepared.

2018-09-18 18:15:49 UTC  

If I don't get hired, its the employer that decides that, not me.

2018-09-18 18:16:10 UTC  

If you want an easy full time job go networking

2018-09-18 18:16:31 UTC  

Don't put all your eggs in one basket and don't ever depend on one employer. Always have options

2018-09-18 18:16:37 UTC  

Options = power

2018-09-18 18:16:48 UTC  

That's not the argument my dude.

2018-09-18 18:17:45 UTC  

My issue is with the very system that makes people have to choose someone to exploit them, not necessarily that a worker needs to keep options open to be exploited.

2018-09-18 18:17:58 UTC  

Again, we have different ideas of what "power" is...

2018-09-18 18:18:23 UTC  

Sorry bro I'm teaching rn. Just wanted to give my two cents. If you're operating from a defeatist perspective then you'll always be disappointed. If you don't like the system of work then spend some time in a homeless shelter and reflect on your work ethic

2018-09-18 18:19:46 UTC  

Have fun with your non-sequiturs and outdated boomer arguments then. Again, until you understand how it is that people have constructed work, we will never understand each other.

2018-09-18 18:20:34 UTC  

And besides, all of my eggs are literally not in one basket because I've applied across many different fields.

2018-09-18 18:26:58 UTC  

And by the way, an insurance company did want to hire me, but its commission only, given my concern with the ability to live off of commission. And now I have another interview tomorrow that can hopefully provide more stability than relying on commission.
