Got up the next morning, back to work

2018-10-16 22:01:19 UTC  

No experience or education above high school required, pays above min wage. Might be hard to get if there is no slots open, and it's a bit mind numbing as it's mostly counting pills

2018-10-16 22:01:22 UTC  

Now imagine doing that but being paid 7.50 an hour

2018-10-16 22:01:27 UTC  

@Coochie coo He doesn't work, his mother pays his way.

2018-10-16 22:01:49 UTC  

Dude, I live in the fucking desert and I manage to find jobs.

2018-10-16 22:01:52 UTC  

You deffiantly can.

Nothing is here other than military bases and such.

2018-10-16 22:02:20 UTC  

The last time I sent out applications I got zero response. There was not an interview involved.

2018-10-16 22:02:30 UTC  

They were entry level.

2018-10-16 22:02:31 UTC  

Keep trying.

2018-10-16 22:02:33 UTC  

How many applications?

2018-10-16 22:02:35 UTC  

No.

2018-10-16 22:02:38 UTC  

You will get rejected.

2018-10-16 22:02:42 UTC  

After awhile you're just done.

2018-10-16 22:02:46 UTC  

A year and a half of that with no OT will get you about 20k after transit expenses at 7.5 m8

2018-10-16 22:02:53 UTC  

You don't have that option to just give up.

2018-10-16 22:02:54 UTC  

I'm an experienced professional, and I've been rejected like... 400 times this year.

2018-10-16 22:03:01 UTC  

Which you then use to get training to get a better job

2018-10-16 22:03:11 UTC  

Everyone gets rejected constantly.

2018-10-16 22:03:17 UTC  

You don't just stop trying because you got rejected.

2018-10-16 22:03:27 UTC  

And if your art starts up on the side that accelerates the process

2018-10-16 22:03:30 UTC  

You only need to be accepted once to get a job.

2018-10-16 22:03:41 UTC  

It's not going to start up on the side.

2018-10-16 22:04:06 UTC  

I'm not going after commissions anymore, it's a shitshow. I'm going to complete a game or nothing happens at all.

2018-10-16 22:04:11 UTC  

...

2018-10-16 22:04:35 UTC  

:oroborous: would be nice

2018-10-16 22:04:44 UTC  

Work part time then. Low number of shifts

2018-10-16 22:04:49 UTC

> will complete game or nothing else in life

2018-10-16 22:05:10 UTC  

You don't follow the whole "It's too distracting to the art" bit

2018-10-16 22:05:13 UTC  

Patches a hole in your resume
Gets you some income
Gets you out of the house more
You meet more people

2018-10-16 22:05:24 UTC  

It's not like exercise where you release endorphins and feel better and more confident after doing it.

2018-10-16 22:05:38 UTC  

Working a part time job, and then intending to do art after you get home, only ever works on paper.

2018-10-16 22:05:40 UTC  

It's actually exactly like that.

2018-10-16 22:05:42 UTC  

You get home, and you're a husk.

2018-10-16 22:05:55 UTC  

and also like that sometimes, lol.

2018-10-16 22:05:56 UTC  

Just yiff

2018-10-16 22:05:59 UTC  

Whoever that is, I still don't read these.

2018-10-16 22:06:01 UTC  

Stop replying.

2018-10-16 22:06:11 UTC
