How do you earn your living /fit/?
Chef here and I'm looking for a change of jobs, the hours suck and I am working for long periods without a meal....
What are some jobs which compliment the /fit/ lifestyle?
NEET
Construction worker
Male Stripper
Model
Porn actor
I'm a 37 year old chef at Wendy's
AMA
Learn a trade or become technical management for a mix of site and office work
I used to be a chef, now I'm a biochemist. Pay and hours are about the same, education is $$$, but at least people are impressed.
You're a chef but you never thought to make your own lunch? Also just get better hours.
>>36655566
Grad student planning to be a math professor. Plenty of time to lift and get to spend time with smart people.
Plus it makes me look less spergy in comparison to the many superspergs in the department
Merchandiser for a large soda company. Looking for a job as a welder currently
journalist
I worked as a manager if crown lands for a couple of years. About half office work and half driving trucks and quads and snowmobiles into the wilderness and hiking and checking out properties and potential land to sell and develop for cottage subdivisions, stuff like that. It was a pretty sweet job, decent pay, fun, easygoing, etc.
I just got laid off two weeks ago so now I'm a neet. Don't really know what I'm qualified to do besides that job and maybe like a park ranger or something, thinking about going back to school.
>>36655584
Don't get breaks and almost any chef job going is long unsociable hours
>>36655533
I'm a warehouse manager. Started from the bottom just doing as I was told, and because I outperformed everyone due to lifting, 3 years later I am in charge and sell my special home made non fda approved pre-workout drinks to the employees every day. 5 bucks per serving so I'm making extra money while also improving the warehouses productivity because everyones pumped up all the time.
CMON!
Seriously though. Warehouses are awesome for /fit/izens. No customer service required so you can even thrive if you are severely autistic. All you need to do is be able to count and lift stuff all day.
>>36655533
I basically geht paid to deadlift washingmachines and dishwashers and carry them around. Pretty good.

its pretty fun
>>36655820
Any advice on how to get my foot in the door with an English degree and no experience?
EMT so I get to lift fat ass patients all day. Electric cot helps a little bit but the biggest fuckers are always on the 2nd floor.
I'm a security officer but I'm without a doubt the least muscular person in the whole thread.
I'm a project manager, I basically get to babysit people all day and make sure they get everything done using a combination of stick and carrot. Sometimes outright ass chewings. It helps that I was in the infantry, as the job is basically being a section leader.
>>36655533
My wife and I quit our jobs to run and in home daycare after my daughter was born. We scrape by, but I hardly leave my house unless I want to, and I can go to the gym whenever I want.
>>36655836
Not the guy you are responding to but it highly depends on the area you want to go in to. First I would figure out what area you like best (brand, advertising, social media, demographic analytics, etc.). Marketing is huge and there are so many things you can do with it. I would at least try and get an associate's or see if you have any contacts that can get you a job or internship as a marketing assistant or intern without any normal qualifications.

How do I into porn?
I'm a professional dog walker and it pays better than any jobs relevant to my college major so I think I'll stick with it for awhile. Plus all that walking helps with cutting.
>>36655876
How do I get into this and what are the hours like?
Work at an investment firm. Can eat when ever I want to and get an hour lunch. Fits my schedule pretty well.
>>36655998
Plz tell me how to be a prof dog walker.
>>36655836
Get Adwords and Analytics certified. Find some small companies and ask them to give you BS referrals for 50 bucks. Learn Agile Project Management on Youtube.
Congrats, you're 100% more hireable than most dipshits we hire.
Work room service at a ski resort, make ~$20 an hour and get free food whenever I want. Skiing too much killed my winter bulk though
>>36656057
look up "dog walker" or "dog walking" in google and see if there are any companies in your area; reach out to them and ask if they're hiring. Pretty much the only requirements are being comfortable around dogs and reliable.
You can also make an account on care.com and other similar sites and sort of run your own schedule, but I've found it's a lot better and safer to go through a company because most of them will have you bonded/insured so your ass is covered if anything goes wrong.
Personally, I made an account on care.com and had two companies reach out to me after having found my information on there, but I think that's mostly because there were suddenly a lot of vacancies in my city all at once so your mileage with that may vary.
>>36655967
>How do I into porn?
Take some viagra and film yourself fucking someone. If you can't get anyone you know to agree to it just hire a prostitute.
Don't worry about camera angles. They just want to see that you have a big dick and can control when you shoot your load.
Send it away with your height, dick length and a list of things you're OK with doing/not OK with doing.
If you end up getting an interview with one of them, don't agree to being paid an amount per sale. Make sure you are getting paid per video produced.
I did it 3 times. Only got paid for one of the performances though because the other two I couldn't produce the cum shot due to the camera man staring at me and signaling at me what to do next.
>>36655533
I just got a supervisor job at a supplement store (not gnc, funk those guys). The hiring process was a little grueling with 3 interviews a background and drug test but worth it. I also have a part time job with a mid level designer brand. Not the most money, but I'm hoping to get my own store within a year, they're already talking about trying to get me a an assistant manager after my training and I'll get a raise after my training is complete. I get discounts on all my supps and my clothes, I can take 10 minute breaks to eat, plus my lunch break at both jobs. I only have 4000 dollars left to pay on my student loan from the bank. In a few months I'll be on top of the world. I really want to start coaching/training for a side business. I know I'm not a millionaire, but I think I'll be happy with this for awhile. I never work past 10pm, so I still go, but don't drink cause I'm cutting. Life's okay man
>>36656022
When on an interview don't talk about how strong you are and how much you lift but rather how smart you smart you are and how capable you are to prevent issues.
Instead of being intimidating and mean try to look focus and calm. Nobody wants somebody who loses their shit costing them more money.
The hours depend on your employeer.
>>36656112
Thanks that's solid advice, is it always night shifts or can you get work doing more normal hours? I'm thinking of getting SIA and first aid certificates then applying?
Student most of the year
Summers I work construction 4 days a week and I'm a live sound engineer on weekends
Construction is better for a /fit/ lifestyle, but being /fit/ is advantageous to my sound work too
>dat 28 oz hammer
>dem 200 pound speaker cabinets
>tfw no lift platform on the truck so we have to push everything up a fucking ramp
>>36656108
Thanks!
>>36656160
Fuck that ramp shit. I moved furniture for a hotel and the snow made the ramp dangerous without slip resistant shoes
I work as a dockmaster at a local marina. I spend about 8 hours per day moving boats around, helping people get out on their boats, and lounging out in the sun.
It's pretty fucking awesome actually. The only thing that sucks is that I can't leave for break but I do bring enough food to last me for the day.
Paramedic and it's a shitty career and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
>>36656208
My boss is broke and hasn't replaced the ramp in years, so it's fairly slippery at all times. Haven't had the misfortune of winter loadouts at least
He rented a truck once that had a lift on the back; best gig ever
>>36655594
NERD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>36656143
You can work normal hours, usually hotels facilitate this but night shifts pay more and less people to deal with really.
Although most times its not a must that you have them is better to be prepared, it shows the employeer that you're serious about it and will have advantages over people who wait to get hired to get the certificates.

I am a prep cook at a retirement home. My chef has really good hours 8-4 and has a salary and benefits. In fact, everyone in our kitchen gets benefits including the dishwashers.
Maybe keep an eye out for other opportunities besides restaurants and hotels?
Im a UK neighbourhood cop
cardio gains and fat burning from walking ridiculous amounts of miles per day carrying vest + equipment. Also back to the officer for dat der prepped meal. Finish shift and into the gym in the station basement.
Bretty good.
Only downsides is most of the people i speak to hate me, risk of getting knifed everyday, and if i end up with an arrest - i'll be lucky if i get time for drink/food.
>>36656535
>risk of getting knifed everyday
Statistically speaking, you are more at risk of being a civilian getting knifed at random than being knifed while on duty as a police officer in the UK.
Don't lie. You get paid to walk around talking to a female all day long because of dat dere male:female cop ratio.
>>36655575
what exactly is technical management?
I'm a software dev. It's pretty nice sitting on my ass all day after a hard workout. Sucks during a cut though. I end up stressing all day about how I'm going to find time to get in some cardio. It doesn't help that my customer is 15 hours off of my time zone right now. Their day starts as I get off, so if I need to communicate with them, it can push my meetings out until 8pm or so. Thank gawd for 24 hour gyms.
I'm an English teacher.
>>36656577
But as stated, im still at risk.
Also you dont know my neighbourhood, and the anti police nominals (who have pulled knives out on me).
Also, i patrol on my own... but please tell me more about how you know my job better than me.
Commercial diver. Often have to move heavy machinery, rocks or other stuff so lifting helps. So does cardio when you have to swim somewhere first.

Junior civil servant / diplomat
I'm a case manager at a wet homeless shelter. The hours are a pain in the ass but they feed me very well. All states/countries are different, but the homeless here eat better than most.
Bike courier. You're gonna get that sweet, sweet cardio this way.
>>36655533
Civil Servant with the Military.
I spend most my days researching ways of to pretend to the public we aren't all going to die in a nuclear war.
>>36656022
Depends on the state that you live in. You might want to get some certifications, so you have an advantage.
Hours can vary though. If you do private security, you'll be working weekends, nights, holidays for a while. You could also look for a campus security where there's less of a chance of working those kinds of hours.

I get to lift kegs and other heavy shit for my work. It was really fun when I started lifting because I got stronger and the kegs started feeling lighter and lighter
Commercial photography industry. Start as a PA and work your way up to assisting or production. Assisting you get to travel around the world plenty, and get to lift shift a lot of the times too.

In a lot of ways it's great because I work 24 on/48 off so those 2 off I dedicate pretty much entirely to lifting.
On the other hand it's shitty because every third day I'm gonna get about 3-5 hours of sleep depending on the night and it's going to be broken up into intervals and the sleeping environment is just shit in general.
>mfw this guy at my gym bitches about 7 hours of sleep
Also it's difficult to cut because of the meals we eat at the station kek

Everyone I work with is overweight from stress eating and works crazy long hours.
I barely squeeze in gym time before I have to go to bed.

I did dog walking for 4 years and now I work at a clinic as a vet tech.
Aside from being able to just walk dogs, you should also dog sit, which I am currently doing for a client, it adds extra pay, give meds/injections and this last one isn't necessary but be able to give cpr as it comes in handy and gives owners a sigh of relief knowing if anything goes wrong you can handle yourself.

I own three houses and rent 2 out. The right thing to do is probably to expand and make it into an actual business but also just renting out the house I live in and hostel hoping around the world sounds neat. Pay my brother like 20% to do occasional landlord stuff like replacing a water heater or whatever pops up while I'm gone.

aerial photos pilot.
its not too bad. i do a lot of ground stuff so theres a lot of walking. some flights can get long where im sitting like 3 hours there and back but i can bring all the proton snacks i want so theres at least that.
only trouble is its low altitude where there are things to collide with. i'll probably end up dead eventually. worst part is the ntsb is gonna find thc in my system and put that in the report so all the people in my field/network will know i indulge. though i guess it probably wont matter once weed is legal.

anon I really can't tell if you're trying to troll me or if you're really just retarded. Either way this is the last time I'll respond as it's clear that we won't have a useful conversation.
Munkres is indeed an undergrad text, though useful. I am a grad student and learned from it several years ago. I haven't decided on a research topic yet, but I will do something algebraic topology/homotopy theory related.
Homotopy theory is a big subject and is much more in depth than the fundamental group business you'll find in munkres. If you'd want to learn something read about this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivariant_cohomology I took a class on it last year.
I work for a company in a very specialized IT field. After a few years here I'll be able to live anywhere and do consulting for 100-120/hr (lots of travel). Once I'm ready to settle down, I'll do salaried work again for a consulting customer. Or finally go back to school.
Really, I just want to make enough to live modestly and retire early. I'm going to prioritize family when it comes to that, especially if my wife works.
>>36655917

>throwing general buzzwords around

Undergrad confirmed.
How about this: link a paper' that you've read during the past year and give a brief summary on it (why it's useful/interesting, say). It's fine to use non category theory technical jargon.

It's changed in America too, cost of living is too high.
I don't know any 18 year olds who are financially independent, either they live at home and work (smart) or they are living on a college campus blowing thousands of dollars paying for a meal plan and getting trashed 4x a week (dumb).
My parents are pretty cool about it though, I have to take out loans to pay for classes but they're fine with me living at home until I either 1. Get a job that requires me to move or 2. Get a job in town and stay home to pay off my loans.
>>36664955
> how butthurt can you be
I went to an expensive college, stayed on campus, did reasonably well in studies, got a great job in my field and paid my loans off.
As long as you don't pick a fluff major like English or Fender studies, there's nothing dumb about it. It's just guided skill gaining.
>>36664885
how did you get into this field?
>>36663326
Yeah it's at a college in the UK. Less glamorous as it sounds as I'm new so I've been put on Foundation gcse (what you sit at the end of normal school if you are stupid). Been offered some Higher for next year though. Will be nice to have a group that is actually capable of thought.

Probably not the colloquial "college" used in NA, right?
God save the Queen
>>36665862
Urrr I don't think so. You can usually only go to college after finishing secondary (high) school at 16. Most of my learners are 16-18s who didn't do well enough in thier gcse at the end of school and are now having to retake it as part of whatever other course they are doing.
Typically if you are smart you go to a sixth form for a-levels and then university at 18.

Yeah that's a better way of putting it. It's actually a nice gig apart from the basic level i'm teaching at. Everyone is at least 16 so typically more mature. I only teach that one thing so only one lesson plan a week. Barely any marking as no coursework.
Generally colleges are much more chill compared to working in schools as no one gives a fuck about adult education except for uni. The pay is slightly less than a schoolteachers but there is so much less hassle it makes it worth it.

I started on the boats when I was young (16) and just managed to get my tickets on my trips off. Back then I was doing 6 week trips. Find an institute that allows you to get your class 6 and 5 and then going for your class 4 and 3 you get while doing job experience with bits of study here and there. Then just work your way forward. It takes a long time but it's definitely worth it to know your making bank
You lose a lot of friends and you have to be smart with your money. Everything is free while off shore but I've seen people blow ALOT of money when we dock. Most of them can't even function on land anymore

How much do you earn as a biochemist? Thinking of studying it myself, but I'll have to wait an extra year with uni to wrap up some required courses.
I go to school and make sandwiches i sell every day.
The bakery 100 meters from my apartment sell all bread they haven't sold that day for 50-75% cheaper if you come after 20:00. I i usually go down every night and buy everything that's left. Usually around 10-20 baguettes and 20 french sourdough loafs. Then i cut them into thirds and make sandwiches with uneven cut of meat that the butcher can't sell at normal prices (costs about 7 dollars a pound for roast beef, ham etc.) then i make ham/cheese/roastbeef/chicken/meatball etc sandwiches with different topping depending on whats cheap that week. takes around 2hours everyday, and since my only school cafeteria charge 10 bucks for shit sandwiches i can sell all of them for 5 bucks on my 1 hour lunch break (all student at my uni have lunch at the same time) and i always sit at the same place everyday doing homework while making around 400 dollars of profit a day that i don't tax for 2 hours work. Been doing it since January, but i'll probably get caught soon since it's getting too popular and now i usually run out before everyone who want one gets it.

I enjoy being in the military. I essentially get to be a neet, but I get paid to do it and I get way more bennies than a neet does.

I cannot pin point to moment that I became interested. But as I have said a like watching plants and animals grow and develop.
Growing vegetables is certainly a start. If that's what you like you could go into horticulture. There is still a modest living available in market gardening if you are savvy. in

Financial Manager at Audi, job essentially consists of setting up payment plan and interest rate on cars people were just sold by the Sales Reps. I make a flat rate which comes out to about 30K a year plus I make commission off each sale so that ups it to 90K~. Best year I made 237~ gross. Worst year I made like 40K. Only requirement to get the job was be a good sales rep, which I was and wait for the position to open up. Been doing it three years now turning 25 soon. Also I get to travel for sales conferences which is fuggin sick, really makes me feel like a big boy in my suit. Hours are good so plenty of time to lift.

Depends. You have to like pure coding if you're into that.
Logical constructs made of syntax that you have to learn. A new language, kinda.
Operators and such.
Or you could be like me and be more of a designer/developer. I make logo's, websites and applications. Good money, but it takes skill, imagination and practice. Or yopu could become a shitty wordpress developer, even though personally I hate those people with a fiery passion for shitting up the internet and the market.

You don't really need a degree to work in IT unless you're talking about coding in which case at least an associates and some luck.
In order to work IT all you need is some certs and a bit of experience. I got hired at a call center doing tech support for ISPs. Pay wasn't great but as soon as I had a year in it companies were all on my jock.
>>36672699
Theyre part of the engineering courses in my country so we get all those maths courses.. even if its unnecessary. Kinda like weedout courses for people to fail over and over
>>36661194
where?
>>36672785
Calc isn't really that hard if you know how to study.
I failed calc twice before I finally learned how to fucking study math then I got A's in calc 1-3 and linear algebra. You just have to work for it.

I live in a HUGE agricultural city.
There's lots of farmers.
And they are Fucking LOADED with cash.
Some of them just had land and farms passed down the generations and bought new land for more farms.
It will get to the point where you don't even have to get your hands dirty.
You pay others to manage your farm and they worry about hiring the mexicans during harvest.
My friends dad is a farmer and he doesn't do shit except look for more land to expand on.
Every generation gets richer than the last and soon all the land will be my friend's, then he's going to do what his dad does, buy more land, live large, and make sure his offspring lives better than himself.
It's crazy to watch

In UK, it could mean working for a house developers technical department. You liaise with the consultants, local authorities and site to get everything in place to proceed with construction. It's basically getting paid to chase people and reduce costs so the houses can be built asap for cheap.

I feel for you man, I used to work at a upper-class pizza restaurant with bullshit "authentic" Italian sourced ingredents.
You were lucky to ever have a proper break, I was required to forfeit it if the place got too busy and it was always goddamn busy. Quickly learned to hide leftover pizza and eat it lightning fast while the manager wasn't looking.
Quit because the owner went full skeleton staffing and I was being roughly fucked in the ass for not enough pay. Used to close up at 11PM and leave at 3AM because I was the only one cleaning and the manager was some uptight cunt who never wanted to get her dress dirty.

My workplace is pretty sedentary being all about the white collar cubicle life. The good thing is my work pays for gym membership and that got me started.
Are you in oil and gas?
>>36676766
Thanks. It took me 1.5 years after graduating from a fairly decent school to land this job. You'll make it too my man. Sometimes it just takes time to get there, so have patience.

We do 24s, but they're spaced over a 4 week cycle so we get a 5 day block off and a 7 day block off.
Agreed the sleep is shit tho.
The best job for getting /fit/ is one that isn't too stressful but requires almost no physical exertion, so you can more easily recover from lifting.

you a proper PC or a CSO? About to start my training as a PC and im curious as to how interesting the day to day actually is

literally just stocking shelves all day with a shitty boss, pretty much the most asocial shit ever.
I really hate it and want to just go back to working in a restaurant or something, be able to speak with people, my coworkers, not being a fucking slave stocking shit 100% of the time.
But I need the money, they pay better and I really need the dough for now.
fuck I hate life, I wish I hadn't moved to the city.
