It's not bad even if you have moderate student debt.

Treat social interaction like a skill that can be worked on (because it is). Drop the mindset that you're always going to be "weird" and start paying attention to social cues. You are always going to be weird but you can convince people that you aren't.
And as a bonus on your time off you can be as fucking weird as you want.
You may be an autist but that doesn't mean that you can't reduce the social damage of autism and present yourself as a normie when it matters.

I could easily make a few dollars more if I wasn't at an independent business. Honestly, as many intelligent and talented friends as I have, most people around here consider you lucky to have a decent gig a few dollars above minimum without getting into massive fucking debt through college.
I know plenty of dumbfucks who simply came from families that make more money and scored cushy jobs making much more (without much skill, insight, or intelligence required) without really having to go out and find them or work for them.
I know people who work jobs doing things where I have more skill than they do, but they just happened to know somebody who could get them in, whereas I'm antisocial as fuck and don't know many people anymore. Hell, I had to know someone just to get the job I have now because most pharmacies aren't interested in techs without experience. The benefit is that I don't get drug tested and have good hours.

It's commonplace in fine dining in major metropolitan areas. I wouldn't serve in a highway town and I wouldn't serve at a TGI Fridays (I'd bartend though).
Think about it. Other lazy servers want to get cut. I take over their section which is mostly two tops (2 person tables). So that server leaves, a two top walks in. It's a rich dude with his date. It's a wine restaurant and we have rich clientele. I sell this guy a $150 bottle of wine. If he's a shitty tipper, 10%, I just made 15 bucks off one of the products off one of the like 4 tables I'm gonna have the rest of the night. Since I provide good service and am getting this guy laid, he tips 20%. All I did was sell him a bottle and opened it, and I just got 30 bucks.
Servers are lazy bratsand don't think about it like this. That's why I make a lot of money. Work ethic + job with alcohol = money.

>Want a better job, want an education to qualify for a better job, can't get either because I either can't find the time between caring for my family or the job market is so fucking dried up it's disgusting.
Seriously, the only reason I even got this job is because my dad knew a guy, if that didn't happen I wouldn't have a job, period; and I'm considered lucky because everyone around me is running off unemployment, medicare, and food stamps.
Can't even afford to move to a place that HAS a better job market.
>>79652005
>Granted my rent is like a thousand per month
I used to pay $1000 a month and only made $9.50 per hour cooking.

I did valet for a few yrs and it was just parking cars.
How do you get your clients? Do you just arrive with a vacuum, some leatherique, and a bucket and do your thing?
>>79651794
It's true. I have to explain the menu at least 80% of the time.
You also have no idea what wine to pair with the food your making. You would have so many more refires if not for all the times I convinced people to keep what they have. Every fucking ticket would be sub this, sub that if I didn't convince them to order it the way the chef intended. We wouldn't be as profitable if I didn't upsell product we have to get rid of asap. Also, robot customer service (my job) is shit. Robot manual labor (your job) has wiped out entire workforces. If a robot is replacing anyone, it's you.

If being a cook were such a high-skill, high-value position, the demand for goid cooks would drive wages up. You have an overinflated sense of worth.
>>79648818

>>79652208
It involves buying stuff like pink sheen, Demon shine, High pressure washer, water tank to store in the van, getting leaflets, cards, handing them out in the pub and leaving them in shops and signing the side of your van, I always wanted to be a mechanic but college fucked me over twice.
>>79647010
that's not that bad unless you live somewhere expensive.
I make $16 supervising at a Krispy Kreme. Too bad I blow all my money on junk food and weed YOLO
>>79647940
Whats your net income, Sven?
>>79649526
Minimum wage feels like such a meme to anyone who worked before that. Currently got a side job as a translator for a small e-commerce business where I make 10€/h, which is insane since I've made maybe half of that when working as an IT-specialist. Salaries suck in East Germany.
>>79652263
Not the chef you're talking about but I just want to point out that cooking isn't plain manual labor. Robots definitely can't cook like a person and id argue they won't for a long time.
You are right tho, chefs think they're all that and don't understand what it's like to sell shit to stupid customers

i am 21 and i make 12 dollars an hour as a pharmacy tech. I live with a roomate

That doesn't sound bad. Do you live in a winter climate? Where you have to clean salt and grime from carpets often? How'd college fuck you?
>>79650938
naw I work 10h shifts 4 days a week, and my position isn't in a star restaurant or something.
pay is shitty tho, I want to get into trading or just buy-reselling stuff to make something extra
But being a wage-slave doesn't allow you to invest, it's how the rich keep their buisness(as I see it)
>>79650811
I'd say that's pretty good. Maybe a little low for starting a family on, or if you're living in a high cost area, but still quite nice.
>>79649147
Let me give you a piece of advice my father gave me:
No matter what, a man has got to have a place to stand.
In other words regardless of whether the markets go up or down, at the end of the day a person has to live somewhere. This makes land a very valuable investment as its a finite resource
However a word of warning: Restoration projects are never so simple they almost always cost more than you think and can be very dangerous traps that can cost you thousands of dollars and worse yet years of your time
Be very careful when deciding whether to purchase a building that needs work they can be rather risky investments but on the bright side more risk also tends to come more reward,( if your smart and know what you're doing).

Your job is to:
>Listen/write something down
>Relay information to cooks
>Bring out drinks/food
>Check back with the customer to make sure everything is ok
Let us not forget the wage gap between waiters and waitresses. If you're a woman you will get better tips for the same service a male could provide.

very true, someone who does it for a living, not for a summer job is much, MUCH more appreciated than latter.
Dutch contract constructions fucks you over, since there are no long-term contracts to be had, the law dictates you have to get a permanent contract after max 3 temps or 2 years, so you get 'let go'after 2 yuears and you can start over, it's really fucked and is breaking the industry as we speak, Its incredibly demotivating to know that whatever you do, or however your performance is, the fat-cat investor at the top hust says 'nope just hire a new guy"

Not right now but when winter hits it hits pretty bad in London especially when you barely weigh 9 stone and are 6'2.. It hardly snows though,
And well, Ever since I have been able to remember I have had a pure fucking cocaine fueled passion for cars but long story short. I was a prick of a kid from "high school" when I got to my first college they lost 4 units of my work and so I got kicked out. Next I went to a different college I was in a class with knuckleheads and niggers and ended up in a fight because they would bully nearly all of my class and mouth of to teachers. I was the one who got fucked in the end for it.
>>79647010
Count yourself as lucky. 15 an hour in retail, family, health, and just plain shit luck has kept me in a hole. I pretty much got whats in my bank account and that's it. hard to do school when they wont adjust your schedule. Cutting hours means can't pay bills and pay for meds. nearly lost job several times getting them to accommodate health issues.
Family treats me like a roomate that they try to gas light if I bother interacting with them. No real friends because you can't trust practically anyone and my opinions and honesty drive normies away.
Ask myself every day why I don't just live off disability innawoods when i qualify for it and im loathed either way. older than i care to admit.

I just worked at assembly line this Friday, for 4$/hour. Needed a few part time jobs before the next full time job starting next week.
It sucked so hard. It was like divine judgement. I did lots of bad work younger, eventually learning to aim for heavy labor because they usually let you rest up and have some variation, but two days ago I wanted to die. Already forgot how much that sucked, and the fact that most of the population in this country does that kind of a thing for a living. Really puts social issues into perspective.
Two more days of it later, too. God protect my soul.

Comes out to 52k a year at the normal 40 hour work week. Unlimited OT though, currently on pace to make close to 70k.
