I personally enjoy the lifestyle, I got five years of education plus most of the important certs (CCNA, CCNP, Unix) so I'll have a good foot in the door when I want to get out.
I see myself doing IT work in 10 years, but I haven't decided what path I want to take in the industry.

i wish i had a job with computers
nobody ever calls me back
i have literally never gotten an interview and I've applied to 50 job postings this year alone
i'm so sick of being a neet ;_;
>>53910435
Are you new? Maki is always /g/ related.
>>53910398
Of course not, I have a degree in Systems Engineering and ended up in a shitty IT helpdesk job, I hope I can be a senior sysadmin in 10 years.
>>53910475
Where do you live?
I'm a 2.5 year business major. I hate it, absolutely no interest in this field past the intro classes.
I get more enjoyment doing research on EE and CS. I'm thinking about switching, but the meme about how EE and CS majors are shit have been putting me off.
Help me /g/
>>53910475
>never gotten an interview
Trust me, it's better than getting interviews but not getting the job.
It's really soul crushing, I've been to more than 20 and no one ever called me back.
>>53910499
US
the only jobs i've ever had are temp work where I work at a menial assembly line for 8 hours a day with no benefits and they keep dangling "work to hire" in my face despite the fact that my coworkers are also temps and they've been there for 18 months and still haven't gotten hired.
>>53910486
Maki a cute
>>53910517
Did you ever do a follow-up?
What's your resume like?
Do you feel like you made a good impression during any of those 20 interviews?
>>53910633
Yes
College, some tutoring at uni, an irrelevant part time job
Probably not, I'm really autistic
>>53910507
I was aware of the CS is shit meme but I didn't know EE was a meme major too
When you say "research on EE and CS", what fields?
>>53910682
Aside from computer hardware, control systems and electronic design are just fascinating to learn about, at least from the perspective of someone who isn't conventionally disciplined in the field.
I'm currently juggling a few front end languages to see which I like using, I have interest in back end too though but I didn't want to overwhelm myself until I have a good enough grasp.
>>53910398
Since I don't work in the tech field, yes. I don't see anything changing in 10 years.
No. I don't know.
>>53910398
Dead. Majored in Network Engineering. Completely disinterested. Wanted to be a chiropractor.

SDN is going to put you out of the job as well.

Pretty much, famino. I could learn it, but fuck if I care anymore. Nowhere else to go from here.

Seeing how everyone wants movie editors to be a swiss army knife where you have to do everything related to post-production id say either Dead or very fucked

>he's a tech artist
many condolences anon, but working under a structure/guidelines will improve your abilities as an editor so that if you're ever severed from your current job you can always do freelance work while having diverse experience.
source: I'm a graphic designer who's been in and out of failing firms 3 times now.
>>53911042
It's a great hobby, but I'm not all too sure how I would fare sitting in a class versus learning out of my own personal curiosity as I do now. How do/did you like it?
>>53911092

I still have time to drop out of college in my senior year and live neet

Considering killing im self
Im going to be a coat- wearing slave and pay a fuckton for the privilege. And i wont make that much money.
Medicine a fucking shit
>>53911112
I know, maybe freelancing is the way. Some people have offered me to edit videos from a wedding and a party. Easy as fuck and pays good.
But i wanna work on the last dying years of TV, i did an internship once and i loved it. Now nobody hires unless youre an editing cuck who works all Adobe Products (some companies do check if you pirated the program) or youre a friend of somebody inside and have to suck some dick to get in.
>>53911117
Don't. Being free of responsibility will be nice for the first few weeks, after you'll just be depressed and chances are you'll probably off yourself.
More likely than not, if you're fit for the NEET life you already are a NEET.
Yes

>>53910507
just fucking go for it. If you like the stuff, you'll do fine. CS and EE are only meme degrees when people do it just for money and a stable job. Such people will generally end up with neither.
>>53911148
I'm currently doing some freelance work while I'm in business school. Look at your target clients, most of my projects involve businesses or people who have no idea what a pdf is so my process mostly involves pencil sketching and communicating closely before getting them a nice clean vector. I've reworked logos and signs for dozens of local businesses over the past year and it hasn't conflicted with my schedule in any major way.
Get some business cards made for yourself and put up a portfolio to show potential clients, you'll be surprised how powerful a sample work is for someone who isn't even considering a getting something done in the first place.
>>53910436
This desu
>>53911152
>just for money and a stable job
That's why I'm in business school, was originally going to major in accounting but it's not the kind of life I want desu familia
How is specializing in computer hardware in EE? I know I'll learn a whole lot of other things but I can definitely see myself working in an environment where that's relevant.
>>53911232
Thanks, anon.
I'm actually working on a digital resume where i show off my shitty skills, past projects and such.
I'll do it, ill freelance my life for now so i can get noticed by Tv or Movie Senpai
>>53911298
Best of luck, it's harder to be a freelancer if you don't have a gimmick. Get a gimmick.
Godspeed buddy, godspeed.
>>53911112
>How do/did you like it?
So much that I plan on getting a MSc right after.
>I'm a 2.5 year business major
What's your math background like? Isn't business related math extremely basic? You'll probably need to take a few math and physics classes before actual electronics courses.
>not all too sure how I would fare sitting in a class versus learning out of my own personal curiosity
You can always have basic electronics as a hobby, but you probably won't land a job in the field
If student loans aren't a problem for you, I'd recommend switching
>>53911372
>Get a gimmick.
Are people still falling for the "glitch" and "datamosh" meme? Its the best i got
>>53911377
>business math is extremely basic
Yeah, I'll definitely have to take some more there's no doubt about that.
>If student loans aren't a problem for you
I've saved up enough to get through another three years of classes at my current school should the circumstances change. Each semester for me is less than $3k. If I want to attend a decent school how much more would I have to pay?
>>53911415
That's one, but most people that like it are capable of reproducing it themselves. Target a general audience, figure out what your preliminary clients like then over-utilize it (tastefully)
>>53911480
>If I want to attend a decent school how much more would I have to pay?
I was fortunate enough to have rich parents willing to pay for college, so I don't really know.
You could always stay then transfer colleges for a master's, just don't be like most normie engr students to get accepted.
>>53910475
>I've applied to 50 job postings this year alone
I've applied for probably 1000 jobs in the last 6 months. Finally got part time work in a call center. Beats being unemployed. 50 job applications in a year... are you even trying?
Kind of
Hopefully not dead as I'm too much of a pussy to kill myself
>>53910398
Programming is an easy way to make money.
I want to retire early (at 30) and become a rentier. Working is for slaves.
>>53914531
Renting is an 80 hour a week job, unless you hire a manager, and then it's a 40 hour a week job.
No, I should have majored in Philosophy or History
I see myself existing in 10 years but thats about it.
