who else on here is embarrassed by their job? i'm a janitor at a supermarket and it just feels like everyone is judging me and looking at me like i'm pathetic when im working
sort of embarrased, I work produce at a grocery store. Are you a little mentally off or slow? I've worked grocery for years and the janitors are always bros so no offense, but many of them were slow or mentally ill. Come to think of it most people in grocery are somewhat mentally ill.
>>27782431
yeah man i feel you. im like in my 30's and i work at burger king. you cant imagine how many people look at me with sadness and pity in their eyes every day.
>>27782490
no i have no mental illness and the other workers treat me good, but i just feel like when you tell somebody you're a janitor, they automatically think you're a piece of shit
Dunno if this will make you feel better or worse but 99.99% of people you see daily won't even remember you exist in 10 minutes after they leave the store.
>>27782490
>are you a little metally off or slow
>asks this question on r9k
>>27782431
this is the price we pay for not having useful college degrees. most of us are doomed to a life of low respect wage-slave work
>>27782431
Me too jobin
I'm a janitor at a office building.
>>27782490
Top kek. Whenever I go to a grocery store I always think people that work there are weird and slightly retarded.
ehh I stock shelves at a place for rich people.. not pleasant. but.....
>>27782431
At least you don't do it for free
>27777777
Fhbfy checked
I worked at McDonald's for a bit, and wasn't going to school, and that made me feel pretty shitty. I worked as a waiter simultaneously, and for whatever reason that wasn't as bad.
I think it was the uniform, and the set pay. Working at a restaurant was neat because I got to wear whatever I wanted to, and people liked me enough to give me some pretty good tips. People also werent in a rush so I got to have pretty good conversations. I also think server/Bartender is a totally acceptable career path. The people who work at high end establishments make bank.
what bothers me the most is that i shouldnt be in this poisition. i got straight a's all through high school, and actually went to college and got straight a'sall through college and got my bachelors degree. true, its a pretty useless degree (world history), but still. i never dreamed id be in my 30's, working a dead end minimum wage job in fast food, alongside high school drop outs and gang bangers. Somehow, somewhere, i must have really fucked up. but honestly im not sure where it all went wrong.
>>27782661
I blame the decay of western civilization
>>27782653
The worst at McDonald's was "hey you're good at this, I bet one day you'll be manager" I get that it's supposed to be nice, but in my head it was "you look like you're going to be in the fast food industry for life" and I'm like "shit, I wanted to be a lawyer"
>>27782567
Oh, we are. The cashiers are normal people as long as they are young. If the bagger is highschool age he's probably semi normal, if it's a grown man something is wrong. The regular aisle stockers are introverted and antisocial normies for the most part. The "perimeter departments" are where you'll find truly pure autism and degeneracy. Meat market, dairy, produce, floral, bakery, and deli. These are the people that got a job at a grocery store back in highschool and just never left. The real whack jobs work in these specialty departments. Especially meat/butchering. Those are some weird motherfuckers and this is coming from the produce guy.
Substitute teacher so sort of embarrassed. Have almost quit out of the shame I feel-that and the hatred I feel for children.
>>27782661
You just didn't work hard enough sonny boy, though I sympathize with your pain. Back in my day I had to work at McDonalds for 1 whole summer before being able to afford a a down payment on my 3rd house and new sports car
peope are like, dude, you have a college degree!? what are you doing working here, lol?. makes me feel like trash. with a history degree all i can do is teach high school, but guess what, i live in a tiny toen that has one high school, and theres no openings. i know, i know, why dont i move to a bigger city? well, to do that, you need friends, or money, and a car (which i have none of)
>>27782431
I used to feel that way in my 20s, but now I sort of envy people with those jobs now in my 30s.
>>27782661
same boat. I have a bachelor of science in psychology and have worked random jobs for years. Grocery, pizza delivery, catering, retail. I just now got my commercial drivers license to drive an 18 wheeler, lots of opportunities. Now that I have it I'm getting cold feet about driving one of those things all day for a living.
I'm 27 and a taxi driver. Pretty embarrassed to tell most people what I do.
>>27782735
That reply made me kek. I used to work at a grocerie store when I was 14. Damn that sucked. Anyone who's an adult working at a grocerie store (besides manager) is definitely slow.
>>27782806
i thought of doing the trucker thing. but i know id be that guy who didnt turn the truck soon enough at some super narrow busy intersection, and turns the truck over on its side, or who goes down a hill and cant brake fast enough and have a panic attack, and cause a major accident

Hope you don't work for kroger
>>27782842
what's embarassing about being a taxi driver?
>>27782431
Office wagie here.
Internally it's an embarrassment of a company. But everyone thinks it's a respectable job because "muh white collar".
Whatever, don't make a big deal of it. I was a janitor for a few months, shit job but it's $$. Don't worry about not being prestigious or whatever. Worry about not being paid enough, or wasting years of your life in a job you hate. If all you want to be is a lower-middle class janitor, that's perfectly fine. Some people want more money for nice cars, big house with a pool so they can "impress" their 16-year-old daughter's cheerleader friends, or they want to retire by 40 or 50 or 60. Some are fine with video games, a small apartment and a beater car. Either choice is fine, what will make you happy. There's tradeoffs for everything.
>>27782880
It's the people you meet outside of work that matter. What if he's talking to a girl and she asks what he does for a living how do you think that would end up?
>>27782868
not necessarily slow, some of us are just degenerate. I'm only there because I almost ruined my life with crippling alcoholism. I think I'm fairly intelligent though. There are a few of us there. Non retarded people who fell into some kind of addiction.
>>27782532
I work in an office. When the janitorial staff comes in I just leave and grab a snack while they do their thing. I'll be honest, I think of you as the personification of a function. It'd be like if instead of light switches we still had servants lighting candles. I don't hate you, I just wonder why your job hasn't been replaced by machines.
>mfw I'm mapping out my new sit-com of working in a busy grocery store at this very moment
>>27782965
The way people treat you when you tell them. Some people are cool, and just ask me if I have any interesting stories. Most just look down on me though.
Otherwise it's a pretty chill job.
I'm 25 and I work hotel staff at a resort on the beach. It's not so bad, not fast food or grocery store tier, but when I see guys close to my age that work in banks and shit I feel pretty bad. I don't make shit.
>>27782899
Yea I started out so enthusiastic and I liked driving the rig but the more I drove the more I realized how fucking dangerous it is to do that every day and how mind numbingly boring it would get once the novelty wears off. I almost had a panic attack taking the driving test because I somehow lost my gear and forgot where I was, I couldn't find a gear to get into. The tester was starting to get concerned and was asking if I could stop, I wasn't in a good position to stop lol. I finally found it and ended up doing OK, I got an 88. She didn't know how to drive an actual truck she only graded us so I played it off like it was some sort of mechanical error. But yea, I'm certified and scared to do it still.
I've never had a non-embarrassing job.

Just posted this but it got deleted. Relevant to bread

i always thought of taxi driver as one of the most respectable working-class jobs
most of you have decent social skills and are highly knowledgable about a wide area, both of which are attractive traits
>>27783109
>my former teachers would point me out as an example of why you stay in school
this shit is why people go on shooting sprees
I used to always feel like this when I worked at a bowling alley. Drunk assholes spilling shit and me having to come over and clean it while there just like "my bad bro".
When I saw somebody I knew I would avoid them like the plague but if some retard gets a ball stuck I had to walk down the lane like a retard in front of everybody.
Luckily tomorrow I start my first respectable job as an electronics repair technician. I just like saying it. Cant wait til next time im asked what I do.
And the shop is all modern with a big screen tv always on and big monitors and awesome little screwdriver and tools for fixing various shit. Its gonna be awesome son.
me, i work for my dads company, been this way since i dropped out of college 3 years ago
i dont tell anyone because i know nepotism is bad yet everyone knows and walks on eggshels around me because they think I can get them fired when that is the farthest thing from reality
i hate my life
>>27783159
I don't believe this. It's too obvious. "Cleaning sports equipment" isn't even a job.
>>27783244
>loving dad who got you a job
>"i hate my life"
>>27783214
I just tuned it out. I was already too beaten down by the world to care anymore. I'm a straight man letting men fuck my ass and cum on my face for a living and this is still the best my life's been in over a decade.

yes im luckier than most, do you understand how guilty it makes me feel? how pathetic it is to know without your family you would be jobless because you have no skills or talents and always had an easy job to fall back on?
i never wish this life upon anyone
Parts Advisor at a car dealership.
I'm underpaid, but that's probably due to the fact I'm going to school to be a mechanic, but I get parts cheap as fuck and labour on stuff I can't do at half cost, so I love working here, also get to wash my vehicle for free and use the detailing products whenever I please.
People at my job like me, I think, but it's a revolving door of salesmen, and I don't care enough to get to know them, because I know in a month's time, they'll leave. So some think I'm a dick for not talking to them, I just can't be fucked.

>>27783499
it's just unhealthy to feel guilty about something like that
it's the same as hating yourself for being born in a developed country, or being born not disabled, or whatever
it's good to be aware of, but you shouldn't punish yourself
and like i said, many successful people do have the same kinds of unfair advantages you do

I was kind of embarrassed at first but now I don't really care. Just work towards the end goal of self employment the rest is irrelevant.
Security guard at a hospital. Same feeling bro.
>>27784858
You graduate in 08?
In my family, I'm the only one of my generation to graduate college on time. All my cousins have found some way to drop out and are working menial retail jobs for minimum wage.
I even have a job right now that pays more than what most of my aunts and uncles make doing blue collar work and managerial retail bullshit.
But no matter what, it's still not good enough for them since the job isn't "high status" enough.
>>27784858
god dammit you guys whose parents drop you jobs don't have it that bad
>>27784892
what are the big security risks at hospitals, anyway? people stealing gold teeth? senile people walking out?
I'm more embarrassed not having a job. But the only jobs I'll be able to get are ones that would be embarassing, so it's even worse.
>>27784858
Aim lower, I did and at least got a job kinda in my field. The most peasant company you can think of, they need financial analysts.
Places I think of:

>K-Mart
>Dollar General/Dollar Tree
>Boost Mobile/MetroPCS/other ghetto phone service
>Frito-Lay
>etc.
All these companies have corporate offices. All the poorfag companies that sell baby powder and Q-tips, they need finance guys. Not everyone's going to get into high finance right off the bat.

I went to a local tech school and paid out of pocket. Almost $3000. I really did get a lot of good experience and learned so much. I basically already know how to safely drive an 18 wheeler at this point, for some reason towards the end of my training I turned into a quivering vagina and I'm scared to get a driving job. I don't like manual shifting at all. I also hate studying for HAZMAT and I failed the test last week, I'm going to study and go ahead and get it this week.
I work as a fucking dancing taco in front of Jesus Tacos.
You fucking tell me if Im embarrassed. I fucking hate every waking moment. But it seems thats the only place that'll hire someone with such high anger levels like myself.
The looks from people I get sometimes makes me want to lose all sense of reason and attack them.
I hate how im belittling myself. Im angry at myself for having to need this damn job.

You just described my life except degree is in creative writing (equally useless). I think about suicide every day. I probably won't do it because I'm too scared of death but I honestly can't see life getting any better. I don't know where the good days are going to come from.

There's nothing wrong with being a janitor. If you can come to terms with being a janitor, try to get a job with a local university or gov't office; they usually pay decent wages for the work, even more so if you work there for several years.

I wish I had done a STEM degree and just focused on my writing on the side. Like you I was encouraged to do what I really wanted to do instead of building skills for a career and working on my passion in my spare time. Worst part is I'm becoming aware what a mediocre writer I am. I was a big fish in a small pond, I should never have been encouraged to pursue a creative career. I'm not special.
>>27786216
>>27782431
People are so fucking stuck up about whatever stupid bullshit they do, when in reality, the janitor makes a bigger impact on people's lives.
Sit down on a clean toilet? Janitor. Soap to wash your hands? Janitor. Piss not all over the floor? Janitor. In reality, they should be paid a fuckton more than they are because they're literally responsible for keeping facilities clean, which is something I value, and everyone takes for granted.
>>27786251
I almost feel as if there's a movie based on that premise.
But really, the janitors at my university (the chem/bio dep't, anyway) are pretty well liked and get treated/paid decently well.
>>27782761
I really do fucking hate them. They fucked everything up for the people who came after them, and continue to do so, then have the tenacity to call us lazy.
>tfw I got a BS in economics and am now working as a mower salesman.

I was like you but with music. I can play instruments, I grasped the concepts and could compose a little. And I was completely mediocre. Unless you are some kind of prodigy or are extremely driven these soft creative degrees shouldn't be encouraged. I'm not saying some gifted artists can't make some kind of living doing this but I'd wager 80% of us graduated and went to work at some Walmart tier job. I wish instead of pushing me to dream I had instead been pushed to be practical.

Work harder at home than you do at work. Art is a discipline, as I'm sure you know. Start a patreon, get your work everywhere. Even if you've already done so, keep doing so. Pander. Make stupid shit that people like, so they'll buy and donate.
The feeling of it being disingenuous is just pride. Swallow it. If you really worked that hard on your art, you can apply the skills you've developed towards stupid shit that people will pay for. You need to work so hard that you'll basically have two full time jobs, and you'll have to work even fucking harder at the one you do at home.
You may not want to hear it, but Chads, though shitty, do work hard. Football training is ass breaking, and it gets so much harder if they get into college ball. It's easier for them to work hard because their lives are managed by other people. You're gonna have to drive yourself harder than their coaches drove them.
And even then you might fail. But at least try.

hi lee
Small police department DISPATCHER here and it sucks like shit. I've heard at least a dozen times it's a girls job and that's no joke at all. All the other guys who work(ed) this job hate it after awhile. Only women have the mental capacity to handle phone call taking, or any talking job.
I gotta quit but the money isn't too bad and the job is piss easy. Just feels like I'm wasting my life. I actively pretend I'm about half as smart as I am just to not stand out as some amazing dispatcher and also being really good doesn't get me anywhere. It's a dead end job and raises are mandated by the state.
>>27783244
There's really not that much wrong with being handed a job by your Dad, as long as you live up to it. I'd love to have something great to hand my kid when I have one, as long as he's competent enough to do it.
Small scale nepotism isn't a problem. Of course you're going to employ friends and shit in meaningless positions, and use jobs politically to insert people into employment for favors. Your kids are gonna man the grill in your restaurant, your dumb nephew can always work in your hardware store, ect. Nepotism is only a problem when somebody hands their friend/kid/relative/whatever a position that actually matters and they fuck it up. Nobody wants to hear your brat sing on your $10,000 studio recording. Your dipshit nephew can't manage a department full of lifers right out of college.
Be happy with the job, and live up it to give it value.

this is a bummer
i'm not in college (dropped out because i could smell the burning money and failure when i got there) so i'm not exactly wasting money, but definitely am wasting my life. i just want to work at a record label or something, i realized i'll never be a famous musician but i just want to be around something i love for this miserable ride. when i tell my parents anything about being having a job that you're happy to go to they are literally repulsed by it and unable to understand. everything is fucked.
I've had shitty jobs my whole time in the working world. Mostly warehouse stuff. One was for a brand of running shoes and that made me feel good. Nice culture and coworkers. Then I got a job cooking in a kitchen. Not like a fast food kitchen but not a nice one either. That made me feel like the biggest loser in the fucking world. I was still a high school drop out flipping burgers, y'know?
Now I work as an auto glass replacement technician. While the job is sort of stressful and you get shit on for the tiniest things, I do feel better about myself. Like a professional. Seems like most people find it to be a semi-respectable job too.

>>27783627
doing what? any other qualifications?
You shouldn't be ashamed of your job, most things people do for money are just positions created to keep them busy. Anyone who puts you down for whatever you do are pure trash themselves. I'm too much of a coward to even apply for jobs, I'm not in school either.
I'm in this weird paradox situation where I think it's not worth working just to scrape by with the basics but it's also not worth working my way up to something needlessly substantial. I'm going to be out of money soon so I can only hope I have the balls to kill myself.
>>27784858
do you ever regret working in your dad's restaurant? I'm in a similar situation where im choosing to study software engineering or taking over my dad's food business.
>>27786939
what do you do? why do you feel empty?
>>27787248
I work in law enforcement now.
I feel empty because I'm in my late 20s early 30s and I want to start a family. Everyone I went to high school with already has at least one kid and I really want to be a father. The only downside is that I know how bad women are and I don't think I can ever fully trust one.
>>27782518
Just pretend to be a manager bro, people are naturally shitty, you just gotta ignore it. Few people can say they are truly happy.
>>27786821
I put it in a female prostitute years ago. I know you said mouths don't count but it's been in a few mouths at this job. Sometimes the scene calls for them to suck me off for a while, usually at the start before I get fucked in the ass, sometimes at the end to make me cum.
>>27782842
Is your name Travis?
>>27782735
fuck man...
i have the shit to be a butcher
fuck that feels bad man.
>high school drop out, small business owner
>nobody I knows I didnt finish high school
>still feel ashamed of my job, I never say I own it, I just say I work here, unspecified
Fuck all this everything-but-degree-related-employment shaming.
>>27782735
> The real whack jobs work in these specialty departments. Especially meat/butchering. Those are some weird motherfuckers
I work in a meat department and can confirm, everyone else back here normal but me
>>27782431
I'm not embarrassed, but I should be doing a whole lot better given my age.
>>27782431
I'm 22 and work as a cashier.
>that feel when customers ask you how college is going and you're forced to admit that you dropped out
>>27787331
Why would you want to bring a kid into this shit show of an existence? Even more-so, one unlucky enough to have you as a parent?
Selfish IMO.
>>27786053
Now THIS is a fucking bad job.
Why is this stupid method still used? I always wonder.
A guy dressed as any cartoon shit won't make me hungry nor it gonna convince me to give it a try at the restaurant, if anything I'm gonna think that your food place has 0 prestige if it needs to use such childish method.
>>27782661
>degree in world history
wtf why, waste of money
>>27788387
How hard is it to casually lie? Jesus christ these autistic beta fucks never fail to suprise me
>>27788843
I mean, I do, sort of. At first I'll dodge the question, but a lot of people harp on it, at which point I tell them that I'm on a "break" instead of telling them straight up that I dropped out.
I don't feel comfortable lying more than that because my boss is usually around (mom & pop store) and I don't want him to catch me in a lie.
>>27782431
>33
>2 STEM degrees
>haven't worked since 2009
>Still living with parents
The shame of my situation is killing me. I've accepted that my life is a failure, and that I will never live up to my potential. I'm just waiting until the day comes when I wake up and finally say to myself "I'm done. Today is the day I kill myself."
>>27788973
>I don't want him to catch me in a lie.
you should go to his house and kill him and put on his clothes and try to convince his wife that you're him
its worth a shot
>>27782735
Tfw your a butcher and you get looked at like your scum
>>27782431
Nope, I'm actually proud of my job, even though it sucks a lot of the time. people seem to respect it. Not so much my coworkers, but people outside of work if they ask what I do.
>>27782490
>most people in grocery are somewhat mentally ill.
I don't know about most, but there certainly are some, I've noticed particularly any of the people who bag groceries and many of the people stocking shelves and cleaning.
Two downs guys I used to go to school with got jobs bagging groceries. Also, my best friend as a kid (who is a crack baby and has Autism, bipolar, and a laundry list of other things got a job at a grocery store. He lives in a residential program.
>>27782431
work in security for concerts and shit, kills me everyday
I worked as a security guard, both are embarrassing regardless of you are unarmed.
I worked as a CIT guard (Cash i transit) a fucking retard could do, do nothing but wait for money drops at the airport, walk around with a gun and fill up ATM's, go into banks.
When I'm unarmed i just walk around and do some patrolling, or I'm a static guard. It was pretty embarrassing working at the Melbourne Cup a while ago. I was initially a static guard then i was allowed to walk around, it was pathetic as fuck.
So many beautiful women dressed nicely, with boyfriends, guy's walking around all dressed up who have real jobs while I'm some schmuck in a white uniform and a radio.
our parents climbed to ridiculous heights then pulled the ladder up.
Boomers are a plague.
>>27782431
just tell people that you are a "facility manager"
>my job is my dream job
>I worked hard starting in middle school to have it
>plenty of money and self-employed, could retire at 25
>I get to have fun and make other people happy too every single day
>I can see the light die in people's eyes when I tell them what I do for a living
>they either think I am wasting my life on something stupid or just write me off as delusional on the spot
Eh, I just don't talk about my career, and consequently, my biggest hobby that much. There are other things to talk about. A lot of my friends don't even know what I do for a living. And most people assume the nice things I have were from rich parents. Im fine with all of that. My job is still personally satisfying and that is what is important.
I worked a year in HS at McDonalds. The free food was good but the job was utter shit.
I moved and got a recommendation to work at Hobby Lobby. I became a seasonal stock-boy and was laid off after 5 months.
After 2 months of almost killing myself due to being both unemployed and failing college I eventually landed a job at Moes. An utter shit job with free food and horrible management.
After 5 months of that I got rehired at Hobby Lobby and have worked there as a stock-boy since (about 2 and a half years). Between being "responsible" for cleaning a stock-room I have no control over and dumb managers with terrible ideas I can safely say that the only thing that could go through those doors that would make me happy is a semi-truck.
Last week I finally got a full-time job else-where doing the one thing I enjoyed in Craft Shaft, framing. Just not dealing with customers, being able to wear headphones and consistent hours make it eons better than that shit-hole.
I'm an embalmer, it's not really embarassing but it's not the kind of job you'd brag about.
The usual reaction when I tell people about it is awkward silence or jokes about necrophilia.
Engineering dept at a resort here. Pretty much handyman status, fix toilets sinks or whatever.
We have a couple outdoor pools that snakes like to cool off under the shade of the umbrellas. Little harmless garden snakes. I get called out there to pick them up but theyre usually pretty quick or already gpne by the time i get there.
Responded to a snake call yesterday, couldnt see it. Nobody else saw it. Walking away i hear a woman shriek.
"SNAKE BOY COME HERE!!" she points in a bush. "GET IT SNAKE BOY GET IT!!"
It was a garden hose.
Snake boy.
>>27791214
What qualifications do you need for that job? Seems like a chill job and beats flipping burgers all my life.
>>27791316
In the UK it's a 2 year qualification, I got my employer to pay for the training on the condition that I stay in the job for x amount of years. I spend my day listening to podcasts while I work on my own in the mortuary. A strong stomach is obviously necessary.
It's different if you're an americlap though, as far as I'm aware you have to go to mortuary school where they teach you all aspects of the funeral trade including embalming. I'm not 100% sure though.
>>27791398
Do you find the work affecting your mood and stuff? How long did it take you to get used to the job?
>>27783109
>gay porn
How do you ever get it up if you're straight? How much do you get paid per shoot?Post a video you're in so I can fap.
>>27791423
If affects me when I have to work on children or young people. You have to see some messed up shit and I'd be lying if I said it didn't bother me at all. I'm pretty good at leaving work behind though.
It didn't take me very long, but I'd been working in the funeral industry for the past 5 years so dead bodies weren't exactly new to me.
>>27786084
English degrees aren't useless. I'm an English major currently a second year in law school with a summer associate position lined up that pays $2,500 a week and then $140,000 once I start at the firm full time.
>>27787811
Go for it bro. Butchering is cool and theres nothing wrong with it. And its not like you HAVE to be insane to do it. I'm just saying most of them I've met are nutjobs. I've always had a bunch of respect for meat department compared to most other jobs in the store. I've met a couple normie butchers but they tend to be consistently insane, it's been a running joke forever that the meat department is fucking weird even by grocery store standards.
>>27791310
lol, I work at a resort in florida and that cracked me up. We have snakes too but I never have to pick them up. I did have to shoo a large squirrel out of a room the other day. The guests expected me to pick it up by hand and get rid of it.
>>27787038
If you're taking over the business instead of working for it then it's a no-brainer, choose the latter
>>27782431
>>27782490
>tfw work night shift at a grocery store
Pretty comfy only downside is normie shits start showing up around 4AM and by 6AM it's full of them.
>people holding other people in low regard simply because their job isn't "glamorous"
this needs to stop.
I'm a freelance writer.
To be honest, my job in terms of the actual work duties and setup is boss as fuck, a lot of people straight up don't believe me when I tell them that I make my living online.
However, I am a little embarrassed about approaching 30 years old and still only making 30k.
>>27782431
I quit my job yesterday
everyone looks down on janitorial or cleaning jobs but just imagine how disgusting the world would be if no one did them
makes you wonder how much these people even think
>>27793369
It's because those jobs have extremely low bars for entry. You don't need to be intelligent, talented, skilled, educated etc. to work as a janitor. Of course they're incredibly important jobs, but so many people in the world are capable of doing them that their perceived value crashes through the floor. Intellectual labour will always be more respected than physical labour.
>>27782806
Been there. Done that. It sucks.
You spend your life on the road, it's not a 24/7 vacation as the recruiters have you beleive, the only thing you will see is the interstate and truck stops.
Troopers hate your guts and will try to extort you however they can.
Some places you deliver to will try to extort you for lumper fees, dont pay them out of pocket or you won't be reimbursed.
You can expect to make around $500 per week.
And you most likely will get laid because lot lizards will be trying to get in your truck at the truck stops, just wear a condom or two.
>>27793084
what do you write
Janitors are the comfiest jobs for robots my family. I'm a janitor at a middle school. I clean at night. Can bring my music and be alone. No boss hovering me, no co-workers. It feels good.
>>27793478
And even jobs that could use good thinking to make sure issues don't arise later generally get dumbasses to do them.
Warehouse work is so smooth and easy when you take a minute and organize things in a smart way but there will always be some fuckwit that ruins it on your day off
>>27782771
Ouch, literally trapped
>>27793684
I wish I enjoyed cleaning enough to do that job
>>27782518
Kinda the same, in my thirties in a dead end job. It is interesting to see that people don't bat an eye if old people do cleaning but if you are middle aged you are automatically a loser in their eyes.
>>27783456
Holy Kek Batman
Nd anon here, outside sales for an oilfield company.
That feel when you hate people but you took the promotion anyways, and now you have to meet customers all day long
I just want to sit on my office
I work at a sex toy shop. It's really weird seeing people from my university show up. I can never mention the work I do in normal conversation
>>27783109
>pain in the ass
oh i bet anon
>>27793084
Wtf there's nothing embarrassing about making 30k while being comfy at home regardless of your age
quit shit job in the food industry yesterday. Start new job as a pawnbroker tomorrow. Well I already started. But it's full time now. Honestly love it. The customer is always wrong, and it's my job to lowball them.
Come on robots, bring me your xboxs and I'll give you $30
>used to have shitty retail job
>now have shitty office job
It's still a massive step up.
No asshole customers, job title sounds borderline respectable (credit controller) & there's no real stigma to it.
All I do is email other people like me at other companies all day.
My advice for retail/minium wage hell fags:
-Go to night school
Doesn't have to be college, just do any fucking training you can get on that sounds "job"-studies.
Plumbing, accounting, electrician whatever. Just do something that you can build on.
It is possible to start at the bottom.
Just don't wait for it to change.
