NEET

I tried the working life. It was horrible. I quit voluntarily, without regard to how future events (esp. vis a vis my family) would play out

I would actually go back, but under very specific conditions - minimum $35/hour, working indoors somewhere that has A/C, seated at a computer, preferably in an office tower away from the plebs and assorted trash of the street, 10am-4pm (9am-5pm is too fucking harsh, I speak from experience), and I get my own cubicle.

I won't settle for anything less. Of course, I'm not willing to go to school, compete, or accumulate the experience for such a job.

So comfort zone it is then

>How much do you usually get paid
Depends on what I do. I take pretty good care of myself so I can still charge a decent amount. $150 for oral, $250 if you want to fuck me in the ass. I don't swallow or go bareback, though. I do also have a longtime client who wanted a more "intimate" relationship with me, so once he brought me proof he didn't have anything I could catch, we started a side thing. I get paid to keep him company for a whole night, basically. He gets to do me bareback because I know he's clean. There are also gifts every so often, but those aren't a requirement. He just likes giving me things. Sort of a boyfriend experience, I guess. The money could be worse.

Complete bullshit.

I worked as a security guard through university, and most of the industry shifted towards customer-service based. Ie, your social skills, your diplomacy, your ability to resolve conflicts calmly and get people to do what you want through words and non-physical means. There's still a niche for big bad dudes (esp. as personal body guards and event security), but that's the trend mang

Anyone will tell you, any serious crimes or intrusions means the security guard calls the cops immediately. You almost never see one guy dealing with shit. Even petty shoplifting, our mall had like 4-5 guards on the perp immediately.

Before I worked condos (a dream, just staying up at night in the lobby and occasionally patrolling the empty corridors, but not as good as the fag on cameras), I had 60-year old paki females and 300-lb totally out of shape nerds patrolling my mall. There's no size or physical strength requirements. Manlet, lanklet, if you're normie enough, you might be able to get a job as a security guard

It's a lot of work. Most guys want a cute, feminine boy to fuck. Being as old as I am, that means shaving and waxing, watching my diet very closely, exercising enough to stay tight and toned without building any real muscle, etc etc. I NEED to be cute because it's all I have, financially. I don't know what I'll do when I'm too old to live off this anymore. My only real hope is to find a wealthy older guy who's willing to provide for me once my looks start to fade.

It takes at least a week for results to come in, so that's not really feasible. He's an older guy and I'm the only one he's seeing so I don't worry about catching something off him. As for other guys, I use condoms. It's only my "sugar daddy" who gets to feel my bare skin on his cock.

I don't have the qualifications for anything. I was 14 when I was kicked out and I stopped going to school because it wasn't feasible anymore while trying to get enough money to eat that night, and I couldn't afford to pay the $50 they charged for each semester anyway. So basically I have a 9th grade education and I can't exactly go into an interview and tell them that I have eleven years of experience prostituting myself. That doesn't translate well to most other fields. Even if I find the time between the constant primping and the actual fucking to finish high school through a correspondence course or whatever, what then? I'm a high school graduate in his late 20s with no legitimate job experience or real skills that don't involve making men orgasm. Any job I could get wouldn't pay my bills.
>>28322396
There are plenty of sites with straight female prostitutes. Try poking around, Anon.
>Also, is prostitution legal in your country?
No, My local law enforcement mostly looks the other way because I keep out of trouble. I'm buying gym memberships and vegetables, not crack and liquor, so I get leeway.
>And I recommend you go to a community college and try to get something started
That's the thing. My only route is a correspondance course, and that's a month or so per course, maybe more. I need 22 credits just to finish high school. It's overwhelming.

It's going to be a tough road for you ahead, since you don't have much going for you besides prostitution, but you are a ticking timebomb, if you continue this you will end up dead pretty soon. You don't have a high school education and you aren't in US so I don't know if these will fully apply tto you but I'll give you the best advice I can here.

1. Get a GED, the equivalent of a high school diploma, for people who are too old to be in high school. I don't know how much these cost but I know they are not expensive. You mentioned correspondence courses, sure it could be overwhelming but the sooner you start the better, because if you start now you will be better off a couple years from now then if you didn't start this. It's ok if it takes 4-5 years to finish, its better than nothing, and you will know you will make progress.

That thought isn't horrible to me. I've had thoughts of suicide since before my parents never kicked me out. They come and go, but they've been really bad the last couple years. I've just been waiting on things to get bad enough for me to actually do it. I suppose when it all comes tumbling down, I'll end my life. I try not to think about it too much.

I don't dress in a way that makes it obvious when I'm out, so no. As for bars, I only really go to gay bars. I'm not a big drinker because that gets pricey and I don't want a beer belly, but sometimes they're a good place to find customers.

idk what anon's parents kicked him out for, but it wasn't as bad as being a gay prostitute probably, so I don't think they will help him in his current situation, because he "isn't working hard enough" to improve himself.

I'm healthy, but I don't have the right build for that. They would want someone strong and muscular. My whole lifestyle is based around keeping myself small and frail-looking because that's what a lot of guys like. I'm in decent shape but I'm not built for that kind of work. Unless I was the only one applying for a job like that, they probably wouldn't take me. And custodial work wouldn't pay the bills.

It pays about $11 an hour or so where I am, mopping floors. $88 a day assuming I'm working full-time. I would earn almost twice that by giving one guy head, and that takes me about ten minutes max. Five if it's been a while for him.

Town planner here. Work in a comfy government building protected from the public by call centres and get unlimited free coffee and short work days. Pay isn't exuberant but well above average so I'm comfortable. Also plenty of opportunities to BTFO of normies.

That isn't really worth it either, though. I can get experience, but that's costing money I could be putting away to provide for myself if things fall apart, and on its own isn't that useful in my situation. The key problem I have is that I have to choose between providing for myself, and improving myself enough that I don't need to provide for myself this way anymore. I can't work part-time, get my high school education, make money, and keep myself at the level of attractiveness I need to be at. It's not really feasible for me. I'm already barely sleeping because I need to keep long hours in case I get a good call. I'd love to be in bed right now, but I'm expecting a regular pretty much any time.

I used to be a pro photographer but the magazine I worked for went under and I'm not confident enough in my work to market myself.

After that I did all of the marketing and office stuff for an aftermarket auto parts shop, but my depression caught up with me and I got fired after not showing up for a week. I'm currently a NEET.

lolno
they want someone that can show up on time not drunk and will work the day. you'll get muscles for it overtime and anything heavier than you can safely carry (about a quarter your body weight usually) you should use a tool like a dolly or forktruck or something.

stop making excuses.

you either don't want to put in the effort to do an unskilled labor job that you qualify for, or you just don't care enough to improve yourself to the point where you aren't depending on a shitty prostitution lifestyle that you yourself admit may wind up killing you when you're too old or get a bad client.

Anyone can show up on time sober. I'm a liability in that kind of work. Plus it has the same problem as mopping floors; I cannot live on that wage. I don't spend a lot of money. This computer is ancient. I don't buy movies or games or porn or books. I only own a tv because it was already here when I moved in. Gyms aren't free. Good food to keep me in shape so I can earn is not free. None of what I need to not end up on the fucking streets is free. I have money saved up in case of an emergency, and I don't want to dip into that on a fucking lark. And you know what? I want to fucking die anyway. I've spent half my fucking life wishing I was fucking dead. The only thing keeping me going is the fear that maybe there is something after I die and I'm going to burn if I end myself. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go put on my nice tight shorts and a top that shows off my stomach, and then I'm going to let a man fuck me in the ass and I might even cum all over his stomach.

Wow. You're literally one of those cunts who thinks that they're above any kind of menial labour while they parasite off their parents or the state.

You are literally everything that is wrong with modern society. You will never ever obtain that comfy job, because you are a useless piece of shit.

Kill yourself, you entitled piece of shit.

You have to be super confident and talk yourself up like crazy to make it in photography, and it involves dealing with countless rejections and still sending out a million offers and advertising.

So pretty much like dating.

I have pretty severe anxiety problems and even though I know I'm better than a lot of the fucks that are getting work by bullshitting their way into it, I feel like I'll fuck up in one way or another if I actually get a gig.

I just want something that won't make me want to kill myself and will allow me to afford an apartment in a not-shit part of town where I can enjoy my autistic hobbies in peace. I don't think I'm asking for too much but apparently I'm wrong.
>>
>>28323380
wouldn't there be a way for you to mostly just show samples of your work rather than actively talk about your work?

I mean if I wanted a photographer, I would be judging them on what they can actually do and back up, rather than what the can talk themselves up about.

oh man. this is so sad. im 35 and i work in retail. what ive managed to do is literally incredible. ive gone from minimum wage job to minimum wage job, for the last 16 years. never once have i been promoted or given a raise. ive worked at almost every shitty chain store that exists. the pattern is always the same: i last about 5 or 6 months, then i get too depressed to get out of bed , so i quit or get fired for not showing up. i just give up after 5 or 6 months and realize i cant take this shit anymore. then eventually i have to get another job. I repeat the same cycle over and over again. its amazing i havent killed myself yet.

Cashier at an overpriced grocery store, though sometimes I wash the produce trays, clean the store, or work the meat counter. Just found out they're closing my store in 2 weeks though, so I'll have to find a new job )^:

Not really, sadly. The other thing is that pretty much anybody can take a few spectacular photos, but what matters professionally is consistency, which is why you see so many clusterfucks with wedding photogs and shit these days. Anybody can bullshit and claim that they produce that quality every time.

Getting work requires constant networking and pushing for gigs, and unfortunately I'm a robot, which means that soliciting work is like playing emotional russian roulette for me, and I can't help but compare myself to the best of pros when trying to get high-tier work. (I'm kind of stuck in this middle ground between the amateur posers and the true seasoned pros.)

You should have seeked help way sooner. Do it now and find something you want to do that you might like and has at least a career path. Invest on yourself and keep growing as a person, make yourself more valuable. Don't end up like my dad. You're 35 so you're late, but not THAT late. You can still have a decent life but you have to start now.
>>
>>28323646
Yeah wow what have you been doing for 16 years? How have you not killed yourself yet? I know I would be seriously considering it if I were you.

>>28323646
I'm mostly amazed that you can keep getting jobs. I can't even get retail shit despite having had a few long-term jobs in real fields that I then lost for similar reasons.

Business Owner/Game Designer.

Its a cool gig and I love the work and money I earn, but these hours are fucking brutal. And yet, thats mainly due to the fact I'm not as experienced as I'd like to be in programming. I've been thinking about taking a year off because I can afford to to attend college to try my hand at getting better, but I also want to accumulate as much money as I can and as soon as I can to buy this dream house I have my eyes set on. I'd hire on another programmer but then I'd feel like I'd get lazier with programming.
