Work construction. Honestly too tired to even play video games after work anymore.
Electrical Engineer. Power systems stuff, so nothing that fancy.
I work at a sign writing firm where I make graphics/decals and much larger work but also do the installation and packing down for alot of events.
We do alot of stuff for Mercedes and BMW plus have a few companies that allow us to do all their signage across the country.
I start at 8am and finish at 5pm normally so I generally get about 4-5 hours of being able to play games and such after work if I'm not doing side work in my own time.
>>341213961
I'm a welder for an aerospace company. Don't really have much time to play games.
debt collector
Je's spray some 'skeeters; ain't much to it.
Xbox Support. Basically I deal with customers too lazy to google their problems or kids racking up money on their parents credit card.
I work night audit shift at a hotel. It's great. I'm at work right now. All I do is play vidya on my phone and watch netflix. If I had the money I'd buy a laptop so I can play real games at work but gaming laptops are retarded. Out of all the jobs I've had this is by far the best one. Pays like shit though.
>>341213961
I pirate.
Custodian, specifically substituting for a school district. Pays well to support my video gaming needs.
I don't, I pirate everything I play and if I can't pirate it, like with some multiplayer games then I won't play it
Crime scene clean up.
I'm unemployed and nobody will fucking hire me.
Sucks dick honestly. I don't know how neets do it. I'm forced to assume it's a massive facade because it's too good to be true. The alternative would be heartbreaking; while I struggle in a race against my own shrinking savings, someone who literally never works has all day to do whatever they want.
>>341215769
How's it pay? I assume a bit more than usual, because no one would think to clean that up.
Thinking about doing it if it's better than 8 an hour, 5 hours a day at night.

Part time at Goodwill to get experience for something not so shit. Its a terrible job and its a giant fucking scam with no real charity involved and everyone who donates is just looking to usually get rid of garbage in their garage for a tax right off.
I work at especially busy store so shit goes to shit alot and the supplies they give us are very little. I'll probably quit soon since its been 6 months there and i'm tired of getting my arms cut up by random shit and its almost Summer and shit gets especially bad then i hear.
Honestly its nice that i can afford to buy games on release and things like adapters just to use the controls i've always preferred but id rather be a poor ass NEET because this is cripplingly bitter. It has even impacted my relationship negatively as i've always been a extremely loving person to her but this girl at work combined with how i'm always exhausted from basically being minimum wage manual labor first called for everything all day sucks.
I work at a police department.
I'm basically a glorified office assistant but I get paid well and I can make my own hours.

Most of the time, these days line up together. When I first started doing this, I actually almost collapsed a few times, but my body has gotten used to it. I usually try to keep the vidya for my days off, which are far and few between.

I used to be a copywriter then I got downsized, got a job at my uncle's shop, and it turns out that I really like fixing shit so I'll probably either do this forever or go back to school to become some kind of technician.
It's actually great for vidya, too, because it gave me the confidence to start repairing all my own shit.
I pirate the vast majority of my vidya.I've been poor as shit my entire life--even grew up in literal poverty--and when I had spare money, I would only buy through deals/sales/etc; rarely anything full price. Now I'm about to go balls deep in loans for my Master's and I sure as hell won't be wasting that money on vidya.

90% or more of the stuff i get ends up going into the trash and whenever you tell someone something is basically flat out trash they get defensive like they can't be bothered to throw it away.
I just want to end it all. I feel like i'm being manipulated by this girl at work to i have a crush on which has strained my relationship she "flirts" with me alot but i assume its just to boost her ego since she can tell i'm clearly crushing on her.

I'm going in for an interview at a local Target tomorrow, any advice?
>>341218531
I'm close to just telling her how i feel. Which wouldn't be some creepy "oh i love you" shit it would just be me admitting to being infatuated with her and telling her how much what she does effects me to see and if she stops she stops and if not who knows.
At this point if it ended badly anon i would just flick off my bosses and quit there if you mean that kinda shit would happen. I'm really close to doing so over any little thing. The job is trash like flat out trash not worth the effort since i could easily be getting 10-11 at a construction site for the same kind of deal and probably more.
She seems to have real interest based on conversations we've had but its hard to tell honestly. Shes taken to walking past me and just randomly poking me and such one time i talked about how i'm always dating older women and she responded with asking if id date a younger one and saying she'd date a older man.
The problem is if it was me i can pick up on my own give aways. But alot of people are as shallow as their words reach so they could mean just that. I hate the coworker thing though tbqh it feels like the fakest interaction of all.
The only person i work with who i feel akin to is this one black guy who we go back and forth bagging on all day just because hes willing to say whatever to anyone he feels like because hes as sick of this shit as i am.

Not at all. I work from home and make $12.50 right now. The problem is you're taking back to back calls and customers can be cunts. You also work with cunts and often they don't know shit about games. Training is 6 to 8 weeks depending on what you get assigned to. Sometimes free xbox games and consoles will be given out and there is plenty of overtime. If you have a "customer care" personality, give it a shot.

Burning 5, 6, 7 years of your life on something because it seems like the right thing to do is a fucking waste, and I've seen to many people burn out because they stopped listening to themselves or finished and realized after the fact that they want to stay as far away as they can from the research process.
I'm not addicted to video games, but I enjoy them.
I'm a software engineering intern at a startup. Pays well, $7500 a month. I'm not sure what to do with the money yet actually, I'll keep saving it up.

If I'm involved with someone or have strong feelings for someone, they're the only person I find attractive.I'm aware that this isn't baseline behavior but the overall degeneracy of the human race makes me physically repulsed.

Well, if it matters, the places I applied at had multiple people with no degree's/AS-AS/certifications working there. And I actually did 'network' or just get referred to them in the first place.
It's fucking basic front end shit, why the fuck would they need a BA educated lad for this? The jobs posted sure as fuck didn't pay like a BA job should...
It's really difficult to summon the fervor to abandon almost everything here and travel to another part of the country to study 2-3 more years in a undergrad university.
I work the 3rd shift in a data center. I mainly just play weeb games on my vita until somebody calls me for help.
fw you know you should get a job but the chicken tendie game crazy out here
>applied constantly straight out of high school
>either never heard back or they hired someone else

I don't really bother anymore. Filling out applications puts me into a major depression.

Entry level internal audit position
It's p easy, and I'm just doing it as I finish my accounting degree
I run and file a bunch of reports on the hotel's revenue, guests, cash flows etc.
Just some basic reconciling and filing
Aside from that, I handle the guests during the night and those who check in late
Highly recommend it desu
The guests have no real way to complain because you can always say "Sorry, I'm alone here. We'll take care of it tomorrow" and pass shit off to AM shift
>>341219484
Nice. What do you do there?
Coder, IT, sec, marketing?
I get paid to get bitched at and micromanaged by several bosses a day doing work with ridiculous deadlines because higher ups always have absurd knee-jerk reactions to bullshit that doesn't even matter.
I'm in the military, 12 years strong and I fucking hate it. When I get deployed, that all disappears and new bullshit arises.

May i ask you what exactly do you do and if its fun?
Casino dealer. Average $17/hour with tips, but the hours are shit and inconsistent. I get an 8 hour shift once a month, most of the time its 5 or 7:45, somewhere in between. Also, most people are cunts, and dealers are always coming and going, so I get 6 days in a row, and I haven't had a weekend off in a year.
I want to run my own business, but I know next to nothing.
>>341219613
>3rd shift
I did that unloading trucks once and it literally put me in the hospital
Though my inconsiderate-as-fuck roommate didn't help constantly turning the heat up in the day so I couldn't sleep and being loud as fuck
>>341219523
I've been in my current relationship for over 5 years now. After that long its very reasonable to have feelings for another. I'm not talking love just lust/yearning for what could be which in the end usually makes me realize how much i value what i do have.
I've never cheated in a relationship before so its not like i've followed through. This is the first time i've considered it but like i said probably won't and shes probably just flirting with me to boost her ego.
I live off disability. I fell down some stairs and fucked my brain up. Now I get hallucinations and have personality disorders

If you don't mind me asking what country are you a cop in? What's the work like (is it tedious)?

I respect that you are able to handle it. I once lifeguarded at a popular resort and had to quit because I physically couldn't sleep due to anxiety

ETL here. Show up in business attire and tell them that youre a great teamplayer. Fabricate a story about how you worked tigethwr to accomplish tasks. That will get your foot in the door. Once you get the job, actually be a team player. Target is all about the team. Its good to carry your weight but the store wont perform its best if everyone iznt on the same page.
Good look witb the interview, bro.
>>341219385
Are there any prerequisites? Sounds like something I could definitely do, as long as they aren't asking ridiculous experience and everything.
>>341218083
I have a buddy at my job that does something like that
>wake up for fed ex at 11am
>work at fed ex from 1pm to 9pm
>go to dollar tree warehouse at 10pm
>work from 10pm to 1030 am
>drive back to fed ex and nap for an hour
>work from 1pm to 9pm again
>keep in mind both jobs are pretty heavy manual labor, lifting 5-40 pound boxes every few seconds
I feel bad for everyone that works two shitty low wage jobs, I don't know why they give up so much of their time for a slightly bigger house/apartment when they could either live a cheaper life with more free time or spend that time looking for a different job that pays more. Or fuck just work a second job on the weekends don't fucking kill yourselves on week days.They're my only friends and I feel really bad for them, I don't want them to work so much because that can't be healthy for them ;_;

Meteorologist. I forecast the weather 4 days a week (2 days, 2 nights, 12 hours), then have 4 days off (plus the day after the night shift ends - so kinda five).
It is lovely for vidya playing.
Now if only some decent games would get made.
>>341219470Well, graduate school is my only chance at having financial independence and stability. I have no meaningful work experience and I have too many severe brain problems (disabilities, obviously) to go out and get a standard mcjob to work my way up. The only thing that worries me about grad school lies within my severe memory problems and my lack of study habits/knowledge so I'll have to study often and use a lot of repetition to try and memorize/remember everything.Otherwise, I am genuinely excited and interested in my field. Neuroanatomy, psychopathology, psychology, so on and so forth, is absolutely fascinating.
>>341217720
I dunno, probably like $150 but I'm about to switch to disability because I'm just so anxious, and my back hurts and I have bipolar disorder and also several other buzzwords that doctor's like
Just starting out on my pursuit of voice acting. I'm saving up now for the eventual move to Texas. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous, but I've gotta take the leap some time.

U'm an engineer at my local gas companythe only one at the region, Job is hard sometims but the pay and the benefits are fucking good.
I have enough to buy all vidya I want but not the time to play It so I mostly buy 1-2 titles at month, sometimes lik this month none.
>>341219031
>i would just flick off my bosses
This is not a smart idea ever. You won't be able to get recommendations in the future.
>>341219826I used to try to write and that's what some girl said to me at the bar when she I asked what I did for a living. Dumb cunts think we're looking for a wife and not a slam pig. I've actually been thinking about getting back into it desu.
>>341219015
I don't know what position you are applying for, but someone who has worked at Target, do not work in electronics. It is incredibly miserable because you get so many calls from hundreds of people who don't know how to talk and want games or amiibos.
>>341219685
>If someone better comes along it's my right to pursue them, same as hers.
Yes, good goy. You do that. Further the end to our world. Humanity should be culled anyway with the route it is going down.
>>341219004
>At no point are you selling the items, you're donating them so why does tax come into it?
Tax comes into it because you can get a deduction for your charitable donations, which can include cash and noncash.
Basically, you can deduct how much you think the items you are giving away are worth. I don't like this practice because you can give useless shit to charities and then inflate the value of the stuff you gave on your tax return.

I'm also bipolar and have anxiety as well.
it's really fun, but it is possible to find work with these problems. Good luck to you, wouldn't wish this on my worse enemy
>>341219938
None, they just were always watching and always testing me. I noped the fuck out before it got crowded and I would actually be put in the situation where someone was dying and not just testing me

None whatsoever. Your benefits kick in after 90 days when you're considered, "In Production". The benefits are alright if you're single. Like I said, I was working with people who barely could operate a computer. You're going to be very, very, very bored during training but you get paid for it. You'll be sent a locked-down computer that is a piece of shit to work with, so sometimes you'll have to fight tooth and nail to get "tech-pay"
>>341219879Then keep your eyes on the goal, and don't let some the rigmarole of the process drain your interest in it. Research can be a really strange and disorienting thing when you first start it - true research is a really unique experience. It can be baffling and leave you feeling uncomfortable, but keep at it.

I work at a company that makes the plastic that covers chainsaws, lawn mowers, etc. It's fucking gay and I come home to damn lazy to play games.
Driver for a food delivery system. All work is done from my car, I work 20-40 hours a week, I set my own availability, and make anywhere from 200-600 a week before taxes. It's easy and relaxing work, and even on slow/bad weeks I make enough to get by. On good months, I can put away about $800-$1000. Lets me have time for vidya, writing, and game development.
Night shift tech support. Mostly watch anime and play vidya during my shift. It does get busy once in awhile but those days are rare.

Try to be friendly.
I had a friend who worked there that I can say would probably fuck up anywhere sooner or later and had no job experience. He was friendly and the guy liked him so he was hired.
Then after 5 months he missed 3 days of work and was terminated and can't work at any Target ever again. I told the fucking idiot to call in but, no, he's an idiot.
>>341219797
That sounds shitty
>>341218724
My nigger, I too work at a walgreens as a front end.
Considering the position i'm in, and considering walgreens would give me a scholarship hopefully, I might go to school to be a pharmacist, since I already have my foot in the door.
To anyone who is attempting to work a minimum wage/close to minimum wage job. Don't do it. Go to school. Those student loans wouldn't hurt you even if they follow you your entire life compared to the time you're wasting.
>Barely any pay
>Shit time to enjoy yourself
>"management" is basically composed of whiny cunts that don't do any work and blame the bare minimum wage workers for not being able to do everything.
Its terrible go to school for something that isn't terrible and come out and apprenticeship. If you wanna do labor get your tow motor license and go make close to 15 an hour with people who won't make your head hurt.
If you find yourself unfortunate enough to work one of these jobs without being retarded like most of the people who choose to you will be surrounded with people as shallow as a muddy puddle who just piss you off all day with dumb shit.
