I stock stuff at Walmart,whatever they tell me
I make 9.50 an hour, work a bit over 30 hours a week, 4 days, but they usually keep me an extra hour lately
What is happy? Not financially, no. I stand by that. I work hard and am tired by the end of the day, and that is not a living wage.
Fuck whatever you say about me being a looser. If I didn't have help I'd be working and living on the street
The job is tiring,my coworker worked too hard and just about passed out
They gave full time to some lazy girl instead of him though

1 about 30, some shitty weeks more like 50
2 about 50k a year but this is california so inflated
3 bartender/server
4 most of the time, learning to appreciate things helps, for a long while i felt a stigma of not being more quote un quote. but i realize im making 25 to 50 an hour because i can work people and there is nothing to be ashamed with that working honest.

Just gave notice to my corporate slave lords last night. Was working 65+ a week. With the ridiculous amount of OT I was making almost 80k a year.

Found another position making a slightly better hourly rate, but with less OT I'll end up bringing home less at the end of the year. I don't give one single solitary fuck.

Moneys a helluva thing but it's not everything. I'd rather take the cut and spend time with my wife and kid.

I'm an Industrial Automation Tech. I enjoy the work, just didnt enjoy the sociopaths I worked for.


Fucking quote fail :crankey:

Yea, I'll take being told what to do over sitting awake at night wondering if your business will fail and you'll lose everything. That shit would eat me up inside

That's cool. The reason people say "quote, unquote" though is because they aren't sitting at a keyboard. At the computer, we can just do it like this: "more".

Between 8 and 12 hours a day. Sometimes up to 18 hours a day.

Between 5500 and 6500+ a month. Depending on overtime.

Sailor. Tanker ships.

Not always!

The three month on/one month off schedule is sometimes debilitating.
It very much depends on the crew you work with.

i have two paths to cash that i take:


1. ~10hrs per week /// ~30hrs per week
2. always under 10k (made about 5k in 2015)
3. busk/tattoo/sell my zines /// various piecework (mushroom picking, fruit picking, trimming, etc)
4. heck yes! every year i get better at earning my living and can dedicate more and more time to enjoying my life--i tend to do the piecework for a couple months in summer, and then coast on my tradeskills the rest of the year--mi love mi life!

I left my job at the of December to move across the country.

I'm an Electrician
I worked anywhere from 10 - 60 hours a week
I made $30,000 to $40,000 a year. It doesn't sound like much, but its pretty good because the cost of living here is low. I have a really nice life and I am usually happy.
I like the work I do, well most of it anyways

That doesn't sound that bad. Do they drug test? Anyone turn gay on long voyages? I assume you are going all the over the world, could you hide like 10 pounds of hash on the ship? Do you get to get off and walk around when you dock?
Sounds interesting.

That's why I worked a full time job doing construction for the first 5 years of my business until I knew I would make it.
