I'm well worth 30+ an hour. Sorry for ranting

By being a busboy?

---

Nah I haven't worked in restaurants in years. All though I'm very good at it. I miss the atmosphere. Now I'm getting a journeyman shit in restoring houses.

I do miss all the cute ass girlies. Hostessing. All of them were way to hot for me but they were forced to spend 5-6 hours with me.

---

False. A girl is never too hot for anyone. With that mindset I'm not surprised you didn't get any of them.

But no worries. I was the same exact way a year ago and even came on here with my problem to shroomery. Long story short. My cock was wet in no time with some hot girls.

---

Agreed. Looking at my track record they were gorgeous. And they all loved me. No bussers at the hostess stand. I literally created that rule. As I always talked to the pretty girls in my downtime.

Hehe I was talking to one of them and my boss said ask her out already or go do something else.

He got me a date.

Anything over 6 feet high and you better be using fall protection.  OSHA don't fuck around.

---

I have never once seen OSHA on a job.  They would be horrified.  Do you know what else?  Neither I nor anyone who has worked with or for me in 40 years has ever fallen off a roof or gotten seriously hurt at all

---

Yeah, that was mostly a joke.  I actually was on a job where OSHA showed up, apparently having been summoned by a "concerned neighbor".  Multiple counts of working without fall protection, at about 10 grand per count.  The roof was ridiculous, like a 3 or 4/12 and super walkable.  I believe it was arbitrated to a much lower fine due to the immediate compliance via everyone harnessing up and using ropes, etc.

Live within your means. It would cost $10,000-$40,000 to BUILD a small, reasonable home. You work until you're 45 or less and can retire.

---

But I'm not going to be as cool at 45. Not going to be ablre to get the bitchss I do now. Boring.

I always say I'm not going to be young and cute forever. Why I've moved states twice. My friend gave me an opportunity to move to Montana. Sure why not never been sounds fun.

College is a waste unless you specifically have a career in mind that requires schooling. Like being a Dr. Most of the kids I went to school with chose four years for some arts bullshit. Some ( I know them personally and they are lazy shits) talked mommy and daddy into 8 years, for some BS degree. Can go to college all you want but the truly smarts ones are the ones who don't have to shell out money to learn to win in this system. They do by themselves.

---

Hehe I got accepted to Arizona state. When I visited I went into a zumiez or some shit and was talking to the dude that worked there. He told me only go here if mommy and daddy are paying for it because your going to be fucked up the entire time.

I ended up going to uaa in my home state. I fucking hate Arizona. I'm alaskan it's too fucking hot. Same with Florida. Fuck that.

I'm a broke ass basic bitch. I didn't pay 270 to park I stealth parked. Got 2 45$ tickets. Paying for the right to do homework. Ya fuck you.

I graduated with 20 extra credits in high school. Half a year I didn't even have to go could have graduated early but my sister decided to be a freshman so I was her ride. I think I took photography I was already awake.

What exactly makes you worth $30 an hour?  Are you particularly skilled in something other than, "talking pretty girls out of there money"?

this is what I've been saying lately..no reason a home needs to cost 200 grand. maybe even find a way to escape building codes

We don't pay rent. We got a 2 bedroom trailer that's actually nice. The landlord we basically do random work for her as we're young and know construction. She owns the house next to us and runs a day care through it. it's a great set up and I average about 1400-1600.

We've been fixing it up turned the water off in winter without draining the pipes. What the fuck. That's been a hassle still don't have running water. We actually need to ask the landlord if we can buy the land. She was just going to demolish it. It's easily worth 50 grand when we get done with it.

As long as you're studying something which you will really value and appreciate then there's nothing to lose. Don't just go into it thinking about making money... I know it's hard to hear this coming from having very little, but material wealth is not true happiness. It takes the inner fire, burning to all maximum brightness, living to one's fullest in the quest for truth, to find true happiness. And once you get there, you don't need a reason to be happy, you simply are. Maybe you already feel this way,
but if happiness is your goal, then just study and work for what you love, not for what's going to make you rich.

This is exactly why so many people are graduating from college with no prospective job opportunities, which forces them to seek low skilled and low paying jobs. 

There is something to be said for the arts and the virtues of academia for its own sake, but taking on incredible amounts of debt to chase fleeting moments of happiness is a fool's errand.

I'm working for my buddes dad remodeling. I have a whole story he told me to say when the state showed up and there's no building permit. And I was tearing the roof off by myself.

I live in SoCal and my commute is like 8 minutes. Fuck that city rat race.


Op knowing how to run the front of the house is a really simple concept, once you get into food and beverage costs, current trends, advertising, maintaining food quality and cleanliness you can get a chip on your shoulder. Just saying fuck you dumbass to your manager only exhibits your failure to excel with such an incompetent supervisor.

Anyone looking to build a house for 10k well it is either an earthship made of mud or a shack.

If you want financial independence you have to play the game and be lucky. Budgets are a tool although I never have adhered to one, if you don't have enough money work smarter and harder. Know your true worth.

you can build a house for 10K. just don't make it over 200 sq. ft.

Work smarter and harder - typical advice. All that ever did to me was burn me out.
I like to chill out and get by. Works well.
