Re: Do you have a job? [Re: John Nada]

Basically where I'm at right now is that I have pretty debilitating physical and mental disabilities and I'm in the process of getting Social Security disability however recently it was cut by 80% in the federal budget so I'm not holding my breath. My doctors say that I definitely qualify though so hopefully Justice will be served there. Then there is the issues of drug testing which is a huge hurdle for most everyone I know. For me I use medical cannabis for four different prescriptions that he used to take and I cannot go without it and function.

In a perfect world I would love to work at least a few days a week during my disability to give me time to recover and get back on my feet. Therein lies another problem which is they say you can work a certain amount of hours and still collect disability but in reality they deem you able bodied if you're able to work 4 hours a week sometimes. Just because someone can work 4 hours a week doesn't mean they can support themselves on that. So on a psychological level I am disappointed that I can't work right now.

i chose unemployed and not looking just because i have no leads or anything but i still keep in my thoughts the MMJ industry, but i'm a shy person who has trouble talking with a stranger about anything, even muttering "thank you"

but at least i consider the idea

I work in a where house and it's shit.
Hard physical work and the pay is shit.
I am employed casual so there's no guarantee of shifts or hours.
No benefits like sick leave or annual leave.
I have worked there for more than two years and they haven't put anyone on full time for more than that.
There is a problem in this country where there is a casualisation of the workforce.
People are underemployed and are living in poverty.

On a positive note I am booked in for my forklift licence in two weeks.
Hopefully I get that and can get a real job😉

Good question.

Without a shadow of a doubt MotoGP/Race bike mechanic/engine tuner.

Fucking dream job right there.

Being a farmer aint half bad either.

I really want to find a job that actually means something.

Like it actually matters if I don't show up and never come back. Right now I'm in insurance and I am in a unique position but it's insurance. It doesn't matter if I come in tomorrow and help sort out small pieces of data and legal shit for a company that makes over 28 billion dollars annually.

Especially when me and my coworkers combined get paid 0.00001% of that.

Tough one. Probably an Indy Car Driver/International DJ.

A mushroom picker and a gardener

I really like drinking water from the ground,  with the sound of the streams flowing

Fuck no i dont have time for that shit.

I sell coke and weed to college kids :shrug:

Since dream and wsm went down, ive been having to go to sketchy dealers and buy large amounts of drugs.

I may end up having to get a job because its becoming very stressful with the threat of being shot/robbed


my freind was in and he and the other gang would trade fake money for fake drugs
his gang was collecting police looking stuff so they could rob people lol

in the next county over like 7 years after the fact they had a mini gang war

i honestly have been searching for a job since december
but it makes more sense for me to study and work on my own stuff than look for a job since going to school and looking for jobs doesn't give you any relevant experiance

i've tried to get jobs outside of my area of study but they think I will quit if they hire me so they don't, I go to like 2 or 3 interviews a month and walk out with nothing,
I can't imagine how someone would keep a roof over their head if they couldn't find work, we should round up the politiicians and scalp them for what they're doing to the average worker they make 300x more than

Selling anything on the dark web is extremely stressful you don’t know if anyone is on to you or the site is going to jack ur funds. Tumbling coins then collecting into a bitcoin gambling site and finally using it to purchase gold which u sell to a jeweler for cold hard cash. . . Hypothetically that is

Goddamn guys how do you do it. I feel like I couldn't even pick up my phone if I had 30 hours a week.

Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

I'm at work now it's slow so I am doing shit like going on shroomery. Before my youtube got de-monetized i would be working and making videos at the same time.

I used to do surveys for amazon gift cards, but that took forever. I'm looking for something I can do on the side while at work. It has to be something i can stop/start any time, like i can't take calls or teach Asians English on Skype.

I haven't been unemployed a single day since 2005. I would probably just drive for uber or skip the dishes or whatever if i had no job and a car. I have to work or I would have no roof over my head, my choice is work or be homeless.

I used to do 12hrs 2 days one week 5 the next (inc fri, sat, sun) and get 25 days leave a year. That was sweet. If you took the right days off you could be be off for 7 days and only use 2 days leave.
Sitting at a desk for 12hrs a day though was fucking soul destroying.

Conservation studies.
Pay isn't really the question. Qualifications and job availability are.

Most folk with a masters in the conservation field fight for unpaid internships. Making it a profoundly expensive hobby more than a job.

And it's because no one but government and non-profit organizations give a shit about conservation science and they give as few shits as they possibly can.


A major reason I dropped out of school was because I realized my career path was actually a one way ticket down the suicide road.
