What's your day job, Veeky Forums?

what's your day job, Veeky Forums?

I don't want to be a desk monkey all my life because it's terribly unfit but I wouldn't know what else to do

>he didn't get a STEM degree
wew

I do have a stem degree. I'm le autismo software developper and I fucking hate it.

CHAD is doing SCIENCE and having FUN while YOU are pushing PAPERS and want to DIE

kek

...

Work in a factory taking boxes off an assembly line then stacking them on a pallet for a buck over minimum wage.

This shit is ruining my joints (even if the boxes are relatively light, lifting 3000-5000 of them a day is just begging for an rsi,) but it's not too terrible. I like most of my coworkers (except for my turkroach manager,) there's basically no thought involved so I spend my day daydreaming while lifting light boxes, the machines break down all the time so we get frequent unscheduled breaks like the one I'm on now, and somehow despite being dyel as fuck I'm helping set production records and people think I'm strong.

Trying to get into plumbing after this.

Computer programmer. No joke. No excuse not to lift 3-4 days a week and still get 6 miles a day of walking (can't run...shattered my heel...) a day.

U considered teaching?

Security Contractor whike volunteering as a firefighter. 2 more semesters and I'll finally have my paramedics cert. Then full time paramedic.

Welder/fabricator

sikk forearm gains and cutting during summer is easy as fuck cuz I sweat a lot. Plus the pay is great

I make Mongolian barbecue at this Mongolian barbecue place. Trying to get into college ASAP and then into the navy so I can chill on a submarine for the rest of my life.

Field paramedic.

Kinda dumb.

Don't do it.

I like being a paramedic. Recommend 10/10.
> Comes with free PTSD

Tell me about it.

Walked in on a call for difficulty breathing, guy called us knowing that the sheriff's office wouldn't come for that and he just wanted an audience there for when he blew his brains out with a pistol.

so do you honestly have to do anything when you find a dead body?

I'm a supervisor janitor and work 3 hrs everyday 7 Days a week while getting my CS degree =^)

ayyyyy I just got a job similar to this today. Can't wait for those joint problems! What supplements can I take to prevent this? Im only 19 god have mercy on me

Pick a coner rate if you want to shower for a living.
Also.. get hot, nub.

Wait on scene until law enforcement arrives and then hand it off to them.

My first arrest, I put my hands through the pts chest. recent CABG

In my environment we have to declare death, report to law enforcement bc its a crime scene and notify the medical examiner

i run a hotel

i make $70k/year + bonuses

it's alright but a lot of hours

do you live in the US? Become a wildland firefighter; get paid to be Veeky Forums and fight fire. You'll only be seasonal for a while, unless you get some kind of natural resources degree. Eventually you get can enough experience to get a full time job.

The base pay is shitty but you'll get overtime and hazard pay going out on fires.

My exs dad was one. He said he quit because he found a dead baby and he had to carry it out. That was around when my ex was about the same age and he just couldn't take that

Shit seems crazy

Sales at GNC :(

I work in an upper-middle class neighborhood so it's only old people buying Quest bars.

That's pretty rough. I've split the stitches before, but never went inside. About a month ago though, I came up on a car wreck and went to hold c spine, ended up with my hand under the girls skull because the wound she was lying on was bigger then I thought.

It's definitely not worth what they pay us.

I wash dishes. its ok.

I work in a factory that is labor intense. Would rather have a desk job.

I got in with Ford back in April. I work on the line but at least i get to stand and walk all day and have decent benefits.

I work with autistic children and adults to help them gain some independence and get out of their houses (srs).

I only make $11.50, so I'm looking for something new I can do with a psych degree, but I know a bachelor's in psych is a death sentence.

I quit going to GNC when I found out they were commision salesmen. Even though I always tried to hagle

Why? Im starting something similar soon

Well, we do make commission but most men will give you what you need vs women who only sell for commission. Stay away from them. Of a salesman doesn't give you 3 options, don't listen to them.

Damn, I can only imagine how bad you smell at all times

STOP immediately and go be a slave for some temp agency, you'll move boxes just like you're doing now but you'll get like 14 an hour instead of whatever shit wages you're making now

Digital Cartographer (GIS)
It can be a very fun career but my present company is boring.
Looking to move to something more interesting.
Trying to work in the wilderness somehow.
10/10 grill taste btw.

CHAD eats PIZZA while WORKING at his ENGINEERING job & still has VISIBLE ABS while YOU count CALORIES & post on FIT & hang OUT with PANJEET

>I work with autistic children and adults to help them gain some independence and get out of their houses (srs).


Have you tried asking them if they browse r9k?

Software engineer at a credit card company

making 14 an hour now kek. Any advice on the joints?

I'm so fucking unemployed.

I was too until yesterday. Took me months to find a job that pays above mcdonalds wages. Apply to everything you can find online, youll find something eventually. Its okay to lie a bit on your resume, nobody is going to give a fuck unless you're making over 15 an hour

One client pretty much exclusively lurks the Steam community. When he posted once he was roasted to oblivion and never posted again.

Another client just watches Youtube gamers and occasionally goes to iFunny but pretty much stopped because of the autistic jokes there

doing an internship in the ecological reserve, studying to be environmental manager. don't know whether to get into the public sector after I graduate or start a private consultancy

it's just an internship so I barely get enough for the daily bus fare and lunch but the place is really nice.

i make your fuckin sandwiches.

Yeah I keep getting fired. Was working in a warehouse a few months ago, then one day just got this phone call like "Okay, thanks for coming, but don't come back." So I dunno. I was actually trying fairly hard to keep my autism in check at that place.

Iktfbro
>Hi, welcome to Subway

Were you good at the job? Im kind of worried about my autism. The environment is loud as fuck and it freaks me out

I was okay. I was in the special orders department which was basically if someone wanted special boxes or display items then we would put them together. It wasn't the actual warehouse. I think that might have been part of the problem because when you're in the same room with someone you've got to talk to them eventually.

So these guys are all old, married, or young want kids etc. All I care about is gains and playing the piano so it's like... what the fuck are we going to talk about? You can only shoot the shit for so long before you just start grating one another if you're too different.

So, unfortunately I don't have any advice, but I'm really rooting for you. Good luck, user.

I enlisted in the military. I'm a Marine Corps poolee right now, waiting to get shipped off.

You basically get paid to work out, prepare for war, and get yelled at.

Thanks man. From what I understand ill be working mostly on my own in the actual warehouse. Good luck finding something else. Apply for fucking anything.

Doing stretches for the relevant parts of your body when the line goes down.

NEVER skip a work out because you're tired. Working out that area seems to get rid of the sharp pain in that area and convert it to dull soreness. My back and shoulders are getting the worst of it, so the day I do OHP and deadlifts is my favorite day of the week.

All I know. Only been doing this a month and only going to do it til the plant shuts down around end of the year.

Also what state are you working in?

I'm a grocery clerk at publix. It's aight

It's sick, it's piss

I'm on disability but also starting school next September

Plan is to go into public works

All of your guys jobs are fucking pleb tier except the computer programmer

Yall need to work on your socio economic class

jimmy john's, nigga.

Only defend-able ones

honorary mentions


Everything else is total shit you should all be ashamed

I work at a liquor store. fat people and old people and all varietals of alcoholics

i just need enough money to survive, go to the gym and have a few drinks.

free time > money

I work at a cellphone store and make around 75K a year. It is so god damn awful though

People are fucking terrible

I've been alive long enough now to know that money isn't everything, materialism isn't happiness, and class is for the British.

You guys need to wear a fucking sign on your chest so I know not to associate with you

Top Kike

you do realize that if you're a white man that going into the steam field in dumb right? like your boss will just find some pajeet and pay him like half of what he will havee to pay you and since pajeets are just like the brown jews pajeets will take the job so really studying steam is really dumb because your job will be given to someone else in some other country for some low payment.

Bro, I can audibly hear your balls dropping off from across the internet

>it's hard mommy!
>The kids aren't playing fair!
>I'm not going to even TRY unless they play fair

WAHHHHHHHH

Grow the FUCK up loser

>actually taking him seriously

fucking newfags

Why would you shame them by mentioning them.

I can't tell what's real and what's a troll

>I can't tell what's real and what's a meme

As long as you're happy with your life it doesnt matter where the fuck you work

IT architect. Security projects. 6 figures and chad mode, watch your pizza and your girl (animu pillow).

I'm a social worker. Kicker is, I work with retards

being a mod on Veeky Forums does not count as a job

Doing a preapprentice course for HVAC&R/Electrical what should I specialise in to make bank/slay poon?

kek

im a Garde-Manger at an italian restaurant. its pretty cool. make 15 an hour too,

carpenter/builder

pays good (in australia), working outdoors, physical job. its great seeing something you finished and knowing you built it.

Just got a job at Best Buy as Asset Protection. Funny cause stealing from Best Buy is so easy I dont bust anyone's nuts when I know they opened those headphones up. Gonna have to quit my second job though cause its conflicting with Best Buy hours and hey they pay better.

I'm a full time barista and coffee roaster. Sounds like a meme job for useless people but I really enjoy it. I would study and do something else but nothing else has stuck, so.

Mechanic, going to become a certified tech soon.

How are apprenticeships in that general area? Been thinking about it for a while.

Graphic design and I'm a fucking skeleton

Grad student.
>mfw both my advisor and collaborator are on vacation and they won't return my fucking emails

Chat support for a video game company, it's desk job at the end of the day

This is how I felt when I worked at a restaurant. Everything else that happened there was a fucking hellhole so I just stuck around in the kitchen doing dishes.

It sucked when I ran out of dirty dishes because I'd have to hustle and find something else to do which I always hated.

How do you aquire said job?

How hard is it to get into? Is looking for an apprenticeship as a mid-20's guy realistic? Also Aus btw.

Might come in handy, i probably wouldn't want to associate with blatantly insecure high-horse pricks in the first place.

I work nights.

>live in and around pacific northwest portland / seattle area where lots of software companies and microsoft headquarters are

Basically I mostly I get accounts shut down for xbox customers that try to phish chat support and occasionally help with actual issues

What do you have to do to volunteer as a firefighter ?

construction work or warehouse. or enter the trades if you want to make more money

Construction worker , making 18.91 an hour. In a year will make 34.21 , but it's not what I want.... Hoping to save and go back to school , since no kids or any real responsibility. Btw 25 , how fucked am I ?

You're not. If you work in the united states you make a lot of money.

Get out of the back-breaking labor ASAP, even if it means less money and doing something you enjoy

I work as a caregiver for a elderly person with dementia. The pay is good and I gain some satisfaction helping someone with a mental illness. Plus, I'm always moving around, so plenty of exercise for me.

it'll be a bit harder to find an apprenticeship because lots of these builders are cheap cunts who just want apprentices for cheap. if you're over 21 they have to pay you more.

At our company, the 2 apprentices are 22 and 27 years old. A lot of companies prefer older guys because they generally work harder and are more focused on the job compared to some 16 year old fuckwit straight out of year 10.

I reckon you try do a bit of labouring at first to see how you like it, since your 1st year of the apprenticeship will pretty much be a labouring job anyway

Why is it so bad m8 care to go in detail?

Culinary Masterrace

>long hours
>shit pay
>awful diet
>drug and alcohol abuse
>distance from friends and loved ones

I'm so happy...

Sounds exactly like being an army nurse
