I hate working more than anything

I only live for crypto if I don't make it off crypto I kill myself

Well that is great you found your partner. I'm going through a loneliness streak and sometimes I have thoughts that better looks would improve my life.

OP here.
I've been working at a club as a bartender for the past years. I want to get out because I just can't deal with drunk bimbos anymore. I went to college for finance but I dropped out because I didn't feel like I was fit for school.

I've been thinking about getting an IT cert and just doing help desk for a while. Is this a good plan to go with? I've been told that IT is a booming field and that I can work my way up if I continue getting more IT certs/experience.

My job is a sack of shit because startup.
Also Crypto is fun but I aint gunna mek it.

research associate in psychology, professors assistant and coffee slave on the weekends. People think I'm smart but the pay is abysmal. Going into law school.

>too autisitc for University
>Too smart for run of the mill administrative wagecuckery
>15+ years in IT
>No degree
>No certs
>Could probably make 200k easy with bullshit MBA.
>Don't want student loans tho. Fuck paying for knowledge.

It's not a bad existence, money to spare, house, nice car...

But the computer wage cuckery needs to go. It's better than pushing papers, but I get really depressed at how stupid most the human race seems to be.

Seriously this whole civilization is propped up by 10% of the population. Everyone else is a hopeless retard. 90K+/year because I can use Google.

So yes and no, more thankful I don't have to worry about TPS reports, but regretful I lack the focus to apply myself more.

id say look up pickup artst stuff bu that'll jade you even more. it's not hard to find a hot girl and sleep with her.

after a while you'll resent them though

I found my fiance when i was certain id be single for life. had to get a restraining order on my ex gf because she kept trying to have me shot.

wanted to be single for life. then i met my fiance

i dont deserve her. im an ass most of the time.

good luck user.

try drinking a gallon of water a day and working out. if you can afford it; p90x will get you in great shape FAST

do some reading, work on your posture, keep a clean haircut (not that shaved on the side bullshit people are wearing today)

floss and brush 2x a day, change your sheets often & get plenty of sleep.

also don't use soap on your face, just rinse it with cold water. you need your natural oils. people strip them with harsh detergents and wonder why their skin is flaky, red and bumpy :\

lastly, try to meditate. im working on learning astral projection now. it's not easy with my fiance and 2 chihuahuas in the bed. but im getting there.

>Going into law school.
Fucking why? (Lawyer checking in)

Research scientist. Intense hours and terrible pay compared to other STEM fields, but there’s nothing like it, i fucking love it. You get to learn from outstanding scientists and mentor young students, solve cool problems and do cool shit all day. Plus you’re literally at the cutting edge of human knowledge, on the front lines of science.

If crypto makes me rich, I wouldn’t change a thing in my life, except upgrade house/computer/clothes etc.

As someone in this field right now, yeah you can surely get a job in IT if you can get an a+ cert and maybe know how to reset a password in active directory. School is not worth it for IT imo. I have a 4 year degree in "IT" and learned next to nothing. Everything you learn is going to be on the job.

If you really want to accelerate your growth get a job at an MSP, you'll really get your hands on enterprise equipment and learn a fuckton.

I'm a pharmacist. I think the pay is good for the amount of work I do but it can get very hectic. It's a good fit for my personality.

IT can be great, especially when you end up somewhere where you're the soul person on deck. It can be pretty funny to watch a whole rooms eyes glaze over when you explain why a VM host's iscsi initiator crapped out and tried to use a duplicate IP after patching the SAN because of the Meltdown/Spectre bug...

Everything I just said is bullshit but management will never know, and they'll give you raises for it.

Oncologist and even though it pays well and some days are rewarding, most of it is just long and tedious. Riding crypto gains just so I can have free time in the future

that sounds epic bro :) Did you come here from reddit too?

I'm forced to work for my dad in a corner-store in the ghetto, shit's horrid. trying to quit at end of month, he'll probably just threaten to kick me out again. trying to find other job asap because sadly that's only way I can leave essentially, I actually work as sales rep for weed company but it requires constant attention, not something I can do three days a week, which is what I have off, so I essentially have to quit that job because I have to get a full-time job to replace the part-time shit I'm forced to work. it's pathetic as holy fuck, mainly on my part for having fuck all'd my earnings from post-HS till now, but that's what it is

Some days I enjoy my work. But even though it pays decent, it's a shitty repetitive job most days.

I work to survive, I am not happy

I love my job. I wake up most mornings and look forward to work. I'm a malware analyst for an AV company you've heard of.

AV programs suck. All bloatware.

They're great for normies. Useless against any sophisticated attack though.

Fuck AV it's all memeware

You guys will be redundant over the year as nore people realise that Windows Defender is all they really need.

I work in a nursing home wiping bums and generally providing for the elderly, infirm, demented.

Wouldn't say I enjoy it but it is the most rewarding (i.e. I finish a shift feeling 'yeah I've done some good in the world') job I've ever had and I've had quite a few over the years.

I know some carers too and they seem to get the same feeling.

I work on Porsches for a living, the pay isn't great but they're my dream cars so I love it

I don't care, I don't develop the applications. I reverse engineer malware. Its fun. I get paid well.

I do crypto full time now.

What's the point of going back to a soulless entry level job for 2000 dollars a month when my portfolio fluctuates more than that every 30 seconds?

Might go back to school though. I'd love to study astrobiology

I work a 9-5 and literally do nothing 99% of the day. I use all the free time to research crypto. If 2018 is a fraction of what 2017 was like, hopefully I'll be in a position to take back my freedom.

That sounds fun. Shame you work with shit software devs.

Class A CDL driver. drive a super 14 mostly and transport heavy equipment occasionally. 5 raises since july 2016. my pay is higher than average for truck drivers with below 5 years experience. comfy/10

my man

ecommerce bought this really dumb 19 year old a 996 c4, aside from the IMS(which has been replaced) how else did I fuck myself? paid 17k with 81k miles

Work in a technical field for the Navy

I go off on contacts for months at a time so I never have to worry about rent
Hope to someday sail around the Pacific Ocean and buy a house in rural Oregon. If all goes well I can make that happen by the age of 40

I'm a professional neet and it's great. I chill at my families beach house rent free because my parents are totally on board with me accumulating bitcoin. I day drink, trade crypto, swim, tan..whatever I want. And now that my bitcoin stack is fat I can go downtown at night and party.

I work in a nursing home aswell; Im a CNA and i absolutly fucking hate it. Im an ass wiper for sure. hard work, for horrible pay. Also, added bonus of working with lazy negroids who do not do their job at all and make all these old demented people suffer. It really is horrible.

Yes, my work challenges me and makes me feel like i'm achieving something.

I feel the best mentally when im working.

(Civil engineer)

My job is SO easy.

I watch TV and shitpost, swing trade.

I get paid for 40 hours a week and work about 8 hours total.

If I succeed in investing (here and the stock market) I will follow a career path I’m passionate about

Euro oncologist here
10% rewarding 90% sucks due to outrageous bullshit bureaucracy, understaffed department. Literally nonstop work. Im lucky if I got 15 mins time to go for dinner. Oncology is a fucking meme and barely advanced last 20 years. Apart from emotional support we dont even help those people because pharma is shit. Memed by pharma, cucked by gov, lawyers, socialised medicine, workload...medicine here in EU turned to utter shit. USA is next to get socialised in 10-15 years.
Hold it down oncobro, Im getting out this year and in the next years out of medicine.

I'm a full time photographer. I make 6x the minimum wage and it was my dream job since college

I'm going into work as a graduate technology analyst at an investment bank you've heard of in the UK.

Starting salary £35k which is ridiculous money for someone my age (21).

I won't need to worry about rent because will be living in my parents 2nd apartment so I can just accumulate crypto for the next few years and develop a cocaine habit.

Pretty content with life tbqh.

web developer
ez job, cool coworkers, big pay
of all jobs, it's a good one

>job

Same. Sad.

Start as a budtender at a dispensary in WA tomorrow. Pretty fucking stoked son

I work two jobs. Day job I get to watch kids play all day while I drink coffee and shitpost on Veeky Forums. At night I work in a bar and get to get drunk for free while hanging out with friends.
Trick is to just find a job you like and do almost as little work as possible.

I work long hours marketing exciting technologies to my customer base and buying and selling said techologies to and from the same customer base.

I'll let you figure out who these customers are. Work is for low IQ peasants destined for mediocrity and slow decline into wasted dreams.

i work as a part time waiter
even if it doesnt even pay my rent i love my job
hopefully will get some graduate management job when i graduate
its a big hotel chain

Cocaine.

Good for all night swing trades.

Bad for prophets.

Don’t kill your heart and mind user. Use your opportunity to create a legacy.

>work 9 to 5
>repair medical equipment
>get stressed because more work than techs

All I want to do is woodworking and camp innawoods. Unfortunately I don't have time to do much in my workshop. I cant quit my job either because its retarded hard to run a small business in today's economy and I don;t think I could make enough furniture to support my family, let alone pay my debts.

Had to exit my studies early because I was facing a tough situation and needed to work fulltime. Because of that I got stuck in the retail trap for 9 years. Most recent job had me in a basement stockroom with no ventilation and some kind of airborne irritant that gave me breathing difficulties + chronic coughing, and began developing severe muscular pains so I had to quit to save my health.
Right now I'm living off savings until I get back in to studies, but I managed to put a little bit in to crypto in hopes that everything will be okay in the near future.

That's gay as fuck get a real job user be a fucking man not some pussy numale shit

Ortho assistant. Sometimes its rewarding though I really wish to cash out to attend med school in the future. Being at the bottom of the hierarchy sucks donkey dick.

That’s awesome. I’m investing in marijuana business as well.

Have a good first day user

Have a skeltal

no i fucking hate it
i have two fat fucking faggot supervisors that i have to pretend to not want to spit in their face daily
i have 500k saved so i plan on quitting soon thank god

>Veeky Forums biz pajeet:The job.

Please sar

architect in shithole of a country
I love my job and seeing my designs brought to life but it doesn't pay well and at times I feel miserable when I realize my architecture will never be relevant because I'm only hired for low-profile stuff
if I ever make it I'll still do this as a hobby, would be much more fun if I didn't have to worry about finances

College dropout, 21 years old. Started working as C# web dev 6 months ago at $55k, have since become more a Linux sysadmin and got a raise last week to $68k. Have also increased my crypto to $10k.

For having only like 30 credit hours, I'm doing better than what most of my peers will be pulling when they graduate this summer.

Not horrible, occasionally the engines have catastrophic failures unrelated to the IMS bearing (Cylinder walls crack, piston slap). But besides that they are actually very reliable, ignition coils crack due to heat and water pumps leak. Make sure you vacuum radiator ducts every service to prevent leaves and debris from corroding rads. Personally I am a big 996 fan and yours looks nice, good job

I actually like the work itself, but I hate the people. My job is full of normies that constantly gossip, the fucking drama and politics is unbelievable. If I could work from home or be able to work w a bunch of autists like me, I wouldn't mind it. But the pay is pretty good, so going to put up w it for now. But as soon as I make enough in crypto, I'm quitting

Thanks user! Viva la cannabis!

I actually just moved across the country from Indiana to Washington, for the chance to be apart of the industry. I do web design on the side, and I'm building a social network around cannabis that will be launching in the coming months!

Good luck! It’s a booming industry.

We are gonna make it brother!

Appreciated, you as well!

We're going to make them give back our past.

That looks like such a pain to work on.

Bored peon working a 9-5, browse biz all day. Not really, I can play emulated games at work but I have anhedonia.

>As someone in this field right now, yeah you can surely get a job in IT if you can get an a+ cert and maybe know how to reset a password in active directory. School is not worth it for IT imo.

this. I have a degree in Art (go ahead, laugh) and I'm a network admin.

I'm freelancing for a bunch of shit and it's finally starting to pay off, but I started getting more into crypto as a means to surviving the slower seasons.

How long did it take you to get your certs?

Would such an entry level job pay ok?

What's your job/salary user?

Porsches are definitely some of the better cars to work on, not as bad as it looks lol

I love my job but I still plan on opening my own business. I like the work and the benefits/pay but I hate taking orders from retards. I can live very comfortably with my salary until I retire but fuck that. I want to be able to spend time with my kids and fiance whenever I want and come and go as I please.

I mix bands at bars in downtown Nashville, TN. I am a private contractor, so the taxes suck dick, but nobody else in the bars have the ability to tell me what to do because they have no idea what I do or how to do it. ~60k a year if I work every shift I have available, but my migrains and laziness usually lead me to miss at least a few days a month. I love my job most of the time.

I'm 24 just started working in commercial loan servicing, and make $47,500 a year. I also have $10k in a brokerage account I manage and another $8k in savings. I know that I'm doing alright for my point in life but it doesn't really feel like "grown-up" money.

I enjoy my career but I don't want to do it until the normie retirement age. Just long enough to fund my hobbies and purchase more properties to become a comfy airbnb slumlord.

Anyways, electrician here in Toronto. I'm a foreman for one of the larger union companies on highrise projects, which usually last between 2-4 years, so it's nice not bouncing around too much. I control anywhere from 5-20 guys, and seldom have problems with any of them. Been doing this since I was 20. 31 now.

How hard is it to get into/make it in photography? I kinda want to get into it as a hobby but it’s a bit intimidating, I don’t want to go halfway and call myself an Instagram genius like some other fags

doing better than most people your age. gg

IT/data specialist for healthcare org. I do like 1-2 hours worth of actual work on average a day and spend the rest of my time shitposting and drawing. Comfy as fuck and will hopefully set me up for a higher paying job in health care in a few years.

What did ya major in?

no certs. started as a tech and moved up.

I wouldn't mind work as much if I didn't have to get up so fucking early. I used to work at a place where I didn't have to be in until 10AM and worked for about 9 hours a day, but I was way more productive and enjoyed it more. This crack of dawn shit is a scam.

Damn thats pretty cool. Did you get the job because you had connections? I didn't think it was that easy to get a job in IT.

It's horrible unless you have a good network of people getting married or are willing to pay decent for good, edited photo sessions. Video is too much work desu.

Learn how to take photos and maybe video for your personal life and for friends but unless you want to be hating your hobby, don't try to do this for money - or at least don't give up your day job.

the latter

Network Admin jobs usually aren't entry level unless it is a small company. Good money at a larger multi-site facility though. Especially if u are the one coordinating and sending out other techs. I'm pretty happy with what I do, and it isn't boring since shit is constantly changing.

it's not that bad user, and you get used to it.
I'm up in the sky by about 645 daily. up at 530. I get so much more in the day considering I leave work at 3pm and dont sleep til about midnight. A lot of people get fucked over dealing with rush hour twice a day. Really eats in to your free time.

this was def one of those deals where i got talked up by a friend that was higher up within already. That was 8 yrs ago though. They gave me a shot as a tech, despite lack of certs and BS in comp science, then saw I knew more than most the other guys, so they kept me on.

I don't enjoy work. I hate corporate culture and politics. I dream of owning my own house which is why I continue to work even though I live with my parents and don't have many expenses at all. My parents are growing older and it'd be easier on them if we lived in a house and not the top floor apartment.

Houses here are fucking expensive and I don't know if I'll ever make it though.. which is why I put a fair bit of my savings into crypto, hoping I'll make it within the next few years so I can quit this job and have my freedom. When I do, I won't retire though. I'll just go do what I'd actually enjoy instead of working for money.. I hope everyone on biz makes it. I truly do. We all share the same dream

Nice, what field?

thanks man, you too... Getting into a house in hot markets is tough. I moved almost an hour away from Toronto for mine. Toronto has nothing good now. Anything under 8/900k is a near-teardown or in a terrible neighbourhood.

No, I hate my job. I make 70k a year right out of college in an inexpensive area and have no debt but I still hate it. Hopefully Chainlink moons so I can quit and live off interest in a safe investment.
