So I'm trying to get back on my feet, to little to no avail so at this point I'm having to move back in with my parents. Not ideal, but at the end of the day what can I really do at this point. Trying to get unemployment in this God forsaken hick state has been an absolute nightmare and so far jobs haven't reached out to me so idk…I doubt I'm retarded enough to get NEETbux so…

When I was a NEET my mom always told me to get a job so I could be "somebody", so I could progress in life and have a decent life.
And I believed that, I believed that when I could have a job my life would be much better and maybe I could escape the worst parts of this life I hate so much.
Now that I have a job that is considered decent I realized that it was all a lie, my life is still horrible, I still feel sad and depressed except when I'm playing videogames or watching anime, all my money goes towards stupid consumption that just distracts me and doesn't make me any happier, I'm still the broken, depressed person that can't understand others, much less life.
I just want use this stupid money to finish a goal that I had when I was little and I think I will consider suicide after, this life is not worth it, getting a job is not the salvation that everyone says, if you're a broken human being and get a job you will still be the same broken human being with a bit more money.

Went for a job interview today at a deli, was told I got the job and just now finished filing my info on their site as requested. Already got the "welcome to the team" email. Hopefully, they call me tomorrow with more info. Gonna be working as prep, something I've done before in other places. But I've been unemployed for 3 years now. I'm a bit nervous to be around normies again but honestly somewhat excited. Not for the people, but for the work.

In early 2022 I had yet another breakdown. Horrific anxiety and panic attacks. I had to get my mum to take me to the ER three times because I thought I was having a heart attack or stroke. I laid in bed 95% of the day , I hardly slept. I just watched youtube in bed on the laptop as some sort of distraction from the terror. I lost some cognitive function temporarily during the episode, I had strange episodes where I couldn't summon the dexterity in my hands to type on my laptop. The breakdown was caused from being forced to get the clotshot(australia) and working in road construction as a traffic control supervisor. That job had stupid long hours with little time off during peak season. I'm a doormat of a man, more responsibility was placed on me than I ever wanted or could cope with. With bedrest,some zoloft and valium I recovered enough to be able to function again.
I wanted to do something completely different for work. I had been told from a relative that I should try disability support worker/carer for a change. They had some really good things to say about it. I went to the australian equivalent of community college to do a certificate in supporting disabled people. It took about 2 months. I secured employment shortly after. Its been the least stressful and tolerable job I have ever had. I support disabled people in the community, that is go to their homes or their families homes to help them. Its good kind of more or less working by yourself with a client and not having to deal much with coworkers. You just have to appease their families and keep them satisfied you are doing a good job. One of my main clients has severe autism(ASD level 3 or 4 iirc), non verbal, only needs moderate assistance with personal care(wipe his ass when he hasn't done a good enough job himself). He can escalate with violence when he has meltdowns but after working together a while this became easy to manage and avoid. He has limited interests and capacity to engage with the world. He likes watching youtube on his ipad when at home or playing together with blocks/board games together. He loves nature, so a majority of dayshifts are going for long walks at the beach and on forest/bush trails. Other than that I just cook for him, help him get dry and dressed after a shower and help him with housework.
I get paid $40aud (25$usd),with weekend and night shift penalty rates. I get paid far better then my old horrible jobs with none of the stress. Im thankful for now. This work might not be around forever, Australia instigated a national disability insurance scheme which gave the disabled people and their caregivers a lot more funding than previously to get help and respite from carers and support workers. It could be reformed or taken away at any point.

A separate provision of the bill brings about phased increases to the minimum wages in the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands and in American Samoa, with the goal of bringing the minimum wages in those locations up to the general federal minimum wage over a number of years.7.68 would be 11.12 an hour today, btw.

One year later, I had totally stopped greeting customers, stopped smiling, I told an old lady to her face that I would kill myself because of her, always just sitting down on the floor at the register, listening to music. When someone would ask me where something is, I'd never know because things were constantly being moved from place to place, and I gave no shits to learn anything new, so I'd just say "yeah, I'm new" after 2 years of working there.
One time, I filled in at a store in the nice side of town. There, customers were mostly friendly or cordial, very little mess to clean, fewer people since smaller store, and every few hours a customer would compliment me for something, and that made me happy.

>>281123How do you deal with coworkers who subliminally inform you about your wizard ways?
I work as a programmer and the new generation of developers are another level of annoying.
When I was young, I met a wizard working on banking software, who was a zen master intuitively knowing the ins and outs.
Back in the day, there was mutual respect for any type of dev and the levels of merit.
Now it's $people who went to $uni, got $masters_degree, do $job and play office politics mind games.
They want to be seen, climb the ladder, form cliques, hustle and grind and gossip or be smart and don't do any work.
There is no problem with just doing the job for the money, but they have no peace, tranquility and any interaction infects me with a level of misery I never felt.
There is a certain insecurity in them where they have to show off how normal they are and it seems to serve as an excuse for why they struggle with the simplest things, because they put the focus on their life but in the same breath subliminally accuse you of not doing the same, despite you simply having more years of experience on your back.
I minimize the exposure with working from home, for a few hours per day and avoiding calls altogether.
It all became a soulless disappointment on another level and it spills over to my free time.

For the last 16 months I've had a male boss, our job has been good, I get good comments from other people too.
My boss got promoted to cluster manager, now I have a female boss (still under the supervision of our cluster manager). My job experience has been hell. This cunt constantly whine and how she's promoting enmity between me and my previous boss when we've been gotten along for more than a year.
Constant phrases I hear every single day:
>don't talk to me like that, you are being too aggressive (over team chats)
>I am a succubus, take that in mind when talking to me
>I am your boss now, I can write you however or whenever I want

>>282270Honestly I don't know how to deal with it either. I had a similar situation where I tried fighting it and it basically came down to the top boss saying "yeah I know it's not right, but you're just going to have to put up with it and play along". Everyone else had basically bailed from her shift but me and I was left bagholding dealing with the roastie.
Usually if they're actively doing that it's because they know they can get away with it. It's literally a power flex and they see themselves as an aristocratic class above you, it's a sort of manifestation of female arrogance. Shitty male bosses just do aggressive bullying as a flex, but shitty succubi bosses literally think they're a feudal lord and you're a serf. She won't be able to sabotage your reputation around the place because these people are genuinely unlikable with everyone, and it's not just you.
My best recommendation if you can't handle it is just leaving, politely write a detailed letter to her immediate supervisor above with your resignation and say you'll return if she's not in charge of you. Techniggers like you (at least I think that's your industry from your post) easily get good jobs, you don't have to take that.
It's not really going to get better because she's always going to flex. If you really have to fight it, fight it by just saying directly that her emotional instability and whining is getting a bit much, and to keep her personal problems to herself. Just keep on hitting the point over and over, until it gets to HR, until it gets to other bosses. Just say it's been going on for a long time, it seems to be an inherent and she's in denial about it being a problem. The second you flare up in anger and yell, or get too aggressive, it's over. But stretching out the complaint long term, firmly, and just letting her know that her behavior has been poor for a long time and that the bigger problem is that she sees nothing wrong with it, at least brings it to light.
No.282278
I disagree, avoid fighting female bosses whenever possible. Better leave. The cunt has infinite internal capacity to bully and harass you, while you – being ironically more normal than her – likely don't. The thing is that such cunts live to dominate everyone they think inferior. They're absolutely retarded and incompetent, because all their lives revolve around this desire to subdue everyone. It's like kicking dead whales down the beach, really. Today she's gonna retreat, tomorrow her onslaught will be twice more desperate.
If you really feel reckless and wanna show the bitch who's the daddy, you should somehow undermine her position either by sabotage or by provoking her and then complaining. That requires skill and cunning and devotion, however. But if her superiors don't give a fuck, don't waste your life fighting the retarded. You may win, but it's absolutely not worth it.

The managers want us to work harder for no extra pay and obviously, no extra people. lol. The only good thing is that the managers actually help when it gets busy, but usually, they're doing reports or something, so it looks like they're just standing around. I'm going to ask for my hours to be cut so I can get more free time and look for another, better, job. The pay's never worth it for retail, so I probably will end up leaving without giving notice. I'll be lucky to get any jobs though. I might have to apply for another retail job, but at least then, I'll look for a higher paying job. I just need to keep my options open and try to improve my situation no matter what happens. If I don't get a new job, I'll decrease hours and try to make the job better for myself. If I get another job, that + a pay raise. If I get the kinda job I'm looking for, outside of retail, I've won.

Jesus christ, I fucking hate working with females. I have a part time job translating manga from english into my language. There are seven coworkers, four of them are young females, including the one who is in charge of the whole endeavor. They try hard to seem overly positive and friendly, but in reality they are passive aggressive cunts. Male coworkers are alright, despite them not saying much. But the females… There is one zoomer wannabe wunderking who is around 16. She is fucking unsufferable. Always tries her best to be know it all, always brings in her retarded zoomer humor and shit. Fuck my life. Thinking about quitting it and to scam boomers in one of them international dating agencies or whatever its called, cause it's such a pain in the ass, and for all my suffering I receive fucking peanuts.

“We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around. There’s been a systematic change where employees feel the employer is extremely lucky to have them, as opposed to the other way around. It’s a dynamic that has to change.”

There are too many tools of totalitarian control for this now though. I rather expect it all to fail. In the end, we are set toward a horrific dystopia where the plebs have very low quality of life.

I've been offered a job that pays a little bit more an hour then my current job. It's in a field that is interesting to me and, don't get me wrong, I'm excited to start it.
However it all just feels like I'm trapping myself into a new job that will suck up the majority of my waking life all for barely a liveable wage when all I really want to do is get the fuck out of this god forsaken city and move away so I can be closer to my family.
I don't even like my family all that much but they feel like the only support system I have, and they're five hours away from me.

All I really want is to find a way to either work independently and autonomously or be self-employed. It seems like it shouldn't be that hard because I, like all wizards, am a single guy with no kids who spends very little money. Unfortunately, the economy is shit and I live (with my parents) in a moderately expensive area, so being able to support myself is not as easy as one would think. I've been trying to find some jobs that are mostly solitary in nature because I'm fed up with normalfag bullshit, but sadly that type of work is rare or requires qualifications that I don't have and can't fake. I really don't know what to do right now. All I know is that I'm stressed as hell, constantly tired, and I just want this nonsense to end.

I recently got a store job after only really having experience with warehouse work. I thought it would be an upgrade but my boss demands way more of me, for the same kind of money I would have made at my past jobs. He expects you to come to these trainings on your days off without getting paid for it. It's also a small, local company so they don't have a HR department or whatever so if I have some issue with how they manage things, I have to go to the boss directly, who takes it all personally. I thought the work itself would at least be physically less tough but so far, I have mostly been doing the same kind of grunt work I'd be doing at a warehouse anyway. I'll probably be quitting soon.

You need luck and very extreme, niche skills.
Im in my 30s with multiple STEM degrees. I still cant even see a reasonably reliable direction in which one should go in gaining skills if they want to make money as a hermit.
In a third world country it would be trivial to make enough money with IT skills and/or scamming. Making enough to live in 'rich' countries with huge taxes… It seems so tough that it's almost impossible.

Those who manage to step outside that mental experience and try to abandon all abuse of others because they were abused are exceedingly rare, especially on imageboards which are generally fully of emotionally retarded zoomers who manage their internal emotions with external concepts like politics.
