You have to lower your initial expectations. Aim for GS-5 and 7 jobs (basically the only jobs you have a chance of getting unless you're already a govie). I used to work government HR, basically the way it works is you start at the bottom, then after a two years your probation period ends and you can't be fired without an act of congress. After one year you can apply to higher GS positions, which is the only way to get promoted. If you get what's called a ladder position (looks like GS-5/7/9/11) you get automatic promotions without having to apply anywhere, one per year. So even if you start out as a GS-5 making a pittance, in a few years you'll be well above median income and if you're really motivated and willing to move around you can easily hit GS-12, 13, 14 paygrades. And again, you're set for life by that point, you can't really be fired.

The hiring process also takes a lot of time: up to a year or more in some cases. So you have to be patient. Just make sure you tailor your resume to each position you're applying for and highlight any relevant experience you have with the same language used in the job description and eventually you'll get hired.

Ahh, feels good. I think I'll grill this afternoon.

>>27208163
Get back to the kitchen and get the steaks ready for the grill.

I warned the zoomers about robinhood. I told them to join me and the other boomers on etrade. They didn't listen.

Etrade 30 year old boomer here. I'm comfy here but will keep Schwab in mind if Etrade decides to prevent me from grilling.

Cancer? Not diabetes/alzheimers? Also please tell me the sweeteners in monster are safe or I'm going to go out and horde a bunch tomorrow.

I guess I'm just old fashioned.

>implying there's more of a point to life than propagating your genes forward through time
Okay wise guy, how should I get value out of my life other than what I've already got planned? And keep in mind that although progeny is what I want most out of life, it's not the only thing I intend to do with my time on Earth.

Sounds like that would just mean even more transactions and transaction fees. What's really needed is a network better than Ethereum that will still support ERC20 tokens so I can keep my LINK.

>>25016369
I literally started using ethereum two months ago because I couldn't find a particular shitcoin on exchange and had to use uniswap. I don't care.

>>24753779
Yeah, probably. Just depends on how you program the contract. I don't know how defi contracts really work though, I'm a BTC/LINK/PNK boomer, I don't fuck with other shit and ONLY installed metamask because there's no other way I can figure out how to stake my PNK on Kleros. I fully expect to get hacked any day now.

Roolllll

Why do people shit on suburbs and suburb living so much? Cities are stinky, filled with Covid, poor people, expensive, and unsafe. Even if you wanted to be a lifelong bachelor or some shit you'd probably find more peace and quiet out in the burbs and your investment would appreciate

None. All shitcoins will be banned. Eat a dick cryptofags! Stocks are back baby! /biz/ will finally be business-savvy again!

1. Pick a good project listed on Binance
2. Invest when it's crashed
3. Sell at 2x
4. Repeat

Boomers honestly know better than to get involved in this shitty gambling crypto scam with imaginary coins. Hard work, gold/silver purchasing and real stocks are the only way to go. Share your best Boomers
