And what was your job situation under Obongo? Take some fucking responsibility for your shortcomings.

>he fell for the Apply Online meme
You have to actually go to the store and shake hands with the manager and ask for an application

>>12061518
kneepads

>>12061529
Yes I have skills and I can't find a fucking job. I was just at Walmart and saw a literal 60 IQ street nigger playing on his phone while he was supposed to be stacking shelves and I can't find a fucking job working with literal retards?!!?!?

>>12061543
I have done this before and they literally tell you to just send an application online.

>>12061543
OP actually do this. I replied politically, but if you actually aren't larping then this will almost certainly work

>>12061557
I know that, and youre falling for the trick

Go to the manager of that store (probably a fat black chick) and snitch on him. Take his job.

>>12061557
>>12061543
>just look him in the eye and give him a good firm handshake!

>>12061576
Wtf...it's not 1960 anymore, the managers don't even do the application processing, it's done by some HR rep or regional manager who isn't even in the same city.

>>12061518
Go on unemployment. You get paid and they make you go to job fairs. You’re bound to find something after awhile. Also, buy ChainLink and never work again in 5 years

It's your fault for buying things on credit when the fed is raising rates

>>12061922
Everyone's doing it

>>12061518
if you weren't a hambeast maybe you could work physical labor

>>12061518

>>12061518
>trump
This problem exists worldwide retard, it’s like blaming president for crime, some things NEVER change and this is one of them

>>12061518
Why do ameritards use credit when they can’t afford shit?

> Be me
> Graduate from college
> Look for a job
> Literally only 2 calls iirc spread out over maybe 6 months
> Part time retail job, passed on the second as it was also a part time job
> Few years pass
> Currently employed in an office where I'm disrespected more than the retail job
> Make slightly over minimum wage
> Total job applications since graduating probably over 1000

>>12062146
Because USD is the world's reserve currency, meaning the Feds can print however they like

>>12062161
>go to college in Washington State
>stay there for a year
>realize I can just learn everything about programming and computer science through search engines, online documentation, and Stack Overflow
>drop out and move back in with my parents
>study on my own
>get a 20-hour/week internship
>work for a year getting professional experience
>after a year, get a 30-hour/week part-time job
>work that for a year
>now have two years of professional experience under my belt
>get a full-time salaried job
>some friends I had in freshman year are now graduating with a massive amount of college debt, while I have no debt and real-world working experience
College is literally a Jewish fucking scam and is 100% not necessary

>>12062146

>>12061518
Take a cute pic of yourself and make a linkden account. An anon recommended it on here saying the roasties would hire you. Been trying to find a job for 6 months and literally got a job 3 days after making a linkden with a handsome pic. It’s that easy.

>>12062150

>>12061518

Wtf I thought America was running hot with shortage or people to fill jobs. Just go work for a chain restaurant or gas station.

>>12062267
10 years from now you are going to be 'downsized' and after all your unemployment runs out you're gonna realize all those online applications you filled out are automatically filtered out because you have no college experience and thats what all companies will be hiring as a minimum pre-requisite and won't even be able to consider you despite 'muh real world experience' and this is after you bypass all the jobs friends and co-workers can recommend and get you because they don't pay as well as your current job or they are a step down and beneath you
>bank on it

>>12062542

>>12061518
I was jobless for 11 months. Here's what I did. This is likely survivorship bias with a small kernel of truth.
1. Stop trying to get flooded jobs.
2. Stop trying to get jobs you're not qualified for.
3. Find a business that employs about 10 people and has an out of date website.
4. Bonus points if it's likely to be run by hippies or artists.
5. Cold email the boss with a couple of paragraphs describing who you are and what skills you can bring to the company, being very honest about it even if you have no skills.
6. Suggest going out for lunch.
7. Don't be a grinning faggot who's obviously too eager to please and says yes and giggles at everything.

Texas Roadhouse

>>12061518
Suck gay fat old man dicks for money.
It may not be very glamorous but it's honest pay for honest work.

>>12061609
They usually have computers look at resumes and filter them out first.

>>12063551

>>12063393
How do you get access to 4channel in prison?

>>12063551
I'm a manager and literally never had that happen to me. wtf

>>12062150
>I just graduated from College this year, about a month ago
>Have done some applications since I graduated but have gotten no calls, nothing but rejections emails
>This is my greatest fear
pls no anon, I don't want to be like you.

>>12063665
You've gotta be working in the right neighbourhood where all the sluts are.
Also make sure you always do 1 on 1 interviews with candidates and try to drop subtle hints that the employee moving things in that direction might get them the job (key word: SUBTLE, if you're too blunt about this you can get in some serious fucking trouble).
Ideas for hints would be "So clearly you can get a lot from this job but what can you offer ME(emphasize the "ME")?", that type of thing.

>>12061518
Have you tried Texas Roadhouse?

>>12061543

>>12061551
If you can't find a job in current year you're either a literal autist or the wrong color and you don't deserve a job.

>>12061518
You must have literally 0 skill to not get a job at Wal-Mart lmao. I have seen them hire literal retards to wander aimlessly around stores and have little to no job function, and they wouldn't hire you, take that into consideration lol.
You are probably one of those self entitled pricks and thought you were owed a job. Good luck getting out of mommy and daddies basement. BTW stop fucking blaming other people for your own problems. Part of being an adult is owning your own shit.

>>12063434
See, I'm betting it's only a matter of time before the majority of companies realize that a large portion of the college grads they are hiring are worthless. That is because many college grads are worse than uneducated, they are trained in anti-capitalism and marxist victimology, to the point it is becoming less risky to hire someone trainable without a college degree. For all of you who don't know, literally the only reason college degrees are required for so many jobs is that the federal government made it illegal to use IQ tests to screen candidates. College degrees used to be a good IQ test substitute before they started letting in so many retards for both ideological diversity initiatives and seeking to profit off of inflated federally subsidized student loans. This bypass is already happening in places like silicon valley, where despite their rhetoric, they understand their product is built on pure IQ horsepower, and their application boils down to essentially a skills+IQ corollary test, college degree not required.

>>12063669
looking for a job is a full time job in and of itself.

>>12063434
Competent experienced programmers don't have to search for work themselves. Just get a couple recruiters and pit them against one another to find you work.

>>12061551
Are you against diversity in Workplace & Social Justice??!!!

How dare you Bigot.

... I'm not a SJW just kidding.

>>12062267
>go to state school for CS
>graduate with $7500 debt
>first job paid $10K starting bonus, paid off debt

make $180k now while code monkeys at the same company make only $90k. also i only work about 30hr/week.

>>12061518
You are seriously doing it wrong then
There is absolutely no way you have done all you said you have and not gotten a job, unless you're in Louisiana or something
Bear in mind as well that oftentimes businesses will either call you or want you to call back to 'ask about the status of your application' or something, and then they'll hire you because you actually have shown that you want the job

>>12061518
look under gigs on CL, be homeless until u learn a skill

>>12061518
do you have an amazon warehouse in your town? they hire anyone that can pass a drug test.

>>12065013
working at amazon is hard but itll get you in shape

>>12063753
that's my fucking point, they didn't even call me back

>>12064728
>unless you're in Louisiania or something
you're close

>>12063865
>this

>>12061518
$24 can get you a good set of kneepads and some cheap lipstick

But I thought it was Obama’s economy until the exact moment unemployment went up and the stock market went down?

There's only so many cubicles is the office. Some people are just going to be left out. Cut and dry. All of the Boomer shit about handshakes and effort are comfortable lies. We're in the jungle. There's no free lunch. You have to forge your own path.
