Applying to engineering jobs. Resume is OK but I realized that I forgot to write the typical "excellent verbal and written communicator...enthusiastic...team player" shit so I probably just wasted a bunch of time sending in applications that'll never make it past the ATS.

(we worked on a different side of town every day). literally couldnt afford that car / would have been out of a car with any other job. maximum enslavement and needless to say my credit is FUCKED because it got repo'd so i cant get a loan for shit. gotta save capital from my fuckin shitty $10/hr job.

trips confirm it

he is, they didnt save any money for my college tuition but bought several nice houses in my lifetime and a new car every year. i think my dad just wanted to confirm me as the failure he has always seen me as by manipulating and manufacturing the scenarios for me to be one himself. I wish I was smarter at 18, who the FUCK leases a car. I heard new car and was 110% on board. Wasnt old and wise enough to realize 3 years or watever the term was would come fast anyways and id be out like 15k and not have a car. what a fucking retarded thing to convince your child to do. Our generation needs to be saving money not building credit and incurring debt.

talked to a dude on WoW who has been living off either swiss or Norwegian welfare for like 5 years. buys food, weed, pays all his bills and even saves a little just playing wow all day. all he actually has to do is fill out 2 job apps a day and give copies to the welfare office people. doesnt go to the interviews obviously. if it werent for section 8 housing i would be doing that too, but im not trying to live in nigger infested gang banger neighborhoods. not a good trade off.

Man I feel like I'm just too dumb to get a real job. I don't match up with their expectations and I know there's no way I can just fake it. I feel like I will never escape the retail life. I hope something comes up I'm just getting too old to be working here. I feel so embarrassed when I see people I went to high school come in.

After applying to 2000 jobs in the past 12 months I have accepted the fact that in modern times, it's all about nepotism and who you know. Nobody gives a fuck how many things you've accomplished on your resume, what internships you have, etc. It's gotten that bad. You need to know somebody or blow somebody because there's just an overload of competition out there.
