I'm going from behind a total need of 5 years to doing an IT job 9 to 5 six days a week starting tomorrow. Unironically what am I in for? I'm scared I will kms.

I dobt know if you are telling me to have dec or saying I will have sex. I doubt the latter because a friend who works there and helped me in through nepotism is a permanent virgin and has never even kissed a girl.

I really dont, at least not right now. I just feel guilty neeting forever in my mom's house, even though I dont leech financially. It just dances on me sometimes how many years I have been doing it. I think the job will help build character and if I dont kms I will be more hardy after.

Basically same here, but it's an IT job at a school/ranch in the middle of nowhere for troubled teenage boys and I already overheard one of them calling me a "goofy looking guy."

>Goofy looking guy
Lol. Not the worst insult at least. I am afraid when I go to work at this place they wont like me. I am undiagnosed but hightly autistic and I have an avoident personality when it comes to stress so I worry that I will ignore people and piss them off.

I am anxious about it too, but its normal to be anxious about that stuff in an office setting as the new guy (assuming you aren't a chad). I sort of lied because I have had a job in the past 5 years that was pretty damn socially oriented (realtor), but nonetheless it was very incongruous for me given my personality.

I went through a temp agency. I told the agency rep that I wasn't qualified for the job and she told me to apply anyway. And lo and behold they didn't really need someone with all those qualifications and the job is very much within my competency as a lifelong computer screen starer.

It comes in my head from time to time, what do full time wagies actually do? I'm only doing such an intense job to get my foot in the door of work and I will do part time 2 to 3 days a week for the rest of my life. How does a human being work 9 to 5 every day and have time for an inner life? No wonder boomers and 90% of parents are lifeless husks infront of the TV when there not working.

>> No.52796093

>>52796063
Since you have worked before then I dont think there is a problem. If you were 30 and had never had a job in your life then that would be a bit of a problem. I see myself having employment gaps at your age because I want to make historical documentaries and fuck waging if that gets in the way.

I'm 32 and I was a pseudo-neet previously. I didn't work since the start on 2021 and I have a spotty job history prior to that. I am enjoying it, but I am still in training and only coming into the office twice a week. I think I will like the job and it overall aligns with my long-term goals for various reasons.

Art degree fags used to hate on me whenever I had classes with them because 'graphic design isn't real art' but now I get paid for my "not real art" and they all work at Fast Food restaurants.
