yeah its one of the best jobs you can have if you have no friends/gf. you get paid to socialize. only when you progress to the next stage of life (married/kids) should you get into high-paying antisocial work like software development

Yeah, now grind for 35 years, sleep behind the dumpster and eat thrown out groceries you will have 1 million. Only thing that sucks that one bread will cost around $30 around that time.

Yes, you can easily make it if you live with parents.

Reinvest your wages into selling 10 delta puts with at least 500 DTE, on a mix equities, along with UUP,using margin. Put the cash on t bills. You will get 40% in passive income a year.

Get your account to 100k, and you can get portfolio margin and make even more. Like make 50k a year in passive income, if not more

Yeah, I am in Louisiana. It blows my mind that you make that much. Any felon could have your job and make more than a person with a 4 year degree. There are maybe 300 people in my city that can do what I or my subordinates do and literally any of the 100k people in my city can do what you do. Makes no sense why you haven't been replaced my someone who will accept $9 an hour. Consider yourself extremely fortunate to make that much with no responsibilities.

I had an SWE job that I recently quit and I'm seriously thinking of just getting a grocery store job at one of the places I can walk to from here. I've got ~80k saved up in tax differed accounts, I could use the job for rent + spending money, maybe get a roommate and have even more money. If it's really bad I could always quit and go back to software.

It just sounds relaxing.

Nice. You might need to make sure over and over that your boss understands that you want 40 hours a week.
But its also grocery store work so you can get time off if you want because push come to shove, your boss will fill in for missing workers if they have to run the fucking register themselves.
You're not getting insurance and vacation time but I'd say the work is worth it to not have to work in a steel parts factory.
No fumes either.
