Anyone can work, just try to be the ideal worker you would hire if it was you who had to find and trust someone to do that job. I.e. work hard, don't fuck around to much yet try to be pleasant, etc. A lot of people are fuck-ups. If you always do your best and put some real effort in what you do, you're already above 90% of the working population.

If you want to get involved in work politics, sure, that exists too, to better your position or whatever, but just getting a job is not that hard.

I really wonder how some people calculate their work hours. I do 5 x 11 to 13 hour shifts a week, so let's say 60 hours a week. I don't get how it's possible to do real work for much more than that.

That's on average a 12 hour day. If you had breaks and time to eat, that's one hour more, and add to that an hour of commute. So that's already 14 hours out of the day. Add to that 8 hours for sleep (including getting ready for sleep, waking up, brushing teeth, pooing, etc.) and you're at 22 hours. If you try to exercise a bit (1 hour, including shower) and take another hour for routine stuff (breakfast and supper, checking email, etc.) all the day is gone.

I get that some people can work more than 5 days a week, but after five days of this I'm kind of comatose (like now) and need the weekend to recuperate or else I would burn out and wouldn't be able to continue doing the kind of job that I'm supposed to do, which takes a lot of focus.

How can people say they work 100 hours a week or some dumb shit? Do they include breaks, commute, time they're on call and "meetings"? Or are they just larping? I just don't see how it's possible to do much more than 60 hours of anything actually demanding job without burning out or falling apart.

It can be fun sometimes to do these kind of things sometimes, it brings you in a kind of zen state, kind of like long. distance running, but yeah it's not really healthy or sustainable, mentally or physically, to do 70 hours or more. As for 100 hours a week, I still don't see how that's possible... I might be a bit autistic because I timed everything I was doing for years (I stopped doing it because it's not really worth it anymore) but I don't think a lot of people truly work the number of hours they claim.

And yeah, bought some BTC in 2011, forgot it, (didn’t buy pizza or drugs on silkroad) and since I’m a terrible lazy hoarder of my old PCs I dusted off the old Dell Inspiron and followed some online tutorials to find the wallet and what do you know? My coins were still there. Wasn’t a lot, but enough. I don’t actively trade cuz busy as fuck but now hold 50% BTC/ETH and rest in Stellar based systems.

Cut your fucking hair. Buy yourself some khakis and a shirt- it’s part of the program. You’ll reach a point where you can have your hair long or roll up your sleeves and have visible tats. But you haven’t earned the right so get ready for trenches. Refusing to tow the line will fuck you up and leave you at Subway.

Write down 10 industries or fields that you have even a remote interest in. Then map out anything within public transportation, bike, or walking commute. My personal beef, and I’m the medfag from above and I’ve resigned and moved cross country in the past over this, is that I shouldn’t have to spend more than 30 minutes getting to a job I work really hard at. NO. FUCK THAT.
Once mapped out, clean up well, study a few business etiquette introduction videos and learn to gulp down your NEET and control it. Walk in confident, smiling, and charismatic without being a cocky fuck. Look people in the eye, nod, let them finish speaking. Walk into a few places of interest- don’t be scared of a flashy law firm, dental office, or corporate place if that’s what you’re interested in. Have some cards, yes, fucking cards. With your name and email and phone. Make friendly with the reception or clerk or whomever you meet, they WILL talk about you to people that matter. Fuck online applications, it’s a stumbling block. I promise you- even if directed to apply online through HR, your application will be looked at simply because you had the balls/ovaries to walk in.

You’ll get a call even if you don’t have experience, be direct and tell them to you want to work in this field, are willing to learn and grind, and you’re gonna run into someone like myself or another who admires old school gumption. Be ready and willing to do shitwork.

>30%
There are places on the old continent you pay 50% regular and with overtime you get to nearly 60%. Working doesn't pay off in socialist countries

At least you have a social safety net though. Our burgertaxes just get spent on the military. You get sick here? Get fucked, treatment will only be 500k. Beautiful system we have here

Most of Americans have forgotten the golden rule to making it. I have neighbors on my street who own 5 houses all next to each other or across the street. Wanna know why the eldest son worked his ass off plumbing under someone until he saved up for tools and a house. Daughters same way don't really know what they do. I'm talking about house that are maybe 200k max. Moral of the story is this live with family or friends and save dat money on cheaper bills. Yeah its tough being so close to other people but you know what the end results outweigh the short term negative.

God I forgot how cringey it was seeing people give job advice. It’s like hearing baby boomers yap about mortgages and going vacation. Just so gay.


Wanna know how you get a job? Know someone. We live in a job market filled with druggies, niggers, and beaners. Employers would like to avoid most of these people if possible. The mere fact that someone will be able to vouch for you is more important than anything else.

Occasionally you’ll run into a company that holds its employees opinions low enough that they won’t hire referrals, but you really don’t want to work there anyway.

lol no that doesnt exist. Income tax is usually around 24, with some extremes such as denmark at 36%. Employer also pays 12-16% on top of your income tax, so yes technically around 50%, but of that 1/3 is hidden and is NOT being deducted from the salleries posted be eurocucks.

Dont paint our situation worser then how it is. Yes, we are being ethnically replaced deal with it.

learning a trade isn't wagecucking. He now owns to work trucks and runs his own business at the age of 28 because his family knows the golden rule of sticking together. Funny thing they're those shitskins you hate so much lol Stay mad because you were raised by divorced white boomers who fcked you financially. There's nothing wrong with actually working for money instead of Larping as Titanic boy from wolf of wall street.
