I am 25 and will go to college and get a job. There's nothing more miserable than having your parents dictate your life. I was retarded for not going sooner.

Tell me about the last 6 years

>>84852101
>will go to college
good for you
>and get a job
LMAO, good luck with that

>>84852104
I literally have no memory of them. Just sleeping and playing video games I can't remember. I still have no idea how 2020 was 6 years ago.

This mindset has gotten me nowhere.

10x better off learning HVAC or a good paying skilled trades job than college now. Unless you're planning going to medical field , jesus man it's a fucking rough battle right now.
HVAC down here in Texas saw a company that will train you up and get you rolling on 30 an hour then later on 45+ after 1-2 years. forgot how long it took but it wasn't a grind. Honestly thinking about dipping out of the post office and go make a commitment towards it. I get paid around 29 currently. just aint enough for shit now.

Thanks, but no thanks. I regularly see dudes talking about making 100k a year from their college jobs. It can't be as impossible as people say. Perhaps I'll go to trades school afterwards as a backup, but I'll never do a trade as my main job unless I'm really desperate.

I am 26 and in college. We can do this, anon. Never too late.

>It can't be as impossible as people say.
I have 4 STEM degrees and never a job above what a highschooler could do

Most likely a location or network issue.
>>
>>84852147
you are on /r9k/, you are going to have network issues
>>
>>84852101
Good luck out there, anon. o7

>>84852147
op is 25, no degree, no job, presumably a need up to this point. you don't end up in that situation if socializing wasn't an issue, and that is what networkling boils down to. as >>84852150 stated, do not count on networking.
>>
>>84852255
>a need
a neet*

>>84852255
Social anxiety is just another hurdle to overcome.

At 25 it is too late, you will never blossom into a charismatic brown-noser. Improving your life is a good thing, but you need to choose a realistic avenue.
>>
>>84852423
Who decides when it is too late?
>>
>>84852438
failures who want to drag you down to their level
don't give up, if you areOP, or whoever you are.
its only too late when you are dead or dying

>>84852438
nature via: the cold hard reality of personality crystallisation, physical signs of age, the ability for normal people to sense when someone is "off", the parents you were born and the genetic misfire that created you in such a way you were able to reach this point. Go to the trades.

>>84852101
so you're 25 without a job? what was your last job, if any? any degrees/certs or are you just now starting?

i'm going to be honest: i don't see how that's going to work out so well for you. starting late is fine, but damn, if you're no job and no training at 25 you're at a massive disadvantage. you're going to have to come up with something, but it's a really tough situation to be in. it's hard enough living alone for me, and i've been working since i was 16 and changed career paths at 20. been a machinist for the past 4 years, which frankly would be a good route for you since it's going to be a 1 year operator's program. go be a button pusher for $15, $20 an hour depending on your location and then go back to school for programming once you have experience if you really want the desk job. a good machinist who can do setups and actually do shit can make upwards of 70k a year, programmers hit closer to 100k (again, depending on location).
