>born intelligent and did well at school >Strike 1: went to my nearest university instead of a prestigious one (now people see me as stupid by default)>Strike 2: Picked a random degree I had no interest in (didn't go into the field after graduating and I have no technical skills)>Strike 3: Too ugly to have any friends during university (no friends after university, no girlfriend ever, will live and die alone)>Strike 4: Too spergy and ugly to pass any of the job interviews I had for high paid internships and jobs after graduation (high school never ends and I'll never fit in with normies)And now I am over 30 and work a boring paper pusher remote job.That's it. That's life. Nothing will happen now.
>>61001805Man up. Get up. Regroup. Recalibrate. Pull your bootstraps. Seize the moment. Drink a green shake.
>>61001805Hey me too, 4.0 at a state college 5 years ago and currently working a job that doesn't even need a high school education to be successful. I guess I can save up and buy oil wells around me but that's about the only thing my degree would help me with outside of a job that no one will hire me for. Pretty comfy being a loner in a woods though.
>>61001805Literally me except I didnt even go to school and now I make 30k a year when I'm 30 yeard old.Decided to go full retard and sign up for a soft engineering degree when the field is taking is dying breaths. It's so over it's not even funny.
>>61001805If you had gone to a prestigious school, your sperging would be seen as cute, part and parcel of being a learned man. Literally no one likes an awkward wagie.t. High income awkward nerd who lucked into a loving wife and family
>>61001805>implying wageslaving can be funNo such thing fun wageslaving.>remote job.And this is good thing.
>>61001805Become a troon, get a boobjob and let other men fuck your butthole. I have no idea how this will help you but good luck
>>61001845This is me but I have 50k LINK so I still have some hope.
>>61001805You know anon, the first step to doing anything worth doing is to give a shit, so if you can find down in the depths of your crusty old soul just one ounce of a shit to give, you might just do something worth doing yet
>>61001805I failed at life>Born intelligent and did well at school>Went to a prestigious uni for a STEM degree>70+ hour work weeks, no vacations, no breaks, no weekends>All of my hobbies lost, 5-6 hours of sleep is the best I can hope for>40% passrate courses, professors with superiority complexes get off to fucking over students and the lower the pass rates the better the course is considered to be>All ambitions, aspirations, interests, will to live permanently erased>Already aged 60 years mentally before even starting workThis is soul crushing. Yes, I can get a high paying job now, but it's just going to be the same shit all over again. What's the point of another decade of misery and suffering just so I can maybe start living a life after, if I am lucky? The only lasting trait I have acquired is suicidal ideations.
I work with people who went to Harvard and I dropped out of highschool personally. I don’t think college is all it’s cracked up to be in the 21st century, which is probably why businesses are finding firing the 6 figure college grads and replacing them with outsourced workers so easy.
>>61001805How thenl hell did you get the paper pusher job?
>>61001805>born intelligent and did well at school>strike 1: went to the crummy university nearby>strike 2: self confidence so low I went for the most basic but still employable degree (business, I could've gone for CS or engineering looking back now)>strike 3: was only able to get jobs that don't require a college degree>strike 4: too ugly that I get filtered at interviews unless it's a crummy job where they are desperate>strike 5: something about me that the job application algorithm hates and almost always just ignores meAnd now I am over 30. Unemployed, no wife, and no kids. I am trying to find success a different way to escape going back into the wagecage.

>>61001849Weird pajeet post
>>61002100¿A different way‽
> born intelligent and did well at schoolThis is ironically a death sentence for many. This is because many will bully you (even if not up front, they'll talk shit behind your back instead) for being a "nerd", and this will deprive you of essential connections you'll need to get into the prestigious jobs after school. You wanna know how all of those private equity firms popped up? A lot of them came from literal frats at Ivy Leagues, BlackRock is the most famous example of this.tldr; Street smarts make you money, book smarts don't.
>>61002173Stocks. I'm doing okay at it. I also make video games.
>>61002199Oh. I thought you meant armed robbery. That's what I'm banking on.
>>61001805I mean, this is a valid cope post, I don't even have any gripes with it.This is the standard mediocre-pointless life toolkit. #1 and #2 is absolutely the typical starter guide.>>61001849This - "that quirky surgeon that accidentally made one leg an inch taller than the other, that idiosyncratic investment banker that just says 2 words"
BROTHER, WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING BY POSTING THIS THREAD ON HERE FOR THE UPTEENTH TIME?
>>61001805any tips on getting a remote job with no skills
>>61001805That's exactly me. I pooled all my 5 or so years of post graduation savings and went all on crypto and 200x'd it and am retired now at 35. But I'm still a friendless depressed loser with no life prospects. I could spend the money to 'go places' and 'do things' and 'meet people' but I can't see much of a point to any of it.
>>61001805>>61001845>Didn't ever take school seriously>Did some networking academy shit for 2 years in college>Got an entry level job and quit it during covid bc crypto monies were good>Missed out on life changing money twice because held too long or didn't sellled>Now 30 still entry level, getting past entry level is hard as fuck because gatekeeping >in debt, at home and no cryptoit's fucking over, I could marry one of these 5's that have their own place but I'd rather kms.
>>61001805>In the 80th percentile according to standardised testing >Strike 1 - Went into a degree for a cybersecurity that was supposedly in demand but no one wanted to train juniors. The degree is basically worthless too since only certifications were recognised.>Strike 2 - Did extra curriculars and an internship and I decided I'd rather graduate than switch to a software engineering degree>Strike 3 - Graduated during covid when there was a hiring freeze on a lot of graduate jobs, and was competing against previous year graduates who were laid off.>Strike 4 - Did 6 months a Jeetsoftware company hoping that I would get a foot in the door but burnt out because Jeet culture is horrific. Which is a permanent stain on my resume.>Strike 5 - Quit my mindnumbing job and moved to the big city and haven't found employment here in 1.5 years, I've just been on neetbux I haven't done anything else.>Strike 6 - It's going to happen soon. Uni / trade school enrollments will start in the new year or so. I have to decide if I quit being a software developer and what the fuck to do next.
>>61002247I am good at my job, and can hold a conversation about pretty much every thing. I just don't like talking and get anxious about talking/chatting, even on the Internet.
>>61001805bron smart, tested high % all the time in school, got bored, went to college for 7 years (4 different schools), went to prison for a year, got a job in a factory doing push button welding. Stayed there for 21 years. had a few work chicks (5-7s) saved a million in my 401k and retired. Now i do whatever most days.own my house and a beater suburban
>be me>go to uni for piano>get kicked out (wouldnt go to class for the theory shit)>go to uni for philosophy, spend 11 years getting a degree (wouldnt go to class so i got kicked out twice before finishing)>now im 31 and have nothingThoughts?
Thought I responded to this thread. Anyway I was supposed to work overtime at my main job and 6 hours of not-overtime at my altjob but I only did 2 hours of work today. I want a wfh job. Any wfh job.
>>61001805> Born poor in Europe> barely went to school > Instead of messing around at university, I studied on my own while working. > able to change jobs multiple times and earn a lot of money > Now working remotely in a high-skilled job, I have a house, a car, and a woman.
>>61002683Get some hard skills lazy pile of shit
>>61002683OF
>>61003558why wouldnt u go to class for a class you are paying a shitload of money for huh anon?
>>61001849> loving wife HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAAHThere it is.
I keep telling you bitchass niggers to draw Goetic demon sigils and ask for help. Lucifer, Belial or Bune will help. Helped me outOr just try a money angel
>>61003793The classes were retarded and booting and my parents were paying for it
>>61001805Fuck dude you're too young to be thinking like that. You're in good shape having a job right now so you can:1) Fucking workout every day2) Start a side hustle business3) Study investingI am 50. These will be the most productive years of your life, but you have to be OCD relentless about the above 3 things.
>>61001845I live in Scandinavia, so I can't speak for the US, but there's plenty of big non-tech companies (like big Pharma or other public companies) that hire absolute midwits with non-stem degrees (or bullshit ones that don't involve actually building anything useful) with barely a year or two of bullshit "experience" doing something vaguely tangentially related. And they're getting paid 90k+ USD equivalent. They just talk a lot and push breaking code changes for years until they get promoted to $110k+. They are dumb in most aspects of life. And I'm talking about people that immigrated here, with no connections.Things that my former coworkers making $100k+ have struggled with in 2024-2025:>running a .sh script I've made because they did not understand they have to be in the directory to run them. Yes, they can barely grasp the concept of a file system if its not a UI. Using cd was hard for them.>committing stuff in git that doesn't need to be in the repo (i.e. binaries). Forgetting to pull/rebase before pushing.>not understanding that not everything can be parallelized. They would branch out from main after I'm already a few days into working on a feature. Instead of waiting an extra day for me to finish so they can pull from the latest version, they just start building and cause a bunch of conflicts.>not understanding if they have or haven't activated the Python virtual environment, or how it works, or why you would even need them.I could go on, but I've thought many times that just giving a shit is half the battle. Don't get discouraged, anon.
why are zoomers like this >>61002683 lmao
>>61001805How do I get a remote paper pusher job you mother fucker
>>61004172Redpill me on this. Does it involve ritualistic anal rape, financially speaking?
>>61001805>Strike 1: went to my nearest university instead of a prestigious one (now people see me as stupid by default)>Hit 2: Picked the degree i knew i had talent.>Hit 3: Handsome strong and with a strong manly voice. Loved by my team and friend circle, natural charisma.>Hit 4: I'm top income earner in my country, i put minimal effort into my job and most my bosses belive i'm some kind of gennius because i'm not only extremely technically competent but a natural leader that can have shit done.Still no GF, still unhappy.
>>61001915I am you but further down that career path, so take this as a warning.>10 years into career>50+ hour work weeks>Have 3 weeks PTO but it’s discouraged to take it>No time for any interests>Even on weekends can only think about work because of how much it dominates my life>Health failing>Gaining weight>Getting short with my wife all the time>Still haven’t made itChange careers now if you can. No amount of money is worth this. I hate my life. I’m so tired all the time. I’m so angry all the time. My life isn’t enjoyable at all ever.If I could go back in time I’d be a mailman or something simple like that.
