I just want to get some money coming in to invest and retire early with a house.
>>61316250It's over dude. You already fucked your life by wasting the last 7 years. Get lucky with crypto or kill yourself
>>61316250No idea I have work experience and a degree and dont even get called for interviews. Been unemployed for a long time. I might be able to if I simply settled for retail but iirc even years ago I was mostly ignored. My only advice is simply applying online for retail jobs and if desperate enough those staffing firms. Also call centers seem desperate. Avoid places that process food in warehouse/warehouse like environments. >about wearing my best suit to the shops with resumes in hand and demanding to meet the managerKek
>>61316250I have a job and am looking forward to quiting and becoming a NEET once again.
>>61316298same have degree 3 years experience and now i can never get another IT job. Not even 40k a year helldesk shit responds to me.I tried applying to retail like best buy food lion and even they ignore me it is so over
>>61316281I had a feeling.>>61316298I apply online to every retail job I find. If they don't ask for two years experience in a retail role, they don't even get back to me just to let me know I was unsuccessful.
>>61316281Also I didn't waste the last seven years. I spent 18-20 trying to find work while studying, a year or two locked down and it was only the last three or so years that was wasted being a NEET.
>>61316250>until I figure out what to do with the rest of my lifebuddy what the fuck have you been doing the past 5 years. >can't get a job because I don't have work experience because I can't get a job99% of people get jobs you fucking retard, jobs are not uncommon, people with special needs get jobs. your issue is your lazy. get off your ass and do literally anything. youre completely fucked btw, being this behind. forget making it, youll be lucky to retire before 60
>>61316740>buddy what the fuck have you been doing the past 5 years.Dodging 'rona, helping take care of my grandmother before she died this year, playing vidya, rotting in my bedroom.>your issue is your lazy.I'm applying for every job I can, nothing to do with laziness.
>>61316817youre not doing enough
>>6131625028 here, it does not get better, but you still have plenty of time to do something. I dropped out of uni at 24 in the last year, if i was 25 i'd go back in a heartbeat. Find out what interests you and go balls to the wall studying it with the aim of monetizing it somehow(youtube, tiktok etc), if you fail then at least you had fun in the process or come out of it a better person. If you have any interest in artisanal crafts (woodwork, watchmaking, cobbler), then it's not too late to sign up for education and find an old mentor. I'm technically still in the same boat as you, but a favorable birth, looks and family connections might land me training for a job with great pay + benefits. I'm only going this route soul because i got somehow found a good gf who wants a family etc. If i didn't, i'd just embrace neetism and read or game all day.
>>61316250incoming crash prediction incoming.
>>61316250Just lie on your resume like the rest of us. HR roasties wont do shit
>>61316250Why would you be the one to be able to when 90% of Americans cannot do it?
>>61316250Put on a suit and go to a store and start sweeping floors. They will offer you a job or call the cops.
>>61316250look up warehouse jobswork there a bit, they'll hire literally anyone with a pulseand then after a year get a forklift certification enjoy making 50k a year doing a fun job
>>61316250Don't listen to the uncs ITT. NEET for as long as you can. I regret working every single second of every day.
>>61316250do what all the other losers do, teach englishyou can do a piss easy online course if the school wants it but many are just desperate to have a non pedo native speaker to just babysit rich kids for an hour or soif you end up teaching adults you'll probably fuck a few of themyou now owe me $50 for fixing your life
>>61316963NEET is hell if you are poor dude i rather work some low stress wagie job that pays like 60k
>>61316991This is the hallmark of an NPC. If you can't find fulfillment without COOONSUMING then you were always destined to be a wagie.
>>61316991I'd rather have that too.t. wagie making 50k, 1 hour+ commute
>>61317069oh wise chudda, teach us of your ways
>>61316250if you go back to studying you should be able to just say I was in school from x time to y time. If you dropped out they may ask if you apply for internships. See if you can transfer schools, but they could still ask for transcripts from your old school...
The answer is dishwashing but if you live in the USA you might be fucked if you mostly have chains around you
>>61316250To escape your current cycle and start earning money, the key is to leverage your strengths and interests while working around challenges such as lack of work experience and social difficulties in job searching. Here are actionable steps you can take:Identify Your Strengths and Interests: Write down what skills you excel at and enjoy doing. This helps focus your job search on roles that fit you and feel achievable.Look for Accessible Job Opportunities: Target companies or roles accessible to you via public transport or within reasonable distance. This reduces logistical stress and can improve consistency.Leverage Personal Networks: Over half of jobs are found through networking. Reach out to family, friends, or acquaintances to let them know you're looking for work. They might connect you to hidden opportunities.Create a Strong Resume Including Non-Paid Work: Include internships, volunteer work, or personal projects to build a resume that shows capability despite lack of formal job experience.Consider Job Development Programs for Autistic Individuals: Some programs specialize in customized job placements with support that has proven successful even for first-time job seekers.Apply to Entry-Level Jobs and Internships: Be proactive with applications, submit them early, and show enthusiasm, as this improves your chances.Seek Mentorship or Support Groups: Connecting with others with similar experiences or job mentors can provide guidance and encouragement.Consider Temporary or Part-Time Jobs for Initial Income: Even if not your ideal, these can provide work experience and financial independence to build from.By combining these approaches, you can break the cycle of needing work experience to get a job by gaining initial relevant experience and support. This will start to bring income in, which you can then save and invest toward early retirement and home ownership as you desire.It's understandable to feel burn
>>61316909I'm autistic, I don't know how to lie.>>61316931>look up warehouse jobs>they're all looking for at least a year of warehousing experience

>>61316250nobody's "burnt out" at 25. quit bein lazy
>>61316817>helping take care of my grandmother before she diedThat's a point to start from. Ask around who needs help to care for elderly relatives, even if it's for a few hours under the table work. Might even find some place that is desperate for nurses and offers to train you while you work?

It doesn't fucking matter what degree you have, what you've built, what you've done. It does not fucking matter. I ticked every single box, I did everything they told me to do. They said "Employers will be banging your door down to hire you, Anon!" You know which box I couldn't tick (because of COVID kike lockdowns)? Networking with other people who can find me a job. Indeed, degrees, experience, certifications -- None of that fucking matters if you are a straight white male US veteran. If you don't meet someone else who can help you get your foot in the door, you will never fucking make it.

>>61316250i was in your situation until a few weeks ago where i got a warehouse job because my sister worked there, and she only worked there because her friend worked there, who also only worked there because her friend knew the manager. there's hundreds, maybe thousands of applicants who would've been better suited to the job requirements but they chose some clueless neet, lmao.it's nepotism all the way down, and if you don't know anybody who can hook you up with a job then it's literally over. i'm talking 1000 applications leading to nothing sort of over. it's never been this bad and it's only going to get worse. my only advice to you is to abandon your moral code. these normies are fucking ruthless animals who at best don't care about you and at worst actively work to bring about your downfall. lie through your teeth at every opportunity to get better treatment. forge your entire resume if you need to. jobs aren't found though hard work, never let those gaslighting normies get to you.
>>61316250Go work in a factory. Pay is decent enough. Find one with good benefits and no layoffs. Live beneath your means. Work a few hours of overtime every week. Save up and you'll have a decent account before long.

>>61316250You're gonna struggle. I have 10 year working in offices and I recently quit to travel Japan for six months. When I came back in May this year I really struggled to get another job, despite having a decade of experience in offices. They really hated the gap on my CV. I ended up stuck in a warehouse job until recently, I was able to get another office job. Its pretty much taught me never to travel again for a long term period. It just fucks your career up.
>>61320558More like they dont like the fact your capable of being free instead of a slave. I wish I was rich
>>61320595>More like they dont like the fact your capable of being free instead of a slave.Yeah pretty much. They hate the idea that you might repeat it again and travel, instead of being stuck in work day in and day out. One good thing about finding new employment again though is that I can now lie on my CV and just pretend the travel didn't happen. I'll just add six months onto my previous job and no one will ever find out.

No one will give you a job if they don’t know you, or you have the exact demonstrable skills they are hiring for. The economy right now is not willing to pay to train people. Thats the only difference to pre-COVID times you need to keep in mind.First of all get your degree. Second of all be able to do the work before you get the job. If your degree is too general, then take a loan and get a specialized hands-on masters.Right now the AI optimism is strong so you need to pivot into what will never be automated by AI, not because of inability but because it’s too risky to leave to an agentic orchestration. That means anything operations, infrastructure or security. Security especially is understaffed because nu-CS-babbys are stuck in the “remote dev job” paradigm, and haven’t discovered security as a field beyond just gay-IT work. Or if they realize this, they think to become a red team/ethical hacking type which is oversaturated.My final line of advice is ignore the blackpilling losers ITT. I did didn’t work for years while doing crypto, then got a job in security because I literally could do the job and messaged the people hiring me directly.
>>61318523>Just join the chinks while they tank even fucking harder because they lied about a third of their population and most of the economic growth for the last 50 yearsNot the brightest bulb in the shed, are you?
>>61316250Just door dash or work at McDonald's and stack as much monero as you can. Work on your personality and be more social.
>>61316250OP, do this method: Join US Air Force (you'll be fine, drill instructors literally aren't even allowed to touch you without permission in basic training) > Go to tons of medical and psych appts > Claim VA disability for as many issues as possible> Enjoy a free $4k per month with no income cap whatsoever, OR enjoy a free $4k per month plus $1600 SSDI (if you're ok with a $1600/mo income cap).If you do the latter method, congrats you're now retired for life and getting $66k a year for free. Plus even if you don't get normal 100% VA disability you can apply for TDIU which is basically exactly the same (free $4k a month) but with an income cap like SSDI's income cap.Not doing this method was by far the absolute dumbest mistake of my life. I could have been retired at age 20 and just enjoyed life. It's by far the best, most consistent way to escape the rat race permanently. If I had a son I'd explain this method to him and have AI write a full guide on it. Plus as a vet you get a laundry list of extra benefits anyway including free healthcare, dental, college, low interest loans, waived property taxes, discounts, etc.And if for whatever reason you don't end up getting VA disability, you still got PAID thousands of dollars to go through basic training and tech school. They PAID you to train you on a job and give you a tech certificate.
>>61316298apply for bar/nightclub work, hospitality roles in general always need people and are usually unskilled labour that is trained on the job. AI also can't touch you.>>61316250Volunteer at animal sanctuaries or homeless shelters etc, you will do XYZ tasks and build up a skill-list. Hell you can practice handyman+gardening stuff and build up a business from that once you figure out how to make your home garden look good via basic horticulture and colour-theory.You're stuck in a defeatist mindset because you want to be an office wagey, which is ideal as you're less likely to get long-term debilitating conditions from manual labour, but its not easy to get into.

>>61317541And change his name to hector. He'll get more opportunities in the industry.
>>61318332I recommend this to everyone without a clear path to a career. I did this in my mid 20's when i was a fuckup stoner and it is a great way to figure out what you DON'T want to do. I was getting kicked out and needed cash so i signed up at 3 employment agencys at once. Was very upfront about only having retail exp and wanting to try something else. Ended up doing ~20 different jobs from office work, data entry, delivery, construction, packaging, transportation, hotels, mixing paint, retail, restaurant, landscaping, snow removal and warehouse picking. It completely removed the fear of not having a job because I will just get a different one next week. Always try to make connections to work outside of the staffing companies though, they steal your $$. Protip: if show up in khaki's, a button down shirt, dress shoes, a clean haircut, and a with well formatted resume in a folder you will not be drug tested.
>>61316250At least just get a job at costco and stack as much money as possible for the next year. You will be much better off a year from now. Even if you’re in a similar spot, you’ll have $10k in the bank.
95% of people need to work.
>>61325352I am down 10k on eth
IT is fucked anyways dude, I did that route and I got a job last year. Was pumped and ready to work hard but then I realized boomers just roadblock and gatekeep you if you don’t have the credentials. It’s super lame and boring, I just go to work and sit around most days. Getting a check but also my spirit withers from sheer boredom. What you need to do is clownmax and retardmax. Start uploading bullshit to the internet for everyone to see, literally anything it doesn’t matter. Figure out content that works but just do anything until something catches on. Flood the shitty internet with bullshit. Don’t even think too hard about it just do it.
>>61325422>Was pumped and ready to work hard but then I realized boomers just roadblock and gatekeep you if you don’t have the credentials.Sorry bro but how else are retards who earned their online MBA going to buy Porsche Cayennes for their trophy wives? You're delusional if you think that they'd promote a company man into a managerial role.
imo the best job for real depth grovelling autists at the end of their rope is stocking shelves at night.
