Is your job /fa/? NEET can also count if you're at least using your welfare money on /fa/ stuff.
geriatric aesthetic i hate
is working in a call center effay? because i do>inb4 jeetwe're probably the only local all white call center left in the country imo, who knows how long it'll stay operating here though
>>18543575If he put in purple LED rods it would look like an e-boy photoshoot set.
/fa/ in the 2010’s would say something like goth ninja fashion model, working at a beer garden, starving artist with a trust fund, or hosting a punk venue in a warehouse.Today, that’s all irrelevant, if not dated. The world doesn’t operate organically like that anymore. The only thing that matters in the current spotlight is TikTok influencer making shitty hyperpop and looking like a pop idol.
I’m a financial analyst for research facility at a big university. It’s not remotely /fa/. I fucking hate it, but it’s so cushy I never leave.
work from home is the only effay kind of job. all other jobs in 2025 are extremely fucking gay
it could be and it should be, but everyone has awful fashion sense now.
>>18543573I'm unemployed and live off income from my investments.
former NEET current AD, idk feels ok its nice to have money i guess and going to the office is ok too
>>18543573I'm a day traderIt's not effay whatsoever and I keep it to myself socially, coyly dismissing questions about where my money comes from, which probably leads people to think I'm a trust fund kid or a retarded NEET but either one is preferable.What is /fa/ is being able to live wherever I please (Taiwan rn for a language program, but I have a long-term rental in Bali I go back to occasionally)
Real Estate Marketing (photography and floorplans). It's really mixed; sometimes I photograph multi-million dollar mansions and then other days I end up photographing absolute shitholes that would make Detroit blush. I go wherever real estate companies need photos and even shit shacks get photos.Some madman of an agent had me photograph a house with our most premium package and there were holes in the floor and racoons obviously living in one of the bedrooms. It's a weird world to work in since I'm either talking to the richest people in the country or photographing hoarder houses similar to Chris Chan.
>>18544086Any reccs? Seems like it's exclusively for people that are highly skilled or it's because call centers don't want to maintain an office.>>18544546I'd day trade but tax seems like a nightmare for that shit. Though I suppose if you're paying an accountant to do your taxes, then that's one less headache to worry about. I put a few grand down on NVDA when it was $94 and it's now $179 last I checked but I haven't sold yet, but I hear it might go higher anyway so idk.
i wait tables at one of those restaurants where the cheapest steak is $70 and we have stuff that is $40/ounce. it's a fun gig
>>18544688How's the steak? Some of those places have steak that's about as good as the stuff you can do yourself at home.
>>18544693i say this without bs but in a town with a dozen steakhouses we have easily the #1/2 steaks in town. they're damn good
>>18544086I work from home and I hate it. I’ve gotten so lazy and my days are like groundhog dog. Everyday I just fuck around.
>>18544680Day trading is a meme. There are a small handful of people that manage to generate a decent to good income from day trading, but mostly not. t. spent 4 years at a prop firm and hedge fund
>>18545063Yeah I figured it would be down to just how much you trade daily.
>>18543573it doesnt matter because you never have it
>>18545509ESL?
>>18544680>Any reccs? heres how to achieve comfy wfh:>youll want to go to college. big state school is fine, dont go into debt, dont fall for target school memes. >major in math, finance, business, econ, or some kind of engineering thats not that useful (like ME)>attend alumni events your final semester or quarter at college. go to a few. meet alumni>acquire a job via alumni at some sort of large company. contractors are great., aerospace, chips, anything with a really long supply chain>do this from the office for a couple of years until you know people>eventually get offered any sort of "project" job elsewhere>negotiate WFH>become basically unemployed but with a paycheckpitfalls to look out for>becoming too important: dont be that guy, youll be forced into office if you matter too much or are too hands on. leave that to the nerds>not having any joie de vivre (see: >>18545061); joie is neccesary to wfh>do not under any circumstances move to the bay area. they have fake offices there but theyll still make you show up, probably even take off your shoes at the office. its weird
I'm recovering from previously undiagnosed brain problems that have inhibited my ability to have success, so I work part time in a Taiwanese bubble tea shop.
>>18545512Why do you think that's a dig you dumb nigger? It's still one more language than you fluently speak.Working from home here and unless you are in your early 20s it's not cool because you become a shut in and also don't have the time/energy to make your home into a cool place to be in.
>>18545524Maybe I'll pass on the work from home then. I think at this point I'd just like a job where I'm not still getting calls or emails well into the night to check something is correct, it's driving me crazy. I shouldn't have to login and check over files at 10pm when that shit can wait until morning.
>>18544680nothing wrong with taking profit, a loss feels worse than FOMO, though that's not day trading, I pay an accountant basically to save me time but my current CoL is so low I save 80%+ of my earnings so it's never a problem, you could immediately buy treasury bonds each time you take profit if you're worried though>>18545063most people are incompetent and unironically borderline retarded, trade intraday momentum with calls/puts and scalp pullbacks/reversals with risk management, institutional trading is very different and people that trade prop accounts are usually degenerates, I have plenty of friends that day trade successfully as a career (the only ones I'll talk about it with irl)
>>18545535Are bonds worth getting into currently? I thought they were being sold off in record numbers
>>18545542I don't know, I don't fuck with bonds as a profit taking measure, I was just suggesting using them to store value so you aren't touching a certain fixed percentage of your profit (that you don't need and don't want to risk losing a % of in case of market downturn) if you're afraid of owing too much in taxes at the end of the year, I've never needed to do so but it's been recommended to me as more of a discipline-type endeavor
>>18545524heres how to achieve comfy wfh:>utilize your network to find someone with wfh then use him as a stepping stone to get a wfh in his company as well>drop out of college >enjoy comfy groundhog day for the rest of your life
>>18545524Nobody has joie de vivre when they live in a normal house or apartment and have to stick close to their laptop to Teams chat “yes boss” until 5 or 6 pm.
>>18544678looks like expensive old folks home
semen farter for international businessmen in an izakaya in Ginza
>>18545535Fraud detected >>18545542Just TIPS to balance risk
>>18546002Aren't you glad it's Friday? Aren't you glad you won't have to go into the office and get to relax at home for the next two days?
>>18545512no just a typo because i cant see what i typei need glasses but haven't found any effay ones yet so i just walk around half blind to not ruin my fit
>>18543573Nice jailcell!
are there any /fa/ careers that don't require a lot of education or connections? pretty much every job that requires you to dress up are usually ones that require prestige, lawyer, banker, etc
>>18546469I haven’t gone into the office in years.
>>18546711Blue collar can be really /fa/. I really admire the fashion of my blue collar friend. He’s a boilermaker in the NYC area and his fashion is typically trad/ivy/prep with incorporations of workwear. For example, he’ll wear an OCBD with jeans loafers and then throw on a Carharrt Detroit over top. He gets so many compliments and attention when we go out. He’s also tall and handsome which helps.
>>18546711>job that requires you to dress upthats not what this thread is aboutits about jobs that ARE effay not jobs where YOU are effay while working them
i work the least effay job ever which is registered nurse. i almost exclusively dress in cheap athleisure shit because im constantly exhausted.
