>Art isn't a career, you need to get a real jobWhat if I can't get a real one? Hundreds of applications and I'm either ghosted or they're attempting to scam me
>>7936972Just walk into the business and tell them you want a job in person, this shows you have communication skills. Don't leave until they give you a job, this shows commitment. Cause a scene and demand to see the boss, this shows you have motivation.If they don't let you see the boss, stick around, and shit yourself, this shows you have problem solving skills.If you sit behind a computer to get your jobs, your asking some faceless ai to judge your faceless self. Put yourself in a position to actually have them say no directly to you.
>>7936972I'm not joking, I actually need a job within 40 days or I'm homeless. I'm a retard and can't drive and have been fired from past retail jobs due to massive incompetence and sperging out.My current internship doesn't look like it will help at all
>>7936977Based go-getter
You need followers on social media for art to become a potential source of income and that can take years of consistent posting.
>>7936997Isn't it crazy we as a society allowed employers (non-government entities) to have this much control over peoples' lives, to the point of being directly under their whims to decide whether or not we are homeless? It's clearly such a terrible system that is currently incapable of placing people who are willing to work into profitable work. What's a better system? Who knows?Well, I'll say this. Draw what you want. Are you making money from your drawings right now?
>>7937241Yes, actually. I get comms occasionally. Currently doing an animation that is paying 150, and a series of drawings that'll pay 200But I gotta use that money for food
>>7937245See, that's already more profitable than participating in the dogshit job search process that would string you along for 5 rounds of interviews with no offer and not paying you for your time. Double down on whatever you're doing to get comms
>>7937241>system that is currently incapable of placing people who are willing to work>>7936997>I'm a retard and can't drive and have been fired from past retail jobs due to massive incompetence and sperging out.Doesn't sound like he's willing or able to work at all
>>7936997Join the military if you’re down to your final week. Homelessness wouldn’t be that bad if you had a car.
>>7936997work at a warehouse. they're always hiring.
>>7936997Art as a career is near impossible unless you don't mind drawing trannies on twitter or working at corporate shit studios that primarily make movies to sell merchandise, and they will use and abuse you before throwing you in the trash, if they are even willing to give you a job in the first place. This industry is fucked.>>7937241Yes, but I don't know what else would work to keep society functioning. But I wished we didn't make work such a huge aspect of our lives. At least that's how it feels here in the US. From what I hear, work culture is much more relaxed in other countries.
>>7936977>If they don't let you see the boss, stick around, and shit yourself, this shows you have problem solving skills.Thats for sure going to get you a job [spoiler]a visit to the psychiatrist[/spoiler]
>>7936972What 'real' job are you trying to get anyway?
