So I just went from being a neet to starting as a junior on a startup while writing my master thesis at the same time.

Does this happen in your cunt?
>>
>>217850992
I never been a neet. Its not like I love working so much, but my life is empty so I have nothing else to do.
>>
You can't be a NEET and be working on a master's lol
>>
>>217850992
Yeah I worked full time as a developer while writing my masters. Also did the same while doing a PhD.
>>
>>217851070
Isn't PhD paid and a contract? How do you have double contracts?

Hell no - I dropped out of the 10th grade — which gives me precisely the same formal qualifications as dropping out of the 1st grade.

I'd need an additional three years of GYMNASIUM (...no, it's not a rancid, large room or building with equipment for sports, exercise... Us /skandi/s know), to get a job cleaning toilets at Aldi.

35, living with mom.

It's fine. It's whatever...
>>
>>217851123
Yes it is
Nothing in the contract says you can’t have two jobs
>>
>startup
whats the point it's just gonna fail anyway get a real job
>>
>>217851295
So you get paid like 2 times usual salary? And you handle it with no issue? Aren't they schedule conflicting a lot?
>>
>>217851617
I didn't start the development job right away, it was the last year of my PhD contract and I realised I wouldn't have had enough publications to complete on that time anyway so I got a development job for the last year of the PhD as there simply wasn't a lot of activities going on anyway. Not a lot of scheduling conflicts desu, a PhD is extremely solitary work and most of my lab time was in the evenings anyway so I just did a normal developer job in the day and then PhD work at night.


And then I completed the PhD some years on overtime and doing publications and stuff on my own private time. But yes, the year I had overlapping contracts I got double paid, although the PhD salary is really shit so it wasn't much.

This video was so unbelievably depressing. I turn 30 soon, while my life isn't exactly like this I can relate to it. I have a degree and went to uni but my life after finishing school was fucked with drugs and depression. I spent half of the last 7 years working very low wage jobs or straight up being unemployed

How does a Dane even fail at life like this? You are lowering the HDI and undermining the social fabric.

>>217851767
PhD salary here isn't that bad, I heard some people get 35k SEK pre-tax. The weird part is that assistants get paid better.

Laziness - and main character syndrome.

Young anon was an affluenza-addled manchild who was coddled into a state of learned helplessness and granted disability on the grounds of some half-baked diagnosis - a lazy, entitled navel gazer who pissed my once bright future down the drain for temporary comfort. I was so used to having everything handed to me on a silver platter that I expected success to come to me automatically.
I was just gonna NEET for a year, or maybe two. And at the time that felt awesome, because I was receiving a $2,000 government pension while my former class mates who were still in school were working undignifying part time jobs for less. It's been 16 years and everyone my age has left me in the dust.

I have two cousins like this, but they have mothers who are basically enabling them as they are emotionally dependant on their sons, while their fathers are also enablers but in a materialistic way, they are workaholic but absent from the childrens life.

All they do is just chase model girls around and spend $$$ but nothing else and they've recently hit 30 years of age.

>>217852602
yeah, one of them had their mother and father die very close to each other and he didn't know what to do after that since he's now suddenly an adult...at 35 years old.

He ended up doing a lot of quick business decisions and basically losing like half a million dollars if not more.

It's basically children being pampered and never growing up
>>
>>217850992
Yes actually happens pretty often. Im doing a masters as well and hopefully starting one next year.
Software engineering/ML?

>He ended up doing a lot of quick business decisions and basically losing like half a million dollars if not more.
Never understood how some people even manage to squander that much
if I had that much I'd just mostly invest it in relatively safe stable investments
>>
>>217852879
A lifestyle of always chasing the new high and dopamine and being enabled by their parents to do that, I mean most people feel empty when being a neet so it makes sense.

When reality hits them they don't realize most things aren't quick reward chasing like chasing after some model woman.
