I want to move to France. I am thinking about booking a flight NEXT WEEK because it's only like $140
can any french anons tell me about the viability of getting an under the table cash job in a restaurant or something?

I asked chatGPT about the prospect of getting a visa for working and it said it's basically impossible lmao. it will take months while I'll need to get a job asap.

>inb4 this is a stupid idea
I am a total fucking loser that works in retail in the USA. I have no money. making dumb plans is better than living a shit life
>>
>>2830117
Why can't you work at a restaurant in the US?
>>
>>2830119
I fucking hate this country so much anon it pisses me off staying here

this country ruined my life and stole all the money I've ever had. it is so fucking hard to live here, there is no beauty, there is no empathy for the average man's condition

the biggest issue is the DRIVING... the obsession with cars, having to fucking drive to get groceries or something small to eat... I hate it so much...
>>
>>2830122
God stfu with your anti Americanism whining
>>
>>2830124
alright sure, maybe you are right. at the end of the day, totally ignoring the crimes this shit tier country commited towards me, I want to live in france for a bit. is that ok
>>
>>2830126
Brother it’s WORSE in France right now. Illegal immigration has absolutely raped France, along with their perception of foreigners.

Please, invest in yourself and try to improve your situation here. Go to college, learn a trade, get a skill. If you’re a giant fucking loser here you’ll still be a giant fucking loser in France. You’ll just be a giant fucking loser surrounded by Africans and Arabs.

How did you find a flight from the US to France for $140?
>an under the table cash job in a restaurant or something?
Look for something like wwoof/helpx/workaway to have something lined up before you arrive. Like everyone else is saying, they already have plenty of illegals, and the difference is those guys usually speak some French and know where to look for work or are just straight up criminals
>>
>>2830137
dude that's just the cost of a ticket to france now lol. it's fucking cheap
>>

>wwoof/helpx/workaway
thanks im looking into these now

Anti-American in 2025 usually means you are a Troon, is this correct OP? If you don’t like the current administration just wait 3 years Kek. But honestly if you are too retarted to think about your own future why bother you would probably be doing your fellow Americans a favour. Get a trade is the best advice that’s been given to you in this thread. Not enough beauty? Move to somewhere beautiful there are heaps of places in the USA, don’t want to get a car? Move to a larger city in the USA. You are stuck with what you got fucking deal with it, and if you really want to move do it the correct way or you will just be found out as Europe is starting to switch on to people like you. I wouldn’t want you in my country as it would just be a burden they only want skilled individuals. Sort yourself out.

>if you can't acknowledge the very glaring issues that the USA has you must be a troon
>>
>>2830142
Thats usually how it is in this day and age, also most other countries have the same problems except maybe Switzerland? France is about to financially collapse, you need to get some skills before you even consider moving because you will just be found out with no visa then you will probably KYS as your new life overseas will be shortly lived. Get some skills so you are hireable and try again.

>stole all the money I've ever had
Bro you think the US steals your money, check how much people make on average and how much goes to taxes in France. You are much better off, even working in retail, in the US. By the way, moving to a different country won't make you feel any better about yourself.
>the obsession with cars, having to fucking drive to get groceries or something small to eat
Any city has public transport

OP is trying to become an illegal immigrant.

Yeah kid, it's okay now go back to /r9k/ and jerk it to autism frogs.

Just move to another place in the US dummy, you're not going to get a job in France.

Maybe technically, but lots of times it's not even useable if you tried, like the busses will come once an hour or go nowhere close to where you need. It's not worth trying to avoid driving in the US if you don't live in like 3 major cities or a cozy college town

What's the worst they can do, deport you and ban you from the EU? I met an African dude in the train station heading to a remote Polish village to work. He got off at the wrong station, which was 9 km from the village instead of 3 km like the closest station. The next train, the connection I was waiting for, was delayed by 3 hours. There was a kebab shop open on a Sunday and some sweat-glazed, unshaven alcoholic Indian dude working behind the counter. Surprise it didn't give me the shits.

Lay off all the melodramatic USA shit. Don't talk about your country. Nobody in France will want to hear your opinion about their country either.

In my town two brothers, 11 and 14 years old, have extremely high-powered ebikes that can go 45 mph even uphill. They go five miles to and from town every day, riding with traffic. No taxes, no registration, no insurance, no gasoline, no bullshit.

I can smell the fatness in this post
Two miles is walking distance

Anon, I highly discourage you from doing this. You have no money, no plan, and I assume no knowledge of French nor France. Being caught overstaying your visa or working illegally as a westerner from a good country can actually have consequences affecting your future ability to visit and stay in the EU.
Take a year to learn some French and save 7500€ for a student visa.
Check out Campusfrance.org
For English language programs: https://taughtie.campusfrance.org/
Tuition is basically free for everyone the world over save that you have to buy student full health insurance for like 700€ a year.
Start looking up scholarships on that website too. Maybe you can scramble and find a study slot and funding for next year.
Best of luck regardless of what you do. I might be back if you have questions, but no promises.
Side note: French student cafeterias are surprisingly respectable for being only a few euros a meal. Student housing can be only a few hundred euros a month.

it works for niggers why wouldn't it work for anon
you're being a pussy bitch

America can be pretty damned heartless, but being a whiny baby won’t help you. Make a plan and stick to it. Consider getting a drivers license while in the US if you haven’t because it’s valuable to have in France due to it costing so much there to get one, ie can help you find a job. Learn to drive stick.
>>2830126
Anon, you come off as bitter and unstable.
>>2830365
This. If you live in Europe, get ready to walk a fuck ton. I walk for 2+ hours several times a week basically just for leisure. For some, that’s basically a life requirement.
>>
>>2830392
Why does it feel like you are the OP?
It could, but the potential for dire consequences is much higher. Flying in with an American passport is different. They can actually coordinate with your rich country’s authorities to remove you and keep you out. There won’t be some NGO rushing to defend you either.
OP can do whatever he chooses but there are less risky paths which also increase likelihood of greater success.
