There's no thread for service/fast food workers specifically and I just wanna bitch

I work at this combination fast food place, kfc & taco bell, somehow it always feels like everyone who comes here hasn't ordered fast food in like 20 years because they somehow ask for shit from other restaurants or shit we haven't had since the 90s

Glad I left that shit industry. Front of house always had some baddies though

it's very easy to move up in the ranks if you take a risk once in a while and make friends. you wont get anywhere staying at fast food and complaining. you need to actually do the boomer thing and walk into places and apply, or ask your co-workers about openings. one of the easiest fields to advance in with no training or background if you're not afraid of actual labor imo. within 2 years i went from working at a rinky starbucks knockoff making 11.50 with shite hours to sous chef at a local brewery on salary. i make roughly 40k a year which isn't anything to write home about but it's a big improvement considering the timeframe. of course i work my ass off but that's just how it is. depending on how things go id like to get a degree and do something in academia, but if that fails i see myself becoming a fat little porker owning a nice little bar and grill unless the revolution comes first. it'll be commie themed and ill have such sort of art on the walls and ill play black flag and bebop jazz. might have a little dancefloor for djs too.

>>1457
That's great and everything but not everybody is going to have the level of dedication you have. You seem to have greater dreams than the op may have. Every bodies built differently I guess and there will always be winners and losers. Some people won't make it but maybe op will if that's what they eant.

The fact that most of our labor market is customer service is disheartening

>Always worked off the books
>Decide to try being legit
>Make LinkedIn account
>Find interesting new job opening, save it
>Next day: Closed, 30+ applicants

Why the fuck does anyone bother with this shit?

Are you a retard who also books their flights through the flight platforms or something? You don't apply through fucking linkedin, lmao. You go to the company's website and look for the job listing there and apply there.

>>1383
ive done it that way but I get more responses when I use indeed or ziprecruiter

>>1383
That sounds really fucking stupid. Does applying directly from website actually go to a human? Like, how do they file their emails from employment inquiries, partnerships, etc???

Why even have these third parties if they don't make life easier?

You're part of the problem. No snap for you. Fucking starve and die bitch. I'd throw you out of your house too and squat there. Your mom's house I should say.

>>1413
>>1408

Shut the fuck retard. Linkedin applications get spammed and botted by people who barely read the job descriptions and thus have a vastly inferior share of genuine applicants, so an application through linkedin is vastly inferior and more heavily drowned out by spam. Who do zoomers like you have a boomer-tier understanding of how the internet works? Linkedin is in the data business, not in the job business, duh.

>>1383
tbh that's recent now that everything is total shit, every job i've landed except my first two was through linkedin's inbox

What is the coziest job? I love the idea of being a fisherman. Can you imagine being a Scandinavian fisherman? Must be awesome.

I fantasize a lot about being a hard-bodied young man sailing across the world, exploring all of Europe, all the while serving my nation by being the best Fisherman in all the land. Hopefully I will reincarnate into something like that. Unfortunately I'm a lazy-eyed, glasses-wearing, wimpy little freak.

There are no cozy jobs. Either they're physically straining or mentally draining. Or often both. At least in my opinion. Although I will say the job I have right can often be quite swell. I'm a night cleaner at a school so as long as I don't have anything extra to do I can get my work done with some time to spare and with minimal contact with others. I'm usually listening to music while I work.

prostitution

I always thought being a small town community college professor would be sweet. Not really a profession available to many, but if you’re not ambitious and like your subject it would probably be pretty awesome

Whoever came up with using AI for tech support chat is a genious and a liberator, a hero of modern IT workers.
I fucking hate doing tech support. Blessed be LLMs.

Depends on the type. Some system and network admins know the entire product catalog of CISCO, but use PCs in a manner barely more agile than a boomer

AI is ultimately a FOMO Scam that's already reached it's peak.

And can we stop calling it AI. it's not true AI at all, it's machine Learning and Large Language Models.

And here's another video about AI.

>>1135
well that's also because most of the "essential" jobs are minimum wage

File: 1765450351913.jpg (67.24 KB, 720x761, E1HKI3mVIAIRbYc.jpg)

most white collar work is a grift, and I'm only mad at AI because it took my grift and now I'm forced to find another grift or get an honest job (worse fate than death)

I will not pretend I was actually doing something in my bullshit excel job, I was doing bullshit just like my coworkers and we all got laid off, the gig is up, this is just what happens to the people who think they are entitled to never working with their hands, shit happens.

I chose this path because i don't ever see myself getting my hands dirty or carrying heavy loads, I think it's beneath me, thinking like this may lead me to absolute failure in life but I will not back down, I was promised a comfy life where I just type in the computer and get money for it, renouncing this divine right is like giving up and accepting life is toil, the moment I accept life as toil is the moment I kill myself.

MOMMY TOLD ME I WAS A SMART BOY, MOMMY TOLD ME I COULD DO ANYTHING I WANTED IN LIFE.


 

Despite my life being boring and bland, one of the most satisfying experiences every morning is going back to bed knowing wage cucks have to get up, drive their cars or take the bus/train, and work 8+ hours for a mere 400 shekels a day. This feeling is increased by 100x on a monday, which is the worst for wage cucks.
I may be called a loser by society but i’m joyful i’m not slaving away everyday only for my boss to make more profit from me and not get shit.

Condoms do sound like a goid thing to steal. I'll never use them but they're good to have. I say razors and razor blades the stores made them so hard to purchase that I wouldn't feel particularly bad just swiping them.

Humblebrag

Also commit time theft as much as possible.

I used to work in a food packaging factory and alot of food got wasted if it was even slightly defective so id smuggle a few packs out every so often.

You got to think about the economy anon. If not you'll go to hell and burn in eternity and hurt all your friends and family and you won't deserve anything this life. Especially sex, since girls will think of you as gross and will automatic ick. And if you don't want sex then what are you gay? And if you're gay then fuck you you're no real man no wonder you don't want to work just go kill yourself. Anyways the problem isn't working so much as the social mores and rules we live under.

I've been stealing from my workplace for about a month now and as far as I know absolutely nobody has caught on to what I'm doing. I work in the e-commerce department at a grocery store so when I'm gathering items for a customer's order or doing reshop to put stuff back on shelves and I'm in the wine section I just grab stuff. I've only been stealing these things called buzzballs and big sips they're like little almost circular bottles of alcohol so it's easy for me to slip them into my jacket or the cart I'm working on and take them with me without anyone noticing. I've probably stolen $60 to $70 dollars worth of product from my store so far.


All of that is to say- I dont want to lose my job over this so where is a safe place to steal a good amount of alcohol from with a low chance of being caught? I'm not even old enough to drink so buying it isnt a choice, and also I'm only happy now when I'm drunk so I don't want to stop. Just make suggestions on how I can shoplift safely and efficiently, thanks.

Was tricked to sign a letter of resignation from my job at the russian post office. Despite the fact that I was on probation and my employment contract was fixed-term (although informally after its termination they almost always offer a full-time position) my…I don't know - supervisor? the main bitch of the workplace? didn't like me because of a couple of fuckups like a cash shortage, which I was really guilty of and paid for out of my own pocket (the statement of financial responsibility was signed by me on the first day of employment), and she decided to lie that the employee I was replacing was about to go to work.
Which was an easily verifiable lie that I realized literally as I closed the door behind me. Ah, yes, since I quit "at my own request", I have to work for three days, so called "otrabotka" (two weeks if you were taken without probation), which I will not do (devilish?), because after signing my resignation letter I am no longer an employee and can not be forced to work.
Also new thing I learned opening the labor code for the first time.
-there is no concept of working after dismissal, but there is a concept of notification before dismissal, so it should be 3 days or 2 weeks before the fact.

Thanks for reading my stupid rant.

No one said anything? We call customers out for eating off the hot bar and shit but beating off in public like that at the restaurant? At least pour some water or him or throw some old food at him

>>1409
he was escorted out don't worry, however i don't really know the precise circumstances about how it was handled because i was hastily leaving at the time

last week at this particular place. if you think that workers demanding a reasonable work load as to not compromise their physical health as some kind of "entitlement" you belong in a fucking mass grave
>it's not the appropriate time to worry about your health you know
>you soft ass newbies are being way too entitled, when we were starting this business that business we were working our asses off for 13 hours a day with 2 people on site only, can't you understand
>no we're not letting your coworker to help you guys right now, even despite him being in a dire financial situation. why? we're not telling you

>>1414
They really do want us to be sick and injured all the time

Just give me a fucking job, anything I can get to and work. I can't do fucking nightshifts because the person I'm living with won't let me fuck this gay earth

What's to do when the west weaponizes your people left and right while it exports both liberal LGBT concerns while pushing against working class LGBT people's interests worldwide AND also exports hateful rhetoric at the same time?
can't even get a job,
can't even get healthcare.
can't side with your oppressors and can't side with the western imperialist backstabbers extending you their hand; you can clearly see the knife in their other hand.

I wanted to be part of the productive forces and even the military forces
get rejected for being "mentally unfit" and "not knowing which gender i am"
and for what? just to be sent to the precariat
and all i can do now it's make 3D work and try and make videogames
while everything goes to hell.

i feel like thirdworldism incarnated.
i just listen to FARC music and Narcocorridos all day while i build Tarkov guns
