How you react when your boss says "Get back to work" again?
Do you stay silent or throw Molotov cocktail in his face?

Threaten to leave, and follow through if I have to.

What makes you motivated to wake up each week day and begin another days work? Am personally not particularly motivated by things, so am looking for something of another form. Am currently a student more or less dreading and finding it difficult to imagine enjoying most of my life. Am looking for a perspective to stop dreading the future working so much.

Know statistically that most American workers are "very satisfied" with their occupation, but find this confusing. Who would want to work? Suppose someone who rationalized, or someone who earns money by coincidence (their interests and aspirations by happenstance being economically viable). Is there some way out of this?

I think the alternative to working would be doing something for fun (hobbies), or doing nothing and being depressed. Everything costs money, and I don't like the idea of living on benefits.

Why is it ok to criticize work but when I criticize schooling, it's considered wrong?
Schooling has far more dross than working.

I'm a dysfunctional transgender autistic NEET with a large resume gap and a tiny amount of work experience in software development. I'm around 30. I don't feel motivated to sit through corporate bullshit. I was thinking about going into retail and other unskilled labor with the intent to agitate and organize. Is this romantic silliness or is this possible? I don't have experience in retail or food service or political organizing. Also I'm pretty socially dysfunctional. But it strikes me that salting seems like something that would be really worthwhile and I'd really willing to sacrifice for. It feels a lot more positive than any other sort of work I could do. I don't have a family I need to support and so on.

Thanks!
The impression I get is that the easiest mistake to make would be adventurism. You have to work hard and be normie about things for the first little while. Patience and professionalism is the key. Not romantic adventure shit.

Anyhow I do think people who have NEETbux are an undertapped resource for worker organizing. If you're already living off of disability and leaching off family it lessens the threat of firing.

>intentionally go for shitty work instead
Not OP but bait taken: you expect someone to not only get a job in software development in current year, with a gap in their resume, and then salt a union into said software dev job?

I am in cadre/leadership of a union local in retail. It's very rewarding and you should get a service job and organize it. I am trans and had social anxiety disorder before I started working retail but not autism.

Computer jobs are not actually good except for money which doesn't really matter if you are a communist. If you have really bad dysphoria distress and want operations you can get that with a grocery job if you move somewhere where gender care is required by state insurance regulations. In Oregon we also have OHP which gives you face/puss for free if you are part time / poor

You could try living off welfare



 

You do not become unemployed when you quit. You need to register in the labor office, I thought it is easy, but I got it wrong.. What labor office means by unemployed, it is not someone who is not working. It is someone who is looking for a job! In the office they direct you to a job and IMO you can't decline. Also, is not inability to decline the job given - slavery?

Why register? The gobt ask you. If you can't pay city tax, you need to register. If you want to prove your 0 income, to get some heating compensated, they ask you to register. While as you see, you can't register.

Just if you got an impression that modern gobt is somehow humane, I'm not sure.. may be, but as you see, it might be a false imporession, in some cases.

Honestly if you get a job immediately that sounds pretty good at least if they pay you. But it's most likely a very shitty job and that sucks shit. They'll probably also get rid of you quickly which also sucks and then you tossed into another shitty job. Is that how they do it in Moldova?

Hey, I think I got an idea.

So, given unemployed is someone who is looking for a job and labor office duty is to verify you look for a job.. They verify that by giving you a blank that you should bring to an interview, then bring it back to the labor office. Then again, …

Why do that if I can just show them my email account? The messages I've sent, which firms reply to my message, etc. I can allow them to view that.

Labor office also can setup their own email server for unemployed. Which I could use to send my CVs and they can use it to view what I'm doing.

What it also will give them, is a tool the labor office can use to find fake job postings. They will see if the job poster did not reply.

>>1301
Idk, just some rumors. May be yes, getting a job fast likely will be a bottom job. Also will bourgeois use you more or pay you less, knowing you should accept their job? …

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.

how is he so fat?

year one unemployment, I bullishitted my way into a comfy IT job back in 2022 and they fired me last year, I don't actually know how to do anything, I don't have any skills.

my life is in shambles, my parents look at me like I'm a piece of shit.

I recommend not doing this, I spent too much time worrying about getting fired and then I got fired, best to just not give a fuck.

I work part-time in a small town, repackaging near rotten fruit so it can be sold for 2x the price, the lady who's a higher-up at the store I work at constantly micromanages me even though I never do anything wrong,
she always makes my already nauseating job of picking through moldy berries even harder by not even checking the ones which are clearly off and throwing them right in with the good ones i spent so much time on then goes and throws away perfectly good bread.
who fucking came up with the idea of having a boss or some higher-up who shoves orders down your throat, this shit is really getting in the way of productivity.



 

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
1 post omitted.

>>1378
a Homestuck meme in this economy?

Those combination fast food restaurants also usually sell only parts of the regular menu and not the full menu

>>1380
surprisingly our place has all the food from each place, the only thing missing is a few drinks and the freezes from taco bell (and also we don't do taco bell orders through the online app, which is sad)

Service workers gotta be the most class cucked workers in my experience
>Coworkers would chronically work themselves to exhaustion for pennies
>Kiss up to management and business owners despite constant abuse from them
>Put up with being denied breaks by management because "it's too busy," despite it being against the law
Glad I left that shit industry. Front of house always had some baddies though

>This sounds like something a boomer would say.
There's some kernel of truth to it: compsci graduates have highest unemployment numbers (7%) vs anyone graduating from a humanities major BUT humanities graduates have higher underemployment numbers than compsci graduates meaning that there's a greater chance that a humanities graduate will take any job vs a compsci graduate which will rather remain unemployed and bide their time

I dunno where else to vent, my workplace is going to shit and I feel like I'm going to be jobless soon, I started interviewing but I feel so nervous that I fucked up a leetcode easy, it wasn't even DP related, I just froze in the spot. I have no idea what will next year even look like

Just had an interview at a lab, they straight-up told me they don't have a job for me and that I just try again in 4 months for the coming 6 months period. They still showed me around for an entire hour and gave me all their personal contact information. Weirdest interview experience so far.

I GOT A JOB, LET'S GOOOO

I'm tired of failing to get a good job. Even if I get a good job, what will be it, realistically? Probably $3k monthly at best where I am, in IT. In a very lucky scenario maybe $5k or $7k but that's entering "purely theoretical" territory.
Anyway, I'm tired.
How do I start dealing drugs? I heard they earn shittons of money. Where to get started?

>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.
