POLL: Do you have a job?

[Deleted member 19276]

Got close to finding... But did not get hired.

 

[GrumpyFrog]

I have two jobs. The fact that I do and I still don't have money to live a life I would consider decent is one of my primary reasons to be suicidal, I hate being poor.

 

[Lordsudbury]

Had a great career in the service industry and a part time job and online company, all of which collapsed and now I have PTSD and wanna kill myself so I can't go back to work cuz I'm a trainwreck and left the country.

If I was home, everyone got laid off anyways (I'd be able to return/seniority) but winter is coming so u know gonna be shit anyways

I work in Internet promotions. I also used to be a freelance web-developer, making websites.

What exactly is internet promotions ?

That's a bit of a specific job. In my case, it's B2B promotions, i.e. we target employees at certain positions in certain companies, and then send them links to simple online resources, that promote products relevant to their jobs via social media and e-mail. Then we track which ones actually shown interest in the resource and send their contacts to our customer (the company that sells the promoted product) so they can continue to spam this person until they'll pressure them into buying something. That's the best way I can explain it, at least.

Cool. I wish I was smarter, I might've actually be a software developer instead of doing my rather useless and fairly boring job. But oh well, it pays...

What language do you program in and what are you making, if you don't mind answering?

 

[Lilacmoon]

i have one. i dont deserve it though. i should die and free up a slot for someone who may want to live.

You were a web developer so you were a programmer too! You must be knowing HTML,CSS and js at least .
I know python, js , C and some noob level HTML .

 

[Disappointered]

I work from home for around ~4-5 hours per a day, but not every day, sometimes I can skip it for a whole week, sometimes I'm working every day, depends on how I feel. I tried to get a full job few times, but failed. Anyway I didn't want it. I almost abandon my current job, but I earned enough money to sit home for a few years and do nothing, and I'm going to ctb soon, so I won't even have a time to spend it lol.

may i ask what your job is?

 

[Wayfaerer]

I have no job and there is a 0% chance I could even hold one down at this point. I'm ruined.

 

[Panna]

I don't and I truly don't think I could hold, I get scared over pretty much anything in real life situations, over thinking, worrying about what they might be thinking from the smallest response, all I know how to do is to keep myself moving and to not stop no matter what, even if asked to, if you keep moving you can't be yelled at, but then it hits that you don't know what to do next, and god help you if you ask your superior in any way what you should be doing. Perfect way to get screamed at and to have a nice break down. I'm hoping to get something slow paced like working at a library, if I'm lucky it'll be as slow as I hope for and there will be little stress

Programmer

Wow another one!

 

[AJ95]

Nope. Last time I worked was at the start of 2018, I took some time off after that to travel and then started studying.

Turns out my brain is just too fucked to do anything lol

 

[Jumper Geo]

I had an excellent career until I took Risperidone for 6 months and then my life was destroyed.

Cheers
