How else am I supposed to achieve the American Dream?
Just got hired at my first retail job as a technician at the apple shop (UK) and they have asked me to name an hourly rate i think is fair.
What do I say, Jow Forums?
Lol It’s called the American dream becuase you have to be asleep to believe it
$15hr
20$
>applied for a shit tonne of companies a year ago
>got the same meme rejection email from everyone of them

t-thanks

you just can't win can you cucky
Does any user know if its worth it to become a paid shill? Asking for a friend
ive gotten like 12 of these emails in the past 5 weeks. fuck this shit.
I earn $11.25 an hour and I can live relatively comfortable in my studio apt with enough room for my collectables. I think 11.50 or 11.75 would be enough to start some savings, find gf, etc.
Ten pound
Im a paid shill for chainlink. I spoke to Rory about it last year and he set up my interview at mcdonald's with Sergey. I thought it was a sketchy job at first because they wanted to pay me in link tokens and Sergey was eating 10 big macs in a sweat but i didn't have better options at the time. Overall i can't complain about the pay because since the team hired us to shill the price tripled and so has my pay. I just dump on the market the tokens come in. My contract expires at the end of the year but ill kerp shilling if they renew my contract.
But is it a SmartContract?

What the fuck did I do wrong Jow Forums? I've never been more rattled in my life. Why the fuck do I even bother I'm so close to necking myself
That's easy they probably don't want to hire lazy bums with nothing on their resume for years since graduation.
nailed it.
I gave up. It's just not worth going to job interviews over and over, stressing over them and wasting my time, just to be told I was rejected a week later. They can find someone else to fill their interview quotas. Fuck off
At least you got a reply...
Shoulda lied on your resume lad
I hate work. I make $60k and 50% goes to the government and my ex wife for child support. My job requires a degree and I'm getting paid like a fucking Walmart drone. Kill me.
I have rudimentary web developer skills and have a shitty business admin degree with only janny experience. I was thinking of making a fake business website that I could say got me experience to get a better job, would that work or would like an accounting firm think I’m full of shit?
>working as a tutor

I really hope I can make it anons
I get a daily email about jobs for me from a site based on my criteria. One criteria is entry level so 2 years or less experience. So I check out this job and it has only that less than 2 years checked, but in the description it says that they want minimum 2 years. I just applied to tell the HR bitch she is dumb for setting less than 2 years yet asking for more than 2. Am I autistic?
Phone interview Monday. Gonna try to be a water treatment operator. Here's hoping it's not the 3rd shift
Underated
About what though? I have basically as good experience I can have without having worked post graduation which is not allowed
I did work after graduation just not in my field
i had to remove my work title and experience off of linkedin because recruiters wouldn't leave me alone lmao
How important are references on a resume? Been thinking of creating email accounts because I left on bad terms with my previous employer.
Where at in florida? I'll hire you for maid work desu.
Why keep on living? Why not just be free and do something fun before they take you down?
Child support is literally slavery. If the woman wants to take the child, then she should show that she makes enough to support it. If not, then the child should go to the man. I swear women are useless. Not worth marrying
>fell for the vaginal jew
West Palm Beach. I hate it here, there's just no decent jobs in this area
I actually just got service writer job at local Toyota dealership. I have experience in the field and the pay/hours are going to be much better than my previous employer. Just waiting for HR to call me to schedule my first day
>muh George Carlin
I haven't had a job in months, I'm so fucked when I actually apply. It's going to be hell getting these rejection letters.
kek.
>law degree
>loads of debt. yes fell for the meme blah blah
>waiting for CA bar results
>finally one interview
>pays 15/hour.
wtf Jow Forums bros... people who shill useless degrees/schools should be put in front of a firing squad. Will likely take the job for experience sake, climb the idiot ladder, and to throw more into Link. Or save and try to make my own business.
I'm in the exact same situation, except I haven't taken the bar yet. I am eyeing different States and trying to figure out where I can move to work and won't hate my life as an attorney
Cuckifornia sucks because it isn't part of the UBE. so you're pretty much stuck here. I think if I used half of my brain I would have taken the UBE, and have the option to move and experience new states.
also CA 28% bar passage rate has me shitting and worried.
I applied to 3 companies, and got 1 interview. I feel very disheartened right now.
You came across as too desperate.
A million dollars an hour
Just waiting for paperwork to go through. Quit my shitty ass high paying software job and found a good one that pays a lot less but will actually give me transferable skills and hopefully not make me wanna kms. I had an interview with one of the FAANG jews earlier in the year and barely failed it w/o studying so I've been practicing in my free time since then and planning to try again after a few months at my new place.
Never heard this one before....
Some free advice that'll guarantee interviews:
Go research Applicant Tracking Systems.
An easy 90%+ companies use them, and they scan your CV/application for relevant buzzwords and will reject you within seconds of you hitting send (the rejection comes a week later to give it the appearance of legitimacy.
It's literally as simple as ensuring the correct buzzwords are in your shit that match to the company/job specification.
>pursuing STEM degree in a 5 year program
>get headhunted in the 4th year

Did I make a mistake?
yeah, you're an idiot.
Ask to be paid in sexual favors.
Medical records coder, I get harassed by headhunters frequently. Been drowning in work for oh, eight years now.
UK - posts $
Just look on Glassdoor user
You didn't followup enough - call and email every two business days until you get a yes/no or follow up date
Thinking of joining the army and then becoming a LEO when I get out. Seems like they hire just about anyone where they're desperate so there's that. College degree.
Have you looked into teaching high school chemistry? It's a sweet gig in nice districts.
Get on Income Based Repayment and get that job and you'll be okay for now, work on your bar and seriously bust your ass and sometime in the next 5 years you'll pass, try doing some independent law work on some pajeet bullshit site like Fiver so you can get some consulting experience for your resume and keep yourself in the law field as well as you can.
ugh so I had a decent wagecuck job but I got fired but didn't give a shit because I worked too much and never had time to myself
then I got a really high paying job contracting and had tons of time to myself but had to deal with pajeets and drive a alot
so I quit and my wife was working. so I helped my dad build a dock. He doesn't pay me a lot but it was good to spend time with him and I had plenty of time to surf and funpost here.
Now my life is complete shit. I didn't leave the house today. Some faggot came up to my dad and wants us to build a dock for him but my dad doesn't want to do it. I can build the dock myself but I'm fucking lazy and I don't legally have a contracors license.
I am too lazy to do anything other than look at the computer all day. I can barely even feed myself.
HOw can I get back on the horse? I'm too lazy to fill out a job application and I could probbly charge this guy a years wage to build his gay ass dock but I'm totally complacement playing with my meager stack of shitcoins? What can I do?
Dude that makes sense. Thank you. I like the idea of pajeeting myself on fiverr. Thinking of doing that now even though I don’t have my bar license...
I am studying molecular medicine and I can't get a part time job at my university. I'm sending emails to professor's and it's not working. I never had a job in my life.
Tried to save the white race didn't you?
Well delusions are not reality.
>mfw I never have trouble getting hired whether it be for internships or full time because I'm not retarded
Is accounting a good career to go into? I'll be getting a CPA.
>I’m lucky so I must be a god
Yet you ended up here
>lucky
luck had nothing to do with me getting almost perfect grades in uni, heading the student investment fund, and doing extra-curricular tutoring to the stupider kids. I've probably been here longer than you anyways.
What was your major
You’re too desperate, act like you’re in charge and people will follow
Tfw no twink with big feet to be a paypig for and wagecuck for while he racks in crypto gains from the money I send him
>anyways
not well
First off, how did you get hired before they even said how much they were going to pay you?
Secondly, the first person to throw out a number loses. Make sure that's them, not you.
If they ask you to name a rate, ask them "What's your range?"
If they say they don't have a range, say, "Is there a minimum?"
If they do have one, ask if there's a maximum. If they have that, you just got a range from HR who thought there was no range.
If they don't say there's a minimum and don't say there's a range, you come back with a canned response about how you're interested in the total compensation package, and you're sure you'll be able to come to an agreement, et. cetera.
Since you were already hired, just try to get a range, and shoot within that range. If it's too low, ask about benefits and such. Since it's an apple shop technician job you probably won't be able to swing working from home or flexible hours - so just consider full time and healthcare to be good enough.
You probably are looking in the 12-14 range depending on where in the UK you are.
you'll do something when you have to. ask yourself what you actually want. if that's to be a slob then nobody is gonna change that for you till you're ready
>I earn $11.25 an hour and I can live relatively comfortable in my studio apt with enough room for my collectables. I think 11.50 or 11.75 would be enough to start some savings, find gf, etc.
this should be a board banner
Have one. Can't get bothered to get fired after a year, lol.
I went in to a really important interview the other day. I think it went really well. They told me they'd definitely consider me for the second round. However, the interview was Wednesday and I haven't gotten a call back yet. Am I fucked?
I just turned down Robinhood because I had a good offer somewhere else. $140k remote.
Making like $4000 a month at the moment and i just want more desu
>Is there a minimum?
>That really depends on the candidate
>Oh.. i-is there a m-maximum?
>No
>u-uh y-you too
>name an hourly rate
REEEEEEEE JUST FUCKING PAY ME SOME PERCENTAGE OF THE VALUE I BRING TO THE COMPANY, NOT SOME BULLSHIT EMOTIONALLY DRIVEN VALUE REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Thanks sold 100k
Kek OP, I applied to the same job and got the same rejection letter, PBC fag
fuck you
>PAY ME SOME PERCENTAGE OF THE VALUE I BRING TO THE COMPANY
Meritocracy is racist
Do it user. I'm leaf so Airforce pays well for its officers here. Need a degree but I'll be starting 50knamd moving up to 80k in year and a half.
It sucks, like every type of job in that general field asks for 2+ years of experience, even help desk 1 stuff. I just want to get out of the retail trap. $9/hr arranging items on shelves and dealing with asshole customers is killing me inside
I'm getting out of this shit hole as soon as I can, no way I can stay here, especially with the Canadians and Haitians. I recommend you do too.
I don't want to get a job. I would rather be poor and free
Freedom is subjective, you're just poor.
Good luck man, I'll try escaping once I finish my degree.
Good luck to you too. Sad to know I'm gonna have to leave what I know to be home, but that's life.
>Work 9-5
>Low stress
>Can exercise/cook every day

>Earn around $5000/month after taxes

Feels nice
All I needed to do was get a finance degree from a decent school, work smart and not be autistic
Try it sometime you guys
>finance
>low stress
what's your job? not memeing, reason I strayed from that major was specifically the high stress I was told about from a fuck ton of guys I talked to in the industry
>just build a time machine to when everyone with a pulse got a great job
Fuck off boomer
>"freedom is subjective"
>he says while sucking his boss's penis because he NEEDS this job
You've shot that before right? Pls tell me that's a troll round.
