always been curious about the flipping life. how often do you work, and what is your monthly profit range like? taking vacation whenever you want probably feels godly
Ayden Cook
I flip burgers: Pros are free mchickens so no food costs Also keeps me on my feet and lifting boxes for hours so no need to hit the gym
Cons are I'm treated like I'm literally retarded by boomers who's brains are literally rotting from all the years of drugs abuse and all the opiates their doctor gives them. The work enviroment is literally setup like some sort of fucked up mkultra acid cell with bright colors flashing lights and buzzers everywhere and your forced to smile at people who have less self awareness then a rubber tire Also your coworkers are all Mexicans on massive amounts of cocaine who are likely to snap and beat you to death with a metal spatula
10/10 wish I could pay more taxes to subsidize shekelsteins burger funhouse

I was doing night work for a while for a pest/chemical company that actually has the McDonald's chain as one of their customers. You may have a few of their fly traps in your kitchen/dining area. Winter was the hardest for me due to the late sunset and being on call at 3pm when you walked in the door at 9am. Cracking open a beer at 10am felt strange, though.
Tyler Richardson
Fraud Underwriter Pros >pay is decent 60k burgerbucks a year in dirt cheap area. Plus full benefits +401k >job is decently interesting. It’s like playing a text based puzzle video game >enormous company so great job security >supervisors and coworkers are competent and friendly >lots of potential for upward mobility >can occasionally send asshole boomers to jail for insurance fraud
Cons >position was EXTREMELY difficult to get and I had to work a shitty position for a while and excel at it to get this job. No easy mode way in. >occasionally asshole boomers call in and yell at me for their fuckups
Alexander Peterson

Nolan Cooper
I'm a trucker and the only thing that gets my dick hard is the thought of thieving, kiking, useless middlemen brokers who should have all been replaced by a computer program a decade ago, suffering. But seriously, I've dealt with CH Robinson before and it wasn't too bad.
It was Ecolab and they're known all around the globe for pest elimination. There are some chains I will not eat at due to how poor the sanitation issues were when I was doing inspections on these restaurants. A majority of my Mickey D's were well kept and clean which was always nice and saved me time.
Jose Butler
Commission car sales Pros >commission is nice, cause I'm a pro >not stuck at a desk all day >just bullshit with work friends when no customers >flexible schedule >sometimes make $1000 a day Cons >dealership is open 7am-midnight, so twice a week have to stay till midnight >dealership only closed july 4th and xmas >kinda shit benefits >everyone that isn't sales is a faggot >general manager is a huge bitch.
