I'm not worth life. I have no skills, no credentials of worth, no valuable experience, I don't own anything. I'm locked into bills, I'm 25 years old so I have to keep a roof over myself, I have to feed myself, I have to have a car and car insurance.
I'll spare you my life story but it really is that simple, I could work all day every day and never take a day off and Id still only break even.
Time for me to leave right? I'm not doing anyone any good, no one needs me around, I'm ok with being done. What do you think?
Work harder, improve. Bitching on the internet is not gonna do anything, don't like trash people with low standards convince you that everything is ok. Make it work. Don't be garbage. You only have one fucking life man. What do you wanna do with it?
Michael Wood
I'm contemplating going to prison for housing
My work is worthless. There are no promotions, I'm at my cap, I will never earn more than what I make now.
Kayden Parker
Enlist in the military sell everything you own and then while in go to college or take advantage of that sweet GI Bill. Trust me, you only have one life, what is the point of just getting by?
Preferably this. That is step 2 of course after the military.
Bentley Cook
Get a better job obviously. Do whatever it takes, live the American dream. We're only beating the hooks because we have that kind of tenacity, those Buddhist fuckers are fine with living in poverty. Go hard or go home.
Chase Hughes
I've considered that but it's possible that I won't cut it, I'm kind of slow and not quick to react.
Elijah Harris
I can't, I don't qualify for a better job.
Jonathan Cruz
Well in that enviornment you either adapt or get discharged, why not at least give it a go. It is better than working 24/7 being miserable
Aaron Parker
If I could break lease with my apartment I might be better off just living out of a car or being homeless.
Anyone have any tips for being homeless?
William Kelly
Yeah I guess that is my only option.
Andrew Gomez
Do you honestly want advice? Your life is what you make it and if you are this miserable something, anything needs to change for you to feel better or worse. I think the issue is you do not have a set goal or determination to see things through, maybe at least speak to a recruiter
Brody Fisher
*Not my only option but one of my only options
Adrian Flores
I could either: Be homeless Join the military Go to prison Hit the off switch
I'm not happy right now, sorry.
Benjamin Ward
Stfu and get a job retard
Sebastian Young
I have a job you faggot read the god damn thread
Charles Roberts
Get a better job dumbass
Ayden Cooper
READ THE GOD DAMN THREAD
Bentley Gray
Shut the fuck up. Go to school or whatever the fuck you gotta do to get a better job, are you retarded?
Luis Edwards
You're at the cap, so clearly you qualify for something better. Do you have a physical disability or something that prevents you from working elsewhere??
Levi Ortiz
Are you going to pay for my classes? I'm the highest paid ditch digger of them all.
Noah Wood
I'm gonna be real with you, if you truly hate your life and think suicide is your only option then go for it. You are not a 13 year old, you can make your decisions now.
Charles Wright
It's not my only option but it might be my best option, to quit while I'm ahead before it gets even worse
Landon Morales
Is there a magical gypsy that can make it so I was aborted? That'd be cool.
Noah Hill
I'd say for you to wait till you 30s user, until then try everything at your will
Brayden Thompson
Are there any websites that encourage suicide? Everytime I try to Google it just prevention stuff comes up.
Schools not your only option man, just keep trying. Don't be such a flake, at least fucking give it a shot before you complain about it. Apply all over, get certs, put shit on your resume. I know it's hard, but it's really not that hard compared to just doing nothing and suffering. Work two jobs whatever, life's hard for a lot of people be grateful you can work.
Landon Wright
Again dude I'm basically an overpaid ditch digger. It's all can do, it's all that's on my resume, I get paid the maximum amount I will get paid for my labor. Thanks anyway
Joseph Cox
i lived in a vehicle for a year. it's pretty /comfy/ but everything is a pain in the ass to do. need to charge your phone? $3 coffee and 2 hours of your time. need a shower? have to go to the gym. want to relax in private? nope, can't. gotta sit in the coffee shop if you want internet access and power. had some of the best times of my life and some of the worst.
Robert Brooks
Why can't you get another job or work two jobs? Man if I had more time I could do fucking anything, I could deconstruct the world build it back the way I want.
op iktf. been in the workforce 3 years, spent half that time unemployed, and i'm down 5k for my efforts. i've been fucking miserable, miserable jobs, tons of slavedays watching the clock, 3 years of my life gone, only to lose $5k. it blows. this world blows. the most valuable item i own is my laptop. no car, ramen is the staple of my diet, can't go out, even bus fare is an expense i prefer to avoid unless necessary, and no matter how much i scrimp rent is incredible so it eats all my money anyway. 95% of my expenses are just rent. and even though i pay this much rent to live in a city where i was told there were opportunities and good jobs, i can't find work most of the time and the jobs pay shit when i do. feel like i've been had, just completely had. if i think about how much of a waste this was i get wanting to kill myself. god damned misery. can't even enjoy being unemployed because you have anxiety real bad and are afraid to spend even a dollar you don't need to spend.
Robert Russell
Maximum amount as in highest paid, maximum hours. No one is going to give me more than what I make now.
Mason Harris
Good info, thanks. I hope something changes for you fren
Joseph Wilson
why did you waste the previous 20 years not developing some skills?
Nathan Ortiz
If you think about it, most people, throughout most of history, worked their whole lives doing horrible work in horrible conditions just to put a roof over their heads and feed their families, if they were lucky. And they didn't consider ending their lives. Why? Because they saw meaning in their lives. Do we now live in a world where if you don't have money and material things you can't find any meaning? Or do you feel like a failure for not being more "successful"? And if that's the case, in the modern world with unlimited opportunity, why not find a way?
Austin Lewis
i hate that pressure, for one. always comparing yourself to what others post for social media. well x is vacationing 5x a year to exotic locations, why can't you even afford to eat a meal out more than once a month? why are you a failure? constant pressure. then you get resentful. "i'm smarter and more frugal and harder working than x, why do they get all this fantastic stuff and live in a great apartment when i live in a rathole and can't afford a new pair of shoes let alone a trip to y every 3 months?"
they expect you to have 3 side hustles and be a social media star and be an instagram influencer and all this shit and if you're not well, what the fuck is wrong with you, are you lazy, are you stupid? everyone else is a fit-stagram star or a bitcoin millionaire or a popular youtuber or this or that and they all live picture perfect lives. then you get resentful and feel like you slipped between the cracks, you're getting a raw deal. is this envy? i'm not envious by nature but when i'm eating rice and beans and everyone else is getting sushi every night even the greatest saint on the planet would start feeling resentful.
i don't even USE social media and i still get all this shit secondhand.
Well THAT GIRL is getting $150k a month from her patreon followers, what's wrong with you, why can't you make money, are you ugly or something, are you fat? i'm tired of it all.
Josiah Evans
It's not your fault, it's this fucked up world composed of 1% buttholes who think the rest 99% owe them something. This world is fucked up. The whole of it. I emphasize. I daily go on living with the need to destroy the notion of money, capitalism, politics. I wish for apocalypse desu.
Brandon Martin
Most young people I know are miserable and I don't care how much money they have. They chase pleasure and stoke their egos instead of making real connections. They don't have any real meaning in their lives. You don't have to live that way. I surround myself with people who are working on themselves internally because why else are we here? To go to restaurants and have fantastic stuff? Our worth doesn't come from doing, it comes from being. If you can find real joy, trust me, they will envy you.
