25+ general

I turn 26 in a week. Doen't really have any friends or family any more so I usually just get really depressed and angry around this time.

Also got fired from my job earlier this month and have been putting in applications with no avail. Unemployment office hasn't contacted me yet on whether or not im approved neetbucks, but they probably won't. Don't have that much left in savings so im gonna need to a new job within the month or else.

Haven't showered or gone outside in 9 days.

What about you guys?

His workplace probably installed the new incel detector

drunk ESP. Was drunk myself last night and I could sense there were dozens if not hundreds of bots being degenerates at the exact same time.

Been trying to just snooze this hangover away but its kicking my ass. Going the hare-of-the-dog route now.

I worked at a warehouse that had a 3 strike policy for safety violations.

Honestly, I just think they didn't like me and finally got the paperwork and the ok from upper management to get rid of me, because there were several workers that would break safety rules all the time and even destroy equipment and they got to keep their jobs.

...guess I'm staying

Got an interview at burger king today. I'm used to making $20/hr, but I'll take whatever I can get since I got fired.

What was your old job before

Still an incel... :/

I worked in a distribution center for a major retailer.

Is it true that young people don't even trade phone numbers anymore? I was reading another thread where some user recommended a younger user ask for a girls phone number and a bunch of I guess young people said people don't even call anymore for dates they just instagram or something?

Did you get fired for safety shit too?

I got fired for attendance.
I got involuntarily locked up in a psych ward and the stupid paki doctor wouldn't sign a paper saying I was physically incapable of working.

>attendance
i don't understand?

aw ok that sucks
He means he wasn't able to get a verified excuse for missing work

>can't go to work because I was trapped in a mental hospital
>doctor won't cover my time because I refused to take his meds
>had to get a lawyer to get myself released
>"you missed 9 days in a row without a doctor's note, you're fired user"

thank you. that does suck.

what a scam. Why is life so rigged?

Welp, what industry do I go in now? I know basic ComSci stuff but am subpar at coding.

haven't had a drink since I was 23, besides which big job interview in London tomorrow so I wouldn't want to screw that up by coming in hungover

Why didn't you take the meds?
What basic compsci do you know?

good on you friend. Best of luck in your job interview.

>What basic compsci do you know?
Basic coding and IT but not good enough to get a job in just that. But I'm really good with the hardware related stuff.

I only drink on birthdays, holidays and new years.
I don't like waking up vomiting on myself.

Today I finally went to this place where other aspies can go as well and do shit. I coloured pictures. I've rarely been this anxious and stressed. I want to do it but fuck is it hard.

I'm 25. Got offered a job today, but I already have a job. This one is less stressful, better work life balance and what not, but I'm pretty sure I'd take a slight pay cut. My current job is a bit more stressful and annoying but it pays more, and the one I was offered is a bit easier. Not sure what I should do. I made a thread talking about if you guys could comment on it, here it is Could use some feedback, because I don't want to make the wrong decision. Most people I figured wouldn't take a job if it meant earning less money, but I think work life balance is important.

You done any CCNA type courses? I'm not sure how it works in the US, but here if you have some form of qualifications like that you could always get a basic entry level network job, installing routers if you can drive, or moving to one of the big data farms? I have landed a good job interview by failing at many many interviews, I have been going to them and basically using them to find out what the next ones will ask me, everything they mention I go home and research. It takes time and being unemployed and poor is the worst, but you can fix it.

Thanks man, I've never been so nervous but I feel good about it

If it pays enough, take it.

Can I get a CompSci job with a STEM (but not CompSci) Master's degree? I don't like my field and I just want a programming job.

Having just two less dollars an hour is way better than having a terrible job. Think of it this way: would you pay a few dollars a day to not do the worst part of your job? If you can afford it I highly recommend taking the easier job. Also you can just straight ask them about it and they might even match your pay.
I didn't want to get into entry level IT since it's only given to Indians where I live. But seeing as how I have few options and little to lose, I'll look into it. Any idea how hard these certs are to get?

>If it pays enough

Meaning what? Like pays enough for me to survive? Cause I don't think anyone likes taking a pay cut, obviously I'd hate to take a pay cut if I'm losing $60 or $80 on my paycheck, because that adds up over time. My parents think it's retarded of me to go to this other job if it's going to pay me less, but they're not looking at the big picture like I am. I'm considering other things besides money, but they're only thinking about the money, and I get that.

My dad is all like "People go to work to make money, and that's it. You take whatever job pays you the most, it's not that hard to decide." But he's wrong. There's more to a job then just money.

I make $13.13 an hour with Coca Cola, and Dr. Pepper pays $100 a day so you're making $1,000 every paycheck because they're salary. They can't match the pay. One company is hourly and the other is salary. Also one company has time and half over time, and the other one has some shitty Chinese style overtime system because they're salary.

CCNA is fairly easy, If you can do the basic networking stuff and that doesn't bore you too much then some colleges or local places will probably be running classes, you'll have to pay a little bit but it is a bonus on the CV. I actually didn't get my CCNA myself, since I went a more programming driven route during uni, but I know it isn't that difficult, unless you really struggle with maths. I have a friend who got a job doing the router installations by having his CCNA, seems like an easy enough job

Well Doc P is paying 95% of Coke so the difference really is negligible. But if someone is offering a salary based position in what is essentially 13$/hr, it's basically going to a scam to get you to work as much overtime as possible.

Hmmm, yeah. I mean I don't care for their overtime policy, but most salary positions don't get over-time anyway. At least with Coke I'm getting time and a half, so it's almost $20 an hour. That's the problem with salary though, because you're basically working for free and the company doesn't have to pay you for that extra time because you're salary.

The more time you work; the less money you make. If I'm getting $100 a day and I work 8 hours a day, then that just means I'm making roughly the same amount per hour. Basically $13 or $13.50 an hour. BUT let's say I work like 10 hours or 11 hours day, then that means I'm only making $9.50 or $10 an hour. So that's the problem. If I'm not working solid 8 hours each day and it's more like 10 or 11, then realistically I'm only making like fucking $10 an hour.

damn glad i dont need a license where i live

Where do you guys find the motivation to put the video games down and go outside? Im only going outside to eat.

hard mode i'm crippled and i can't even walk properly

Walk up a river bank, somewhere secluded, maybe somewhere that you have to climb through bushes or trees to get to, they cant police every inch of every stretch of water.

If you're a single guy with no kids then no, you do not fucking take the job that pays more. You take the one that is less stressful. There is no reason to make a lot of money if you have no time to use it and you're stressed/angry all the time.

What do you do there? Warehouse type work? I'm making $100 a day but busting my fucking ass, body is breaking down.

>Why didn't you take the meds?
because they turned me into a drooling subdued zombie.

Some darknet markets will encrypt for you. Dream does, when you go to enter your shipping info tick the encrypt box and it will generate the pgp itself, couldnt be easier.

But user the world is beautiful,even when it rains i atleast go to therapy.i invite my friends to go out but they always deny me i dont even think i have friends anymore im sure alot of people visit you

do you guys know a source of income that that doesn't involve complex thought or having to deal with people in any way? Doing captioning atm but that really isn't enough

There's this 38 year old guy at work who reply-all'd a quick memo from the boss to my coworkers thanking the boss for this great informative email in a huge paragraph. He thinks he's being funny, but I cringed so hard reading it that I want to somehow tell him how completely uncool and unfunny he is. I can't figure out any way to do it without hurting his feelings. He's a morbidly obese guy who's very sensitive despite constantly stating otherwise (I believe it's a cope).

He throws parties for people. Comes in hours early to decorate the office. Picks up custom cakes for them. I see him doing this stuff and I just feel such pity for him because he has no idea the kind of image he projects. Worst of all, he's noticed that coworkers seem to poke fun at the weirdos. There's this ugly middle aged lesbian woman who's ridiculed constantly (behind her back) because of how much she whines. He's realized that if you make fun of her, people laugh with him. So he's now constantly making gay jokes about her, sometimes to her face in front of other people. She's extremely close to going to HR about him and no doubt he's going to lose his job.

Men shouldn't do this kind of thing, in my opinion. My coworkers are starting to think he's getting weird, probably bi-poilar. I know he's lonely and has no life. He rented an expensive limo/bus for his birthday and invited a lot of coworkers out to go bar hopping with him all night but apparently most of the people bailed after dinner. So he rode around this huge limo with two other guys who probably stayed out of pity. He's the kind of guy who tries to buy his friendships but it's not really working.

Is there any way you guys can think of to tell him how effeminate he's acting? That maybe he should consider therapy or at least medication? Feels like everyone's too afraid to do it and I'm tired of watching this guy crash and burn looking like a fool.

Tell them you're considering the offer however your current job pays more and raises are expected in July. This might curb them to offer a higher salary. Might not though. It's a gamble worth taking in my opinion.

Tell and briefly explain to him that he is an obnoxious faggot
Pussy footing around it is a woman's behavior and you'll be an hypocrite if you do so
Naked truth straight to the face or just let shit hit the fan on its own

thx for the tip friend. Just registered there and gonna place an order in a bit.

Its so weird reading this. I'm a brainlet so I come from the blue collar world, you would just get called a faggot to your face the first day acting like that at the jobs I've worked. You might even get smacked.

Warehouse work or anything nightshift

Do nothing. Its none of your business desu. Let him crash and burn and maybe he will actually draw a lesson from it. When you try to come out to normal-faggots with reason or logic they don't internalize it in any way and just sense it as a personal attack. You don't owe him shit and trying to help this guy can only end either neutral or negatively for you personally.

If you tell him straight he won't listen. The only way he's going to learn is the hard way.

>doesn't involve complex thought

Why would you avoid that? Problem solving, creativity and complex thought are the only interesting things in this world in my opinion

At that age he'll probably just kill himself desu.

Ok, I agree. Nobody else has tried to tell him so I shouldn't either. I don't want him to get fired for being a retard but I doubt he'd listen to me if I did spell it out for him.

i have 3 days off a week and make enough money to live comfortably so i guess i cant complain

Attached: 1524450205594.png (1400x1050, 340K)

Cheat day was yesterday. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Got in like 5,000 calories.

Now back onto diet for rest of week of 1,200 calories.

I wish I could stop making mistakes so often. Lately it's been fashion. Over the last couple years I went from 4xl shirts to Large sizes and it seems that I have to fail and waste money before I realize what dumb decisions I made.

Last year I threw out all my old nasty socks and bought one of those 18 packs of black hanes ankle socks so I wouldn't have to pair them together, looking for their mates after laundry day. After awhile I realized how stupid that was. How black socks don't go with everything. How uncomfortable and low quality they are. So now I have to start buying ~$50 worth of socks that are actually decent and varied. I have no fashion sense. I've been trying to rely on /fa/ for advice and it's been generally good except for the idiotic decisions I made before trying to research what looks good. So many mistakes with my shoes that I have a closet full of them, like a woman, and only wear a couple decent pairs. Buying the wrong color, or the wrong type of converse. Getting black shoes at walmart so they'd go with my black pants... only to find out nobody wears black pants. Wasting money on a ton of hanes v neck undershirts before realizing after a couple washes they go to absolute shit AND v necks look stupid unless you're wearing mediums. Getting boat shoes... but the wrong color AND type so I look like some idiot in some boat shoe/sneaker hybrid. Got them just because "they were on sale cheap!"... Switched out to slim fit chinos because "thats what people wear now!" until I found out the fine print was "...that's what thin people wear, not 38/36" waist guys"

Being a fatass for so long ruined my fashion sense I should have grown with. But the cargo shorts I work as a piggu were a bad decision then just like eating doritos, m&m's, and mountain dew's were. But now I'm over 30 and have to look better or I'm afraid I'll be alone together.

Any other 25+ dress like shit, trying to improve?

>I'm afraid I'll be alone together
lol wut
just stop trying so hard to impress other people, the only way you are going to stand out is if you stop being a pussy and just dress how you like
unless you act like yourself youll end up with people you dont relly like

*forever. Whoops.

also
*the cargo shorts I wore*

Fuck man I just got home from work, drank a few beers on the way home, and I gotta go to a family dinner in a half hour. I'm smoking a joint right now and everyone's gunna know I'm half drunk and high I probably shouldn't of drank and smoked. I don't really want to go but I have to, I only have one grandparent left and I haven't seen her since Christmas and its was her 90 something birthday a few weeks ago so I feel bad. Hopefully I drive ok and no one mentions me being fucked up, wish me luck guys I hope this goes fast, I wanna just sit at home and get more high and play vidya.

>cargo shorts
did you really had to choose the most generic fat guy look you could think of

I got a job programming (web dev) with an econ/business degree. A bachelor's too. Some coworkers have no degree

kek, same boat user it fucking sucks

Me. My mother has bought me clothes all my life and still does. I have no fashion sense and if it were up to me I'd dress like an idiot. My mother and my brother do have several clues about what looks good on me and so I let them choose.
The only clothes I really like are jackets and coats, they're comfy in winter and keep me warm. I have bought two coats this year and I wore onenof those almost until April.

When you're 400lb you don't care about looks. All you care about is comfort. Also, big enough pockets to hold my nintendo DS in college.

I was truly a pathetic being...

I think you are over thinking it. 30 popular male fashion style is about wearing well fitting and good quality clothes with simple colors. You should honestly get girls that fit your body well and make you feel comfortable. As in fitting your body well, you should try to figure out what your body look like ie, short legs, long torso, and small shoulders might looks terrible with baggy clothes. You should look up what kind of clothes look good with your body type.
I wish, I could go shopping with you..

i alaways hated going to family reunions, at least drink a lot of water, it will make you feel better
just eat and use some bullshit excuse to get out

>dress like shit
Yes
>trying to improve
Trying is the first step of failing

Already on it leaving now maybe I will phone post while drunk, I have a xanax for when I get home I will be too fucked if I take it now. Don't wanna do this but some times got just gotta do what ya gotta do.

Yeah, I guess I'm learning. But I've wasted hundreds of dollars on clothes/shoes I never wear in that failure. Now I know I need to buy quality clothes instead of relying on the cheap shit. Unfortunately I still want to wait until I can fit into medium sizes well before I do another wardrobe overhaul like I did from 2xl walmart crap to large.

>Shouldn't of
Learn English user

>started working out
>immediately get gf

blackpill was a lie

theres gotta be someone you like on your family, at least one

My day has been pretty good. I started my job hunt for when I graduate with my master's in the fall. I already have three offers. It was scary quitting a full time job to work on my master's full time but it's already paying off and now I don't have to work a job that makes me want to kill myself.

I think, that is a really good idea.
I haven't been dressing well either. The last three years my weight sky rocket(120-150lbs). I finally have time to wear my cute clothes but, can't fit into them.

i got my brother to drive at the last minute. Im outside the place now smoking a cigarette alone about to go in.

It's a merchandising job. It's what I do now.

>free food
>at least try to talk to someone for a bit
>you can always pretend to feel tired or whatever if you want to elave early

this actually helps to not feel like shit while in there

The only privilege of waging is that you can be "tired". Heck, just make up a lie about how there were few people at work due to illness or anything.

vocaroo.com/i/s1TkukKeZYo5

Yeah that seems about right. Text is king, anf its easier to do it on social media

Im back smoking a cigarette outside phone posting like a fag but i got more beer since its free. It wasnt so bad but i know people know im drunk since i never talk this much. They got me talking about work, oh boy i went off about how shit it is and started revealing my power level when the convo went to movies and I started talking about comics and how shits different. Hope i get home soon so I can take that xanax and relax.

westworld is just too convoluted now. Maybe I'm just a brainlet, but I just finished watch s2e2 and I have no idea whats going on
