It is a sweet deal, especially the pay of the job, when i transferred my pay a little over doubled. Went from 45k to 95k a year, im super glad i got in, its genuinely a based workplace.

>he gets to sleep

>was about to quitand follow my dreams
>instead theyve offered me a promotion to department head
shit guys i don't think i can

Thats pretty fucking amazing user, nice art

Very nice user do you frequent /ic/? I feel you on the materials. Fortunately I used to get free charcoal and paper from my old uni.
>Wdym man
Just had a lot of shit happen at once, coupled with a soul crushing job where you get cursed out on the regular, it makes you give up on a lot. I wrote and drew a comic book once and even sold it at smaller comic con won't say which one because it's personally identifying info but that was the height of my art. Was a lot of fun.
What do you do user that's one fucking hell of a pay raise
Oh no another broken soul
>Dreams
Dreams are over rated. I squashed my dreams. I am now completely focused on career development. I have given up.

Im a automotive service technician, apparently where i live 45k was under what even complete newbies make (i think 55k is average starting) and since i had worked for 5 years and the skills to prove it, when i switched places they gave me the actual cash i should be making. Some newbies make even upr to 70k around here so 95k after 5 years isnt too bad, especially given the popularity of the garage i work at and my personal skills.

Very very nice user is it difficult work? What are the hours like? Hopefully you can retire at 40 with the money you're making. I'd be super frugal and invest in some crypto.

Somewhat difficult, mostly in knowledge though, unless we get some car dude asking for something insane, its usually sinple stuff. Id say 40% of it is oil changes, tire alignments, and spark plug replacements. We have huge fans at the back of the shop blowing air so even if its 95 out it feels maybe 76 with the fans. Boss is good on letting me take breaks since he knows i get my work done. The hours are flexible really, i can change mine if i wanted, but i chose to work all my hours in bulk because i like to do a bunch of work all at once and then have a longer break, so 3 days of work and 4 days of break works great.
I cant say i live frugally, but i do have a bit of financial OCD if that makes sense. I make about 8 grand a month, but i limit my monthly spending to exactly 3. The rest goes into savings. 3k a month isnt really frugal though desu, i spend alot of it on vidya and books, ive bought every Stephen king book i can get my hands on.
I doubt ill retire by 40 though, my family has been cursed with insanely long lifespans and 100 seems to be the average age we live to, hell my great grandpa didnt even need a can until he was 98, so im planning to have enough money put away to last that long. I have 300k put away as of now, and at my current rate i should be able to put away 600k more every decade since i put 60 grand away every year, i can retire at 50 with about 1.5 million and that will let me live to 100 with 30k to spend each year too, so ill retire a bit early and not have to make any big lifestyle changes either.

this shit is illegal in any NORMAL country but "noooooooo t-thats socialism! y-you can't pass laws that protect wagies from being exploited!!"

Op is a slave what do you expect

That's actually dependant on your workplace. If I get called out past 10pm I add however much time I had to be out to my start time. So if I get called at 9pm and get home at 11:00 which happens a lot for me I start at 9:00 instead of 7:00.
But shit man our security at my Coop doesn't have this shit happen to them.
