Sounds like someone needs to enlist, get a clearance, and go work on defense projects.

Where did it go so right Jow Forums?

Same here, except I didn't get a meme degree because I'm not taking on that sort of debt when I can gain experience/connections while still getting paid. I worked at a couple startups which decided that I should also sysadmin and be a fucking janitor. I wasn't about to do the work of three people for the price of one, so I left and got HVAC certs. I like being on my feet all day better than sitting on my ass and I don't have to deal with obnoxious bugmen and trannies, and the pay is slightly better. I also work less hours so I have time with my wife and child. The tech industry is soul crushing and degenerate. Get out ASAP.

I'm the opposite.

Sucks to be you, I guess you should have gone off the beaten path.

the problem is one has no idea what kind of jobs there really are in the world.

>Go into uni
>Do not study
>Collect 200%
>Lag badly behind
I just dont know to study. I have no time managment skills, time just flies by and I find myself in the evening done nothing

Read the power of habit

What kind of jobs are there friend?
Idk what I would like to do but if I had all options laid out it might be easier to choose.
I dont wanna be a web dev

>blaming society for your own mistakes
Great job!

>It's 2006
>all of my friends and everyone I know is going into STEM fields
This isn't going to end well for everyone...
Some, yes. Everyone? Not so well.
>Study trades
>become a contractor
>work on houses with a cool crew of dudes
>singing karaoke in empty houses in the middle of nowhere drunk as fuck
>working with power tools being a grade A man
>get paid way more than I would as a code monkey
>get to watch half of my friends from High School fail at life, die or become homeless
I REGRET NOTHING

Do they fucking pay people for being sick there

They pay people for being unfit to work, yes
And schizoaffective is not great to have when you are doing any kind of work. Not even fast food or call center shit. At least when your going through an episode. Right now I can barely be outside withoutalmost having a mental breakdown and screaming "stop putting your spirit cock near my asshole faggot"

did he ever put his spirit cock inside your asshole?

Have you tried yoga?

this is pretty much me except i make 6 figs. programming used to be my passion, now it's just a chore.

Would rather not have a stranger do that
There's only one faggot I would let put his spirit cock inside of me
Yoga and meditation mindfulness just makes me focus even more on the delusions and hallucinations, but yes I've tried yoga (not really my choice, just mental wards not letting go of pseudoscience bullshit)

what's your spirit cock?
mines' Terry Crews' cock

Ah you don't understand. You ever seen those feminist memes where they're like "he mind raped me"?
Yeah, it's just their regular old cock but like a JoJo stand of themselves sneaking up behind you and humping your butt
Very uncomfortable, especially when it's your brother or grandfather [spoiler]or your mother[/spoiler]

Well, my little brother is like an extravert but not my stepbrother (I mean what's the word again, the extravert is in the same category as the sexual antis) and while I don't mind him in and of itself I find it more uncomfortable as he's really uncomfortable when people stare at him in the street because he is the exception to the rule. But I do get a kind of uncomfortable sense of fear when there are people watching. (The creepy people are a different breed)

pls delet op

>EE
What is this? eletrical engineering?

kek I got no job so I can't get a gun to end myself. Be happy to have something to do and sideways aim for something else. Do not become NEET

>competing with pajeets
That's a problem only the first time. After a company gets some pajeet code they learn to never repeat the same mistake again

>tfw read first line as "be high school shooter"

you sound like a faggot, you have no clue about "real" work... work a construction job and then tell us about your shitty "codemonkey" job, you absolute queer
