Wanna be a bit more specific for us?

Name a well-paying industry that is not stressful

porn

Footballer

reality shows like the muritards keep pumping out
pop idol (in "music" or whatever)

Mo' money, mo' problems

Should have become a neet, wagey

Hip Hop

IT is not a well paying industry tho

Fitness

That is probably very stressful.

>Will be able to get the motion right? What about the emotion?
>What if I mess up at the end?
>Is my face camera-ready?
>Is my body camera-ready?
>Does my body language show confidence? Is confidence the goal here?
>Will people want to watch me more after this?

Which, incidentally, seem to be the same sort of questions that someone will ask themselves before a live presidential debate.

Movie

It depends on your skills

>tfw wageslave
>get up early while my NEET brother is still tucked into his racecar bed
>mummy is up making breakfast for us
>gives me eggs and oatmeal while my brother gets tendies with his favorite sauce (honey mustard)
>"pick up some more tendies on the way home from work sweetie"
>stuck in traffic like always
>boss is a dick and coworkers are fucking clueless
>lunchtime
>my brother snaps a picture of mummy giving him tendies in bed while I eat a baloney sandwich
>more traffic on way back home
>payday
>drop my check off at the bank and pick up some tendies for bro
>come home to bro enjoying tendies and hentai
>manage to say two words before I pass out from work
>fall asleep to the sound of my brother demanding more tendies from mummy
>hazy thoughts of all the money in the bank and no time to spend it
>realize getting a job was a mistake

feels good to be a neet

>flexible hours as long as I finish 40 hr/week
>usually in the office by 10 am, at 3-4 pm I hit the gym for 2 hours, then come back for leftover work or shit that has caused my head to hurt
This routine has managed to drag me in an enterprise engineering environment for the last 5 years. I imagine this is more stressful than dealing with actual tech illiterate people because
>engineers
>they think they know shit about IT
>they ask for the most ridiculous shit (see above)
>they think they know more about you and will hardly listen to any of your suggestions until their solutions start failing miserably (again, first point)
I guess with the pay, benefits, and other incentives - anyone will stick through this shit.
Find a better paying job maybe? That's a start.

he said "well paying".

99.9% of hip hop artists get ripped off.

>Find a better paying job maybe? That's a start.

How is that possible if all a person knows is computers lel

for now.
you'll hit the age of 40 and look how much life you missed out on, then probably kill yourself.

slightly depends on your skill, mostly depends on connections and circumstances like everywhere else

Tons of high paying job in niche but essential tech skills/knowledge.
Look into product life cycle management, anything with a production line will have something to do with it, and very few people are familiar with systems used in this thing. In fact, it was only after I landed the job that I heard about it, and we're also having a hard time finding new people to hire despite all these resumes with 10+ years of experience.

Interesting

There's also collaborative software. Any huge company will have bought one of their own and obviously will want people to maintain, customize, and enhance it.
These two things I've mentioned won't require you to learn anything harder than what a typical code monkey already knows - but specializing in them will give you that extra edge (as well as maybe a higher pay because you are "specialized" in a certain skill set the company needs)
"Specializing" does not mean that you will be stuck in these things, again, as mentioned any code monkey will be able to do this so naturally you will still be exposed to things that can be used in the whole IT field.

Everything I've mentioned is not as interesting as building rockets but they sure as hell pay good, besides, if it's research you're after, then you're shit out of luck unless you're really good at what you want to do. Really, really good.

>catching deadly diseases
>penis pump killing your dick
>Doing too many anal scenes will mess up your rear permanently

want more?

40 years of no happiness without work is more than you'll have you miserable wage slave cunt

Are you speaking from experience?

Working in IT caused me to wet my panties.

enjoy your slowly festering TBI

Yup, it sure is... people think it's all fun and games and coffee breaks, but they don't see the late nights and lost weekends that were spent working

MFW this umbrella is $100+

>tfw bought mine on my trip to Japan

Feels good man.

Well, I studied accounting and tax law. I really didn't think that one through. It's horrible.

Thank doge for my webshop so I can roll out of my bed and work in my underpants.

Whats the price in Japan, going there in a few months?

>he doesn't watch his employees engage in e-degeneracy and drop subtle hints that he knows but never explicitly

what?

I work as a help desk lead and I love my job.

Maybe try getting a job with a different company?

How can you enjoy help desk?

What the fuck are "tendies"?

Actually porn stars are heavily screened for STD's

>heavily screened for STD's

And outbreaks still happen

Oh god how wrong you are.

Is this some salty neckbeard meme?

None of these are stable careers and guaranteed jobs. For some of them you need to be born with specific qualities which are almost impossible to get otherwise(not being an ugly sack of shit, penis size, good physical genes etc) . Not to mention you can't do a lot of them beyond a certain age which is much lower than IT

Vast majority of people who go into any of those just fail and become something else or stay in entry level forever

Sure, once you get in and start working in them they could be less stressful, but you can't get into most of them with just trained skills and a diploma

>it's too stressful
>IT

doctors have a stressful job

you don't

neither do programmers

Unless you work in critical support

You just gotta find the right job. If your work is stressing you it's because stupid people create stressful environments.
