>mfw there's 22-23 year olds right now making 80+k a year
bro I've been rejected from burger king while being in college :D dont give up my man keep grindin
mfw there are 22-23 year olds that are dead now and those that are living in moms basement as neets and those that run own businesses and still eat shit and those who made millions with bitcoin and those who have aids but have to somehow try to live their life to end
Just start making money then do the fuckever you want .
If you have any piece of shit car, deliver pizzas, I make about 15 bucks an hour to drive around and sing along terribly to iron maiden
Also, in my experience, most pizza places are desperate for workers due to needing over a dozen drivers for a store and a somewhat high turnover rate. I got a call back the same day I applied, interview the next, done with training and working within the week
It wears the shit out of your car, though, and if your car is already shit, what do you think happens when it breaks down on the job?
This is why you spend 20 hours a week filling out behavioral surveys.
Gotta learn how to fix it. I used to do this job with a car that broke down almost monthly, it's annoying but it's decent money for entry level. Also, most stores are starting to get company cars, although some franchises have a minimum employment requirement before you can drive it (mine ignores that though)
If it's an ancient piece of shit and you have tools/parts, sure.
Also, if you don't have a really high cost of living, you can just start making payments on a new car after a little bit. Just started making payments on a new Kia because I got tired if always having to fix the old car.
This guy has a point. You're already slated for min wage with a McD's, exactly the same as you'd get selling the fucking phones. Go for the tipping job with Pizza, and spend your money on cheap food like beans and rice.
Better than being unemployed
The speed of god is faster than light because he is all around us at all times.

Not even good enough to stand behind a register doing basic transactions
Not even good enough to be a loser
cause you a bitch who goes in applying for a job. i go in with the attitude like i already have it and its my choice weather i want it or not.
I know that's porn. Post it.
Where the fuck do you work that you can just do javascript and not any of the webdev APIs, and that will pay you so much to use a fucking scripting language?
Try and get your life together faggot, minimal wage isn't that bad. crawl your way up you shitty fuck.
Contractor. How much experience do you have? I have been coding for 5 years professionally.
Can you tell me any good resources to start? I'm 22 and learn fast, but don't know any great places to start.
WHERES MY SZECHUAN SAUCE BITCH
I love you
Sadly nope, or at least the original wasn't. Just Christ-chan, made by Sup Forums because the only thing more degenerate than degeneracy is traditionalism.
When you say "Javascript" what do you use exactly? Node? React? Can you explain a bit further please? Thanks.
I fucking hate that shit, OP. You could be more than qualified for even the most mundane positions, and they'll still bullshit you even after having you go through an interview.
Not to mention the auto-generated rejections they give.
>although you have the right skills and would be an asset to our team,
>we've decided to move on to another applicant
It's like the employment equivalent of
>you're a smart, sweet, good guy and any girl would be lucky to have you
>but I think we should just be friends
And then they either never talk to you again, or they talk to you only to complain about the new guy they got instead. This is the kind of shit for why I'm suck at my current shitty job.
Fuck, thread got me mad. Good luck, OP.
McDonald's pays $10/hr so at least it's not minimum wage.
Don't judge a goldfish for its tree climbing skills.
I only have 4 years professional experience. I know location matters a lot. I'm in Northeast Ohio.
I'd say you talk to your recruiter about a pay raise. From what I've heard from coworkers, my recruiter is probably billing $50/hr for my position, and I'm only getting 35$
Friend zoned by corporations.
It's ok. They aren't people anyway.
Haha yeah been there, and I have a college degree.
its more than being qualified. if you have a shit personality i dont wanna hire you. i hire people all the time being a manager, i rarely even look at your resume. i talk to you
Go to codecademy.com
Learn JavaScript, probably easiest language to get a well paying job
Apply for an apprenticeship in a trade of your choice. All you need is a highschool diploma, nothing else. Starting pay is usually around $12-$15/hr. Not great but at least it's not minimum wage. It usually only takes a few years to work your way up to making a decent salary. I'm 23, started an apprenticeship when I was 19 and now I make $72,000 a year.
people can be trailed, an idiot is an idiot. unfixable. theres a lot of "qualified" people out there id never hire. i hire go-getters even if they aren't qualified. it just means i can train them, the way i want them to be
Hey man, theres nothing wrong with working at mcdonalds in the US.
Do your best and work for somehting liek 6 months and keep going up until you become a manager. They earn quite well.
>27yo loser burger flipper here I come...
better than a unemployed 27yo loser.
....I honestly don't have a comeback to that.
How are they going to determine
>personality
based on one (1) interview (during which I answered as honestly and clearly as possible), or even if the application process is almost entirely online? Also, many people tend to be so banal, toxic, and downright reprehensible that it makes you wonder how in the flying fuck they got the job(s) they did, going by what you're saying, and not be fired.
I'm 27, make 90k a year as a software engineer in LA.
Agreed. I have a friend who worked his way up from cashier to manager to owner. He makes easily $100,000 a year and it goes far since he lives in shitsville.
most likely hes talking shit.
if not, he's probably a node.js dev.
I'm full stack dev. We use a nodejs framework called Hapi.js. its pretty cool, but I prefer Express.js
i agree with you man, its a brutal process these days its not like it use to be. especially at my work. i try to hire in person as much as i can but technically im supposed to tell them to apply online, it then applies to ALL the stores and it goes through an automated system, gives me the 3 best applicants. i hate it. you cant just go off of someones resume and application. mind you, im a general manager in a retail store. its not rocket science
i can train customer service, i look for go-getters who aren't gonna pussy foot around and talk. same with these cell phone guys OP was applying for, they want a go-getter whos gonna SELL SELL SELL. make them MONEY and not stand around talking about how drunk you got on the weekend
self taught 3D artist here, 76k a year. I work for dream-works, and it is a dream. 26 btw
>7 years call center experience
>apply to new call center
>2 interviews
>both go great
>denied position
>"Maybe you're just overqualified"
Everything is a lie. Experience doesn't get you anywhere. I've worked for call centers my entire adult life and still have to take entry level positions. I've only been promoted in one company that shut down. I'm currently doing entry level outbound. I just want a QA position that's all but they won't give it to me because there aren't any openings.
Don't believe the work experience meme. It's all shit.
Post some of your best personal work
you must interview horribly then. best way to get where you want is networking, friends and friends will always get you in, and then showing that you're competent at communicating normally.
