I didn’t went anywhere and stood in my room 24, 25 and 26 as usual… Why can’t I just never wake up… I don’t wanna go to work, I hate the people there but I need money and I most likely get fired at January
Fuck life. Honestly
You got THREE WHOLE days off?
Here in the USA the only time off I got was the actual day of Christmas. Also on Christmas Eve I was forced to show up at work… only to be sent home after a couple of hours without pay for the rest of the day - not enough customers, which you would have thought they could have guessed at that in advance but… no, they wanted to have their cake and eat it too (and b/c of the power imbalance, they got it).
And I also worry about my personal job in January, plus there’s a nonzero chance that my entire country could literally engage in an actual, not-joking, full-on real & bloody civil war by then. Except that’s far more unlikely now b/c we simply & preemptively surrendered to the side that was pushing to do it. So… yay? (now, trans people will still be murdered, but we won’t call it that, b/c it’ll be “legal” - see the difference? yeah, it’s actually far worse in its way)
I’m honestly not trying to engage in a “life sux” competition with you - but rather trying to help show you that some things in your life are good, even as other things are surely bad, and while anyone’s feelings must always be treated as valid, I hope that you take into account the good things you have as well as the bad. B/c there ARE good things that you have, even as there are definitely also bad. You can make yourself feel worse by ignoring the former and focus exclusively on the latter, or some people do worse and reverse that, but if you want, you can be happier by aiming somewhere in the middle?
e.g., you don’t have to tell us, but if you want, you could try to find one thing that you enjoyed about those three days? Like, just before you lose your job (possibly, which you cannot control), at least you got to rest up a bit, which will help as you scramble to find a new one? Meh, you do you, I genuinely don’t want to come across as trying to tell you what you “must” do. But I did want to say that you could do that, if you wanted… and doing so might help you to be happier, which you do seem to want?
You could always try to do something and fail at it, then spiral deeper into depression.
Already done
I think it’s a cycle that reinforces itself. We work so much that we don’t have anything to do when we don’t work, so we just stay at home resting and recharging.
Then it’s work again…
At least if you do work, make sure to save as much as you can and put in stock market, so you can eventually stop working in a few decades…
Stock market? Isn’t that for educated people? I can’t with numbers
Don’t need to be educated to stick to an ETF tracking a broad market index fund like S&P500. Averaging 7-10% inflation adjusted per year for over a century now…
You’re speaking Chinese to me
The fact that you’d rather remain poor and dependent upon working rather than look up a couple of simple terms is baffling.
I told you, my brain isn’t for that, barely finished middle school
I mean I think im realtiely high in what folks would view as smart and I can’t invest at all. Since 2016 everything feels like a house of cards.
Then I’m double fucked and shouldn’t bother with that guy advice
I mean if you got a work plan that will do matching then grab what will get the matching but other than a benefit like that its better to save money so you don’t incur sudden debt than to invest to me. Its a much more guaranteed return. I mean you may make money with investments but if you have to stack debt on a credit card you will usually lose it much faster.
What line of work are you in? I’m in software… was unemployed for about 10 months last year, it was awful. I kind of snuck into my current role
Whereabouts do you live? I’m in the cold, cold part of USA
Dude I just do warehouse. My brain can’t do more than that… Somewhere in Europe
Many pharmaceutical companies have big warehouses, and pay pretty well
If you find a job opening that you like, paste it into ChatGPT, then give ChatGPT your resume and ask it to update so that it will look attractive for the hiring manager. ChatGPT is great for updating text to match other text
im going on just oer 3 months atm.
I hope you get something soon <3
me 2. Right now Im hoping its just been bad timing. By the time my search got going we were close to election followed by holidays. Crossing my fingers on january picking up in responses.
I feel for you. Super depressed and every time I wake up im like. damn it.
Why didn’t you go anywhere? You’re all over this community posting your misery but no matter how often you’re given the keys to making your life better you choose to ignore them. You have to do something. Doing nothing and expecting your life to magically change is just stupidity.
