Is anybody else not able to find a decent fucking job?

I'm scrolling through indeed. It's all 3 years experience, 5 years experience required. Licenses required. Blah blah. There don't seem to be any unskilled labor jobs which are what I always used to fall back on.

The jobs I have applied for don't respond. Farms don't seem to hire. There's various hard labor jobs but they only pay like 14 an hour.

All the old people parrot this "nobody wants to work" crap.

Well, where the fuck can I find some real motherfucking work that doesn't pay less than a living wage? Fucking 1 br apts are 1800+ a month and I'm not paying that on 500 a week.

Yeah I've been doing odd jobs too. Maybe a job a month at this point. Idk why but I just can't find a lick of fucking work anywhere.

I second. If I had the people skills to do it, I would 100% have dropped everything and started my own handyman/contracting/remodeling business long ago.

Every other ditsy whore I know is making bank doing commercial cleaning. Seems to be the way to go. Handyman/ remodeling really doesn't make a whole lot unfortunately. It's just a living.

I used to work for a residential remodeler who charged $60/hour plus material. He hadn't advertised for years but was so busy with repeat customers that he had to turn people down regularly. Funnest job I ever worked, hands down.

That 60 an hour becomes 25 an hour really quick when you add things up.

When you're self employed and being paid in cash though, you can get around a lot more than you otherwise could.

Why not open a business?

I'd recommend working for a hospital as a secretary or a transporter. It's chill, indoors, and you meet ppl. Also some income while you work on your business.
