why did the owners not just tow you up the hill?

>>15206715
Because you are disposable. Why tow him when it’s easier to bitch about the delivery not being on time?

lol if I were the home owner i would have taken a video of you and posted it on instagram with the title "idiot pizza delivery guy can't get out of my driveway" then I would have called the pizza place and complained to your manager about you tearing up my driveway

Not about to risk that hag from making me look bad to possible future employers when I quit. Now I expect a call or response from HR even though I told them I don't want to deal with this. Going to ignore it, I've made it clear to HR I quit. Infuriating how they keep trying to enslave me after quitting and trying to question me. What's with this prevalant "need" for sone of them to be in other people's business anyways?

Fucking niggers.

>>15207383
Didn’t know there was such a thing as job abandonment versus quitting. How are they not one in the same? Two weeks notice ahead of time?

>>15208378
Job abandonment happens when you just no call no show and don't even give them a heads up.

>>15208378
One looks worse then the other if a company does a background check. I stopped doing two weeks notices as most companies dont give you such a courtesy and I'd likely get screwed over if I did it with the last 2 companies.

>>15208516
How you left a prior job doesn't show up in a background check. All they can do is call your previous job and ask how long you worked there.

>2 weeks notice

>>15206431
>Work 50 hour week from last sunday

>Have to go face the aftermath tommorow

Usually I don't say no, but the fact I woke up at 2AM and saw she sent the text at 10PM just fucking enraged me, I ain't working 60hr weeks fro minimum wage bitch I value what's left of my mental health.

>>15208749
What possible aftermath could come from that? Does she really just assume you're always willing to work OT and takes it as a personal insult when you're not?

>>15208749
It’s a good skill to have, learning how to tell people no will get you far in life.

>>15208692
Lol i dont do those anymore even though the last two were office jobs.

>>15208749
One of my previous jobs only gave me issues when id say no. They really expect me to say yes when i was the one given the shirt end of the stick by being the go to guy. Hated that job, used up as much of my sick time as I could before quitting on them but their systems were off and i got screwed out of wasting an additional chunk of time

I'm starting to realize that half of /biz/ are underage losers working minimum wage jobs for pocketchange (Or at the very least I hope they're underage because I honestly can't comprehend a full grown man working for such shit pay)

I feel you and I think I was in a similar position.
Eventually I started looking into different small tasks you can complete for businesses (web related) that appear big (like increasing security etc). Started advertising myself, created a few small applications, worked on these additional projects in my meantime.
Eventually the subscription applications started bringing $50k+ a year, so I decided just to hire two guys, each for $12.5k a year (it's a really an hour a day job), one does the tasks, one looks for new clients.
Now I'm pretty much getting $25k a year for nothing and I'm still working on other small SaaS applications in the meanwhile, my goal is to get to get to $100k a year just by being a boss and after that I think I'll have enough of an "ecosystem" under me to build further apps without my input.

This is the last time anons I put my 2 week in notice time to go NEET mode.

I don't have any job lined up but I've got $20k networth as 22year old so I can coast for a couple months until I find something to make more money or my personal businesses start doing better

>>15207986
Surely you don't mind the smell, wagie?

>>15210301
Get your networth to 100k first.

>>15207457

I feel no specific drive to accomplish any more in life than I already have (learned a language and know high-level math)
Should I just kms myself now?

work 7 days a week on a rotating schedule that never ends. Go to Boston, then New York City, then Cleveland, then go to Atlanta, GA.

I only get to request 1 day off in entire month.

I make around $50-70k a year but I feel like I deserve more for all the time I put in.

That place sounds real nasty. I'd be out of there real quick. I've read of something very similiar where they would drag people and touch their penises and hump each other. This was done to people who DIDN'T want to be treated like that. Oh and it was guy on guy too. Nasty and gay. The rage that would overtake me, I dont give a fuck if there's 5 of them Im gonna start fighting on the spot no amount of money from a lawsuit would recover the absolute devastation my ego would feel if I just allowed such degeneracy to happen to me.

Its 60k and not entirely terrible as a job, but my supervisor is slightly verbally abusive and it is ultimately not the specific subfield in tech I want to be in. It's application support/IT, and I want to get into software dev/engineering.

In truth, I want to start my own business. So, I think I'll be doing that/working on that.

I'm tired of not making enough money. I just want to die everyday I wake up. All my coworkers are 30+ years old and they act like everything is fine, but I know that they are dead inside.

Hi boss, so I’ve been working this job for a couple years now, as you know of course all of my previous fellow coworkers were fired for theft or complete incompetence but I’ve been diligent for these 2 years so far and was wondering-
>yeah yeah get to the chase. Have you been remembering to smile and offer promotional items to customers?
I uhh yes of course every time
>good good...anyways Lisa told me your tray was short 3 cents last week. Did you miscount change again?
Uhh I don’t think so uhh oh yeah I remember now I needed extra coins but no one would get them for me so I had to give one customer a nickel which is why I was short the 3 cents
>hmmm well okay but don’t do that again, it’s not a big issue but as per company policy this will need to be written up. Nothing personal, just the way it works around here. Heck if I were on a register and short 3 cents I’d be written up too, and I’m the manager ahahah
yeahhh ha ha thank you boss
>so why’d you stop by again? What’s on your mind
Oh uhh I was basically just wondering if I could get a-
>oh Anon, could you rearrange those display items at the front of the store when you get a chance? It’s been needing that for a while now, I don’t know why Carlos hasn’t done it yet
Of course boss right on it.
>alright great, thanks Anon. I’m going for my lunch break now and you leave soon right, so likely I’ll be seeing you next week
Uhh yep have a good weekend

Cruel cruel world. Seriously though, I hate having to show up at specific times. Taking breaks only when the employer wants, not when I want. Forced to work long hours or you will be laid off.

I used to hate my job but then I realized I could really work on myself and I made changes over time. I've been at my job for 6 years now and I have no reason to leave anymore. If a better opportunity presents itself as I continue to grow, then I might make the transition, but I could retire where I'm at

>>15212611
Oh, did I also mention that the bump was to the the new minimum salary of all employees in this position? Did I also mention that 6 months ago I received a 3.5% performance based raise? And that the performance raise was not factored into the new salary?

Basically I worked my ass off for 2 years, for a 6 month temporary 3.5% raise, only to have it wiped out by the new minimum salary I would have gotten anyway. Could've slacked off this whole time and be earning the same exact pay.

Awesome story, happy for your adventure, really!

I am a bit confused about your $18/h US wage as an engineer though?

I live in the US and have a BSc in computer science from my home country.

> Got my first job in the US via hired.com, was offered $110K/y + stock options
> They never asked for references or GPA, but did ofc require multiple tests
> After 5 months I got promoted and $25K raise
> After 1st performance review, got $5K raise + more stock options
> Relocated so now I work fully remote
> Semi-passive extra income of $20K for selling software online

My advise: Study computer science, if you live on the US, public colleges are fine. From the candidates I have interviewed, avoid bootcamps/"coding academies" at all cost.

Currently on a train with 6 colleagues. They are all sitting together and talking. I'm sitting alone away from them and shitposting on my phone. Sums up my life desu

People make mistakes and things change all the time at the hotel but all of a sudden management is scrutinizing my actions but only focusing on bad stuff while others were getting away with murder.
Case in point: a sports team would stay regularly and one of the reception thots falls in love and types up a love letter with contact details to one of the players. Extremely unprofessional and against company conduct policies. She's encouraged to do this and no one bats an eye.

Salary of $80,000 + $6k EoY bonus. Rent is only $400 (live in Chicago instead of W coast meme city). Plan is to work 10 years total, hopping between jobs every 1.5 to 2 years, taking 3 to 5 months off in between jobs for NEET and travel. 10 total work years of this, trading with 40% of my salary, at 25% yearly compounding gains and I can retire with $1.5m saved at age 42, having worked very little my entire 20's.

No a bad life. Lonely still, but have friends I could hang out with more if I wanted to, also.

Start doing deadlifts. Your back muscles are too weak to hold up your weight and literally no chiropractor is telling you this because that's 90% of their client base.

I don't have a discord.
Just look for what you think people might need. I started with writing an audit app for security on webpages (checking headers, whether links are correct, integrated few open source tests into it) and turned it into a lead generator. People who were getting shit results started reaching out to me on their own, and if they didn't, I got their e-mail so I reached out to them eventually.
Just be smart about it and focus on the task at hand, the rest will come on its own sooner or later. Don't expect immediate results, just put shit out there, world is a big place, you will find someone interested in your stuff eventually.

>release the company is pretty much kept profitable by the bluecollar workforce who is actually making the steel and the remaing 30% of the "white" collars who are engineers and guys who worked their way up the ladder like me and understand the process and make the hard decissions.

Its crazy, there are more white collar jobs in the plant then blue collar ones, and these fuckers are activly trying to "manage" the workforce and tell them what to do while not knowing shit about what they are talking about.

It's weird to see all you faggots complaining about office work after having worked in a warehouse walking between shelves for 9 hours a day.
Can't even put an earbud on to listen to some bullshit because of safety regulations, the performance of every worker is traced and if you're slacking the supervisor will be up your ass. Thank god it's just temp summer work, the pay is totally not worth it.

>>15207574

Sadly the kind of people who will use their stroller to steal shit usually don't display very good decision making behaviors. I've seen what the allotment is in my state for a mother of one, two, or three kids as far as food stamps, and I'll tell you they ate better than I did as a cashier. Diapers, formula, milk, cheese, bread, eggs, meat, vegetables, etc and in pretty healthy quantities. I was clipping coupons and catching sales to be able to afford meat that wasn't hot dogs, and I'd ring up a food stamp family and after they paid with food stamp, they'd empty the rest of their cart full of soda, lobster, steak, candy bars, etc. And pay cash.

Not demonizing the food stamp recipients here, but I am pointing out that in most of these stealing situations, it wasn't being poor that led to the stealing. The poor in America eat like the wealthy in most of the world.

Subsidized housing, to the point of being pretty much free, daycare paid for in full by the state d.o.f.s. if needed, free health insurance, generous food stamp allotment, and welfare bucks on top of that..... and what do the welfare bucks have to pay for? What the fuck is left? Car and car insurance? Phone? There's no "need" for the stealing. Fuck that noise.

work in some grocery store for a month .
the manager knows that I cant work on fridays due to uni .she changes my shift so I have to work on a friday but does not tell me shit and then she got mad that I didnt come and tells me she needs someone more reliable .so I quit and then hear from a friend that the store got robbed at gun point a few months later.its been 4 years since then and I think I dodged a bullet in more ways than one.

I get it, man. I work in an office now, and it's its own kind of hell, but I would not go back to warehouse or factory work for anything. It is so much worse than office work.

Honestly though, fuck em. Can’t wait to see the boomers who didnt save on the streets.

Is you me? Other anons is right. You have a soft tissue problem. Usually the problem is in your ass and hamstrings. Deadlifts are king. My favorite lift. But can fuck you up worse unless form is spot on. It's really easy to lift a lot of weight with DLs with the incorrect muscles(not the ones you're trying to Target) because it's a big compound lift that uses a lot of the body, and when you have weak shit already the body will compensate with other muscles to finish the lift. This fucks your form up. Every 10° of flexion in spine exponentially increases the load in the opposite direction of flexion in disks. This is how people rupture or bulge disks in DL.

Squats are better to start. Do goblet squats to get form right until muscle memory burns in the correct movement. Google hip hinge and squats when you transition to barbell. Remember to stick your ass out, try not to let knees drift over toes, and keep looking straight ahead to avoid neck problems.


MOST IMPORTANT MOST IMPORTANT
Stretch. This was the holy Grail for me. I went from DL 500 at 180 bodyweight, built like a brick for my frame(30 in waist) to injuring my back packing boulders for a retaining wall. fought all the same shit as you. MRIs, x Ray's, chiropractic work, massage, dry needling, electroshock therapy, physical therapy, I did it all. Nearly five years and no one could ever find something and say this is it. Simple stupid but stretching was it. Find hamstring stretches and ass/glute stretches. Do these first. Do them every day. After you can regularly touch the floor with your fingers when in shoes, start incorporating LIGHT goblet squats. I'm talking bodyweight to 25 lb dumbbell light. Sets of 10. Start with two days of two sets, day of rest, then three days of two sets, then two days of rest. Repeat. After second cycle go to three sets a day. After third, or fourth depending on how you feel, go to four sets. Don't increase weight.

Your shit is fucked up. This is not weightlifting. It is rehab/phys therapy. Even if your muscles can take more weight faster, they are not the whole picture. Ligaments, tendons and other soft tissue is also weak and will develop slower than your muscle. If you have been fighting this for a while, you probably have reinjured it multiple times. This is not the time when more is better. I cannot stress that enough. Kid gloves, man. Kid gloves. If you reinjure again, you're fucked. Back to square one in probably worse shape. You can't pull out of a death spiral nosedive in a plane (which is you) by making a light switch manuever change. The plane will disintegrate then you're FUCKED.

Go slow. Listen to your body. If you think you should stop, that this is enough for the day. Then do. But don't stop your program. Try to get to ten sets of ten reps every workout day with 25lb dumbbell. Then you're ready for a light gym routine, which will further cement your recovery.

Most importantly, stretch. Every day. Just fucking do it. After 1-3 months of this, you should feel 100%. It's a trap. Since you've had the injuries, it'll all come back if you think it's fixed and neglect your exercises. Unless you do physical labor for a living, which might actually be a possibility once you rehab. It'll take a couple years of staying on top of this to get back to normal.
If you've had the MRIs and x-rays and no one can find the problem, it's not a disk or anything skeletal. That leaves soft tissue. If they can't find a torn ligament or something ruptured again with multiple MRIs, then it's a soft tissue injury that can be rehabbed with physical therapy.
