working from home full time removed office social dynamics and revealed who the stars were. unfortunately that was me, and my workload increased significantly because i was the reliable one. i ended up quitting that job. fortunately someone else in management also quit and hired me at a different company for $175/hr lel

I ended up switching companies during rona too, previous place went into administration and suddenly i ended up with the corporate bullshit of wearing "different hats" aka do 5 peoples job for the price of 1. Which is funny because my industry is booming during the pandemic.
Ended up switching for an increased salary (45% increase), better benefits and a higher position.

When I’m alone I invest in a lot of different things in small amounts. I constantly check on them because they’re volatile. I also will enroll in online classes when I’m going to be alone for long periods of time, I’ve chipped away slowly at two degrees and am about to finish a third. Also try a hobby that lets you be alone for extended time but will take you outside of your bubble too. I make armor cosplays and will spend months building something to take out to cons to meet people but can stay home most of the time while indulging in the hobby.

This is accurate - consulting is a "white glove" service aka you make a very minute change and build a whole deck on the subject.. typically consultants are hired to fill labour gaps when an organisation doesn't have an inhouse team to fill the void but somehow I am employed by a FTS250 company to do consulting for FTS50/100 companies. Talking PNG,BAT,J&J... I honest to god delivery very little value for the amount that is billed

>>26017350
I walked in and gave the hiring manager a strong and firm handshake.
I have a degree which is relevant to my field but that didn't really help me stand out during application processes (this is like my 3rd job) so i upskilled in my spare time. The industry I work in is still developing so its relatively easy to move up once you get your foot in the door.

Just get some office exp and upskill in your spare time. There are dozens of cheap online certifications that can give you credibility and make you stand out.

My uncle was a trucker and he did it because it was by far the highest pay he could make (high school dropout, hard worker but mentally he's a little slow). I imagine being a little slow helps with monotonous, repetitive jobs because your mind doesn't wander. Working as a trucker would drive me insane but I have some really comfy memories of riding with my uncle when I was a kid. He lived near me and every summer when I would visit my grandparents he would get routes from our town to theirs several states away and let me ride there and back with him.
