I wouldn't worry too much, the margins are fat enough at full retail that you can afford to sell inventory that didn't move at a loss.

Unless underage it’s as if you -want- the world to know you are a retard. You should start building a decent resume at 18, something respectable like working as a hotel receptionist if you can’t manage anything else.

>> No.14999637

kinda yeah but also being a non-retard in a retard field can let you drift up high enough to earn decent money pretty easily.

Most future employers would prefer that to a retail clothing store, tard. It’s not respectable for someone over 19 but it’s starter. Building a resume does take time.

well think about how how many people don't respect retail and don't want to stay in that job and think about how many people in it are just dumb.
someone has to show up and manage those people and they pay him more.
then someone has to show up and manage the managers and they pay him even more.
at some point good money is paid for a job they didn't go to college to do.

>turn 32 this year
>still working retail

I was a paramedic but just could handle it and became depressed then became a NEET but eventually got into retail and have been doing it for like the past 4 or 5 years :/

I'm afraid of trying anything else or going back to college incase I go through it all and finding out I'm not suited for the actual job.

what are my other options?

>> No.14999762

>>14999752
i'm only 24 but I was a dev for two years and hated it and now i'm working retail while I go back to school. my plan is to do something I find personally fulfilling. I had a job where I made good money but would just spend most of it on drugs and booze to cope with how unhappy i was. er, still am.

what do you enjoy doing anon? it could be worthwhile for you to pursue that. it's not too late for ya

All I do is restoration. Started as a personal hobby and turned into a living. It is the easiest way money has ever been made.
Furniture, cars, anything that can be restored and resold.
For fuck’s sake there are YouTube videos telling you step by step how to do this shit.
It’s astounding how lazy people are.

Maybe I'll look into doing that on the side for clothing items. I've gotten decently good at restoring leather items just for stuff that I've thrifted. Not a bad idea.

It’s not lazier to go to work for other people for years, having established a firm career and built your way to the top making six figures, tard

Same amount (or less effort) on your part, and you probably don’t make as much money as truly successful people

Good for you that you found a source of income being your own boss I guess, maybe I’d do that if I were autistic aswell and didn’t enjoy working around others
