I'm a substitute teacher in a big city. I deal with niggers all day but have no motivation to find another job because I hate working with other adults. I hardly ever work 40 hours because I dread it.
>>767365314
If you can't beat them, join them. Become the nigger.
>>767365385
What exactly do you mean by this, anon?
>>767365314
Become the nigger, OP
>>767365547
What did he mean by this?
>>767365314
I guarantee working with other adults would be far superior to working with nigger teen/children.
And I'm convinced 95% of Americans dread going into work every day and genuinely hate their job. There's something very artificial about doing the exact same task for 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week that chafes at the human spirit.
BUT that being said, everyone hates their job. As I understand it, teaching jobs are hard to come by and I met a *ton* of trained/certified teachers while working retail when I was in college. So you might be slightly ahead of your peers even if you don't realize it. I probably would be perpetually job hunting for a job that's at least at a white school (much much more orderly)....
... But there's a million people that quit a job making more than they're worth that they're accustomed to for a new job that's actually worse. Sometimes you just gotta realize that work sucks and man up.
>>767365797
and now I just realized you said substitute teacher. Yeah bro, if you're making less than 20 an hour for that shit, I'd just quit. Substitutes are shown no respect at all, particularly from niggers. I also don't like the notion that you might be chilling and enjoying yourself, thinking you got the day off, then you get a call and it turns out you're on duty.
I'd rather put in a standard 40 with a regular employer.

Last Friday I was at a school where students weren't allowed out of the classroom without an escort. I told a black kid to put his phone away and he told me to fuck off. I told him not to talk to me like that and he told me to get the fuck out of here. Dumb niggers.
I went to a white school yesterday and had no problems except for the one black girl that was in the class. There aren't that many white schools so they are hard to come by. It really makes you think.
>I probably would be perpetually job hunting
I'm job hunting now. Just tired of dealing with niggers at this point.
>>767365314
If you make enough money to live comfortably then I see no problem
>>767365924
Thanks for a different perspective, anon
>>767366067
The problem is you picked to teach below the college level. A professors job is a lot easier/better than a teachers IMO
>>767366255
I don't even have a teaching degree.
>>767366370
Do you have any degree and in what? You could find a TA job at local university. I'm a biochemical research tech at private university, during the fall I help teach my PI's lab course to off set my costs (I'm paid by his grant money but the uni pays for me while I teach) teaching labs are fun and fairly straight forward
>>767365797
I work on a survey crew. I like my job and have a great bunch of co-workers. Most of the time we sit around and bullshit. When we do work, we do it with pride and perfection.
>>767365797
This. As a child/teen I never understood why adults seemed so tired, disappointed, unhappy, and drained of life. Granted I hated school too, but at least in your school years you can fantasize that your adulthood will be better.
Then you get to adulthood and you're just beaten down by doing the exact same shit every single day, dealing with bosses and coworkers you hate (but have to be civil to and preferably keep the banner happy/friendly even though you detest these people). It makes you very tired on a spiritual level. Particularly when you hit your high water mark as an adult and realize you basically have to settle for things never getting any better.
American public school is not about learning. Not at all. It's about training people to sit down and shut up for 8 hours, follow orders (no matter how ridiculous they frequently are), and endure a ton of tedium training....
And as far as job prepping goes, public school pretty much gives you the needed skills. Boredom tolerance and tedium training. I always wonder how those homeschool kids turn out (assuming they have a high intelligence mother/father teaching them). Sure, they will be brighter, but they will have NO boredom/tedium tolerance and honestly, that's the most needed job skill in the American workplace.
>>767366568
IT degree but I'm not sure what to do with it because I've been working shit jobs since graduation and I've basically forgotten all that I learned. Had one contract position which ended short for me because of conflicts with other coworkers. So I said fuck it and went to substitute teaching. Now I'm saying fuck it to that. I'm determined that I will find something that works for me but it's becoming slightly daunting at 25 years old.
>>767366568
That sounds pretty chill
>>767366637
We were trained for test taking and not retention

You nailed that shit on the head. Thought I was the only one
>>767366793
It's never too late anon, contrary to popular belief, life is not a race. I'm about to start a PhD in chem at 32
>>767366877
It is, I do biochemical research For like 6hrs a day and come home to work up data, plan, etc. I rarely I'm at my lab for 40hrs/week but clock 40
>>767367090
>It's never too late anon, contrary to popular belief, life is not a race. I'm about to start a PhD in chem at 32
This is really motivating to me actually and brings me great hope despite 32 not being old but having a few years on me. Some of the most motivating shit for me to hear is when people later in life than me make changes or dig deep and pull out their drive and heart.
>>767366944
Well, nope. I bet 95% of adults are in this boat. It gets particularly hard when you begin to approach middle age and realize, you gotta settle for this lot. It's not gonna get better.
Thing is Americans like to drown themselves in artificial positivity. And I'm the same way. Basically the "class clown" of my department. I like to make everyone laugh and keep things chill, BUT I absolutely detest some of those people. And it fucks me up a bit inside to have to force things to be friendly.
>>767367179
>I like to make everyone laugh and keep things chill, BUT I absolutely detest some of those people. And it fucks me up a bit inside to have to force things to be friendly.
I really don't want to end up this way. It seems like an extremely depressed way to live. Ideas on how to break out of it? I'd like to hear from someone about that at least.
>>767367318
This happens anywhere you work to maintain a professional environment. But people come and go
>>767367174
Im a firm believer that you can do anything you put your mind to. You just have to not become content with shitty situations
>>767367318
I don't know man. If I knew how to break out, I would do it. Maybe you invest and make money on the side until it's enough that you can just day trade. I used to make a lot of money with cryptos (while the value was moving up).
Adult life is harder than you expect. Most high schoolers expect adulthood to rock. And it does for a few years, when you're first enjoying your freedom, moving out, drinking and partying, banging women without parents fucking things up.
Then you begin to get locked into the same place for years and years and years and every day turns the same. What used to be partying with friends turns into drinking and smoking weed constantly at home so you can feel better after work. And years go by and it's all the same thing.
It sucks.
>>767367535
>You just have to not become content with shitty situations
Why do you think people become content with shitty situations? Is it depression or a lack of drive or care?
>>767367642
You forgot the part were over the year friends get married, produce spawn, move away. So you also become more isolated. Especially if you keep work and play separate
>>767367753
It's more comfortable and it's easier to stay in the boat than the risk, time and effort to find a new one. Also time, weeks, months just start slipping by
>>767367895
So it seems that it would make more sense to never be truly comfortable and always be willing to take the risk that others won't. You might reach places in life that you never knew were possible. If life is so fragile anyway, then I don't see the harm in taking calculated risks
>>767367535
>Im a firm believer that you can do anything you put your mind to. You just have to not become content with shitty situations
Then you're still young. Young people still believe big, it's the American way. They think some day they'll have the 250k job, big house, 2.5 kids, and an acre of woods. They'll be chief manager of a place where you're appreciated and genuinely love your job....
Then you get older, life dashes dreams again and again (though the truth of it is, most of us were never the equal of our dreams and thus not worthy of them). You grow cynical, and this causes a weird polarization where you act/talk even more positively to counter gloomy realities. Hence, me always being the one to keep the mood light and joking around with work (with people I mortally hate).
It sucks, but there's not enough success to go around. And that just is what it is.
Sorry had some shit go down on the job yesterday... So I'm particularly bitter about it right now.
>>767368046
Exactly, it's prob not the best idea to start a PhD at 32, I'll be done around 36-7, then have to post doc until I can find a professor position (guessing I'll about 40) and if I'm lucky I'll be tenured before 50. It's not ideal but doable. For me the risk is worth it, especially since I have a strong research background
>>767368046
You know how your 20s usually go? Taking a fuckton of risks. Usually *every* risk actually to peruse your goals. Then you really get a notion of which fights you can win and which ones you
can't.
This leads you to your world-weary 30s when you begin to see your trajectory and get disappointed. With Americans being taught to dream big and shoot for the stars, when those ideals finally die it's really hard for the ego.
>>767368160
What happened on the job?
>>767368160
Don't be sorry anon, you are just being real. I'm this anon>>767368250 tho
>>767368259
I'm a butcher. It was a fight between morning and evening shift about how little they're doing and how much work I'm doing. I got cussed at, managers got involved. No one is in trouble but my blood is still boiling.
>>767368254
What about putting the ego aside and continuing to take risks all the way to the grave so to speak? I don't think being in your 30's should be a barrier to not continuing to try to find a working routine that has a nice balance of income and happiness. For example, I prefer to work lots of hours and then having time off. Get it done kind of thing. This may not be always be viable, but I will continue to look for something that falls into that example and is physically doable.
>>767368338
When work ethic comes into discussion, I can't blame you for having boiling blood. Something that takes up as much of your time as a day job would probably affect how you feel when the talk of how much work is being done is brought up
>>767368250
The fact that you have a plan all the way up to age 50 is inspiring. I feel that most people do not plan their life out that far because they feel after their 40's it will start to be too late according to society or something
>>767368393
Because adulthood will humble you and not everything you've dreamed of doing was possible. You'll find this out when you actually try to pursue your big goals.
Sometimes, ordinary guys be ordinary, yo. You'll find you aren't worth any more than a standard middle class drone. You'll get to making a paycheck that's better than you get anywhere else and you get locked into one employer for the bulk of your life.
>>767368965
Have you ever heard of putting your mind into something? Adulthood might be humbling for some people because they realize that once you're an adult you have to actually put forth real mental effort to create change in life and can't rely on angsty teen energy levels.
>>767365314
If I move to Appalachia and sub will i get in trouble for dating one of my High School Students
>>767370627
She would probably have a tasty anus
>>767370919
Can i start courting them at 15 and six months then sodomize them for their 16th bday
of course grades would not entirely be based on sexual performance
>>767371184
Make sure to at least taste their poop first.

Isn’t that where Jessie slaughter is from?
