How the fuck are you supposed to fill 35 hours a week with job searching? What the hell kind of hax do you faggots use?!
>>683761294
I went outside. and fucked around in town.
>>683761441
For 35 hours?
>>683761552
Yeah, man.
>>683761687
Worth a try I guess, cheers. Still open to more ideas f anyone has any?
>>683761821
There really isn't much to it.
>Wake up at 10 because fuck actually doing 35 hours
>Do your actual job search
>Go into town
>See where the day takes you.
Most of the time I just sat around and played chess with strangers.
>>683762152
Don't they ask you for proof of jobs you applied for etc?
>>683762475
Yeah, that's what the actual job search is for.
And even then my case manager back then was chill as fuck.
>>683762475
Been signing on in the UK for like 2 years. No one has ever asked me for proof. MFW
>>683762641
So if you did the job search why bother going out into town at all?
>>683762721
Kill time, play chess, see what happens, keep some semblance of a sleep schedule
>>683762946
Fair enough. My advisor is a bitch, she'll demand proof of the whole 35 hours
>>683761294
I've been signing on for 5 years. I haven't applied for a single job bcuz I already have one. Yeah, they never ask for proof, at least in my part of the UK
>>683763009
Then you better get your fat ass into town.
>>683763096
East of England amiright homie
>>683762641
>>683763096
Are you guys on Universal Credit or JSA?
>>683763195
Nah, its a small town in NI
>>683763447
I'm not even in the UK.
>>683763476
Oh my mistake, east of England is a shithole. Wish I could leave man :(
>>683763796
How's the job/housing market in UK?
>>683761294
How much do you guys get for unemployement in the UK?
>>683764058
£317 a month
>>683761294
>Claim you have depression
>get put on esa
>never have to look for jobs
>get pip
>get £160 a week
>live life as a free man with free money.
>>683764058
I get 112 poundies a fortnight. I'm 20 and have no health problems.
>>683761821
Who is She?
>>683764058
For the lowest its like £50 a week, i'm on esa with pip and get £1000 a month.
>>683764229
But I plan to get a job later in the year, won't they keep me on that forever?
>>683764421
I have been on esa for like 6 years, you can get cured from depression so you can come off it.
>>683764188
That's only 450 or so USD. Not enough for rent in most places, and certainly not rent + utils + food
>>683764229
Roughly 920 USD is a little better, but still not enough to live on. Rents can't be that low in the UK, right?!?!
>>683764512
What so after a few months I just go to the Dr and say "lol I'm cheered up now" and they'll take me off it?
>>683761294
How the hell do benefit cheats get away with it for years??
>>683763973
Pretty bad.
>>683764719
Usually they live in shitty areas where everyone is on disability so the Job Centre just lets them rot.
>>683764634
You can get your rent paid for you, i get my £500 rent paid for me like i have for the past 4+ years.
>>683764646
Yeah play along they don't look into it too much tbh.
been on JSA (job seekers allowance) since 2008 in Ireland. 188 euros per week, rent paid for. Life is pretty sweet. Did a few Internships for about 2 years total (extra 50 on top of your JSA. I also buy and sell articles online so make money from that. Life is sweet. Fuck working 9-5.
>>683764976
>Working
kek
>>683765058
I do what I want, faggot
>>683764976
Own a decent motor do you?
Go on foreign holidays much?
Eat out at decent restaurants much?
Weekends away on the piss with your mates?
Decent clothes on your back?
Self respect?
Respect of others?
Nice home?
Pension fund?
You live like a leech and will die in a shitty council flat having seen and done nothing in your last worthless life.
I'd rather work two jobs than live like dole scrum.
>life is sweet
What a fucking sad tool.
>>683764229
Fuck off does anyone ever get PIP for depression. There that got denied it even though they were missing legs.
>>683765765
everyone knows depression is an excuse anon
>>683765447
Esa guy here, i own my own motorbike, flat, don't go on holiday because i don't like flying much, i eat out, go out to the pub to get drink, have good clothes on my back with self respect, only respect whites "no one else deserves it", life is sweet if you make the most of what you have and if people give you money for free then make the most of it.
>>683765447
Lol go fuck yourself, you fucking idiot. I'm on the btw enterprise scheme. starting my own business buying and selling articles. Few years I'm gonna have enough to buy my own home. Don't fucking judge what you know nothing about you fucking imbecile.
>>683761821
I need a sauce!!!
>>683763476
Can you spell Terrorist?
>>683765765
I get a £260 bump at the end of each month from pip like i have for the past two years, right but mental health can impact everyday things missing two legs isn't stopping you from talking to people or going out much.
>>683765239
Yes living in poverty while suckling at the teat of the government sounds very exhilarating
>>683766045
>missing two legs isnt stopping you from going on
Oh thats right, fuck the amputee, your depression is much worse
>>683766045
I worked on the PIP helpline, the fact that you get PIP just goes to show how fucked up the system. Was it Atos or Capita that did your assessment? Also was it a home assessment?
>>683766207
>>683766207
To them it must be to get money, also thats what wheelchairs got made for.
Any and everyone on the dole should be shot. Useless freeloading moochers
>>683766414
Right because that totally isnt a hinderance.
>>683766468
thanks for footing the bill, faggot. now get back to work you fucking robot.
>>683766347
At the time i did have severe depression and i had agoraphobia like i still do now, no friends, little reason to live ect ect and i cant remember it was sometime ago.
>>683766468
Are you jelly that people on the dole are more free then you, they get paid to do what ever they want everyday of the week.
>>683766611
How do people like yourself live? the shame would kill me
>>683766495
Well to pip i guess not, to me i would tell them to fuck off and stop making people feel sorry for them.
>>683766626
I can't wait for your reassessment to come up. If you manage to stay on PIP then you're the luckiest muthafucker to be alive.
>>683766699
Working like an indian for chinese pay is a shame to me, you're a slave to your very own survival, you work to survive but in surviving you're wasting your life away in a shitty 9-5 job, hardly a way to live imo.
>>683766097
poverty? lol i live in a nice semi detatched mate. I have steak for dinner most days. thanks for paying. NOW GET BACK TO WORK. IM NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO BOWLING IF YOU KEEP SLACKING. FUCKING MONKEY
>>683766859
How normal do they do them ?
>>683766859
As someone how worked at pip what did you normally use to give pip out for ?
>>683766898
>9-5
Just paid off my 17th mortgage. I don't think 9-5 applies to me. I make more in a day than you will in a year.
>>683767096
This and tell us how to fake it.
>>683767102
TODAY ON FAGGOTS THAT LIE
>>683767102
>Just paid off my 17th mortgage
That's really cool bro. Btw my dad works for Nintendo.
>>683766910
Ahh delusions. Bend over for your government buddy, beg for the scraps like a dog.
>>683767102
>I make more in a day than you will in a year.
That's why you have had 17 mortgages, if you made cash like crazy then you would never have had to take a single one out, also i have never had a loan or have ever had to pay anything off monthly either.
>>683766747
But people having depression should totally be coddled
>>683761294
Just fucking lie you idiot
>>683767383
I never was nor still am..i had to deal with it by my self i never went out like begging for help.
>>683766961
I am gonna have a stab at what you tried to say there.
The Reassessments are exactly the same as when first applying, you fill in the PIP2 form then have to go for another assessment at one of the centres unless you get a home visit. Normally it's done about a year before your claim is up.
>>683767096
>>683767171
I never gave PIP to anyone, I just worked on the helpline answering questions. It's a Disability benefit so you need to have a disability to apply, they have a list of questions that get asked and a point scoring system that goes with it. Faking it is hard due to the fact they do face to face assessments and even if you have a legit disability it's still 50/50 to whether you'll actually get it due to how the assessment providers don't give a fuck about there jobs and normally score people really low for no reason. Only way to get it 100% is to have a terminal illness and that requires a DS1500 from the doctor.
>>683767431
I know that you tard but they always want proof.
>>683767546
whats your disability?
When I was signing on, I faked 95% of my applications because their targets were impossible even back then.
Not sure what the penalties would be for getting caught, just don't be a faggot about it and no one will give a shit.
>>683767614
I don't have one, well not serious enough to get PIP. Bit of depression and anxiety maybe I'm a sperg as well but no diagnosis. Like I keep saying I worked on the phone lines answering questions to the customers that rang up.
Mate i had to do this for a bit before i found a job. I had to see the lady once a week. All i did was the day before apply for like 4 jobs and write some notes saying what i did then say i got a call back from like 2 and i am waiting to see what will happe. It was easy as fuck mate. Got a job tho so they are good
>>683767849
god damn, I couldn't think of anything more soul destroying than that.

>>683763009
>>683763150
wtf is this 35hours searching for a job? how you prove you've been searching? wtf? don't you just apply online nowadays lól
>>683767304
LOL. youre the one paying for it, faggot. Now who's bending over?
Back to work. Get that memo typed. You've got my car insurance to pay.
lol at all these faggots on NEET bux thinking they've got it sweet. I'm 22 and make £2k a month working flexible hours, free hotels, free meals + profit from travel expenses (occasionally extra £200 a month). Plus a load in the stockmarket getting me money for nothing.
>>683767998
It's an emotional rollercoaster, one second you'll be on the phone to a really nice customer being glad you can help them, the next you're being shouted at because someone got denied. The worst calls were the ones where people would threaten to commit suicide. Shit was stressful and make my depression and anxiety a hell of a lot worse. Funny thing is me being ill was the reason I got fired.
Just woke up from a glorious lay in, about to rustle up some steak and watch Game of Thrones on my 42 inch HDTV that you paid for.
Thanks for the cheese worker drones. Now get back to work. I need you to earn more so I can uy a car next week =)
>>683768142
Dont forget about your weekly begging meeting. Good doggie now go away boy. Oh we are going to cut back on your check, but doggie doesnt mind, doggie is good right boy? Good now beg!
>>683768426
Now make sure you keep the treat on your nose until the goverment says you can have it, ohh dance as well and shake, good boy!
>>683768426
you must have very low expectations from life if you're happy with the sort of money you get on benefits
>>683768507
Lol I sign on once per month and the money you earn for me goes straight into my bank account. Get back to work, monkey nuts
>>683768769
Oh doggie is happy! Good boy! Dont bite now, or doggie goes into the streets.
>>683768634
Literally just said I've started my own business up there you fucking moron. So what if the government are helping me. And no, /i'm not ashamed. Now fuck off you compassion-less, un-empathetic cunt.
Nice thread.
Can you recommend me a good job agencies in UK?
Right now, I'm looking for a job as a physiotherapy assistant but with no avail.
Here's some tits for motivation.

Delusional doggie!
>>683769347
I am in no way salty that some potato head is getting money from the government. I find it funny that he actually thinks he lives well.

>>683766207
>be depressed amputee
Rake in dat doll money
In Thailand they have a city that's infested with monkeys. They commit a shit tonne of crime, assaulting people, stealing and generally being shits. They worked out that the monkeys are content with very little and that it's actually less costly to just give them a couple of bananas everyday rather than deal with their shit when they get hungry.
Very similar to our benefits system.
>>683769420
get back to work, faggot. Boss needs dem memos, drone
>>683769650
Exactly. Now get back to work before I smash your fucking car up, you useless drone-monkey

Jelly that i can spend time on /b/ and pull double the money you have to beg for?

Oh really? I came into work 30 mins late, have only three things to do today, and will prob take an hour lunch and leave early. Jelly?

I work from home 2 days a week and the other 3 I spent in 4* hotels. All my meals are paid for. I work flexible hours and largely independently with 7 weeks holiday + bank holidays a year.
£2k a month + expenses
if you miss your weekly NEETbux meeting you don't get your £70 scraps for the week and have to sit in your shitty council house eating ALDIs rip-off cheerios for dinner
>>683765447
lol what a fucking hater sad clown you are. I'm jealous of the dude and you're jealous because you think having material bullshit is all that matters in life. Fuck you.
>kudos to my dude living that sweet life, good shit m8
>>683770002
It's likely he does though, most people on the unemployment in my country get 250-400 a week depending on circumstance. My flatmate gets 320 a week and can pay her rent and food costs, though she's lying to said agency about how high her living costs are, they're actually a lot lower. Guess it just depends on how well you can fuck the system.
>>683770126
Dont be jealous of a parasite.
>>683770063
of course you do mate. keep telling yourself that you basement dwelling neckbeard
>>683770202
Yes but what happens once the jig is up?
>>683770278
Agree, I will never be jealous of haters like you. You would do the same thing (if you could)
>>683770343
Nothing, they don't actually do any digging to check if the numbers are made up, she's been doing it for the last 20 years of her life.
>>683770126
You will always be miserable that you're not a real man.
You will also never have something which you crave. Stability. One day it will run dry and you will not only be penniless but so far behind the curve that you will spend your second half of existence as a min wage slave.
>>683770278
They may be parasites but it's a symbiotic relationship. We don't physically have enough decent jobs for the population, so we actually need people that are willing to take the hit and live on a third-worlders salary to make room for those who are actually capable of making money in the economy.
>>683761294
It all depends on who you see in the Job Centre
My guy was safe as fuck, he checked my booklet like twice in the 3 months I was out of work
I use an addon called Universal Automation.
The whole 35 hour jobsearch a week depends entirely on the jobcenter you sign on at and the person youre signing on with, not being a complete entitled cunt or a chav also helps to ease the process.
I check the directgov website 3 times a week and usually apply for 2 - 4 jobs each time, sometimes i just find a job that requires you to email to apply and say ive applied for it when i really havent.
I run the addon most days since it can be run entirely in the background whilst you do other shit. You dont even have to say that youve applied for the jobs that it applys for since jobs that you apply for through directgov are automatically logged. I do still keep my activity history updated though since it does help in speeding the signing on process up.
>>683770292
that's a pretty average job. the fact that you're in disbelief shows me what your current financial situation is. sorry mate
>>683770420
Not at all. I would never sink to the level of government leech.
>>683770459
Wow i didnt know there were no jobs.
>>683770437
She better hope she doesnt lose those benefits, itd be devastating to her. 20 years of being a leech?
In America we don't even have a stupid government agency for you faggots who want to pretend to work. If you don't have a job, you just starve. It's great.
>>683770441
Nah bro, I work 60 hours a week and live in the us. All I do is work and stress and I fucking hate it. I have a shitton of cash but don't give a fuck to spend it. Fuck this life. Wish I was poor and lived in a cabin away from this contrived rat race. An iPhone is not a reason to call yourself successful.. but you watch tv and think that's how life is supposed to be. You fool.
>>683770620
supply and demand, the less the supply of useful people (the more people on NEET bux) the higher the market value for those of us that are actually capable of being self-sustaining. That's providing we can placate them on £70 a week, which I find fucking amazing.
>>683770750
Why dont you save up your money to buy a cabin and live your life doing nothing? Thats my plan
>>683770750
Don't watch TV. It's boring.
I can barely stand video games these days.
Get some hobbies you fucking loser.
It's easy and gets you pussy. How? You have shit to talk about and to introduce into some boring bitches life.
>>683770202
exactly, if you're smart about it, you can live a middle class life without having to work a day in your life. And we're smart because we use our free time to pursue our personal interests. For example, I just finished a financial trading course, I watched countless documentaries educating myself on whatever I want. I've nearly finished building a mini bar for my house because I had all that free time. People think I'm lazy because I dont work. And that literally couldnt be further from the truth. And one day, when they're 50 and they finally realise all that fucking time they wasted working for someone else, they will realise how stupid chastising people on benefits really is.
>>683770911
They shouldnt get money, just food and housing
>>683770930
>i built a mini bar
>im living life guise
>>683761294
Just get a fucking job, you lazy, pikey cunt.
>>683771015
I would agree in theory, but I'm sure they've calculated this as a 'sweet spot' where you placate the most amount of crime etc. for the least amount of money
>>683770930
>people
Thanks for making the rest of us pay you fucking parasite.
>>683771175
That seems so silly though. Its like negotiating with terrorists. Oh we better give em money otherwise they might tear up the town.

>>683770930
At least you're studying, doing stuff with your time is excellent. It seems most people don't realize that most people can be content with a simple lifestyle, in the end it doesn't matter if someone's upsetti that you're on a benefit, what the fuck are they gonna do about it? frown angrily?

Why say that like your winning? You are literally one tier up from a sandnigger on the dole. I'd rather my tax go to a fellow britbong than some lazy foreigner but seriously how do you cope being a sack of shit that should be hanged publicly?
Look, at all those successful people suddenly here. Trying to justify their entire being and existence. Especially trying to step over them to compensate their miserable life.
I do admit that I think that most of those welfare-nuts are doing it currently right. It all depends on personal preferences and needs. Here in germany for example you get an appartment paid, money for food and even heavily discounts for freetime activities.
It's not uncommon that many "jobless parasites" are living a better life than the 40-50 9-to-5 wagecuck. But it's nice to see how both parties are trying here to spit on eachother. Just do whatever you want.

It's preferable to being a 'wage-cuck' but imost people are on white-collar salaries where the positives massively outweigh the negatives of working.
Basically if you're comparing yourself to the average 16 year old working in mcdonalds, yes, being on NEET bux is winning
Just saying i deal and also get jobseekers because it's all off the books.
You're paying for a grow room and a few beers.
People like you are a cancer of the system.
When I was seriously ill, I had all my expenses paid for ~200 a week.
You know what I did? I did my best to get better and live a normal life.

Yeah, I'm a slave. You got me.
Anything exciting happening on Jeremy Kyle, today?
Had no idea the UK had so many niggers on welfare. It's shocking how many actually think their table scraps from the government are a good sum of money.

I bet he wanted to state that even a regular job is nowadays not thta much sufficient. I know that in germany for example your 'average' job is not earning you much more than being on NEET bux hence the comparison. But it might be very different for germany. You really get here a lot of money for doing nothing. I don't know how its working in UK or USA.
Here you get about 400 Euro (550$) + everything (!) paid. It's way more than most EU workers like in Poland, Greece or somewhere else nerby is doing in an entire month

I was on it for a few months after uni. They never asked me to prove it once. I had to pretty much shove my job search results in the guys face. It annoyed me tbh.
>>683772481
TENDIES NAOWWW
>>683772563
Yeah, good one. You showed me.
>>683767370
ah, someone who does not understand the buy to let market, or the cost of money. When you can borrow money cheaply to buy something you can rent out and pay the interest on, it makes no sense to put up your own capital - tying up that money in one house with low income instead of using it to pay small deposits on several flats or houses, and using rent to buy them for you.
>>683772563
Eat the cereal
I honestly don't understand how people don't go mad being pro doleys. You don't get enough cash to actually experience life properly. I was bored shitless.
>>683772563
sadly, cereal is all you have to eat (Aldis, value range)
when you get your good boy points from the pleb centre you can buy some tendies
>>683772835
My brother was going to try something similar to this, he didn't really think it through though as we've got a serious housing problem here.
>>683773134
If you're a cheeki breeki you can cheat the system and have as much money as someone with a job and less of the hassle. It's unfair as hell to the working man, yes, but in the end everyone is out for themselves.
>>683767370

>>683773297
Don't tell me what to do, IT'S MY BAIT AND I WANT IT
>>683773259
You only manage to get more money than the average low paid worker though. Plus, I actually enjoyed working.
>currently unemployed waiting to go on a round the world trip for 2 years at the end of the month
>you couldn't do that on the dole
>>683761294
By looking for work I actually want to do.
And when I apply for really good jobs, that I want. I spend a day adjusting my CV and covering letter to suit it, and make sure my grammar, spelling and information is all up to date and correct.
Tell the job centre that that is what you were doing. Then they're happy.
And just have a generic CV and covering letter ready for small jobs which you can apply for now and then.
Just keep an eye out for what you want.
Applying for 3-4 shit jobs a week is fine.
And if you go and CV drop. Just pick 3 places to go that week and fine tune your CV and covering letter for each shop.
Just take your time with things.
>>683773608
I'm doing the same thing mate, saved up £15k last year and taking this year off traveling round the world. But hey, us wage-cuck slaves right
>>683773868
>15k
>travelling the world
Oh you
>>683773868
travel the world on 15k? you sure you can do that
>>683773608
430 bucks is low?
>>683761294
It's pretty stupid that they expect you to do full time for such a feeble amount of money
But you can just lie on your job search stuff. Say you spent 5 hours using some jobsite. They accept it.
>>683774082
You clearly have never had money. Or passion, or any form of spark that would drive you to find out about other places, and their cost of living.
Yes, you can easily travel the world for months and months for £15k.
You enjoy your week in Benidorm, ok?
>>683761552
Want to look at text on a screen for 35 hours?
>>683773998
This guy.
You can easily backpack on £15k
>>683774378
I'm not the asshole who's on the dole. You need to reconsider your statement.
>>683767546
How often do they do reassessments
>>683774378
Don't worry about these NEET trolls mate.
They'll never see the things you will.
>>683774660
Around the world? Or europe?
>>683774810
I wasn;t trolling, I was genuinely curious. Also if you scroll up and read one of my earlier comments, you'd see I employ people like him to make me money. £15k is nothing especially traveling the world as he claims lol. I plan to do the same and already have £75k (half my budget) ready for it.
>>683774660
>>683775030
>>683774660
>>683774660
Absolutely. I mean I'm currently not even doing what you would class as backpacking.
studio apartment with balcony and aircon w/ shared pool £180/month
bills £40/month
motorbike £35/month
eating out £150/month
that's like £405 fixed costs and i'm currently working with about £1600 a month. So about £40 a day for activities. Bearing in mind a beer here in a bar is like £1-£1.50 and a hooker for an hour is £20 or a night for £30
>>683774130
430 gbp?
It's alright.
I earned almost £600 last week.
I earned more at my last job before I took voluntary redundancy.
Redundancy was just over 11k.
I'll take 2 years out retrain into software engineering and make waaaaaaaay more than that.
I don't blame people for doling it up lon term. If you can deal with the crushing existential emptiness good for you. I can't do that. I have to be doing something productive.
I just apply for 4-5 a week, through job apps, so about 10 or so are written down when I sign on every fortnight. Delete any emails offering interviews. My advisor is always like "wow, you're really trying"
>mfw
Welp. After school (before entering University) I travelled a lot as well. Wagecucks still trying to justify "You won't experience what I experience".
Done that already. Now I'm earning a fair share of NEET bux with my EE masters and still travelling.
>>683775106
this mainly applies to Asia by the way, but many places in South America etc are similarly cheap
>>683775106
Where you going first man?
>>683774671
You're employment status doesn't hands anything to do with it. You need to rethink your mindset.
How about you unemployed waste of spaces actually do job searching. If you properly research and write a specific covering letter for a job it should take you at least 3 hours per job.
>>683775030
It is possible though. Just because you've got 75k it doesn't mean he can't do it on 15k. You live to your means.
>>683775356
In Thailand at the minute and it's the first stop, only because I've been here quite a few times before. The backpacker image kind of ruins it though but it's still fantastic
>>683775523
you were the one throwing accusations based of a genuine question. I wasn't trying to offend anyone. If you're mad over the fact I make more than you ever will then fine by me.
>>683775257
What defines productivity to you? keeping yourself distracted or collecting money? Or is it the hope that you'll eventually do something kickass and make something with your work? Not being a dickhead just wondering, as I have yet to find a job that makes me feel like I'm accomplishing anything. (Fucking barista, literally no other jobs around even though I have IT certifications and engineering skill, this country is suffering from such a lack of employment I'm considering moving elsewhere)
>>683775758
>>683775612
Right. If you want an apartment here at £2k a month you can find one, but I'm happy with one at £180. Bear in mind most Thais have rooms at about £60 a month
>>683775561
I can do a weeks worth of job searching in about 3 hours, and that includes modifying any cover letters/filling out application forms.
35 hours is ridiculous
>>683761294
What the fuck is OP talking about? Muricafag here
I've been on both sides of the fence here. Working now, hate the fucking place.
If you leave school and become benefits master what happens regarding old age/pension?
Are you going to have government subsidised rent all your life?
What happens if everyone in the UK takes your approach, then there's no-one to pay the benefits to you?
>>683775793
>(Fucking barista, literally no other jobs around even though I have IT certifications and engineering skill, this country is suffering from such a lack of employment I'm considering moving elsewhere)
Where are you from?
If you know your stuff, especially in IT, remote work is still a possibility which is well paid.
>>683774378
15k pounds is about $21k USD.
>Travel the world
>Backpack
Choose one. Unless you consider "the world" to be Europe and nothing else, then airfare alone will eat up most of that money to travel the WORLD.
>>683775915
basically scum on the dole. you guys call it welfare. Same concept.
>>683775978
You don't know what you're talking about
>>683776220
>valid statement to someone who never travelled outside their country
>"You don't know what you're talking about"
>no arguments
>>683775978
You can fly from the UK to Bangkok for £200. Hardly a huge sum of money. You can get from Bangkok to Cambodia via train for £1 etc etc. You realise outside of 1st world countries everything is pretty fucking cheap? Flights aren't expensive either
>>683775793
I like the social interaction of work.
I wasn't super keen on the the details of my job but I have a pretty strong work ethic. The people I worked for and with were pretty good people. I worked as a quality controller in a brewery.
>>683775934
Jew Zealand. I'm employed but hate dealing with people which makes my job a fucking nightmare. All of our IT work is already outsourced from elsewhere and I've had fuck all luck in the field because we have an incredible amount of people who jumped aboard the IT train already, nearly every person who attends some form of university or course is doing it for a business or IT degree.
>>683776323
>someone who never travelled outside their country
I've been to North America, South America, quite a few places in Europe and I'm currently in Asia, but yeah ok
>>683776499

>>683776018
OHHHH life on the dole. I've watched videos about that shit.
I've been on and off it for years.
I honestly don't know how anyone can be PROUD to be on it... I suffer from anxiety and depression and I'm still looking for jobs and wanting to be a productive, normal member of society.
If you collect JSA or UC you're seen as scum.
I feel like scum.
>>683776479
Ah, yeah I fucking hate social interaction. It's something I can deal with but I'd really rather not.
>>683776672
Oh christ, thanks man I'll have a look
>>683776220
>>683776427
Nice, one example to one destination. What happens when you want to travel... you know... the rest of the world? Like you planned? The airfare traveling around the USA alone once you hit that part of the world will suck up half your 15k just moving around the states and seeing different places.
Then there is Russia, Japan, Australia, Iceland, Greenland, China, Africa, and more and more and more and more and moooooooooooooooore.
But please tell me how your 15k will take you around the fucking world, kek
I have't been on the dole since I went self employed, I actually stopped early because the they were getting stupid with how much shit they wanted written down, proof of applying etc (I was just sending pointless applications to fill the quota).
What's it like now?
>>683775758
>> If you're mad over the fact I make more than you ever will then fine by me.
*sigh* Why is it always a "my dick is bigger than yours" thing with you kids?
ESA master race
I realise the irony
>>683777021
You think to classify as being 'round the world' you have to literally visit every country? No, it pretty much just means circumnavigating the world. I flew from the UK to LA for £330 and the UK to Bangkok for £200. It's hardly a stretch to say that airfares all in might eat up, say, 15% of the budget at the most?
>>683777173
>*sigh*
>with you kids
you are the biggest edgelord betafaggot I have seen in a while
>>683777018
Yeah, that's a bit of a problem. I tend to get on with most people.
Try to find common ground with people. As soon as you find something you both like you're golden.
>>683777437
Then you need to get out more, mate. There's fucking thousands more.
How old are you? What do you do?
>>683777317
>You think to classify as being 'round the world' you have to literally visit every country?
Um, yeah, basically. They don't call it a "world tour" for just hitting a couple small places close to home. You're not exactly "seeing the world" by traveling to one location such as LA in the mass of land that is the USA, nor are you "seeing the world" by traveling to Bangkok, only one city in Thailand.
You're saying you want to travel the world but you're describing a couple short small trips to distinct locations.
>>683777317
In fact, I'm not even gonna say it's hardly a stretch, because that's literally all it is, under 15% of the budget. Maybe if you actually did it instead of just chatting shit about it you'd realise it's possible. It'd probably help if you understood the value of money too. You might when you move out of your parents house
>>683777699
Are you doing it in a huge balloon in 80 days?
>>683775865
No wonder you are unemployed.
>>683777699
No, you travel by land where you can and fly where you can't, I'm just giving you examples of the fact that it's not the 1960s anymore and you can fly for a relatively small sum of money because you're obsessed with how just the cost of flights alone will eat into any budget. What would be the point of flying everywhere you mong? Wouldn't you not get to see anything?
>>683777441
I can be social if I need to be, fairly decent at it, it's just something out of my comfort zone. The irony is that nearly all of my job experience has had something to do with customer interaction or service, i.e. cashier, barista, door guard for an unemployment office (Funnily enough). None of them have been utterly fantastic but in this economy any job is better than none.
>>683777982
(I mean the last part in a sense of "Getting a job is rare as hell here and not something most people pass up if they're driven")
>>683777948
I'm actually not right now
>>683761294
lol, do they make you do it in the job office?!
Just don't do shit, then like 2 or 3 days before spend like 2 hours applying for all the relevant jobs online, chose maybe 15 or so, and make 2 or 3 phone calls. You're fucking done for the next 2 weeks.
Seriously, they don't give a fuck if you're doing a true 35 hours search. They just want you to apply for jobs. So apply for them.
>>683777964
>Travel by land
Good luck with that depending on what part of the world you're in. You'll either spend literally years walking the entirety of the USA alone, or spend an absolute fortune on a car rental, gas, food, lodging, etc along the way. And that is only one country. What about Canada? Same deal. What about Australia? Russia? Africa? How about all those locations and countries that aren't as civilized and don't offer much transportation?
I'll hand it to you that the Euro and Asian countries have easily used train systems and aren't hard to get around. But what about the rest of the world. For you know, traveling the WORLD?

I'm sorry mate but you're just emotionally too invested with this 'transport is impossibly expenive and difficult' sentiment, it's actually really fucking easy and inexpensive. Not the mention you're way off the mark on what a round the world trip is. You're not obligated to see every single country/american state for you to go 'round the world'
