If mods think this is too similar to the employment thread >>>/ot/1962884 they can delete it. I thought it would be nice to have a thread for discussing wagie jobs (retail, food, service sector stuff for a low wage) specifically.

It’s always the boomers as well. Can’t you just take 1 second to fucking prepare yourself? I had one woman go back to her car TWICE when there was a queue. First time she forgot her card, and then she came back with an expired card and had to go back again? Or you’ll scan all of their stuff and then suddenly they go “OH I forgot to get this thing which is 3 isles away!” And sometimes they’ll do this multiple fucking times. We should be allowed to cancel the transaction and make them get to the back of the queue but of course managers can’t be bothered to deal with boomer tard meltdowns every single day.

Thanks nonna, unfortunately I totally fumbled that interview. I knew from the moment they told me they'd get in contact I didn't get the job. I have another interview tomorrow for an ice cream shop, hopefully I'll do a little better. Truth be told I just hate dealing with people, but the jobs that don't have that ask for degrees or experience I don't have yet.

I'm in a small town and the cities closer always reject me because of the distance and the ones that don't reject me want me for the entire day which I wouldn't mind since the experience would look great on my resume and the salary is a bit better but would cost me up to 4 hours inside different buses + train, I'd go crazy in an instant with that workload and the public transport combo. I'm planning on saving so I can get my drivers license and then get a new job in the capital. There are so many better jobs there I am certain I'd do great but I simply cannot waste a total of 4 hours everyday in a bus, I'd live only for the job.

Why would you use this as an example when this happens all the time in academia. Working in research, especially government funded research, has never been a lucrative career no matter if you're in Canada, Europe, or America.

Academia not being a lucrative career doesn't make it a bullshit job or worthless toilet paper degree and the fact money is being rerouted from actual research positions to bullshit admin positions is part of the problem with our job market and economy. Many private sector job positions are also squeezed, me and other anons gave other examples as well. I gave the example because you said my post sounded fake and like a story I found on reddit so I expanded on it. If you think biomedical degrees are bullshit toilet paper degrees no one should get then we'll just have to agree to disagree, though I am curious what you think are non-bullshit degrees?

I don't get what you mean by this. If you're the first AYRT then I don't know how you managed to misinterpret a point about UAE slavery so bad to twist it into 'discounting the everyday lived experience of Canadians,' two countries can both be bad at once and pointing out a slavery problem overseas isn't discounting anyone's experiences in Canada.

If you're the second AYRT you haven't actually given any examples of non-toilet-paper degrees so I guess it will remain a mystery which jobs exactly you think Canadians should be getting in order to escape the squeeze of our real-estate-based economy, other than real estate agent. We can't all be real estate agents.

maybe i shouldve specified this but i cant anymore since the exams i was supposed to take to leave were cancelled due to the recent shelling by india and most unis wont pick me because id be deported anywaysand airspace is closed down where im at (so we cant even book a flight)…my post is more of a last cry in reality. we couldve gotten out we still can hopefully but just from yesterdays things are getting worse so i dont imagine we have the luxury of time anymore and my city is closer to india im just hoping my retarded parents realize the shit theyre in and get out if not atleast i vented this here. being in a war zone kind of gives you courage to say anything since hell youre dying either way,i have to simultaneously prep myself that i might die tomorrow by a nuke or a drone strike (it hasnt stopped india shelling major cities) and i have to live with the fact that couldnt live or experience what i wanted that maybe my life is going to end soon that sometimes theres always one type of people who'll always suffer even when youve tried to make things better i just have to live with the fact that my life is going to end before i actually stepped into full adulthood. thanks for wishing me good luck though! i hope you get the best luck aswell!

I hate to say this but I feel like my only option is killing myself. I just have so many problems that will never get solved and ruined my life. I know half of my problems wouldnt exist if I never born to this place. Moving to west isnt an option because I dont want to face with more bullying. But I just dont know anymore. Im completely lost. I gave up from life compeletly, I gave up from school, I gave up from myself. Everytime I share my pain people tell me to kill myself or get rude or talk like they dont even listen to me. I imagine being a man in the west, it feels surreal. My only consolation is hugging to my pillow and pretend to be loved by someone, it helps to calm me down a bit. I feel like seeking and help is pointless. I have a hate/love relationship with my mother and its exhausting, I hate that Im only alive because I feel obligated to live for her, I hate this reality. Everything is so exhausting, I dont know what to do anymore, I feel like at this point no matter what I do I will just sink into the mud more. And thats scary to think about. I wouldve killed myself already like I said if it wasnt because of my mother but I just feel like a slave. I will never self actualize because of this place, because of my ethnicity, because of my dysphoria. I hate that I have no body I can talk to and relate to. I hate people in here and I hate people in west for having easy lives too. I just want to be human

Nona, I'm so sorry that you feel this way. From what I'm reading here it sounds like you don't want to die - you want your current situation to not exist anymore and that's so understandable. I live in the US and there are so many ex-muslims here, (according to a quick search, about a QUARTER of adults who were raised muslim here no longer identify with it). I'm sure you'd find a community and many people who understand. As long as you're not in the deep south or something, nobody really cares what religion or background you were raised with.

That's really sweet of you, but I wouldn't feel too bad for her. She lives in a literal manor, her family is super rich, she most likely makes more money than you from just youtube alone, and she owns a cottage that she rents out. If she really wanted to, she could change the way she lives her life. She just prefers to stay within her comfort zone and her parents don't seem to really care. That being said, some of her haters on Tattle are kind of unhinged.

These guys are so big. You never realize just how big a wolfhound is until you mistaken it for a horse, y'know? Someone's got loose and followed me home. Could have easily shown aggression, but was just tagging along for the walk. My dog's like 12lbs soaking wet.
Hope he made it home; my aunt dragged me inside out of fear instead of letting me check to see if he auto-pilots back home if put on a leash. Her screaming was unsettling the dog so I couldn't help him out.

Getting my lab puppy soon! Going to find out what my area risk is for parvo. I live in an apartment and there is high dog traffic around me. I was thinking of bringing her to a schoolyard where some people play fetch with their dogs for her potty training and exercise… less foot traffic compared to a sidewalk.

Any tips for socialization before fully vaccinated and potty training in an apartment? I have no friends in this city which means I have no dog moms to do play dates with. I might ask my vet to hook me up with someone whose dog is near my dogs age?

Socialization ideas I have so far:
>carry lab puppy in a backpack or tote bag and walk around so she can adjust to sights and smells without the risk of coming across parvo
>puppy socialization classes with other new puppy owners whose pups are vaccinated
>hopefully run into another lab puppy owner so our labs can be besties
>taking puppy to Home Depot and pushing her in cart to adjust to very different environment
>taking puppy to patio dog friendly restaurants. Have puppy blanky down so she doesn’t touch the floor (who knows, some dog with parvo might’ve laid there)
>playing with puppy in schoolyard to drain her energy and wiping paws when she gets home
>carrying puppy in tote bag or backpack while we do 1-2h hikes
>driving puppy around and observing people from car

Jeff goldblum's rebrand as a "zaddy" by the general public. He's a cheater, predator, creep and a pedophile who deserves to be exposed. Even if a man is considered attractive it's not an excuse.

A bunch of 80s-90s famous men are predators of women and girls who use their nostalgia value and seniority to predate within and outside of Hollywood. I've read and heard things about them that are vomit inducing that makes me wonder how they maintain any sort of popularity while hiding that evil, disgusting side of themselves. Goldblum is less walled than other men his age and that's why it goes ignored, but it actually deepens my disgust.

He already has a much younger wife, a child, feigns his fake happy marriage and yet he still predates upon younger women on the sly. And people enable him and nobody ever fully comes out to say anything. It's all just whispers. like the Jared Leto situation.

Seeing men like him and that objectively much uglier Walton Goggins faggot (who allegedly drove his first wife to kill herself with his cheating) be praised by women is sickening. When you try and bring up their BS you're either buried or demeaned for it.

I agree with that, but a) most people who consume and react to celebrity gossip are women, and b) people love to hate on those with status who seem entitled about their position. It's not always as simple as woman bad, and both Doja Cat and Chappell are people who became celebrities without wanting to play the game of PR, so it's no wonder they became disliked by a lot of people so quickly.
