You Know What, I'm Done With This Shit. Time to Get a Job

I don't know how to go forward in this world.

I can't get a job in my profession.

I guess I just go on welfare?

Yep, been unemployed for several months now. Multi interviews, and all ghosted. Im fucked at my age and nobody wants a professional career candidate, afraid I guess ill tell the young folks you dont know shit...

Fuck it, trying to start an online business...

I'm not young either, I'm almost 50 but too young to retire.

I seriously don't know what the fuck to do.

I seriously don't know what to do.

Suck the system DRY!! My motto, use your talents to build something while you suck the govt tit. You paid into, get it back!!!

OP no shame seriously. I didnt want to do it but fuck the system. The system is fucking all of us... you earned it... look for work in the mean time, but build your own shit. Start a consult company or whatever it is that you do well. Suck the system to pay your bills and eat.

My identity, and I suspect a lot of people's identities, are built on being "productive citizens".

This has been a really hard transition.

I spent decades being a good worker.

Now...I just walk away?

I guess I just walk away.

The greatest advice of all time...

Sing me a song, you're a singer
Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
The devil is never a maker
The less that you give, you're a taker
So it's on and on and on, it's heaven and hell
Oh well
The lover of life's not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
The sooner you'll know that you're dreaming
So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell
I can tell
Fool, fool
Oh uh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well if it seems to be real, it's illusion
For every moment of truth, there's confusion in life
Love can be seen as the answer, but nobody bleeds for the dancer
And it's on and on, on and on and on and on and on and on and on
They say that life's a carousel
Spinning fast, you've got to ride it well
The world is full of kings and queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
It's heaven and hell, oh well
And they'll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
You get to keep the gold that falls
It's heaven and hell, oh no
Fool, fool
You've got to bleed for the dancer
Fool, fool
Look for the answer
Fool, fool, fool

Yes, that's actually good advice - or try consulting.

Also, you could say you're "White Hispanic", that helps too

I have been... lol 2 or more races, hispanic mexican... BWAHAHAHAHAHA hey it could be... shit I could be black...

Right.

How can any of us live in a world that forces the kill shot?

How do we stay employed?

Because, I mean, if that is a Haiku

I just want to get Haiku credits.

You are sitting on a gold mine— literally
Sorry I have to say it
But break out of the webcam
Use code GLP for discount

Same boat. A lot of corporate jobs are still asking to be vaccinated. Just found that out on a declined interview that I was not fully qualified for.
On local news they showed one of the better bars downtown and the owner stated all his employees were vaxxed and talking business is still down.
In my blue state I am guessing close to half the companies or more are requiring vax.

I'm working on my charity. If push comes to shove, I'll welcome you to my off-grid homeless shelter of 100 acres. I believe God is going to make it happen.

Sabrina, I got a remote job but I had to retrain and work my ass off.

Let's say it was like being skinned alive. It required learning computer stuff, such as what we post on and use every day.

It looks so easy, but it's not. There are many jobs requiring this knowledge and expertise.

That's awesome! God bless you!

Believe (Sounds like you do)
Repent (Turn from your wicked ways and learn to live as Christ commands - it's the best possible life when you figure it out!)
Be baptized (Religious formality - Jesus said to do it, so we do it.)

I'm different from a lot of Christians. I believe after we're "saved" by His grace, we are required to follow His commands. There is no such thing as perfection so don't stress yourself out. It's a daily walk, it's the joy of knowing God is there and God cares about you, that He made you for a great purpose and working to fulfill that purpose, even at 50 years old. You're never too old to come to faith in the eternal.
