The Unhappy Thread

[Crimson King]

Pluvia, stop being a ****. When I was unemployed every rejection was devastating. Just let Rubyiris vent.


On topic: AT&T added a monthly allowence. This is getting ridiculous.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

Yeah, when I was unemployed and my gf wasn't I felt like ****. I felt like I was letting her and my family down. It really does feel devastating.

However, I lucked out and got a fast food job. Isn't the best, but it'll work until I'm done with college.

 

[Crimson King]

Exactly. Imagine finishing college and getting rejected for a janitor position.

Overqualified! No work experience!

Lol my brother has an economics degree and he was rejected from a job in a department store. Not enough work experience even though he'd worked at Bloomberg. >.>

He found good work in the end though.

 

[Kanelol]

as someone also trying to get a(nother) job, i can wholeheartedly say it blows ****ing ****s

and then as soon as you get a job you'll start *****ing about how ****ty your job is

life is contradiction

I hate how some people won't hire because you don't have work experience, everyone at some point had no work experience, we all have to start somewhere.

 

[Teran]

Yeah that's true lol, but a lot of schoolkids and university students look for voluntary work or summer jobs to set them up.

Thing is they look for long time work experience and it's like wtf how the hell am I meant to be born with it?

Of course that's why being connected is important, so you can slide your way past normal regs.

It's really gay how the system just kinda begs you to practice corruption to be successful.

 

[Nicknyte]

Absolutely nothing, nothing infuriates me as much as PC problems.

omfg i want to throw monitors

Technically, you still have a busted PC of fail, as well as a busted monitor. Good for you.

I became a PC Technician because I hate computers. Now they fear me.

Monitors are pretty cheap. Chuck it baybee. ****'s pretty satisfying.

Especially bigass CRT monitors.

The biggest of ***'s! The jiggly butt.

The person that was supposed to me my freaking doubles partner/ mentor has decided he wants to main metaknight. So now i'm stuck with this mediocre marth that isn't consistent.

This just proves that Brawl ruins people's lives.

Hmm, I say play melee, and brawl. But more melee. It'll help your Brawl marth out with spacing.

There always seems to be so much excuses in your posts, but you're preaching to the wrong person, I'm just here to get my point across. I doubt anyone here is actually surprised you're not doing a 8 hour day 7 days a week job at the moment, or that you're still in a crappy situation.

I'm not, but I lack common sense apparently so hell what do I know.

Edit: Ninja'd by you Teran, I need to refresh more I spend ages writing. I got my point across anyway so there's nothing more for me to say.

Damn Pluvia, the entire point of this thread is to vent, not to find contradictions in people's post and then prod them about it. To be provoked into unhappiness by being judged over and over again is just messed up. Let Ruby do what he wants. Live your life, not judge Ruby's contradictions. Play some Pokect Monsters Isshu. That's the spirit. I wish you knew Ruby IRL, that way, you'd know what he means in his posts, instead of him just being a name and an avatar.

 

[Pluvia]

It's even worse if you didn't do work experience during school.

Edit: 70% of the time I read something then write my messages only to see I was faffing about for a few minutes and got ninja'd.

 

[Nicknyte]

It's even worse if you didn't do work experience during school.

I didn't do this. I was underage.

I graduated at 16.

 

[Pluvia]

Over here you're considered an adult at 16 and you can leave school and home and get married without your parents consent if you wanted.

 

[Nicknyte]

Ahh. I see. I hear the way they take care of people overseas is much better than America. Being 16 is not even worth being excited for. In Teneesee, you can't smoke until you are 19. lol

 

[Pluvia]

Nah my theory is it's just a way to get taxes or something. Plus nobody gets married at 16 anyway so there's no point changing that.

 

[Xianglian]

I remembered when I turned 14 and got my working papers in NY. I was so excited, and I applied for like a bazillion jobs and every one told me I was too young. Fast forward 3 years. I'm still too young and I'm almost in college. Why do you have to be 18 to wash dishes? I've been washing dishes since I was 6 years old. The f*ck is this.

 

[Nicknyte]

Good Ol' American Capitalism. Feels good next to my Bacon Mayo sandwiches, and my Nuclear Warheads.

 

[Gatlin]

Arizona is heating up and getting ready for summer. I'ma miss the cool temps

 

[Luigitoilet]

I wanna play guitar but I'm so tired and I don't want to get up and walk over to it

 

[deepseadiva]

My date went... bland near the end. Maybe extremely.

That's gonna leave my spring break with a really bad after taste. Gah.

Also, the thread icons to the this make me rage. I hope your happy, LT.

 

[Gatlin]

Just saw a spider in my bathroom, and now I am all antsy. Spiders and me don't mix too well.

 

[victra♥]

i am unhappy because

mass void rays. D:<

Let it bite you, and see if you become Spider-Man. That's what I do.

 

[Black Waltz]

That's how I feel about studying. If my textbook is more than 3 feet away, I won't bother looking at it.

 

[Peeze]

You'll soon be paralyzed.

 

[Strife]

You'll soon be paralyzed.

I'm afraid of that so I just run whenever I see spiders, or any moderately sized insects.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

You'll soon be paralyzed.

Not if I get lucky.

 

[Fuelbi]

It needs to be radioactive you know that right Shimazu?

 

[Palpi]

My date went... bland near the end. Maybe extremely.

We're here for you! You'll be okay! <3

 

[deepseadiva]

That's surprisingly touching. Thank you so much, Palpi.

 

[Kanelol]

I can't stop thinking about her, but I want to. I know this whole little amorphous thing we have going on doesn't have a romantic, happy end. But she's stuck in my head. I can't get rid of her.

[Peeze]

^That's the worst!
And I've found no remedy so far.

 

[Pogogo]

Work experience is the most useful thing on a resume because thats what makes you good is practice. Its like saying I'm have a really good fox but I rarely play melee. No u don't

Two guys above me, you have to want to. Terrible advice but....

 

[Dre89]

^That's the worst!
And I've found no remedy so far.

I'm assuming committing suicide would be pretty effective, but don't do that, unless you make art and want it to be famous.

The next best thing is to ignore the negatives and focus on the positives of being single. The positives being freedom, the excitement of being able to meet someone new, and not having someone ring you when you're in the middle of playing wifi or watching football.

 

[Peeze]

A buddy of mine committed suicide last week, so not the best choice of words there.

 

[Dre89]

Sorry.

I'm surprised you're in this thread and you didn't mention that.

 

[Teran]

Work experience is only relevant if it's the same job.

The whole "get up early etc" is something we've been doing since school so..

Relevant work experience is really hard to get, and so you end up doing work experience that doesn't relate at all, which works fine on your CV/resumé but then all that shows is that we have to jump through hoops rather than actually be skilled to get far in life.

Which is pretty much why everyone is so incompetent.

 

[Palpi]

That's surprisingly touching. Thank you so much, Palpi.

I am not trying to give a false sense of security, but the more you think of something, the worse it gets. It was probably a little better than you think.

 

[Pluvia]

Generally people just want work experience so they can check with your last employers if you're a good worker. Relevant work experience usually only applies for skilled jobs, which is what school and apprenticeships are for.

 

[Rubyiris]

I got sick again. Fever, a terrible cough, bad enough to cause suffocation and vomiting periodically, hyper-sensitivity in the skin/hair, and a really bad headache. Feels like I'm blazed, only it's excruciating pain rather than pleasant and mellow.

 

[Strife]

I wish manning up was easier. I'm always afraid to tackle my problems and fix my screw ups. I just keep putting them off.

 

[Rubyiris]

I dunno about about you but I've always been the type of person to man up, admit mistakes, and do everything in my power to remedy them.

*Shrug.*

Update: I have influenza. Went to an Urgent Care, got checked out, filled my scripts. Just camping out for the next 30 'til they're ready.
