    I work at Krystal. you know, that fast food joint that opened up like seventy years ago, sells little square burgers, that ripped off White Castle. that one, I work there, and the other day, I was doing my thing, flipping burgers and making burgers and boxing burgers and bagging burgers and handing out the burgers, and I can't do this for another year.

    I couldn't give two fucks if this place went under tomorrow. really, the world would be better off if it did. so why have I devoted forty hours of my life every week for the past year to a fucking burger chain?

    really, I'm considering just walking out and seeing what I can do on my own. I have no career ambitions. I want to do stuff that actually matters, travel around the country, meet new people, get into trouble, all that shit. I can't waste any more time at this place or any other job. it's bullshit and I can't stand for it.

    only thing is, how can one support himself without a steady job? I don't care about living comfortably, necessarily, but money for gas, food, and cigarettes is a must.

    even if living as a hobo was my only other option, I think I'd choose that over a job any day, but I want to see if you guys have any tips for me at all before I totally wreck any chance I might have at a stable life.

    Move to somewhere where weed is easily accessible. Get the same boring job and do it stoned all the time. Suddenly, your problems are solved. Keep surfing r9k for life!

    but that's still a total waste of my valuable time, I'm just sedating myself so it isn't as painful.

    Live my life.

    Do numerous shitty low-paying jobs, while being constantly drunk or on some sort of drugs while browsing 4chan/at the pub. Every now and then leave your room to follow your best friend to whichever obscure country they're going to.

    Last time i followed her to Nepal. I found out that i hate fucking Nepal.

    Learn to be a master thief. There's a lot of money to be had in art theft, for example, and you get to travel the world, be your own boss, etc.

    Learn to pick locks and make disguises, then wear a leisure suit and quiet shoes.

    Yeah, save up like 4 grand and get an in-demand layman's tech degree, that will atleast bump you up into middle-lower class, which doesn't suck at all imho. Or just anhero, because you will eventually end up a hobo even if you waste your first best 20 years adventuring.

    Enjoy your disillusionment with modern existence. It will stay with you until you die.

    I wish I could live the same kinda life you're talking about. You could just save up some money and set off, maybe get a job in whatever country you're in at the time when funds run out. Then re-build funds, and set off again. That's what my parents did, but I fear that this would be harder nowadays when jobs are harder to get and it's all "official".
    They had a friend called Geoff who, once he'd finished university, got some money together and just bummed around various countries. This sounds a bit more sensible, if more soul-crushing.

    If that's true and you're still worried about your own existance, you must be pretty high maintenence.

    If you want excitement, become a dealer.

    I used to work at Burger King hopped up on opiates.

    It was fun. I miss that job.

    What shitty jobs are we talking about?

    Numerous and many.

    1) McDonalds. I used to work there alot, now i only work a single 2 and a half hour shift per week, sometimes a nightshift. I don't quit because i like the people there. They're my friends.

    2) A job agency. Occasionally they call me up and tell me to go to some big fancy event and pick up glasses from tables, clean dishes or work behind the bar. I do that job because it's a nice change of pace every now and then.

    3) Job number 3, convenience store. I sit behind a counter for 30 hours per week. It's boring.

    4) I repair computers for people. Put adverts in the local papers. It's nice and easy.

    You can only live this lifestyle if you have a very good friend. I rely on her, she relies on me. Without each other, our comfortable easy lifestyles cannot continue. But i do warn you - you will every now and then suffer from severe disillusionment. You will wonder what the hell you're doing with your life. Hence the reason you save money so that you and your friend can occasionally go off to some random country for a few weeks and climb mountains.

    Ultimately, it's a nice stress free life, with nothing much to worry about. But you will need an incredibly good friend, bordering on soulmate, and the ability to cope with random but short bursts of depression.

    God speed, anon.

    I'll need a lot more than some advice from a random stranger if I really want to make it, but you have been very helpful, and indeed the ONLY helpful person in this thread thus far. I appreciate your input, anon.

    No problem. Just one slacker trying to help another slacker. I'm afraid this is probably the best advice you can be given for the lifestyle you are aiming for. The rest you must figure out as it comes.

    That's nice man, but I just made all that stuff up. I'm actually a fat 24 year old who lives and works in his moms newsagents and smokes disgarded cigarette ends because he can't afford to smoke.
