24-year-old NEET here.

Come at me.

Mom cut my internet if I didn't get a job. Couldn't find any job so she had me drive her to work and pick her up.

I guess that's a job. Atleast I play games everyday.

Work part time at a stationery shop, and I'm also studying translation.

I work two jobs and go to college.

I'm work at a day care during the day, then go to class, then deliver pizza for a local shop.

I find time to be DM for Dungeons and Dragons and keep up with the vidya gaems between homework, school, and work so quit yer bitchin'

I work on a PSV as a second mate, $140k/year, 1 month on, 1 month off.

SYNERGY!

Web Integrator.

i'm a carpenter, i work for my father

i hate every fucking bit of it, but at least i'm learning how to do it

i want to make movies ;_;

Male prostitute. I'm serious.

> That feel when most of my gaming-bros mostly consists of IT guys and I'm just a humble carpenter.

I feel so out of place in Skype sometimes.

I work at a place similar to gamestop.
The place lets you try out the games before you buy them (Or don't buy them at all.).
Its mostly consoles but we have the older gen stuff like the genesis, game cube, xbox, etc.
There is also disk repair and console repair but all I do is stand around and organize shit and then go in the back and play video games

Unemployed centrelink bum here
Wanna become a cook though, unfortunately no one will hire you unless you have experience and most course wont accept you unless you have work in the industry before

Going to university to study genetics. Got to get a job this summer or I'll have to go on benefits/welfare, which means I need to queue up at the job centre with all the lowlife scum.
But I'm lazy as shit and probably won't bother my ass to find a job anyway

>>136282739

holy shit your mom just wants you to have something to do

I work in the planteria at a garden centre.
one of the most enjoyable jobs i've had, getting to work outside all day. Shame the pay is shit.

I study health sciences at university, and work some below minimum wage job washing up in a restaurant.

Fucks sake, i can do better

I paint peoples homes/apartments. Surprisingly I get paid decently, being a failure at life isn't so bad all the time.

Firefighter. 24 on 48 off. It's pretty great considering I bring my laptop to work and can just fuck around when there isn't a fire or car wreck.

I do marketing for EA on /v/. It's the only job I could get in India.

I'm a customer service manager at a hobby lobby.

$13 an hour.

it was pretty nice but theres nothing left to do

I work at a movie theater as a concessionist. It's alright.

I'd love to work at a bookstore though.

>>136282023
Fellow cook here! What restaurant? Red Robin for me. Might be training to expedite soon so I can get dem tips.

I work in hospital on weekends, Tuesday and Wednesday as a lab assistant at my university. And i'm on MSc Biochemistry.

I get enough dosh to stay affloat, and whats funny, i have enough time to game.

Life is good.

25 and I only worked once, for six months until I was so exhausted and miserable I wanted to end my existence.

I'm not cut out for working, so I live on welfare, lol!

I work in an office and right now I'm knee deep in some legal issue I couldn't resolve because I was afraid I would screw it and now here it is back to rape me.

I'm currently sitting alone, considering suicide.

My only happy thought is that at least I won't live to see Michael Bay destroy TMNT.

>>136283704

No. My brother does.

I'm surgical tech.

>>136283621
Since he isn't answering me (I'm >>136283178) I can help a little I guess.

My family had been fishing in the area for years and you just have to find someone that is able to get you a job or speak to the captain themselves at the dock. The worst kind of person is the one who is walking around the dock with his bag asking "Need another guy?" or "Need another crewman?" practically begging for a job so look in the papers or at little info boards in the area for boats that need crewmen. If you've never fished on a boat like this before you might want to start of smaller by doing some longlining or seining (best place to find a boat for these are out of Sitka, Petersburg, or Ketchikan). That way you can learn the ropes before just tossing yourself onto a massive vessel with no idea about anything. Out of the towns listed some boats do a red crab season in November and the boats/pots are much smaller which makes it much easier to learn how to do everything and the captains are more willing to show you how to do it because its not as rushed or feral as fishing out on the Bering Sea.

>>136283903
>suicide
Been there bro, let me know if you really need help.

in my shitty country, my financial outcome is eh at best, I work as an assistant teacher for special needs classes and do carpentry at home.

I'm the little asian that makes your ikea furniture JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA

I work on a fishing boat every year for about 4-5 months in Norway (I am from Sweden). Rest of the year I just game and do basically nothing.

Good pay and easy work, in my opinion.

No grease-monkey bros in here?

Oh, I forgot... Once you get into cars you lose all interest in vidya. I only play Killing Floor these days, I guess you could say I'm now a filthy casual, compared to my 90-110 hours/week days of WoW.

You fucking fat faggot.

oh wow, thanks thats a much more helpful response than i thought i was gonna get! i guess sometimes /v/ IS good for something!

>>136283787
How do you get hired at a place like Red Robin as a cook? I always wanted to work at one but I see shit like 5 years experience in field needed and stuff like that. I'm really good at cooking at home but goddamn.

Cooking in a restaurant isn't like cooking at home. It's not fun at all, you burn yourself all the fucking time, and everyone bitches at you.

Seriously, cooks are some of the shittiest people ever.

That being said, you could always just lie. Somewhere like RR, you don't need more than a year or two, tops.

>>136284318
My friend put a good word in for me. They hired me despite no prior experience and trained me for 5 days. If it's a place like Red Robin you don't need fancy skills as opposed to something like the Cheesecake Factory.

>>136284334

I have over 10,000 hours recorded on Xfire from WoW, and that was from when I had it on for maybe 2-3 years out of the 5.

Next highest was Battlefield 2, somewhere close to 1600 I think.

Full time Bachelor of Arts student, ~27 hours a week as a cashier at Walmart in Canada.
Decent amount of time for vidya, and once a week my bros and I play some casual MTG.

6+ years in the field.

Though it's not always true, you're right. Yesterday, my co-workers and I made a bowl out of a carrot so we could smoke during our shift (we had maybe 5 tickets all day. ALL DAY).

It's a crapshoot. Sometimes you get total bros. Other times, you get the kind of people who only work in kitchens because they can't talk to anyone without losing their spaghetti.

Haven't played it since like 96 but I would dare say if my work was like that everyday it would be way more intense. Also that game was fun. It was either that or Ski-Free.

I currently make rooms in hospitals (make beds, clean, polish etc.). Im also studying electrical installation at college. Still not sure if that is the path i will take though.

Work at a store that's like wal-mart with a thousand times more class. part of Kroger.

I get a discount on just about anything including vidya, just about a PIC but trying to go to college at the same time Probably not going to happen

If a IT Admin job opens up in the local school district I can work there, but fuck I've invested too much time into my current position.

Wish I had more time to do what I want though.

I quit my job due to back pain.

Right now I'm between jobs though, hoping to get some work teaching Japanese over the summer before law school starts.

PSE clerk for the post office. Have to be at work by 6:30 everyday and do lots of lifting, and then I stuff the PO boxes with mail. It's fucking worth it though: the pay is pretty good and I get at least one day off per week. I also get home from work at around noon or earlier.

I used to do that shit everyday from the age of Fifteen with my parents signing my consent to work at the local grocery store till I finish high school. Not to mention cutting and transporting lumber for our wood furnace back in my parents house. My back hurts every day still from that shit. If you need money you just suck it up.

>>136287101

Nothing. Don't need to spend £40 to have a doctor tell me what I know. Its not a case of self diagnosis on the internet, its back pain. The kind that hurts and pressures all day, every day.

On the contary, I enjoyed the work myself. It was airport luggage loading by the way. I like manual work, but it just came to it that my prior work and this work really did a number on my back, so I figured I'd sit out for a while to try and get it to recover before it reaches the breaking point, so to say.

I have enough money to last me a year out of work too.

>>136286924
I was thinking about trying to apply there when they were hiring, though after seeing all the shit the post office is going through i don't think they will be any time soon.

>>136287665

Neither did I.

Try and find a student job for something you can enroll in back in your hometown. Find something you can tolerate. That is the key to finding a decent career if you feel that way.

I work in the seafood and meat departments at a grocery store. I am a great worker, but I hate doing it. I have been working customer service since I was 16 its been 7 years almost. Sucks balls.

how about you try to get short internships at different jobs?
i first went worked in a bookstore for about 4 weeks and although it was fun, it really wasn't for me. then i worked for a low level IT job which was basically packing pcs and sending them around or answering calls.
then i got into an internship as a coder and now i got a good job i enjoy

I make about 65K a year

Enough money for all the games I need.

I know man, I got lucky as fuck. Doesn't hurt that your family friend is the supervisor that works directly under the postmaster.

>>136287835

In that case I take back what I said.

Rest that shit up, and see a doctor if it won't break your bank account. Over here it's free to see the doctor and shit so I never pay no mind and visit mine nearly every two months. Once your back is permafucked there is no going back.

>all these relatively normal jobs

I'm actually pleasantly surprised /v/, most of you are on your way to moderate financial success. Good work.

I'm in my junior year of college studying quantitative economics. It's pretty cool and I should be able to find a job right out of college... if not, I'll just wait a semester or so and start grad school.

My plan/dream is to become a stand-up comic full time. I already have about 40 minutes of material. At the very least, even if I can't become professional, I can keep doing it as a hobby.

Working is burning your precious life on nothing. You might as well have fun for the short duration that you're here.

>>136288047
Yeah thanks man, I don't know about you but not many people believe me when I state my backpain. I guess its due to my age, people assume that I haven't had an intensive enough life to get that pain. I used to just get told its me adjusting to hard work, but I know thats not the case after over 300 days of intensive work.

Im a plumber, i fucking love my job.

>>136288225
Mostly people without or in dead-end sucky jobs. Surprises me to see a good amount of people in at least some form of stable career.

>>136288504

i was a NEET too not long ago, and it's just boring as fuck not doing anything all day. enjoy wasting your time

>>136288403

If I had my time back I would have been a male Nurse. I love helping people but could never become a Doctor. I am smart but I doubt I could ever get that far. I love helping people but sometimes you just can't do what you actually have passion for.

I get government money because of a "social problem".

I WAS a bartender, but the place shut down.

Now I'm looking for work... sorta. It was fun while it lasted.

Hi Chris Chandler.

im a carpenter mostly working on bathroom and kitchen remodels

the hours are pretty good (pretty typical blue collar work 8-4 monday thru friday) and leave all evenings and weekends for gaymen, and the pay is pretty good if you are in a union. also its not very hard work unless you are hauling materials

>>136283903
> I won't live to see Michael Bay destroy TMNT.

Am i the only one who was even kind of looking forward to that ?

I work for two older therapists who mostly do family work. I do the preliminary screenings of clients to see which one they should talk too on a more permanent basis. Started as an intern during my grad school studies.
Pays well, but I make nothing compared to what they get.

I teach retards how to use a mouse and keyboard so they can get a job, easiest job in the fucking world.

You people need to think about joining an armed service if you're that desperate.

I recently got laid off and there are absolutely no jobs in this tiny ass city that are not 'May I take your order?' So, I head on over to the recruiting center and 2 months later I'm shipping out in August to flying unmanned ariel vehicles.
That's right. I am going to have a six year job of playing IRL vidya gaems. Plus since I'll get a pilot's licence out of it and a military background, every airport in the midwest is going to be begging for my dick.

Hell, I'm even leaving behind a fiancee for it. I have to wait 6 years to settle down. If you're alone and in a basement, there is really no better option.

That's not a road you want to go down, man. Have a friend who's a military wife. She miserable as hell and often bitches about how her hubby isn't around to take care of their kid. She's only 24 too.

i'm really happy that most of us at least have a job.

now the big question :
would you like to work for vidya?

>>136288691
Don't project your lack of imagination on other people. There is an infinite spectrum of people that have adopted the NEET lifestyle. Some suffer from it, some have a blast. I can approximately tell where you stood while you were in that position.

Also, all this daytime normalfaggotry on /v/ is sickening. Ah, can't be helped.

Funny. My friend is in the Army in 82nd Airborne Division. There's a few photos of him in his uniform with his helmet, but for some reason, I see him post on FACEBOOK many times a day as if he's not really doing jack shit.

>>136289347

Fuck her.

>>136289347

4 of my best friends are in this situation. Two of them are divorced.

Coincidence? Nope. Never get married and be a soldier who gets displaced around in the Military. You will hate your life.

As a person who has their Bachelor's in computer science: FUCK THAT SHIT. The hours are too long for me. Plus a lot of developers have been doing some downsizing.

>>136289383
keep crying NEET. enjoy shitting in the garbage bin

>>136289369
No. It's one of the shittiest industries. Just look at this shithole.

Im a nurse in a hospital for disabled children, i keep track of and administer medication and aid in rehabilitating people through physical therapy.

I was convinced I was gonna be a level designer when I was about 9 or 10. I used to practice by creating ridiculous campaigns in age of Empires1 and 2.

I remember one where you controlled Romans fighting all different races that had been body snatched by Aliens,

Everyone needs to play a part in society. And those people get rewarded. Do you know how fucking good a pay check feels?

RAF Pilot. I went in wanting to fly fighter jets but im just a transport pilot. I haven't piloted anything other than a C-130 outside of training.

I used to fix computers for a living, now I'm a full time engineering student. hardly any time for vidya :/

>>136289541

Find your waifu yet?

>tfw I only ever wanted to be a games journalist. Deep passion in the industry, analyist level interest but it doesn't mean jack shit. So long as I play CoD and write like 15year old I'll be the best journalist evar.

where and what major? i start this fall... i really hope the rumors of no free time are false.

>>136289458

You do know that the military is an 8-hour shift per day, right? You're just on call in case anything happens.
Meaning you get paid 24-7 for the time you're in.

>>136289347
Not like I want to leave her, but thankfully we're only 20 now. No kids, she's in college, and neither of us will leave the other. We're too happy.
Thank god I get a day off every 12 days. I can save them up and have a month of vacation per year. They even let travel time not be counted against you, so the plane rides won't crew up valuble time I could be with her.

>>136289859
Im 25 and we rarely see patients older than 15. That would just be really creepy not to mention highly illegal.

Ive thought about something like this, what did you do before you got the job, degree, requirements? I heard that people who control remote submersible probes make bank and they work everywhere cause they are contracted out.

I'm a full time student in highschool. By next year I hope to be enrolled in the Fire Academy or in culinary school.

>>136289524

Very true. I'm friends with a guy who used to work for EA in Redwood City CA. He had to commute all the way from the east bay to there which was like a 2 hour or more commute, had to work long hours until 10pm, commute back, and not get paid much. He worked on the team that made The Sims for a while. Now he works for a group of people that broke off from EA and is working on a project that's like Second Life.

After my freshman year of high school, I took a summer game developing class. The teacher was some Russian guy named Gregg/ He even told everyone that the industry is something that you don't want to work for.

Just make them love you so that they return at 18 with open legs.

That feel when NEET. Oh well, at least I had the fortune to be born to wealthy parents.

>That feel when I was able to buy Kid Icarus Uprising, put money towards my student loan, took my friend out to Applebee's and STILL have a good bit of money in my pocket

Fucking love being employed.

I like to draw, Have played guitar for 8 years and got my best marks in chem/bio/physics. Been NEET for 2 years now, what should I get into that I would enjoy?

>>136290235
Why would i want to?

>>136290297

Waifus.

>>136290363
Get help

>>136290074

I guess so. The only thing I've heard him talk about is guard duty. He's in Kandahar Afghanistan. But seriously. He's on Facebook a LOT.

System administrator for Windows, Unix and Mainframe for fucking IBM. I love the technical side of my job, but love this fuckers love metrics and a lot of shit that actually doesn't make any fucking sense.

the military is funny like that. youll have a week of getting home at noon, doing nothing. then youll have a week where shit needs to get done 3 years ago and your working 22 hour shifts. it comes and goes in waves like that.

>>136290076
I know...I have to do this someday. I just don't know how to go about it.

However, its something I want to figure out myself.

>>136290646
look at your monitor straight on

I need to decide on a major fast, but nothing seems to interest me in particular. I'm thinking about going to nursing school to become a male nurse because my mom does it and she seems to have a half-decent time at work while still making a good amount of money.

>>136290848
your mum is a male nurse?

Yes I have been confronted, niggers and students come at me all the time, but hey, a job is a job right?

Im waitress at a local family owned resturant. I dropped out of my biology degree and dont know what to do next really.

>>136290848

Your mom is a male nurse?

>>136290797
>someday
no fuck that, write an article now!

>>136290848
man nurse bro

where would you be interested in working? RNs are very flexible

>>136290934

yep

>>136290505

>Guard duty
Sadly, at least in this case, we're not Brits. Our soldiers do not stand at attention wearing funny dress uniforms for hours on end for guard duty.
We give them a direction to watch, remind them we can execute them for leaving a guard post during wartime in a combat zone, and let them count dirt.
It's the biggest reason I didn't go infantry. If you're not on a combat mission, they need to find something for you to do, and that's guard duty.

>>136290982
You sir are a hero. Everyone hates you, people get up in your grill. But you take all of it, you do your job, a job that needs to be done no matter how many people whine about it.

I salute you.

>>136290982
True. I'm sure you can do better than that though.

I have a 6000 word piece on the divide in 'casual' and 'hardcore' gaming, and the effect it has had on the industy sitting on my computer.

I'm not sure what to do with it. I feel its a great piece myself, but It need a platform.

>>136291073

I would have to do some research before I could tell you. I've heard a lot of stories from my mother, so probably the floor where I have to bath fat people the least.

>>136290768

I just don't understand. We've been in the Middle East for years and you hear about humvees blowing up, people stepping on bombs, and the Valley of Death. You'd think he'd be out there shooting shit and patrolling areas, but he's watching boxes or something and posting on Facebook half of the day. I don't even know what computer he's posting from, since I knew he never had a laptop or an interesting phone.

Sports journalist. Get off work around midnight, vidya 'til 3 a.m., /v/ 'til 4, sleep, vidya, work.

Not a bad life.

I work at a skate shop, actively involved in the industry. Aside from that I go to school and play the vidya.

Neither do ours, those are palace guards who ceremonially protect the queen.

Our actual soldiers are no different from yours really.

>>136289458
If he's currently deployed that's not really surprising.

My dad is a retired colonel in the Marines and he always told me it was something like 5% action, 95% waiting. As in, even if you're deployed, shit isn't blowing up every five minutes. Instead it's more like once a week or so. Even in WW2 it was like that, which Saving Private Ryan and Pacific do a pretty good job of demonstrating.

If he's not deployed, then he basically is doing paperwork or maintenance or some other busy work/processing work.
