The Whining and Bitching Thread

:lol: I'm a scumbag and really don't care what you think, but I am glad you made an honest post. Society and people are scumbags and society is shit. It's not like did nothing up until this point anyways. I did worked most of the time. I guess when you have enough you have enough

Obviously not all society is shit or scumbags or you wouldn't be able to leech. There wouldn't be anything to leech. But I sympathize a little. There are a lot of shitty people, but joining them isn't the good response. Leaving them is probably the best most of us can do.

I don't understand the "had enough" talk. You're in your 20's aren't you?
 
Being a loser might suit someone, someone maybe not. I guess it depends on perception. Some people are not educated, some people have degree's and like having money, nice houses, vehicles, some people live in trailers. Some people don't care. Some people love life, some people want to be married and settle down, some people want to find love, some people hate other people and everything they are. Someone might enjoy pain, someone might want to be aloneetc... There's a cashier somewhere that might make minimum wage and have no problem with it or their life. Someone might hate the shit out of it. I guess if the lifestyle you lead is not want you want you can always wake up and do something about it. Every person makes their own choices and has freewill. I try not to do the blame game.

@CASSETTEISGOD I teach 6, 7 and 8 social studies and science. In the US there's this integrated model where they are putting special education kids in general ed classrooms. This is to help these kids move along and be more college ready. However, what they do is they put kids with bahavioral issues as well in these classrooms because there's two teachers. The result is a class where more than half is special education and the other half are kids with behavioral issues, and a chaotic classroom. My 8th graders are the worse because they are much bigger than me for the most part and they aren't on medication. I try to split the class as much as I could. It's fucking hard.

Wow. When I was in high school, I had one kid with behavioral issues in my class,.and he was taking meds half the time (and believe me, you could tell when he didn't). It was terrible at times. I can't imagine what it's like to have half a class like that. Only thing that work was totally ignoring, it actually worked the other way and when he didn't have attention, he was atleast trying to learn.

Yeah, I don't look down on people who are happy with minimal material possessions or have no lofty career/family ambitions. Just don't demand others supply whatever little you might want in life.
 
I've only been leeching off the system for 7,8 months. I took my GED when I was 17 and passed everything besides the math. And then took the math again and failed the math. I just sent out for 4 dollars for my transcripts and everything is passed besides math. So if I can pass the math on the GED then atleast have it and a back up plan. And maybe I can learn how to do something. IDK, this is where I am at right now.
 
Learn a trade. Become a plumber or HVAC tech. I have a friend who is a plumber and he does very very well. Makes me wish I had just done that instead of spending fuckall on a college degree that seemingly has little value.
 
one of my best friends went to college, got a degree, and then went to LA Trade Tech (technical school) to become an electrician. He said the week before finishing his program, which took two years, there were guys from all of the major electrical and power companies handing out business cards. He immediately got a job being a machine operator at 7 For All Mankind, a high end clothing company (I got three free pairs of jeans which would've cost $200 a pair). He now works for LA Dept of Water and Power and has a pretty sweet gig and amazing benefits
 
A lot of the kids I went to high school with were in families that worked at the docks at the Port of Los Angeles. It's stupid hard to get into the Longshoremen union. There's a five year waiting list just to be a casual. But once you're in, you're in. You can tie a rope from the boat to the dock and get paid $36/hr. Work only a few hours a day? Get paid for a full eight hours. One of my buddy's dad is a shift leader; he went to nights because it paid $50K more. Crane drivers get paid a minimum of $200k, but it takes at least fifteen years of experience to become one. As a result of all of this, most of the kids I went to high school with were absolute shitheads. They didn't care about anything because they knew once they graduated there was a sweet job waiting for them.

Of course, there is always the possibility of a container being dropped on you. It happens.
 
I worked for a lawn care company in high school and a few years into college and it firmly cemented the fact that I didn't want to work manual labor at all. Of course now I kinda miss it.
 
I worked in a grocery store warehouse for seven years as a receiver unloading trucks and processing paper work. The pay was okay ($14/hr, which is pretty good actually for a grocery store), and the hours were consistent (which never happens at a grocery store). The job itself was okay...depended on what day of the week it was and what trucks were coming in. It was nice in that I pretty much worked by myself, it was a nice mix of mental/physical labor, and I got to work around guys and tell dirty jokes all day. It was a dead end though. It helped me get through college and grad school

Yeah it's the same here in Australia with the MUA(Maritime Union of Australia) it was very hard for me to get into not having family members involved already, the wharfie's and seafarers jobs here pretty much only go to the sons of blokes already in the industry...partly because they don't want to weaken their union with softcocks or those they don't consider to be staunch. But holy shit the industry is under severe attack from the liberal govt trying to bring in foreign labour and break the unions.
