Currently a product marketer for a ad tech company and doing Glider Skateboards with my wife (and some friends who help on the side). Dream would be to Glider full time, but cant quit my day job just yet!

Which tech company?

[close]

Need a little anonymity here so I'll have to stay mum. But its a small-ish tech w/ ~300 employees

Totes. I'm in a HUGE tech company, so I blend in with the Zoom background. HAHA

Legit, check your local community college. You might be able to take a single course.

A lot of my friends went through those immersive bootcamps and got a great job out of it within 3-6 months. Not a bad second career chance if you're looking for a change

I travel the state of New York on behalf of von Trapp brewing

So sick, @Thom

I teach elementary school in an urban public school and it's killing me slowly. Teaching is hard, hard work. Looking to become a Michigan DNR conservation officer, but a little worried it's too close to being a cop. Idk, I think it sounds like the coolest job.

I need an $80k/yr job that doesn’t involve talking to people who need shit from me. I have a useless social science degree. Any suggestions?

Only half joking. If you find something that looks like a fit shoot me a PM and I'll walk you through it. It's the govt so of course if you so much as misname a file they'll kick your whole package back without even looking at it, so applying correctly and getting to the interview is often the hardest part. Great pay, incredible benefits (for example I get 14 hours of paid time off per pay period, that will go up to 16 soon... Just the tip of the iceberg in terms of bennies though), and once you're in it's comically easy for anyone with a brain to climb the ladder within a few years.

Pre-covid I spent about 2 hours of my work day skating in a parking lot behind the hospital. Its the easiest job in the world, and they won't even attempt to fire you unless you seriously fuck up (theft, assault, patient care incidents etc) because our union is strong as fuck. You also get a raise as long as congress keeps voting to give themselves one (so every year). Oh and good pension and retirement plans so even working in the kitchen is a realistic career.

[Sativa Lung]

I remove blood, bone, tissue, and bodily fluids off medical equipment after people die.


That's the dramatic part but actually I've mentioned before that I do housekeeping/infection control in the critical care (ICU and OR) units of a hospital. Lots of chemicals, UV light, ATP testing etc. I kind of specialize in covid these days obviously but if anyone for some reason needs to know what chemical to use on a particular disease or how to clean and properly wear their mask/respirator then by all means shoot me a PM.

when I finish this social work masters, I've thought about going toward the VA for pay and benefits and also the research opportunities to work with psilocybin, ketamine, MDMA for PTSD and suicide prevention are pretty cool as well.

I do think though that because I got myself the boot from Navy basic for a fraudulent medical enlistment, the VA won't ever hire me. Probably the only place in the world that will ever matter

In tech you can find a job that hits your salary range with just a few years of experience but human interaction is inevitable. Maybe something that’s more of an internal role such as operations or finance versus client facing like sales or client management

Social work…I’m in a similar role and honestly, fuck these people. Yea the system failed everyone and shits fucked up, but nobody wants to help themselves and I’m so burned out on it. I want to scream in my office sometimes.

I applied for some BLM jobs on there a few years ago and never heard anything back. BLM in the middle of nowhere would be the one.

You might be surprised. I have a record that makes me basically untouchable for most good paying jobs in the civilian world. As long as you're honest about it and don't try to hide it they usually don't count past transgressions against you too hard although that is a pretty specific one. As long as it's an honorable or med discharge I don't know if they'd even look at it to be honest though.

So if all you got was the automated "we hired someone else" email or you didn't hear back then I can almost guarantee no one ever even saw your application. The process goes something like this... There's a series of filters and keyword searches that get run on everything and boots out the majority of the packages, then they check to make sure you have all the necessary documentation included, then they run more filters, and THEN they actually start reading them and looking at your qualifications. There's ways to kind of exploit both the system and the interviewers as they usually have specific criteria they have to follow, but its far from a guarantee. If you do genuinely want to look into it some point just holla.

Anybody have tips on getting a graphic design job? Like I’m currently working as one in-house and have years of experience but I’m trying to get into a proper studio or agency and have been struggling.

Basically my current position is super corporate and isn’t really doing design work, just an Adobe jockey and I’d like to not do that anymore.

[Freelancevagrant]

I feel like a lot of people know what I do for work, and there’s a solid chance I’ve already chimed in here. But, I’m bored and taking a break right now so I figured I’d join in on the fun.

I drive a pump truck and suction out small septic tanks and service portapotties. The majority of my day is spending servicing portapotties. It’s a pretty gross job, but truth be told I love it. Yeah, I’ve gotten shit on me before and it’s fucking disgusting, and I’ve gotten baptized in the blue/green septic juice and it’s god awful. That being said, I get to be buy myself all day, pays really well, has good benefits and job security. Also, I’m for some reason very good at it, I’ve got a brand new Mack truck, and it’s pretty satisfying to see the immediate pay of off your hardwork.

Here’s a quick before and after video for any inquiring minds.

In the design/creative world, as cliché as it is, it's about who you know.

Second, it's about your portfolio. I've hired rad dudes based on the things I've seen them post on their IG. They're constantly making things and posting it. There are tons of creatives out there and standing out is a chore in itself.

Keep sending cold emails and connecting with people on LinkedIn. If the AIGA is hosting an event in your area - go! It's one of those things where you just need to keep putting yourself out there in order to be seen.

Right now I'm a substitute janitor and it's pretty sick. Getting up early sucks, but I pretty much get to sit on ass for 3/4 of my day which helps me not be so tired after work so I can actually do stuff I want to. I had to work in my old HS though which was both humbling and humiliating lol I'm not even that old (mid 20s) but that shit had me feeling like a fuckin dinosaur.

The best job I ever had was working in a bagel store. Hella tips, sexy girls always coming in, I could smoke weed all day and I got free food. Plus my homeboy who got me into skating was the manager so we would hella fuck around and do kickflips and shit. I feel so dumb for quitting that one

How so?

[Frank]

i'm back in the kitchen with that pyrex vision.

busting out great pizza on the daily.

good overall working climate with us allowed to chill and shoot the shit when nothing is happening as long as we don't have to prepare stuff. there's about 3 hours each evening where it gets hectic, but that's sick, too, cause it helps pass the time.

haven't gotten my tip yet, so not sure how much it's gonna be each month.

i have big money issues and probably gonna switch from full time studying to part time studying/sort of full time work until that shit is sorted out more or less.
