Somehow it seems only autistic people get that lucky. It's not fair.
Nathaniel White
The unemployed community college guys in their 20s always look extremely pathetic. Our teacher would always razz him about reading comic books and living with mommy.
Caleb Barnes
I mean you're in school so what's the problem? She's probably right though. You have a ton of free time you're probably not taking advantage of. By the time you graduate, if you aren't going straight to the workforce that free time will just become depressing.

damn I really fucked up
Henry Miller
she's completely right, my free-time is already depressing and it's why I started studying in the first place. and she's like a super-normie who is busy every day. she's nice about it though, the other day she said she feels like she needs to adopt me to teach me how to live lol
this is like me except i finished in 2010 and didn't do anything at all until this year
Ian Perry
I thought about what I could do but really there isn't much. I don't know shit and couldn't even get an apprenticeship as a plumber.
applied at a school to get back into education but they just said "nope we're full". The job center wanted to send me to a very low paid job but I was only there for like a week until they told me to get out of there because I was fucking up so much.
So after I got rejected a billion times by schools, by companys, by girls I just stopped trying. Like why even bother when you already know you're shit and what the outcome Will be.

I really hate that I have to live this life. You should be able to tell a doctor you want to die and arrange to get put down peacefully. I'm happy to be harvested for people who want to live.
Nathaniel Reyes
yeah that sounds pretty crushing. I haven't been looking or applying for stuff all these years. literally never applied for a job, so I haven't had to face much rejection. this is essentially my first attempt at tertiary education and it's going well so far. it has also provided me with my first income which is neat
Jose Jones
How easy is it to be NEET in like Sweden or wherever? Does the government give you enough to afford an apartment, internet, and booze? Do you have to check in with a job center every six months or something?
Austin Anderson
>tfw escaped the NEET lifestyle a few months ago by getting a nice office job
It's actually fun and I hate myself significantly less.
Mason Bailey
I had like 2 job interviews where I bothered to show up. I was laughed out the door everytime and the guy who did the interview just asked me awkward questions until I just got up and walked away. I send out my CV and stuff and I always get rejections in return, I show the job center that I try and even they gave up after a while, they still force me to try but they know it leads nowhere.
It kinda sucks to know that you won't ever be able to live on your own but on the other side I don't even want a job anymore, I can't deal with the stress or coworkers and I can't learn anything anymore. Shit is fucked way beyond repair m8.
You can be glad that you made it out of the hole, you're like batman with the broken spine who climbs out this cave
Jason Rivera
that sounds awful m8. I'm not out of the hole yet tho. I still live at home, my student allowance is nowhere near enough to live off of, and im nowhere near ready for a job, no license, no friends, etc. But yeah I'm getting there, learning to catch buses and trains and even talk to people a bit
i still feel like i could crash and burn p easily tho. that's always there. good luck

iktf bro. Ive been out of the adult loop for too long. Cant be fucked dealing with responsibilities and shit. I think the only kind of work i can cope with is being a cleaner in some giant empty office block. Listening to podcasts all day.

anyone else terrified of the finality of getting a job? as in a typical 40 hour 9-5 or equivalent. the idea of that just being what i do from now on until ??? is fucking scary. i imagine turning into one of those people who have nothing to look forward to except a couple holidays sprinkled in where they just watch tv or drink or something because they're too tired or too mentally neutered from their job to do anything else.
i feel like contract work would be more appealing to me. does anyone here have any experience with that?

Strange how many young men don't manage to find a place in society.
I wonder what the fuck I was born for, the most meaningfull thing I did was posting here and watching movies.
What are your plans for the future? I think I will kill myself once parents are gone or when I have to go homeless.
I don't even think I would be cappable to do this, I have no motivation and sometimes have just to zone out in order to function barely.
I did cleaning for like half a week and they constantly complained I wasn't doing it right.
Jacob Ramirez
I was a NEET for 4 years after high school and I started working at my local movie theatre in May. Slowly getting used to being normal.
Parker Reyes
Everyone is afraid of a life like that, but it's inevitable and time will dull the pain. We'll all soon become cogs in the grand machine.
Landon Thompson
Yes, after neet life a 9-5 job sounds like pure lunacy to me. I cannot possibly justify the independence, higher social status, potential gf, more goods when so much of my time is going to be spent miserable. Its a shitty trade-off.
Connor Wilson
You guys don't know real depression until you hit your mid 30's and are still posting here in the middle of the night.

Been NEET ever since.
Isaac Perez
Are you me? Because that's my life in a nutshell. I can't seem to enjoy myself anymore. The only thing that'll make me feel like I still have purpose is if I had any friends to hang out with. The only way to make friends around here is at college and even then they all suck.

Carter Peterson

What a nightmare. I get terrified by my incompetence with IT. Facing the same scrutiny in cleaning would kill me.
Still think there is a dreamjob where im cleaning by myself and theres noone around to judge. Has to be one for a poor old neet.

No, no, yes. A couple shitty part time jobs with irregular hours and no benefits, just enough to survive and fuel my pill addiction.

I hate driving. I suck at driving, so if I can't get a job within a 4 minute drive, fuck it.

>i imagine turning into one of those people who have nothing to look forward to except a couple holidays sprinkled in where they just watch tv or drink or something because they're too tired or too mentally neutered from their job to do anything else. That's all I enjoy as a NEET. Drinking once a week and watching new TV. I've kinda gotten into vidya again but eh.
Matthew Brown
It was horrible, they would talk down to me like to a retard and I didn't even get the most basic respect. Just got treated like trash by trash people who lash out their anger on somebody who has it worse.
My friends all went to uni and now work 9 to 5 jobs, they all left the city and are now somewhere else. I tried getting a gf in the past but it never worked out. Funny, i'm a 26yo NEET and a touchless virgin. Does it get more fucked up than that?

Juan Murphy
same here. imagine having to drive for like 45 mins on really busy roads/interstate twice a day, having huge trucks almost kill you daily because the on-ramp isnt long enough, and becoming one of those people who complains about traffic. i'm sure that's not a long commute for some people, pure torture for me though.
i'm glad i got fired

How? I have no money for a gym and no idea about eating right, right now I struggle to eat 1000+ cal a day.
I'm weak, my body is weak, my mind is weak and I have no motivation and no will.
Even if I somehow turned things around I don't feel like it would hold any meaning to me, I already gave up
some people just don't have it in them

yes. Drone work IS meaningful and has purpose! Believe that.

Do you live in the complete sticks? No way they can't find you some shitty data entry position that's not a 3 hour commute.

surely there's some limit to the commute they can offer? idk shit about job help agencies, the infrastructure around here is so bad i'd be surprised if some service like that existed

If possible user, the best way I try to keep myself sane is going for a walk around my neighborhood. Helps my thinking process and it's nice to get some fresh air after being cooped up inside the house. Night time is the chillest time to walk. Though I'm lucky to live in a good neighborhood.
