Fucking help me Cred Forums

Im so fucking burnt I cant even function to go to school at night, plus im closing shift.

was working on a trade to be a mechanic, got told to get out while I still could by my teachers with 40+ years in the industry. Im good with this but I dont want to work this my whole life. Looking at coding.

I usually am good at detaching, 90% of the time im fine, but the one out of 20 real rude or shitty customer will ruin the rest of my shift, cant bounce back

Then your nr.1 priority for now should be to learn how to bounce back from rude customers i suppose?

Yeah, im bad at that aspect. Ill say serving the basic white girls and the snobby rich people has worked to improve my patience a little bit, but im so far off. I finally came to the conclusion that I cannot do any customer service at any level. The only customers i like are the guys, theyre always respectful and not total fucking idiots

I don't have much advice, but thank you for actually looking to improve your life rather than making another shitty "best suicide method?" thread. So fucking sick of depressed pre-teens whining about middle school.

Join the army

Dont go HVAC of you can't handle customers. One of the worst parts of the job is customers constantly bitching and not wanting to pay. It gets to everyone, and will never go away.

Learn a damn skill. Learn a fucking language.

GIT GUD SCRUB

Just had to deal with more shitheads, and probably getting a new one torn for it by my boss.
>Two teen girls came in, said their mom called in an order and already paid
>tell them we had no phone calls all day and theyre probably mistaken for the other location we have nearby
>get angry, tell me this is the store they called

>call boss
>boss calls their mom who apparently happened to be in the hospital and cant talk
>thisisascam.jpg
>get told to make their shit by boss and stall
>girls are getting angrier and angrier start picking up shit on the front counter and messing with it
>story changes to their mom ordered this shit a few days ago and they never picked it up
>changes again to "she called and complained and your boss said its ok!"
>boss says this isnt true over text while frantically calling their mom to no answer
>Finally just say fuck it and let them have the drinks, cant wait on my boss to try and call their mom
>boss is pissed, says she'll talk to me later about it

what the fuck else was i supposed to do? Its busy and I cant waste time over two drinks costing less than 10 bucks total. If i get written up or anything, im quitting on the spot.

I hate my desk job but if you hate dealing with customers it's a worthwhile trade-off. Instead of dealing with Karens I can just slot my headphones in and file paperwork all day.
FUCK the commute though.

Go to day school if you work nights. And by "mechanic" do you mean auto mechanic? Because large engine mechanics, airplane mechanics etc are in high demand and will continue to be. If that's your passion, that's what you should be doing.

Auto, probably would move onto aircraft down the line. I thought it was a passion since its a hobby for me but I realized i dont enjoy it as a job

All a matter of perspective, user.

I have been a waiter and also a desk jockey. Of course I make more in the office, and I sit in A/C all day instead of standing for 8-12 hours almost nonstop and relying on ass kissing/humor for tips. But guess what? Now I miss it. I don't make substantially more... salary is nice but it's literally only enough to survive on your own in a non shithole area. Sometimes I will go days without human interaction. The women at my job are either married or fugly... I do nothing meaningful, I literally just flip workbooks and talk about numbers to an audience who pretends I know what I am talking about. Because it is professional and corporate, everyone always has their guard up, no one exposes themselves, no one is authentic.

Getting pussy as a waiter was so fucking simple. And if it blew up it didn't fucking matter the girl would quit and they'd hire a new one to bang. Literally infinite pussy, it was crazy and I was dumb enough to get locked down in a relationship during my time. Oh and I also liked not feeling locked to my job. If they ask you to do something you genuinely don't wanna do, you just quit that shit and go work at DD instead of SB. I am locked in a cubicle rn because my piss is dirty because I smoke weed 24/7 because I hate my job, they can literally hold that over me and make me comply.

Why'd I type all of that? Of course I like my desk job better than waiting tables, but everything has its benefits and costs. Being a barista fucking sucks, yea, but there are some pros that you can get out of it too.
