I got into bed at 9am... It's now 13:20. Fuck. 3 more hours and I'll have been awake for 24. Rip.

@matana that's pretty cool actually

@FallenFadedLostItAll@freak.university @Nirty_Digger yeah I'm not suggesting that being a pizza driver is sustainable or anything, but you should think that some people out there would be doing it if they have applied to a dozen places and got nothing, at least in the meantime.

I don't know if my roommates and I are just extremely lucky or something but we've had absolutely no problems finding work, to the point where sometimes if a job sucks we'll just quit and go somewhere else because literally everywhere is hiring and you don't even have to be good at the job for them to keep you around, you just have to show up and not fuck up. And if it doesn't work out, the old job is still desperate enough to hire you back. My old boss still texts me sometimes asking if I need any extra money because she has plenty of hours that need to be worked. I'm not gonna do that unless I have to but I'd also be pretty stupid to burn that bridge.

I don't know if the problem is necessarily people not wanting to work, but from my experience there are places you can walk into, say you want a job, and you'll be hired on the spot, and that's not an exaggeration. Are they jobs that will necessarily be exactly what you want to be doing? Maybe not, but if you're desperate and really looking for somewhere to work then there are plenty of places to go to that will still sustain you while you look for something better.

@fluffy @Telvannichad @Eiregoat @Nirty_Digger I was under the impression that it's been like that for a while. Nobody in my family has ever actually paid off a mortgage. Houses have been bought and then sold before being totally paid off. That includes my grandparents as well. My great grandma owned her house, but that house was from like 1930 and was built by her parents; she inherited it. Unless you really knew what you were doing and made a great amount of money with low expenses, a house could take anywhere from 15-30 years to totally pay off. I don't think that's a relatively new concept. Most people don't ever actually pay off their mortgage from what I understand, shit just gets refinanced or reversed or transferred to someone else. Hell, I bet most people never actually fully pay off their car before either selling it or totaling it... Let alone a house.

If you were to buy an older house around here, your loan would actually be cheaper than renting somewhere with equivalent statistics. Of course, there are downsides and upsides to doing that.

@xianc78 see if you can find a local or relatively local shop that specializes in pc repair and the like. I got my laptop from a guy who would buy a lot of broken/old laptops from schools that were getting rid of them and then he'd basically put together all the working parts into new machines and stuff.

@fluffy @Nirty_Digger the ridiculous thing is that it's $20/hr (plus tips) for a ***pizza delivery driver***. that's all you do, you just drive the pizza and occasionally answer the phone. if i could drive i'd take up that shit in a heartbeat. that was like a minimum wage job for a long time but nobody wants to do it anymore so they have to keep increasing the wages.

$20/hr + tips is still pretty good, especially for the typical person that would be doing the job which is either someone who is pretty young or desperate for a job. maybe not in california or new york but at least where i live it's totally acceptable. if you were working full time you could totally sustain yourself as an individual and maybe even a kid if you really had to. you could rent a one bedroom apartment with your wife and kid and trade off work shifts, very easy. and a pizza delivery guy is not a hard job at all.

@Nirty_Digger the fucking WALMART isn't even open 24/7 anymore. the only place to get groceries at 4am is winco and there are like 4 stockers in there and you have to ask one of them to ring you up.

@alyx biden is cancer

@Nirty_Digger the crazy thing is that literally everywhere i live is hiring for much higher wages than they used to, places are cutting their hours drastically, and you can't even order a damn pizza for delivery at 7pm because there are no drivers. there are pizza places deadass hiring drivers for $20/hr.

nice

trying to find STLs for 3D printing guitar hero parts is surprisingly a hellish experience

anyone who asks in the discord gets completely ignored it seems like and the ones i can find or was recommended on reddit are all a bit ambiguous on whether they actually work on the GH3 Wii guitar or not

remember to SLAP that bASS

@mario @Jazzy_Butts yeah I was gonna say that's definitely something you shouldn't be asking on the internet, sounds like surgery might be required but I'm not a doctor so probably should go talk to one

@dave bruh I'm just tryna be famous
