How's your job hunting go /int?

I've been a perma-neet for the better part of 20 years now.
No jobs for me, never will be.

200k

is that monthly or yearly?
before or after tax?

I started my career in a field I immediately realized I didn't enjoy and after 2 years in that job it took 6 months and 200 applications to get another job doing something different but 6 months into this new job I realize it's not a good fit for me and I don't want to stay in this role
I feel like I wasted years and years of my life with nothing to show for it. I most a masters from an elite school only to not even use it
At this point I think I'm just gonna get some cyber security certificates and try and break into that field and give that a try

I got hired finally. Took four years..
But now I am a full time, on call consultant in 3D design and animation. Mostly working from home.

dunno what I'm gonna do with that kinda money

It's all gonna go to rent and taxes. That money sounds like a lot but it's basically the equivalent of making 70k outside of California

I have an interview next week.

You can't suffer in Sweden

Congrats
Good luck

annually, before taxes. living in california will take a massive chunk out of that.

I don't think I've sent an actual application in years, I just keep telling the job offices I have so that I can keep getting neetbux.

job hunting? i ask my dad to make a few calls and i get a job

it sounds like a lot of money (and it is) but it's so unbelievably expensive to live in these parts of the US that it's not nearly as good as it sounds

Does Suomi have any perma-bux like our Sjukersättning (health induced early pension)?
It's what I got and it's nice to avoid all the job searching and demands.

I'm lucky in that I can choose to live with parents still, but yea, after taxes it's $131,906. Add in rent and it's easily under $100k

entry level dogshit ass-sucking corpo trainee job that pays 0.05€/hour has 100000000 applicants

it's quantifiably over in my country culturally speaking (no hyperbole)

that's how it should be

yes, työkyvyttömyyseläke / sjukpension
very hard to get though
it's the holy grail of neetbux

How's your job hunting go /int?

Still looking for a more decent job while i keep my shitty job though...

how hard it is to become one of these guys who work for the best companies 100% remotely? 200-300k a year and living in some cheap, remote place close to national parks or something

Sjukersättning (health induced early pension)

How did you get this? Do you have terminal butt cancer or something that throws you into a seizure every half hour?

Been unemployed for a year and a half living with my parents. I keep looking for work but there's barely anything and I don't wanna work as a cashier just to keep living with them + be more miserable but my mother hates me and I can't stand her either. If I were to get kicked out I'd seriously run away to a forest and try to survive with the money I have saved up.
Anyways I'm just trying to hold on and apply to whatever I can find (3D art and animation btw)

very unlikely. for one, lots of them require working in an office again. and the pay varies by where you reside

Thank god i'm just a CNC Machinist so i can just send a demo or file explaining how their machine works and i get the job.

geg maybe i should start spamming companies with fake applications where the introduction videos are just smvs

starting a new job on Friday. I'm 29 and I've been a neet 6 out of the past 7 years

I got a shit one after doing the humiliation ritual in your pic. It's so over

I lucked out and just do some dumb office job for the gubmint now.

Almost impossible. Most jobs require you to live in a certain state and pay based on cost of living in that area
If you live outside then they pay you less accordingly.
True digital nomad jobs are rare and usually freelance work

Ah ok. It's kinda hard here as well so I was lucky.
You basically get it if you have zero chance of having a job. Could be for any reason as long as it is documented and proven.
I have autism, social anxiety and other stuff making normal jobs/education impossible.
And I have severe chronic joint and back pain due to Psoriatic arthritis so physical jobs are also off the table.
Beyond that, I went through about three years of evaluation with psychologist and doctors to see if any meds and stuff would help. It did not.
And finally I had to try some "work capability evaluation" stuff which was basically monitored temporary employment to see how my mind and body reacted to a simple job (in my case, a slow cleaning job at night alone).
Mentally it was fine, but physically it made me bedridden with pain after a week.

So I got my stamps in my file that I cannot hold a job and that my conditions are permanent.
So now I am a legal pensioner with all the benefits and rights of it (€1600/month, extremely cheap public transport, free medical taxis which is kinda like a non-emergency ambulance that also acts as a taxi etc).

And I can live in senior only areas which is usually only for people age 60 and above which is what I do.

I found an apprenticeship in a city about an hour away. I'll be spending around 300€ a month just on gas while making 24k during my first year. I'm expecting to lose around €7k during this period.

senior only areas

my employment agent is having me do a course instead of applying for jobs

I have a bachelors and a masters working in a business role doing contract administration stuff but hate it
I am going to do some IT certifications and try and break into IT

Might as well. I live like a senior too. I might have doctors appointment or something during the week, that's it.

No you haven't wasted your life. That is not a thing. I wish you luck.

As for me, I'm looking for jobs. Anything.

They are pretty common here. Usually apartment complexes with a grocery store, small health clinic and a nice yard/park. Pic related.

I might be permanently unemployable. The only way to fix this would be to become low inhib sociopath, make up a past, and lie about everything.

1600€ a month

Wtf
Is that after taxes?

Sad

Yep. It's what I get on my account the 18th every month.

this isn't Spain Pedro

You can't suffer in sweden

alright thanks
is 70k in tax a lot?
that's as much as my net income (68k annualy)

I have an ok job right now, but am having trouble getting promoted despite working my ass off.

I have autism, social anxiety and other stuff making normal jobs/education impossible.

And I have severe chronic joint and back pain due to Psoriatic arthritis so physical jobs are also off the table.

Ok, physical jobs might be impossible, but you're just a crybaby claiming social anxiety prevents you from desk jobs. When the only other option is starving to death, people learn to work with their anxiety real quick. I have social anxiety, and i turn red in the face talking to coworkers i've known for years, but i still work.

it's easy to get a job if you have zero sense of self-worth and no self-respect.

mad innit. social security is a massive scam

?!?!?

you are describing characteristics of a neet

but you're just a crybaby claiming social anxiety prevents you from desk jobs

It's mainly my autism. I cannot read people, I have no idea how to socialize and I don't function like people.
Either way, the government have proclaimed me unemployable and that is all that matters.

Living in the least American state in the United States, with the strictest laws, highest taxes, and highest cost of living

Why are you such a glutton for punishment?
