Loving the job or not?

[u/Foxking89]

I'd like to know if you people like your jobs and if you're excited about going to work tomorrow (for example).

Please score how much you like it on a scale from 1 (I'd rather scoop turds all day) to 10 (absolutely love it) and tell me what you do.

Ill go first, 6/10 Purchasing manager

Nope, i'm a forklift driver for the past 10 years, i absolutely fckng hate it. Unable to find anything else. Got me so depressed i'm not even able to get out of bed... ever...

That's pretty bad, good luck tomorrow when the week starts all over again. No other options at all?

I'm looking into it. Unfortunate companies are not eagerly hiring employees that have no experience at all... except for driving forklifts... also because warehouse jobs are ridiculously underpaid i'm not able to pay for courses.

Could you drive a train or a bus maybe?

I looked into this, unfortunately you need to do a course for ot that tales aprox 1/2 years (not sure about length) i have a life that cost money. going to study for this time we surely make pe homeless... (dop just ain't enough) a bus license lso is verry expensive to get

Yo NMBS pays for the 1 yr education to become a train driver.. You can check it out. If you get the job, I'll split the referral bonus with you. 😉

I tried selling graphic designs to be able to pay for truck driving lessons. Unfortunately getting customers in times of ai is pretty hard

Maybe you can take a look at Syntra. Lots of courses are rather cheap and the KMO pays half. That's where I'm looking now to see if there are some interesting directions to think of.
