Being a male doesn't help either. Not even worth applying around here if you're aren't a female and can't be considered by society to be at least an 8.

Working till 9 at night, and almost every Saturday or Sunday is shit. and $45-50k is the norm now. shit shit shit
I'm not trying to clown on it. The job I will have to settle for when it comes soon will pay less than that. I'm just sayin...
Yes, we are. Another reason why I'm struggling. Folks making 60-80k that used to make 150-250k etc. Those folks are beating me out for jobs no doubt.
Let's not forget these folks making 50k also owe twice that in Student Loans, myself included. Student Loan payments equal my mortgage. throw in forbearance, and I'm screwed and extra 10 years on top of 10 years already. A lot of folks in the same boat. We're screwed.
Car sales can be good money. I know a few people in that field. Money management during the good and bad times will get you by.
I agree with shdw. Come up with a real, real good reason for having not worked in a year.
I honestly wish you the best, as you seem like good people.
Thanks man! And you can say that again. I had a place that wouldn't even take my app because I've made more than that before. It's like discrimination is now legal too. Lol
im ready to settle for just about anything now, but like stated, I get discriminated on for all the wrong reasons. Giving the opp, they will find out real quick they got great talent for cheap, and I'm looking for a career as well if it presents itself. Damn sure know I don't want to go through this mess again...
Really? I can't think of an easier product to sell. A tangible, visible product that they came knocking on your door to take a look at. Just have your brother get you on and give it a shot. I know a complete jerk off that makes 6 figures. I know it might not be what you want to do, but why not just give it a go? Nothing to lose.
It's not the product, it's the approach they use. I'm a no haggle guy. If they would let me figure out every car on the lot and make the money both of us are happy with then I could do that, but they won't. And don't say carmax as their cars are way overpriced. I just don't like the thought of screwing someone over. I'm good at buying cars and don't like feeling like I'm taking advantage of someone. I don't even buy cars from my brother because I've always gotten a better deal elsewhere even with the "family discount". Imagine that.
Well it's somewhat true anyways. A few stocks have kept me afloat for sure.
If you are willing to move to louisiana I could get you an easy job making 65k a year or a hard job(to start) making close to 100k not counting ot in the oil business.
Youre lifestyle would take on some radical changes.
For instance you would go offshore in a helicopter for 7 days then come home for 7 days.
So every other week you would be away from home but you would also get a 1 week vacation every other week to.
I think I remember you live in north Caralina.
There are people who do this that work that far on a 14 and 14 schedule.
Its exactly like the 7 day I mentioned above except its 14.
This makes it easier for people like you with long drives.
Now you have to decide. Do you want the easy money at 65k or do you want to take on the hard job for 100k?
The good part about the hard job is if you prove yourself over a 4 or 5 year period the job gets easy and the pay goes up even more.
If you take the easy job for 65k 10 years from now you might be lucky if you are making 75k.
Lots of things to weigh.
PM me if interested

I completely get what you are saying. I worked in sales in several capacities, and it was difficult to try to do what's right all the time, and still make a living. I would worry that they could buy the same policy elsewhere but for cheaper. But hypermorality never got anyone anywhere, so I quit thinking like that. I could never have sold cars at one time, but I could now. People make their own decisions, and if two parties agree on a transaction, there is no reason to worry about anything more than that. I also believe that most people can't be helped. If they overpay on a car, the small amount of money they could have saved by buying it elsewhere would have just been spent on meaningless shit anyway. I don't think I could go sell timeshares, lol, but cars, insurance, no problem.
