What u mean spend time with young people ? Like playing video games n shyt?

Yes.
One of my old bosses is a 38 year old divorcee making $14 an hour
and is content playing Xbox Live on his days off and spend his time
with young people at his job.


To him, his current job is his dream job.

:yeshrug:

If people enjoy their jobs, I see no reason to disparage them, however
if you're complaining about it and aren't making the moves to improve then..
well that's a different discussion .

I see help desk saying you need 5 years experience.

Theres no jobs where u can learn anymore.

After the 08 crash, a lot of "entry level" jobs stopped being learning jobs though.

What used to be 3 jobs became one so college grads were SOL cause business held all the cards in hiring and could wait for the exception.

This doesn't include career fields which require educational and work minimums.

You have to be supervising someone or managing something.

And NEVER stay at a job more than 3 years if you haven't been promoted at least once. Otherwise, hiring managers will look at you :mjpls:

I've been literally trying to push some of my employees to leave for the past year. It's sad to see someone who is in their mid 30's making $11 an hour with no career path or aspirations while working at the same job for 8 years :mindblown:

Unfortunately people Get complacent

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Most jobs, especially in lower pay scales, age like milk. A job that pays $11/hr today will probably be worth less after inflation or replaced by automation in 10 years.

I disagree with the OP that you have to manage to get ahead though, that is how they trap nikkas. People don't realize for the most part management = babysitting. :scust: @ relying on other people doing their jobs to do yours :camby: I love the IC life.

But I agree that you have to keep moving and hustling.

You do it for the title and experience. But again, it all depends one what you're trying to do. At the end of the day, if you're working for a company, why not try to move up to a position that is recession proof. The higher you go, the more you can network. If you use linkedin, it helps to put the title on your resume.

He worked a job with a lot of young people in it.
:yeshrug:
Don't want to divulge to much but essentially it's the kind of work
environment that employs a lot of teens/young adults.
He enjoyed having young carefree coworkers vs. a more serious work
in environment.

True. Mine asked for 3 years experience, and associates, etc minimum. Had none and got the job, but many of the positions were worded much the same in descriptions.
I guess the bottom line is apply anyway and hope for the best, cause what is on the descriptions is a laundry list that would require higher pay if they really got who they
asked for.

Jump around if needed, but also recognize when you're in a good spot. Don't leave a good situation just for the sake of leaving.

Good balance is to interview for new jobs every now and then just to see what's out there. Of course if the offer is good enough :yeshrug:

I see why dudes leave the coli, shyt gets redundant after a while. I started a entry. level career last year over 40. we all ain't equal breh, some of us trying to get it and won't let negativity get in the way, you and the nikka stuntone post some depressing shyt like nikkas need to off themselves if they ain't at 100k by 35 or married by 35. nikkas posting how if she don't want you by 27 you second choice meats. damn, 80% of America needs to off themselves then for being failures. 40 year old childless dudes need to. off themselves for being single with no kids too smh.

no wonder all the top IT cats left the coli

I got family members in school at 50 or beyond my uncle finished nursing school at 54.

black folks always on some iso Joe type shyt, always on some I'm. better than you shyt. always holding yourselves up to. cac standards while cacs don't even do half the judging to each other we do to us.

sisters have one kid and fear being single for life, nikkas is really on some garbage. old cac women remarrying at 55 smh.

constantly putting each other down, always in a state of panic and fear of not being here, and then wonder how these white or Hispanics folks can slide in and take the sister or brother away from the community with ease.

Realest post. Rep:wow:

Nikka this is the dumbest shyt I read in this thread.

Nothing op stated has anything to do with being black. I don't know how this post got all those daps- getting your career off to a great start young, has nothing to do with interracial marriage.

It's common sense that the younger you start your career the better. Your uncle finished nursing school at 54 -that's great so did a gang of my aunts, uncles, and step mom.

That isn't gonna stop them from advising their children to finish school while they're young- no one wants to be that old nikka making entry level money with a family of 5 to take care of.

Nothing you posted has anything to do being race. It's simple common sense.

If you wanna pawg or whatever they call it, do you. That has nothing to do with advising younger people to take their careers more serious.

Not only are you old, you dumb too- op didn't say anything about being black.

While I agree that OP was on some immature shyt. That older poster is dumb as hell for saying ops opinion is a reflection of the black community and posts on coli are why black people pawg or date outside their race.

That's just fukkin stupid.

I didnt even noticed he wrote that. All I noticed was that he was saying it's bad to shame others who are trying to make the right choices at an older age. I do see it a lot on here that people make it seem like if you didn't know or do the right stuff before 30 you're fukked, when really everyone still has a chance to change for the better.

I think he should of left it at that.
