This pretty much sums it up for me to a T.
This is why I despise call center work.
Do you sometimes feel like a sucker doing 9-5?

Sorry
That's the dumbest shyt I ever heard.
No it doesn't.
Do you know how many nikkas I know who work regular IT jobs while consulting remotely?
There are plenty of people who are working regular jobs while conducting business on the side that generates more income than their actual job- some only work it because of employee benefits other work there for industry knowledge and to network.
Lol I literally know people who are millionaires from their own consulting but still are employees for a 250k salary at E&Y, PWC, deloitte .
Lol you think Directors, execs and chairman's at Goldman Sachs are only employed at Goldman Sachs without having their own private investments? Alot of the Knowledge and connections they gained is because they were/are employed as an insider.

Geeze breh, March? That's a long turn around. And yes I've heard that about Norfolk/VA Beach, matter of fact my boss and one of my coworkers are from that are(they're both black women).
Is it real country out there?
I mean the job is definitely ideal, for now, but my true love is writing, I finished a book back In January, but still working on the edits, and whatnot so that I can get it published before the summer is up. But that's my dream. That's why I'm doing it on the side. And no I don't travel at all actually. That's not to say I won't in the future, because we do have conferences and tradeshows, but for my current position I'm not required to.
But there are certainly perks. Like I said we get free lunch everyday. This is what we had today, a sushi bento box.
Really great. I do love my job and my coworkers for sure, it's great having a black boss and black coworkers and working at a mostly asian place, where whites don't dominate shyt. The other perks, are we get cocktails on fridays. The ability to work from home. We get to attend conferences of our choice(they'll pay to send us to different conferences out of state), they pay for classes, after you've been here for a year. Great 401k, etc.
But, I still would love to do my own thing, which is writing. But yes I love the company. I've been working here since January.

Thank you breh!
No doubt and that's cool you considering teaching at a local community college, tbh, when I went back to school, I started at a community college and if it wasn't for some cool ass professors, I would have probably dropped out again, sometimes just a little positivity and having someone that looks like us, educate us, goes so far.

What do you do again?
And I would need two of those sushi boxes cuz a nikka be hungry.
I'm in marketing communication. Most of what I do is writing though internally. Articles, Press Releases, etc. I am all things communication breh. It's a nice set up, tbh.
Is that your CBD company(I saw the link)? I need something to help me sleep. What would you reccommend?
It is not! lol I buy for family members and people I know locally, that aren't "tech savvy" so I cop it for them and it helps, plus down here (FL) theres all these bootleg CBD stores and products you'll find at the local stores, I saw threads on here about CBD and that site (CBDDistillery) is legit (it's a referral discount link), I have been looking for a black/brown CBD company to cop from, but to no avail.
If you never fukked with CBD before, try a lower dosage, Full Spectrum CBD Tincture | Buy 500mg 30ml CBD Tincture | CBD Oil
and see how you feel, I mentioned this to everyone some people can feel it/enjoy it, and others just simply don't lol.
I do work for an online retailer at the moment, so I do want to start my own "online business" at some point, just need some time, got other shyt I need to take care of/priorities personally.
i just finished college for software engineering and im at the point where i have to find a job
honestly i do feel like a sucker applying for these entry level positions with shytty pay
especially because i know how much value i bring
the difference in $$$ between an average salary and someone who gets lucky with a successful app or website is ridiculous
makes me want to say fukk it let me try my own shyt for a few years

Okay. so I've taken CBD before. But don't judge me--I've taken one that was meant for dogs, but could be taken by humans. My sister bought it for her dog, but never used it, so she gave it to me. I felt like I had to take a lot of it just to go to sleep. I want one stronger, because that tincture is expensive. My sisters was like $80. It was a hemp brand. And It was a pretty high dosage, sadly. I have extreme insomnia. What would you recommend in that case?
most black men use 9 to 5 as a stepping stone to being their own boss. you have to have aspirations.Working your ass off barely making enough whist others involved in crime earn in a week what you do in a year?
And yes I’m aware that you get a peace of mind but bear in mind that most criminals, especially those those at the top rarely get arrested. Most of them do actually get away with it and get to enjoy their money.
Not gonna lie, I do sometimes think this way but am I built for that life?
