Sounds funny today, but in a few years Deep Fakes could be good enough for streaming. Will make for some absolutely golden practical jokes, always wanted to call you up as your mom, nursing a dildo

My 19- year olds each have a job, and are getting hired for a second job. It's grocery/restaurant/retail work, but it pays the rent
Might be your area overall is downtrodden?
[–] ManchesterT 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
Yeah, this area was disproportionately affected by the drop in travel and tourism.
Based on your advice I'll try again to get a service job. Retail and grocery seem like dead ends (no offense), but if you get good at serving tables, you can climb the ladder to high-end fancy spots and eventually rake in high five figures.
Thanks for the response, honestly

I started as grocery, got into supervision - didn't pay dick, but it gave me the skills to manage large groups of people and have responsibility for a huge operation ($1 million/week in sales in the 90's). I also took on extra projects, and got myself involved in the POS system upgrade, spent two years implementing it, and used that to launch my career as a software implementation consultant. And now., after 10 years fighting through those learning years in the bottom 30%, 20 years later I'm in the top 5%.

Look into car sales. Quick money can be made, and who knows, you might like it.
Edit- I hope everything works for you, brother. You will figure a way. Play the bad hand until you get a better one.

I could try that. I'm good with people. No good with money but if I believe in a product, I can sell it.
I looked into checking out for a while. Unfortunately, I can't find a way around the sixth commandment, or a promise made to a loved one not to give up. So it's try, try harder, and find a way until something comes in
Thank you for being you.

In that case might be time to move and start over. If you're young look into trades. I'm guessing (if s doesn't htf) there will be lots of work. At the worst it's better to know how to weld (or plumb, or wire, or whatever) than to not. If we don't have utilities then you won't have work, and many will die.
