i am mid 20s, been poor my entire life, starting to not be able to afford food. how can i lie on my resume so i can get a high paying job and move out? i only make 200 dollars a week. this is bullshit. i've applied to jobs everywhere but no one hires me and i am tired of it. how do i make a fake resume so I can get a real job so i can actually be an adult? i hate when people whine online about their dumbass normie rich people problems. i live with a retired old lady and im poor as fuck with bugs in my house and i am hungry every night. fuck you
LULZ / Misc
Like i can't even earn 15$ an hour, there are people in highschool earning 15$. everyone wants to pay me nothing. the only jobs that hire me are restaurants
I was going to type out a thoughtful reply, until I noticed pic related.
i'm trying bro, i apply everywhere but this town sucks or hr is racist or something.
>Dropping the victim card
This is why you are poor. Take responsibility for your shortcomings. It’s the first step towards fixing them.
>poor people are poor because they want it
fuck off
No, poor people are often poor because they often have poor judgment, make poor decisions, lack self-awareness, and take no personal responsibility. Sure, luck is a factor in life but if you weren’t born mentally or physically incapable, then find a way.
I grew up poor because my dad got sick and couldn’t work. I am not rich, but do okay making $250K a year. I ate shit for years to get here. Joined the army, served in combat, came home with some leadership experience, moved across the country with no money to start the only entry level job that would take me, grinded harder than most people I know who were too busy fucking off, shitting out kids with dead beats, being lazy, drinking, doing drugs, and not practicing self-discipline. Either that or they were too cowardly to take any risks.
This certainly doesn’t describe everyone who is poor and if it doesn’t describe you then you have a chance of getting out. I just wish I had the other ingredients needed to create true generational wealth. As it stands, I’ll probably be a generation or two early if I am lucky.
Do you live in a country with food banks? Theyre free and they don't ask questions.
I think you should move (maybe live in your car) to a city with a warehouse, amazon will definitely hire you, and collect money for 1 month. Then you can get a rooming situation and continue to build money.
That or poor your all into a business of your own.
Do you have any interests? Music, computer science, engineering, illustrations, acting?
Do you have any hobbies?
Forget the money for a second. Say you could get paid well enough to live comfortably without worrying about food, or car troubles, or anything. And let's say you could pursue any career you wanted to do to earn it. Something you would either enjoy, or at the very least, find interesting. What would you want to do?
Don't say something like "XYZ, because they get paid millions." The point of the question is what you want to do, not how much it pays. You don't even have to be good at it right now. What's something you wish you were good at, because you would enjoy it/find it interesting?
i already know what i like i just cant afford to go to college to do it yet.
what am i supposed to do other than apply? i call them, i walk in the building, they just tell me apply online. i've applied to over 1000 jobs. i'm not a victim n-word
What do you like?
Not your problem. I’m trans btw.
food/hospitality/hotels/culinary, spa/fashion/wellness/beauty/relaxation market, business/finance/money, japanese cars, wintersport, architecture/home design/interior, psychology, writing/communications.
i am going to college for either psychology or business finance minoring in hospitality, but i cant afford to go 🙂
i just want to know how people make 15$ + an hour because for some reason i am bottlenecked out of it. i guess it must just be my resume being auto denied by ai. i need some kind of fake resume to get a job.
Woah, there.
I'm glad you're so open minded about your career interests, but I think you gotta narrow your focus a bit.
Let me ask you this:
What is the thing that you do the best, with the least amount of effort?
By "the best" I mean perform well at.
kinetic movements like sports and martial arts, music, analyzation of patterns and behavior, understanding of big concepts and abstract thinking, research/digging for information/investigation/detecting, driving, cooking, interior decorating, speaking/writing/language, being friendly with people. thats probably all the things i am actually naturally good at
okay i'll try i guess. need to figure out how i can make 10$ from my sports gift
>I'll try I guess.
If you're not going to get serious, you're not going to get paid. Do something as if you aren't scared to lose for once.
A life of poverty and misfortune can make you careful. A life of wealth and security can make you careless. Wealthy people are literally fortunate enough to be able to take more risks without the fear of losing it all. That allows them to discover new things about themselves. It allows them to fail more times, and learn more lessons, than someone that's poor.
You're going to have to be prepared to risk it all if you want to get it all. Go for broke, man. If you go into it full-on, dead serious, ready to do whatever it takes to get there, then there isn't a person in your life that can fault you for your failure.
If you aren't prepared to block out the noise, focus on one thing, and run the marathon 'til your legs give out, then stay in your prison, man. There's nothing out there for people that don't want it badly enough.
This sounds like some advice for becoming rich. If OP just wants to be middle class all he needs to do is emulate a middle class person and snag one of their women and their jobs, both of which are easy to get so long as you aren't a doodoobutt manchild.
I mean partly the reason McDonald's pays $7.25hr in US is because people are stupid enough to work for that. And yeah some people are driven by desperation but a lot are just foolish. I was that stupid kid when I was younger, deprived and willing to accept shit on a platter if it had some garnish.
and what career would you give them for that, that isnt in stem?
Fucking anything that is middle class will solve the problem of being poor. In every sector there are what I'll call tiers. For example some customer service people make $50,000 or even $90,000 annual salary while others are paid minimum wage hourly. You need to be a middle class person or pretend to be one, like getting your bedbugs exterminated and lose the chip on your shoulder.
When it comes to not getting interviews you must view this as a hitch or flaw in your method and not a rejection of you as a person. But yeah the fact you're working at Walmart or what have you instead of acquiring skills and credentials our economy needs is kind of a problem. Poor people are like the Walton's best friends whether they realize it or not. We're siloed into behaving like cattle by a very tiny minority of people. The only one who can break us out is us.
yes, i simply want to get something middle class so i can use the money. i dont care about being middle class, i just want to be rich, but you have to be middle class first unless you luck out somehow. i dont know how you could skip economic tiers like that.
>You need to be a middle class person or pretend to be one
You watch too many movies. Those success stories where people pretend to know about a subject to get a job, and then study hard behind the scenes to act like they knew the whole time, and then ending up wealthy are FAR and FEW between.
It's not advice for becoming rich. It's advice for achieving what you want out of life. I'm basically saying that life is very punishing to people that don't have the endurance to persevere. If you can't handle what it's going to take to live comfortably (not even rich, just comfortable), then you're going to get filtered out.
That's the simple truth of it.
i just mean how are you meant to make money off of the ability to move your body? i'm trying to imagine a scenario someone would pay me 10$ for something sports related.
yes i did make terrible choices until my 20s but i was taught no other way either. i have had to learn everything myself. im just now recently trying to manifest destiny
poor people are poor because the system in america takes money from everyone but then the benefits dont go back to the poor people. like all the people who go to college that is paid for in tax dollars usually worked less than the poor people who dont go to college. the physical building of the college and the teacher's salaries are paid for in taxes that are mostly poor people's money. many poor people become culturally ingrained into serfdom and think they can never leave and just embrace the ghetto. to get out of poverty you actually have to work less, which means you need some kind of pedigree or something to make you worthy of more money while doing less actual work. the manager with pedigree does less work than the collective employees but makes 2x the money. the owner of the business may do no work at all but makes 5x more than the manager. but that is his pedigree that he has earned. you also qualify for loans based on income, so poor people cant even borrow the money to stop being poor
I noticed your post talking about how you're disadvantaged, though you may be right, is much larger than what you're actually going to do to get out of the situation. Vagueness like "I will manifest destiny" is like proto improvement. It's not even bona fide improvement. You must fucking take a literal and specific step on the path forward to progress. Not just being a min wage cuck with the bugs.
i am not going to post my entire life plans and personal details on (((LULZ))). i have a plan that will be in the completing stages in 3 months that will hopefully eject me into the middle class immediately. the purpose of this thread is simply how do i make a fake resume so i can get a middle class job as plan b because it's guaranteed
A fake resume is the most promising thing you've said in this thread. Just be sane and normal and you won't be in the bottom ten twenty percent of society anymore. Do more listening than talking ffs.
I mean middle class as in middle income. Like someone who makes at least $50,000 a year in the US. And the reason success stories are few and far between is because people are stupid crabs in a bucket.
>because it's guaranteed
It's guaranteed to be illegal. And, it's a stupid plan.
no, the money from a middle class job if i fake my resume is gauranteed. my plan is legal it's just financial and i dont want to get into it on LULZ. but it is also legal, it's just the us is about to entire a giant depression and that might ruin it before september. but if it works, i wont need a middle class job.
Lying on a resume has worked before but it's also failed badly. Why are you so opposed to doing things in an intelligent, predictable manner?
You have a poor person’s mentality. Your assumptions and logic are based on things you read that are designed to make you resentful and not make you better. Until you change this way of thinking, you will always be poor. The reason this is so hard is because it involves invalidating your entire worldview. It involves you taking responsibility for the things you CAN control. It involves you doing something HARD. Stewing in excuses and being cynical is easy. Don’t do anything different for all I care. You’re the one who has to live with it.
> just mean how are you meant to make money off of the ability to move your body? i'm trying to imagine a scenario someone would pay me 10$ for something sports related.
this is me stating that i am now thinking about ideas where someone might pay me for my number 1 gift of kinetic movement
>yes i did make terrible choices until my 20s but i was taught no other way either. i have had to learn everything myself. im just now recently trying to manifest destiny
me accepting responsibility for my past and committed to changing
>poor people are poor because
literally researched, the entire economy is made of fairy dust dollars that dont exist, and poor people dont receive the majority of the benefits that taxes go to. this is documented fact by collegiate doctor tier economists like tom sowell and milton friedman. i am not blaming america for me being poor i am stating that this is where poor people's mentality that they will always be poor comes from, because theres literal pressure from the us government to do that. i feel like you are just spouting whatever rich people motivation youtube videos you saw and gaslighting me to say i'm doing that.
This is why I said you have to do more listening than talking. There are people in the upper crust who want you working at Walmart and eating at McDonalds so they can grow their grotesque wealth. There are also people in society who care about its overall integrity, many of whom are also rich and/or in government. Being like retarded is not good for the integrity of society. That's why we have a public education system, fucked as it is. Ironically what you're talking about is fairy dust. For example instead of
>I'm interested in becoming a personal trainer
you're saying
>I have to harness my body's number one skill of kinetic movement
It's like your brain is doing everything it can to avoid an intelligent, actionable plan. You must train it to work for you.
i didnt even say anything about becoming a personal trainer, someone asked me what i was good at and i said kinetic movement. that post was talking about driver training as you can see by the post he quoted
this is the first time anyone ever mentioned to me i should use my gift of kinetic movement instead of doing the top 2nd or 3rd gift i have. to that poster i replied "what scenario would someone pay me 10$ for my ability of kinetic movement?" which is to say i am brainstorming.
what in the bloody FUCK are you on about
I might be too many IQ points and sobriety points above you which is a bad sign considering I'm one of these losers who posts here all day. I'm saying you're the one who is on about nonsense going on about "kinetic movement." That is not a job. You could be a skilled laborer. You could work in fitness. These are specific jobs for which you must have some credentials, however minor or easy to acquire they may be. Acquisition of these credentials would require intelligent planning which you are so far demonstrating the total opposite of in this thread. Maybe you would be better in an authoritarian society that just forced you to lay concrete or something and paid you enough to live and reproduce, saving you the trouble of having to use your brain to devise a course of action that isn't a harebrained scheme.
you're fuckin retarded, someone asked me to list what i was good at that's why we even started talking about kinetic movement. nobody is talking to you n-word go away to reddit. ooo big words. you dont even know what my plan is so how can you know it's hairbrained? you're a salty homosexual wagie and you cant read
I'm not OP.
Just want to say that you sound like the type of person that will argue with someone that's agreeing with you.
he is, he's a dumb homosexual who cant even read
while it is subsidized for me i do owe the college some money that i dont have because i already went to college like 4 times and quit when i was younger. it's not a lot of money but i earn money so slow that it's taking forever so i want to learn how i can get an actually decent job so i can get shit moving around here, it's depressing.
>i already went to college like 4 times and quit when i was younger
yes
yes.
Understood. Sounds like you'll have to get a job that doesn't require a university degree. Fortunately there are many. The state may be willing to train you or give you a grant for vocational training. If you're in the US you could go to vocational rehabilitation. They're supposed to assess your abilities and assign you to something. They can give you the grants for training. To get those fuckers to do anything you have to basically nag the everloving shit out of them. They spend most of their day in meetings discussing what their jobs would be like if they were properly staffed and attended to.
And like I said there's jobs such as driver or personal trainer that don't pay super well but they pay better than poverty. Any improvement on hunger and bugs sounds welcome in my book. People with low income survive by sticking together. Low income is a significant step above poverty. I think the old lady will love you very much if you can band together and pay for removal of the bugs. And who knows if you get your stuff together you may have a woman some day who will likely have a job and help with expenses, or a housemate of some kind.
yea i can try the state. i live in one of the poorest states, the government here is almost nonexistent in your life. the local police dont even stop street racing and speeding or punish minor marijuana crimes even though it's illegal here. i like that the government leaves me alone and i have low taxes, but one time i applied for a job at the park paying 8 dollars an hour and it took them 4 months to reply. thats how slow and shitty and poor they are. but i'll try anyway, i havent tried harassing the government yet. maybe i can get a meter reader or garbage job or something
At poverty level you're not supposed to be getting taxed much. And most income tax is federal if I'm not mistaken. The largest government expenditure is Social Security.
yea the tax rate is lower, i am just saying the collective pool of taxes, that money goes to universities, roads, buildings, police etc that actual poor people take less part of
I think that's supposed to be funded by property tax and levies on business and stuff like that. I'm not an economist. So yeah if fuckall is happening economically in your locale then there won't be much tax money rolling in. Moving could be good for you. But so far everything I've suggested is funded by the federal government. The federal government gives so much money to states to do things. Your state probably does something important like chemical engineering or farming.
And federal governments gives money to states for road maintenance and such. I mean if we had to depend on our immediate neighbors to keep the lights on we'd be fucked. They're too busy drinking light beer and getting stoned.
yes i'll slurp up the grants. not many jobs for my city though, we'll see what happens governmentsan
>he is, he's a dumb homosexual who cant even read
I'm the only homosexual in here not gawking at you or mocking you. You may need a humbling so you can listen for once in your life instead of fucking everything up.
yea because ur samefagging the thread. no one cares big boys are talking
>big boys are talking
You mean you are acting like a retard and people are posting reaction images to how scuffed your decision making is.
I don’t watch motivational YouTube videos, I literally went from being poor to upper middle class (making $250K a year) myself and am relaying my experiences. What I did wasn’t flashy, I simply worked harder and sacrificed while investing.
I am not trying to insult you, I am trying to get you to open your mind to the fact that while life isn’t fair and the deck may be stacked against you, people still win the game all the time nonetheless. What you need to be trying to figure out is how. Your mindset is key.
yes i agree, i know i can win. i just dont know how to win when getting hired for a middle class job, and i want a fake resume. i can get hired for minimum wage jobs all day and grind like i am doing now
i'm not, but to make 30 dollars an hour i need college, for college i need money, and without the middle class job it will take me longer, which wastes my time and angers me. there are teenagers making more wage than me sometimes, something is wrong with my job getting tactics. i come to advice to find out how people make 15+ an hour so i can also do it
Why not join the reserves for the GI Bill? It will pay for your college.
because i dont want to take the vaccine and die. i would have joined the army already years ago if they didnt do all that gay shit. good idea though
College is entirely or almost entirely subsidized for the poor in the US so long as you take two years at community and two years at state uni. If you further your education from there you will be able to get more funds. But honestly you're not coming off as someone in need of a PhD. You're coming off as someone in need of like employment direction. Sadly "direction in life" is not an easily purchased commodity. Like it would be easier to get you heart surgery. So many things have gone tits up in your life due to your patents, yourself, and yes failings of the government.
i am serious reddit spacer. i am not careful, i've tried killing myself before and i used to do a lot of reckless things, i didnt give a fuck about shit. people have died in front of me, i'm not soft. i have just been running in circles not knowing who i am or where i want to go until maybe one year ago. i am not risk averse, i just dont know where the risk is for me to go take. i wouldnt blindly take a risk i would try to strategize how to win. i do have one scheme i am working on that would raise enough money to get a clean house, pay for college and a car. i just wish i had some nonrisky plan b like a job that paid me
fuck that shit, i want to be rich later. i already decided that. i hate the middle class. i want to do something where i am completely free and i can have whatever i want, just based on doing the thing i am good at or by some smart financial planning. i already know i want my own business using my gift, or my own financial investments that give me rich level freedom. i already made plans to get better at using my gift but i wasnt using the number 1 gift like the other anon said. i was playing it safer
Currently sounds like you're doing more vague thoughts about success than planning anything. It sounds like some self help bullshit has infected your brain. Just get a job that pays decent and invest the money well but conservatively. It's not voodoo.
the point of the thread was how do i make a resume to get that job. yes i have come to t he conclusion that i need a job that pays decent. i cannot get hired even though i applied
Get a Udemy course. They have "sales" on so many courses so often that I often wonder if there are any courses that are full price. You can learn a skill, or more about a subject for anywhere between $12-$20.
You're not getting out of your shit job tomorrow. So spend this time learning something new. You only make $200 a week, so I know you have SOME free time to devote to learning.
Commit time to a Udemy course. You aren't held to a schedule, and you can complete it as slow or fast as you like. We're talking about $20 here. Anyone that says it's a dumb idea either doesn't have the fortitude to finish a course like that, or doesn't believe you do.
And honestly, if you don't have the fortitude to finish a course, or aren't willing to give it a try, then you definitely don't have the stones to apply any worthwhile suggestions. What I'm suggesting here is pretty much the bare minimum.
i have considered doing this, or starting a side gig like selling fish/ cutting grass once i started this job. thank you for the idea i will probably do the course instead because you voted on it. first actually useful post
the single thing i do very best is probably sports and kinetic movement
the second best thing i do very best would be analyzation. the third best would be driving
you can get a job as a trainer or a driver and be low income but not poor. living with the old lady you may be able to invest lotsa money and kill the bugs. otherwise go the fuck to school, maybe something career or vocational but college isn't off the table.
The anon you rebutted didn't say anything about wanting to be poor. He said you're making choices that perpetuate poverty. Try some better choices, like the ones I mentioned. If you can't problem solve and delay gratification then it's gonna be hard to succeed.
