i haven’t been here or in the discord for far too long so just a general how ya doin type thread

it’s like 3 am here rn but just wanted to say why the fuck is it so hard to find a job like how many fucking places do i have to apply at before i become the joker

edit: also is there a mobile app or smth for this place bc the website isn’t too bad but half the reason i’m not here is that i can just click one button on my phone and suddenly i’m on like r/shitliberalssay or something like that so

    There should be a way to add the site to your Home Screen as an app icon but it’ll just work as a shortcut to the site. That’s what I always use.

    Its going alright. Having a lazy morning and doing laundry, playing underrail, and petting my kitty. I'm pretty sure there's some important things im supposed to get to today, but im not in any rush to remember what they were right now.

    Good luck with the job hunt comrade. Any particular type of job you're looking for?

    No app that i know of unfortunately, but im not active in the greater Lemmyverse/discord, so there may be something in the pipe im not aware of.

      yea at this point i’m basically pretending i have nothing to do and just not doing it

      i finished high school in like november so i’m literally looking for anywhere that will take me. i had a job that i literally lasted 2 weeks at bc they rostered me for 9 hours doing kitchen hand work, which was hard enough, and then i had to work 2 hours overtime for each of those shifts. i worked 33 hours in 3 days but handed in my weeks notice after the second lmao

      the app thing is fine honestly, would like to see one at some point but i’m on my pc like constantly nowadays bc it’s not like i have anything else to do

        Ahh, Welcome citizen, to the exciting world of wage work! Please mind the ennui.

        For real though, first entering the job market sucks, my sympathies. You'll find something. Sounds like you've already figured out some of your boundaries, which is a damn good thing, never let a job cheat you or push you too hard.

            Overtime is a Faustian bargain, I've got 10hrs/wk baked into my schedule.

            It makes me hate my job and is slowly eating away at my sleep schedule, but i can afford a car and occasional drugs. About equal on the scale really.

    There's a lemmy app

    I prefer to use an app called "Hermit" that turns websites into single use apps.

        Seems that way unfortunately. Sorry if I mislead, I use android for everything (am poor) so it never occurs to me there's another OS out there.
