I'm 26, have been working full time for two years and already feel as though I'll be stuck in this career forever and have no idea how I could ever leave it, I want to find something else to do because I never chose this line of work, it was just the only job offer I got out of university, and the idea of changing what I'm doing altogether seems insurmountable. Who would hire me? Why? I don't get how I'm supposed to get anything off the ground.
No I don't know what I want to do. How the hell would I, I haven't done it before.
Where on earth are you getting any of this from? Did you reply to the wrong thread or something? Is the image indicative of something I don't understand? Are you okay?
>>12685 Sure, sure, OP is having job troubles and used the first image he saw in his image folder, which just so happened to be a screengrab from a far-right YouTube channel with a handy little link added.
If you don't understand I hope that you now do and I don't have to explain the obvious.
>>12686 Not the person you are replying to but -There are ways of explaining things to people that are less aggressive, when you explain yourself in a hostile manner people are more likely to react hostilely to you, you can fail to convince people not because you are wrong but because peoples gut instinct is to push back against attacks on them.
When people question your statements it isn't just to undermine you. Other people don't have your knowledge base, not because they are ignorant, or stupid, but because their knowledge is in other areas, so when you launch into a rant based on the esoteric knowledge of a YouTube name it leaves the rest of us who aren’t familiar with it wondering what the hell is going on, where as if you explained yourself we might all very well be agreeing with you.
>>12686 It's a screenshot that I made from a speech in the Bundestag that I was linked to. I don't give a shit about your touchiness for 'the far right' or whatever.
Since you've made a point of it though, I will give everyone the opportunity to see it.
>>12683 Well I'm about to see a psychotherapist for severe depression but I don't think that's related to the helplessness of it - I'm still not doing something I want to do and still don't know how to get out of it and into something else. There are practical steps that need to be taken - I don't know what they are in the first place, so my mental state can't block it yet.
I did a STEM BSc, a related management MSc and have been working in manufacturing QA for the last two years.
I just don't know how to change what I'm doing. Let's take finance for example - what do I bring to the table that would make someone want to employ me? I have no idea, I don't know what finance people do, I've never worked in it. IT - I have no IT skills.
I don't really know what everyone else does all day to be honest. I want something kind of project based and variable, which presents different problems and is not so procedural. Granted, workplaces don't often facilitate that, because adam smith and pins.
Pick an industry you might like to work in, find some people who work in that industry (friends and family, Facebook, LinkedIn) and pick their brains. A lot of people are flattered to be asked and are more than happy to give you advice.
>>12687 You're right, it was quite cryptic, but this crap is popping up everywhere and it will poison the entire site in time.
>>12689 It's not "touchiness", it's an awareness of the tactics your ilk use to target and infiltrate websites and communities all over the internet. You have no qualms with lying and misleading because you're more than aware about how unpalatable your views are in mainstream society. And I didn't make a point of anything, you posted the OP, you made the point.
>>12697 Not either of the ones you're arguing with, but lately the far-right crowd have been like the p**dos, where one sniff of acceptance will have them swarming like flies on shit. That discussion is banned here not because it's illegal (merely discussing it certainly isn't), but because of the shitshow that inevitably results from it. Case-in-point ...
A mod is getting angry because he thinks /lab/paedo's tactics have been taken to a new level by the "Alt Right" who are now making apparently genuine threads that are actually just subtle methods to convert us to right-wing thinking, and that once they find their foothold in here they'll be all over us like "flies on shit".
Personally I think he needs to eat 2mg of Risperdal and sit in a darkened room with no internet for a bit.
