"I'mma shit on this guy because he is, clearly, not having a rough enough time. I'm not gonna offer any empathy, advice, or even just moral support. I'm gonna take this opportunity to shit on him and take a political stand in the Lounge." Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace. --- Dunno man... this feels like one of those times we are called upon to "build up". If you are incapable of that... may I suggest that it is then, instead, a time to keep silence. |

Depending on what he's doing, may find that stable job at Fred Meyer. Seems like it's under Kroger and that's rated as a relatively decent place to work in retail.

You’ll be okay Hy. To make money, (maybe not ALL the money) you can do anything temporarily.
Lots of places need drivers. Investigate Uber. I know dudes who supplement income by that. Hang in there. Also one last thing: **** otter. What a ****ing shitbag of a human. |

From there, again... if you enjoy driving, you can pivot to driving things like cement trucks or chartered busses. I know, for a fact, that charter bus drivers can make ridiculous amounts of money. /thinking out loud in case Fred Meyers doesn't pan out or you hate it... |

I got laid off at the end of June and the best thing I did for myself was join as many local job networking groups as possible. I thought I was a shitty networker but sometimes it’s simple as shaking hands, introducing yourself and exchanging linked in information. These places have volunteers that have connections to hiring managers that can get you in the front of the line for interviews. Plus you meet a lot of great people who can help you fix up your resume for free.
I would’ve gone crazy if I didn’t have my job networking group to go to. So much help and moral support from great people who are in worse situations than I was. I start my new job on Monday and it was so awesome to go back to that group to thank them for all their help and support. Last edited by PunkinDrublic; 08-15-2024 at 02:12 PM.. |

And while the job market is better now, it doesn't mean that things have gotten better for many. Hydrae's situation is one that occurs all too frequently these days....and for no fault of their own. |

I would hate to be the bus driver for a route that only went to High School...I have friends who have been drivers for about 10 years and they hate the HS students. One of my buddies dad lost his job when he was 52.....he had his chauffeurs license and ended up filling in for a friend on a tour bus route. Ended up making it a career until he had to retire at 65. He had great benefits, got to travel to places all over the US and his wife went with him....what a great way to lead up to retirement. (The down side...when he retired all he wanted to do was relax and do anything but travel...LOL) |

Why isn't Uber or Amazon Flex an option? Sorry to sound "matter of factly" but what about Door Dash? You can make at least $15ish/hour Door Dashing or Ubering.
I've made money also renting out a car on Turo. The Internet age has tons of ways to make money nowadays. |
