How's everyone doing?
| Surprisingly okay rn. I don't doubt that it'll get worse later on, but a good start is a good star nonetheless.
| Not great. A power outage interrupted my D&D session so I'm slightly miffed right now.
| Bored as hell due to corona. I can't even see most of my riends rn for they are all a risk group of some kind
| It's alright.
| Stressed, I hate work but I hate being unemployed too, I couldn't complete my workout at the gym yesterday and my motorcycle's light is stopping working and overall It looks like I Can't really get nowhere in life since I'm still stuck in my little hometown, so I don't really see any "life os my dreams" coming
Ps: I'm just 17 so maybe I'm being too dramatic

You expect too much from yourself, you are only 17. Slow down, no need to set the bar that high already. One thing after another, then the bar won't be that high in the future too because you already did a thing or two.
| Today, everytime i solved a bug in my code, another one appeared. Spent the entire day like this, but there's been progress, so I'm mostly fine
| I was doing terrible until I ate a few mgs worth of edibles, then I became somewhat less terrible, just like every other day this year
| Doing fine, I guess.
Think I crashed or burned out.
| >>720522 well yes, what defines a good or bad day is the bugs solved and bugs found ratio
>>720567 java, it's always java the most troubling

I'm 17 as well and in the same situation as you homie. Unemployed, but I fucking hate it, but it's also really fucking hard to find any work that I can bear doing. I also hate my little hometown and wanna get the fuck out as soon as I can.
Still though, you gotta stay optimistic. Look for opportunities and shit that might sound out of your league but in reality aren't.
For example, I'm looking to move country when I'm 18-19. Might sound risky or far out, but why not?
| >>720652 Wow, that's cool, maybe I don't have the guts, I can't really get out of my country without lots of money, my only wish is to find a job where I can just do some peaceful work, doing something I like, but I think it's impossible as jobs aren't the same as hobbies
| >>720654
No, it's not impossible. It's your mindset that's tripping you up.
I need a fair amount of money to get out of my country as well. That's why I'm currently looking for an okay part-time job I can do so I can save up while not killing my mental health completely.
I also have a friend in the country I'll be moving to, so I will be living with him which cuts rent.
You just gotta put your mind to it, you know? If you don't see any good ways then look harder or make them.
| Also, jobs that you enjoy aren't an impossibility. Of course a job is a job, but you should look harder and maybe try getting to know yourself a little better.
For example, I always thought I was going to work some sort of IT, but then I figured out that I really like social interaction (despite my autism and nerdy hobbies) and helping people, so now I'm looking for something more along the lines of being some sort of social worker or teacher/teacher assistant.
So don't give up.
| How are you guys 17 and unemployed? Go to highschool? School and university is so much better than working!
| >>720695
School is the reason I had to be sent to a mental institution. Twice. So no thank you. The school system isn't for everyone. The ones it works for, great! The ones it doesn't work for, well, they just end up with extra mental problems and get absolutely nothing out of it. Not everyone's the same.
There's also money. Some places it can cost a lot of money to go to school, and not everyone can afford that.
| >>7065a8 well, I actually fit in the school system but I couldn't afford a private university in my third world country (Brazil) and apparently I was too lazy/dumb to get a scholarship
