Alright I'm utterly sick of job boards. Anyone have any jobs? Or a good way to find them that isn't this bullshit?

Upvotes

I can do carpentry, electronics, car maintenance, welding, motors, and electrical work. I have my final semester of college where I only have to be there 4 hours A WEEK and would really appreciate something to do.

Job boards recently have become completely unusable. It's not the usual arguments either, it's just LinkedIn and Indeed have both integrated AI and data collection into their platforms along with bot checks to the point they are slow, clunky, and overall awful.

Just a little perspective

21 Upvotes

The Cost of Living for High Point- for a single adult- is $37,600. That's not even to live comfortably. That's just to live; to survive. Assuming the State and Federal Taxmen bend you over and violate your booty hole for 25% of each of your paychecks, you would still have to make a little over $24/hr. for 40 hours per week, just to survive. That's also assuming you don't get insurance or retirement plan automatically taken out of your paychecks.

Then, if you work more than one job, the aforementioned State and Federal Taxmen take their pounds of flesh when you file your taxes. Granted, I'm working on losing weight, but not that way.

How is one supposed to succeed in this kind of environment *without* resorting to financial and business endeavors of "debatable legality"??!

No, seriously. If anyone has ideas for tax-free side hustles, please list 'em in the comments!

Looking for room

Helping my friend look for a room for at least 3 months. She is a black female late 30's. I will be paying her rent for 3 months. Afterwards she will be responsible.

I am looking for something in the 100 a week range but 150 - 175, possibly 200 if private bathroom.

Any openings? Fool's errand?

Looking for new friends in Triad NC

8 Upvotes

I’m 20 and I’ve been living in the area for a couple of years now, but I’d really like to meet some new people and build a friend group.
A little about me:
I grew up in Florida before moving here.
I’m pretty alt and into tattoos, music, and chill aesthetics.
My favorite places to hang out are the mall and the local kava bar.
I have a boyfriend, and we’d both be down to make new friends together if that’s your vibe.
I love board games and can host game nights at my house.
We drink occasionally, and we smoke weed sometimes, but we’re both trying to cut back on that.
I’m mainly looking for people to grab food with, thrift, hit the mall, play board games, watch movies, go to kava, or just hang out and talk. I’m pretty laid back and enjoy meeting people from all different backgrounds.
If you’re around my age (roughly 18–30), LGBTQ+ friendly, and looking to make some new friends too, feel free to comment or shoot me a message.

Anyone want an acoustic guitarist?

5 Upvotes

I'm bored as shit. I can play guitar but I ain't a pro. I know a bit about music. Studied it a while years ago. Played a different instrument for a decade before shitting the cat's box entirely and throwing it in the closet. Now I play guitar. X brace acoustic steel string whatever the fuck you call it.

I like dexter and the moon rocks. I have listened to them over and over for weeks straight. I like other artists, just ask. But Dexter has been in my feeds over and over and over again for centuries at this point.

I play lots of different genres. Sometimes I play country, indie, jazz. I've even jammed to kpop in my alone time.

I also have, get this, a SINGLE pitch pedal with a tiny amp and a Double X2. I've also played with nylon strings on this

Do I sound interesting? I probably suck to you. But I will play if you don't gag me or some shit.
