At least it's there unlike in South Carolina, also I feel like they're going to legalize recreational before South Carolina does anyway (Virgin islands nextdoor already did). Also still better than FL's program
Several months back, when I told my sister that one of the reasons I'm planning on moving out of South Carolina is because where I'm moving to (Puerto Rico) has a medical weed program that I'm eligible for since I have Autism and ADHD, she told me that medical weed was laced with fentanyl.
For me, it would be that I smoke weed
What I'll do is start out with a data entry job as I teach myself programming (I already know a bit of C# but it's rusty) to then get a certification and job in that field, so I can afford to then get my own house. I always wanted a house, with my own garden and above ground swimming pool
International travel for people who hate international travel
I can't afford to move to another country though (neither can most Americans), so I can only move to a state that isn't red. As much as I'll still have to deal with President Trump, at least a non-Republican state would try to mitigate/fight back in ways
I'm planning to move to Puerto Rico, which unlike every other state/territory in the country, its party system does not align with the national one (similar to Quebec in Canada), but more politicians there are nationally affiliated with Democrats than with Republicans, and from what I know, while Trump enjoys support among a chunk of stateside Puerto Ricans much like other Hispanics, Trump isn't very popular there considering he neglected them after Hurricane Maria and tried to sell it, as well as the more recent "island of garbage" shenanigans
So I looked up certifications and they're way too expensive, is there any job that with at least $36k/year or $17.31/hour after taxes that doesn't have such a steep financial barrier to entry?
I decided not to get married too, because I just realized that I prefer living alone
But yeah, Florida is overrated anyway. It's probably going to be under a feet of water in 35 years anyway
What did she do?
As as Southerner, this
It's a bit of both really
Okay, after some research, I found out potatoes don't grow well indoors and growing them indoors ends up being more expensive than just buying potatoes, but I know how to make fries from scratch, so that's still better and cheaper than using oven fries or ordering fast food
I've been wanting to move out of my Mom's house for a while, and I originally wanted to move to Florida, but its, price, over-gentrified/fake/resort feel, overpriced mmj program, and Ron DeSantis turned me off, so I decided that I will try to move to Puerto Rico instead, hopefully by next year
anyway, what do y'all have?
I'm a CD collector, they're definitely underrated
everyone thought they were the funniest person for asking for a whopper at a McDonald’s
is it possible for someone to maybe have done that, not as a prank, but because they were so shitfaced while in the drive thru that they legitimately thought they were at Burger King and/or confused the two?
I'll probably get another kind of tech related remote job. More likely I'll just start to hate video games rather than actually enjoy work anyway
So why other tech and not gaming? Do indie gaming companies not hire remote?
you made this a top level reply by mistake
Is video game testing anything like it's portrayed in the movie Grandma's Boy?
I have no idea why Microsoft always attempts to implement the next "big new tech thing" in Windows for every version, just for them to always inevitably reverse course after it flops as they repeat it again
I finish my last class for my associates degree in December. I'm trying to move out of my mom's house in South Carolina and to Puerto Rico next year, so I will have to get full time work. Right now I'm working at a chain restaurant part time in dish/kitchen.
After my class ends, I will probably go back to the Amazon fulfillment center in Charlotte I briefly worked at previously for the next 6 months or so, hopefully they'll hire me again even though I quit after a month working there last time because it was stressful. My part time restaurant job was a nice change of pace for the time so I could finally focus on finishing school, but I got tired of the dish pit after 2 years of working there, and I'm barely scraping by, especially with the shit spending habits I made due to stress. Despite the stressful 10 graveyard shifts with heavy lifting and long commutes, I think I can pummel through with enough caffeine and nicotine for 6 months or so (and thankfully they have an okay PTO policy) as I save enough money or so I can hopefully survive the first month or two on savings, but i will need to look for another full time job immediately.
As for my previous work experiences, I was working at factories and warehouses since 18, and for the first several years I got fired from jobs after a few weeks-months, partially due to acting up on concerta, but the rampant discrimination against us sure doesn't help. I got off concerta at age 21 and was finally able to keep a factory job for over a year, but I quit after they switched from 8 to 12 hours shifts, so I then worked at Amazon for a month before starting my current job a little over 2 years ago.
So what kinds of jobs can I get that are either remote jobs I can use my associates for or get an easy certification, jobs where being a native English speaker in Puerto Rico as I still try to get myself immersed and learn Spanish, or can maybe use my warehouse/factory or restaurant experience in, which can make enough to afford a 1 bedroom or studio apartment and car payments, and can maybe help me save up for a house eventually, as well as a shipping container to ship my video game collection and TVs over there? I know I will have to start living a lot more frugally. I have to eat out very infrequently, as well as a halt on collecting video games and movies for a bit (thank fuck for piracy), among other things as I live on my own for the first time, but I learned as I live my life that I can't stand living with other people, and I really want to get away from my MAGA parents and State as well
Being interested in CRT TVs, that's intresting to know
I'm going to start making my fries from potatoes that I will grow inside, although part of that is also just to save money on groceries
I think the best example is the PlayStation 2 being discontinued in 2013, as well the PlayStation 1 in 2006
Did you become religious again or just a less annoying atheist?
Mine was probably when I relapsed towards religion at age 15-16 and joined my mom's conservative megachurch, naïvely thinking I can convince them to be less bigoted and more "christ-like" as well as accept science
