Date: January 27th, 2015 4:29 PM Author: irate wagecucks Depends on the person. I've had this type of job before. It can be cr IF you're aimless, don't have any greater aspirations, and don't mind having unmotivated, unintelligent coworkers and an idiot boss. If you're smart or motivated, you'll probably end up hating it like I did. Also, these jobs are generally very simple and repetitive; they can drive smart people crazy.

Date: January 27th, 2015 4:31 PM Author: indigo violent juggernaut Actually, come to think of it, this was quite literally the job I had just before coming to LS. I totally forgot it fit OP's description.
It actually was super chill, but at that income level you can forget about having any savings or being able to attract a desirable woman. |
