The Art of Neeting

Neets in China are paying a small fee to companies to pretend having a job and be left alone by their boomer parents. They just enter the buildind to chill out and play vidya while pretending to "work" in nothing

That doesn't sound very Chinese at all.
Hard to believe, and hard to believe it would even be allowed.
seems fake

to chill out and play vidya while pretending to "work" in nothing

china is 3rd world. I do the exact same thing and get paid for it

being a NEET doesn’t make any sense in the real world because last time I checked you need to make money to survive so there is something very sus about all these so called NEETS

Yes it does, they play a shit load of video games and xi had to pass laws limiting the amount of time they can play because of it

I literally do this with a fancy co working space lol. I mean I do work for myself but I get to larp that I work for some silicon valley company with a sweet office when i have meetings or just want to impress people.

I don't know Patel. I just found that video in yt and i found it funny af

I hate being a NEET. I'm very depressed all the time and full of anxiety and existential dread. I do not understand how other NEETs are happy about their situation. It wasn't even fun when I was younger. I hated it then, too, and the more years that go by the worse I feel because when my dad dies I am truly fucked. I have no idea what to do. It's terrible and I hate seeing threads on Anon Babble glorifying this hellish existence.

Please stop this. It's not good. It's horrific. Even if my dad lives a long time I could be homeless as an old man. Fuck. The more I type the worse I feel. Just stop encouraging this shit.

Only rich people can afford to do this

Now it makes sense.

Bug man, this is your fellow chink. We know your tricks and your economy is nothing but a fake AI video. Canada has been lost and you chinks are smelling it up. Go fuck yourself back to chink land.

Only rich people can afford to do this

Same with the "lying flat" fad that was reportedly taken over China.

Okay faggot. Good luck getting a job you aspiring nigger cattle tax golem. I worked a few jobs to "escape" the NEET life and found out firsthand how fucking miserable waging really is. Never going back, cocksucker.

you need to make money to survive

Incorrect. You need to get money to survive. Whether you make it or it's given to you is irrelevant.
t. technically no longer a NEET because I went back to school

Maybe you should get a life

Are you rich or are you expecting an inheritance from your family?

eat scraps

get hand outs

food stamps

claim disability and get same check in the mail for doing jack shit as some suicidal wagie that works fulltime

Man does not live by bread alone. Rather, he lives on every word that comes from the mouth of the Eternal One.

It is a lie that you need money to survive. There is no biological or spiritual function that money fulfills. People who can't look past needing pieces of paper to "survive" are mentally broken.

Just go get a job. The best way to alieve your anxiety is doing the thing you’re worried about. Go work at Target. It sucks but you have camaraderie with the other employees. Try to work at a restaurant or a charity. That shit is easy, you get free food at restaurants and charity work is fucking easy.

You are doomed to either get some sort of neetbux or to entry level blue collar jobs. Those exist, but those are miserable.

Pick your poison, I took the blue colalr jobs.

Fakest country ever. The CCP tried to order businesses to "overhire" since so many bugmen are out of a job.

you a sexpat breh. bogotá medellín or the south?

Are you the anon that speculated on crypto from the expat thread yesterday? If yes, I'm the OP from that thread.

I highly recommend restaurant work. Be a host or a bar tender at a dive bar. It’s fucking easy.

I assume they have parents similar to mine who don't charge me anything for living rent free at home as long as they see their kid being "productive"

yes hello overseas señor that thread degraded to be about SEA

i did explain that bit about germany and why it's mainly unfurnished apartments- it's because only 47% are homeowners. nation of renters basically and they move all their stuff around with them

It's real, the CCP will tell people to list themselves as care givers if they live with their parents.
This is a massive effort by the CCP to hide their unemployment numbers, which they decided to stop showing now that it is critical.

China did this to themselves though, they automated everything they can as a way to flex on the world, but now their people only have the bottom most horrible factory jobs or just begging for hands outs or trying to flee over seas.

I have lived in the same area for many years so I had noticed which businesses had shut down over the years. I wrote down 3 separate businesses (two restaurants and one retail store) and said that I had worked at each one for 1-3 years. Temp agency had no way of verifying this since they weren't in business anymore.

Also if you get into warehousing, do anything except Amazon. Amazon warehouses fucking suck cock. Do FedEx (pays the best), or a Walmart/Costco DC, or any retail distribution center (Kohl's, TJ Maxx, etc).

Yeah, that thread went off the rails with SEA hate and weird ethno rivalries between the locals.

i did explain that bit about germany and why it's mainly unfurnished apartments- it's because only 47% are homeowners. nation of renters basically and they move all their stuff around with them

Makes sense. Surprised there's so many renters in Germany tbqh.

For what it's worth, I'm still very much considering expating when my dad dies. I'm at the end of my rope with all of this. I need a change of scenery and if you remember I'll have a small pension (~$2,700 if dad were to die tomorrow and a bit more if he works until his projected retirement date in 2030), some insurance money, and whatever I can get for selling the house and everything in it. Even after considering all the downsides (and there are plenty) it still looks to be a better long term solution for someone in my fucked up situation. Even if I only make it to 60 in some kind of comfort that's better than 70 in misery here. I'm just really tired, anon.

That's brilliant, anon. I would be happy to work in a warehouse. Just having some money, however little, coming in to save would make me happy.

You're not wrong, but it's been my experience that the Lord often answers prayers for provision in the form of cash.
I'm in my 40s and I am in seminary, i.e., Christian religious studies. You are not too old to make a difference.

it depends on your resourcefulness and where you live. my gfs family stayed in the poor neighborhoods in one of the biggest cities and they paid 600.000 pesos for rent. her, 4 siblings and mom. this did not include any utilities or internet

keep in mind the minimum wage there is 1.400.000 pesos - like less than $400 us / month

people have it rough there. for me as an expat i like to spend ~$1800 / month not including rent

I'm in my 40s and I am in seminary, i.e., Christian religious studies. You are not too old to make a difference.

How did you get into seminary in your 40s? Isn't that a six year program?

What's your rent?

i hear ya breh. good that you're looking into grinding and doing what you can. that money should be fine.

my only advice is to learn some additional languages. if you have a community center or college nearby- or even just self learning it'll make it so much easier when you do decide to go somewhere

grim....

Whatever.. i don't pay rent since my family owns the house and they allow me to live and eat here for free. So basically i save 100% of my salary and it lasts a decent amount of time if i use it carefully.

If one day my family goes away i guess i will have to decide if getting a full time job or kill myself. I am more inclined to kill myself to be hosnest.

i hear ya breh. good that you're looking into grinding and doing what you can. that money should be fine.

I'm trying to do whatever I can. Even if it's a small amount of money I make, it's better than nothing obviously.

my only advice is to learn some additional languages

Agreed. I know a bit of French and Spanish but nowhere near fluency. I'm working on both, though, everyday.

How did you get into seminary in your 40s?

By God's grace and lots of long talks with the rector of our church.

Isn't that a six year program?

Not for Protestants.

Congratulations, anon. May I ask what your working history was like before you went to seminary? Were you raised in that church?

is unaware of the infamous Chinese reputation for cheating games and cheating systems

No. I'm not. I am a spic from a unknown quiet town in the interior of this country. I am still virgin actually.

I see you don't live in a city, that's actually a plus when it comes to warehouses. Many of them are in rural-ish/exurb areas. Warehouses in the city tend to be a bit....diverse.

Are those homeless people?

They lie about "anxiety." They say they are disabled because of anxiety.

Apologies, Anon, I don't wish to be rude, but if I were to go on answering your questions I might inadvertently reveal enough information to doxx myself.

I completely understand. Good luck with your late vocation, anon. I wish you and your future congregation all the best. God bless.

Thank you, brother. The Lord bless thee, and keep thee; the Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee; the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

There's a lot of ways to get money without a job. Sometimes I think wagies are just creatively bankrupt.

I think retail really depends on who your employer and manager/supervisor is.
The thrift store job I just recently got isn't bad at all really.
The worst parts of it is that it's a bit boring/repetitive but most min wagie jobs are like that, fast food would be the same only there's closer supervision and more intense pressure and need to be productive constantly.
Also the customer's aren't annoying/terrible so far but maybe that's more rare in America (especially the more ethnic parts) I've only had a couple slightly awkward interactions with boomers who were trying to conversate with ne but they weren't complaining or anything.
That being said if I worked at Wal-Mart perhaps I'd be saying something different.

This is for working overseas and getting permanent residency, its basically what Indians do, they fake your resume and education and when they get into you country they just apply for university or tertiary education and work a factory job.

This is how they skip the queue to flood your country.

I've worked two retail jobs (a grocery store and Home Depot) and it sucked so fucking much. Grocery store was way worse though, I had some of the worst managers on the planet. It was a really slow store so I'd be bored out of my mind all the time. Home Depot sucked too but I spent a lot of time outside loading shit into customer's vehicles which I actually didn't mind too much. Plus I'd get cash tips for that (was supposed to decline them but fuck that!)

I had a fast food job which actually wasn't that terrible. It was high stress at lunch/dinner rushes but I had cool coworkers. Plus there were a lot of girls working there and they'd flirt with me which was good for my self esteem. Ended up banging two fat girls and a super crazy skinny chick with big tits. Lmao. Managers at that job never really micromanaged me too much, they'd just sit in the office doing nothing. I couldn't imagine working at Walmart, I'd go postal after a week. A friend of mine used to work there as a stocker and he said that hard workers ended up picking up the lazy worker's slack.

What do you do now and how did you go from retail to whatever it is you do now?

Just fake your resume and put in warehouse work, manual handling, pick and packer, say you worked at least 2-4 years for those jobs, just 2 jobs as reference.

Put your friend or someone you know as reference and tell him to make shit up if they call.

They rarely call or check your shit unless you're doing an office job, otherwise get what ever requirements you need to work in a construction job doing demolition, concreting, construction cleaning, ask a mexican to help you get your foot in. Once you've done it for a few years go find a better job.

If you wanna work warehouse, they will mostly hire people with a forklift licence but you can still get in if you wanna be a pick and packer which is using a headset and talking to a computer to find and pack shit.

They wanna see you know how to work in a fast paced, repetitive environment, able to lift 20KG+ and stand on your feet all day, understand manual handling.

If a smelly stinky dumb indian can walk in without knowing english and get these jobs you can too.

the country notorious for producing knock offs, scams, and fraud seems to be unlikely to be committing fraud

Go back to your country chang.

People want to play vidya because society is a shit and it's not worth the effort spent. At least in a video game you can feel like you accomplished something while not accomplishing it. In real life you feel like you're not accomplishing anything while also not accomplishing anything.
Vidya is a net positive in that regard.

If you truly hated it you'd do something to change it.

After those jobs I was a NEET for a few years, then I got back into the workforce and worked construction for a few years, then became a NEET again for 5 years after that (I had saved like 45k while working construction so I lived off of that for a while) then I ran out of money... that's when I went to a temp agency and created the fake resume, they placed me at a warehouse unloading/loading trailers, ended up quitting that job and getting a different warehouse job at a diff company, that was okay for a while. Eventually I got burned out on that and applied for a state grant (6k) to go to CDL school. The state basically paid for it, I was unemployed at this time for like 6 months maybe. Ended up getting a trucking job out of CDL school at a megacarrier (this job fucking sucked!) but I stuck through it for 6 months, went to a diff company that paid a lot better. Good benefits and salary at that company I was making like 85k/year, driving a fuckload of miles every week though. That company ended up firing me after 2 years over some bullshit DOT violation, then I got a job at the company I'm at now, which is an okay company. Way smaller company so it lacks a lot of amenities of the last company like a terminal with showers and laundry. I have over 100k saved up and planning to open a business next summer, that's my goal. I've gotten bored of trucking and I know that I don't want to do this shit forever.

Right I'm not working, but I'm looking for literally any job. Last one was delivering Electric bills on foot, the whole fucking day. I was walking from 15 km to 30 km daily, but my ankle gave up on me and now I cannot walk and I'm constantly limping. I had to quit because they wouldn't give me a rise (which they promised when they hired me), plus the pain on my ankle was unbearable. I lost like 20 kg doing that.

I just want to die honestly, but I cannot, I have a family to sustain. All the money I make goes for my daughter's food and diapers...

I'm tired bros, why life is so fucking unfair? We lost everything 5 months ago in a fucking fire, I didn't had any saving as we've always living frugally but never like this. I'm hungry, tired, crying out of desperation when I'm alone, but I see my daughter's smile and how smart she is and reminds me of me, when I still got the potential to be something more than... this.

I'm in hell, but I get to see glimpses of happiness and I'm clinching to it with all the strength I have left on me... And I cannot stop thinking that this is all my fault, and my suffering is just the consequences of my actions.

I don't even have friends to talk about this. So, here I am, venting this shit only to be told to fuck off and do a flip probably.

huge corporate tower, tons of empty offices

give a lazy NEET nepo baby the keys to an office

on paper they're an employee, but they're actually a tenant

Sounds doable

You chose to have sex and start a family. I chose not to. I chose to watch where I step when walking. You chose to be careless and sprained your ankle. We each live out the consequences of our life choices.

Working is worse than NEETing as an autist. I've done both (pic related). I was a NEET for a few years trying to get my foot in the door somewhere as a coooder.

If I didn't need the money I'd take up that Chinese company's offer and chill there eight hours a day. I'd rather spend my time with NEETs than the fake nice backstabbing cunts in most corporations.

Please stop this. It's not good. It's horrific.

If you can volunteer a few hours a week somewhere like the local church, I would start with that. If you can find something that doesn't involve a lot of stress or unpaid overtime then do that. The best job I've ever had was tutoring high school math.

Yeah, I know.

(not University of Phoenix or whatever scam)

What do i mean? Is that one of those McUniversities?

If you can volunteer a few hours a week somewhere like the local church

That's not a bad idea. I would like to help people but I also need money. Maybe volunteering would lead to a job? There's a homeless shelter in the city nearest me that needs volunteers.

Yes.

I'm so sorry, anon. I'm thankful I do not have children. I could not imagine how much you worry about your daughter. Fuck. Good luck, fren. I hope it all works out for you, anon. I really, genuinely do.

I see. Because i was in one of those for 2 years till i quit. We call them "Garage Universities" over here but i didn't know they existed as well in other countries. I still regret wasting part of my money on that shit.

Im considering this.
Fucking hate my dog shit factory job.
My girlfriend left me so I have no reason to wagecuck anymore.
Honestly it's a relief because I wanted to quit so badly.
I hope she finds someone better because I can't even be betabux.
I make 50k a year at 31.
Still live with mommy.
Might as well just go NEET like what's the fucking point when I'll never afford a house anyway?
There's unironically no reason to wagecuck if you can avoid it.
My creative soul is dead and if NEETing and better sleep doesn't restore it I might just kill myself.
The only reason I don't quit is the shame of explaining it to my parents.

Thanks anon. You can overcome this too. Prepare your mind too, people are insufferable in blue collar jobs, you need to have thick skin. Good luck fren...

Im trying to get my neet bucks. Working in the modern world doesnt work anymore

That doesn't sound very Chinese at all.

Yes it does. The ruling oligarchy of China are bums that get paid billions to do nothing and look busy all day, parasites. Same shit, different day.

In some ways the average modern wagie is getting a worse deal than most medieval peasants.

Maybe volunteering would lead to a job?

It can happen. I volunteered as a tutor somewhere and eventually found a paid part-time tutoring position somewhere else.

There's a homeless shelter in the city nearest me that needs volunteers.

Your city could have a website with volunteering opportunities. It's worth having a look around.
volunteernewyork.org/

i am chinese and i believe it. i wouldn't say it is the norm, it is just that with 1 billion + people you would kind of just expect everything.. just another bizarro story.
