Has anyone here ever worked a job where you didn’t have to pay for living expenses or food like the military or something else?

How much did you leave with?

i was about to start one exactly like this but chinavirus ruined it

>work at McDonalds
>get free uniforms
>never pay for food
>sleep in the lobby
>bathe in the sinks

i worked once where i was stationed in a foreign country for 4 years where apartment + food allotment was provided.
it was the best financial decision i ever made as i saved something like 95% of my salary and wound up being able to purchase a starter home outright on my return to us.

what was it? mining? oil?

Can we all agree that's a man?

Checked and penny-pincher-pilled

How was it living there, both in terms of your daily life but also any social isolation being in a foreign country in the military?

probably not quite what you're looking for but it was going to be working on a camp teaching English and doing random activities.. basically do nothing apart from fuck around and speak English whilst getting fed and living there.. low wage though but seemed worth it to get away from city life and i could save all the wage

Right out of college I got a job as a developer for a friend of mine and we all lived in a huge 7 bedroom house. There were only 7 of us working there so part of our payment was that we got to live there rent-free. We turned the upstairs bonus room into an “office” and that’s just where we hung out all day while we worked. It was really relaxed and we had absolutely zero HR bullshit.

Some part of me wishes I could have been there forever. I made great money for a single 22 year old and had an absolute blast at the same time.

I graduated highschool right as the Iraq war kicked off, and I lived in a poor rural area. So like half of the guys in my class joined the military; that $20k sign on bonus seemed like a million dollars at the the time.

Anyway, pretty much every single one of them blew every dollar they earned on new harleys, new trucks, boats, 4-wheelers and whatever other redneck toys they could think. They left with PTSD and, frequently, alcoholism.

any of them die or maimed?

Yeah, I used to work on trail crews in my early 20’s. It’s based as fuck. Got to hike in some on the most beautiful parts of the country and work on maintaining the trails. Slept in a tent, food was provided, so living expenses are $0. At the end of the summer I’d have a fat paycheck.

how old is your covid gf? mine is 30 and her family disowned her.

army for 7 months
after that i understood i was wasting my life
did not save so much

not military. actually in IT, but was a "3 month contract" that grew and grew.

daily life was comfy. It was in latin america....people were nice, food was cheap, beer and nightlife was good.

HOWEVER, you definitely start to go thru cultural withdrawal. living in a society where everything is "...shrug....who cares" takes its toll after awhile. imagine where 70% of the things of your daily life fuck up weekly (no internet today, no hot water tomorrow, taxi strike next day, etc etc etc) it wears you down...
the biggest fuck ups are that they never actually fix anything....its the equivalent that the hot water heater for your building is broke, but they can restart it so it works again for 4 hours then breaks again...they will never ever ever ever fix it or replace it. they will just pay some idiot $2 per day to restart it every so often...if hes not sleeping or off drunk then you may have hot water all day. this becomes daily life.

I've been in the army for 6 months
I have about 15k usd
My living expenses are 0 so everything I get goes to investments. I never panic sell because I dont need the money for anything. I usually make 3 to 4 trades per week and about 100 bucks per trade, though I only started doing that recently.
Also, people here get assigned to sit at a desk for 24 hours, and they pay me 200 bucks to do it for them. Basically I read a whole book and make 200 bucks doing it about once a week.
I would reccomend this life because even if you make a lot of money from working, you cant have it all in the market because if it goes to shit and your car breaks down or you need rent, you'll have to sell or just leave a safety net in savings. I could lose everything and it wouldn't effect my life one bit, and it's very freeing.

Alsaka fishing, $30,000

1099 tax too btw. Spending an entire summer in absolute misery on a boat in alaska is the prerequisite before getting paid

Quiet eurocuck!!

Lmao are you sheltered?

Sounds like my personal hell

>Be me
>Worked at airbus as satellite engineer
>get sent to the Netherlands for 6 months on test campaign, French Guyana 2 months on launch campaign.
>get 150 euro per day for allowances food and hotel
>sublet student flat for 25 euro per day
>dont go back during weekends every 2 weeks like rest of the team (is the same for company, they dont have to pay flights, but pay me 150 a day)
>Get a 30-50% bonus on normal pay because its 'on mission'
>Have to do lots of overtime with even bigger bonus.
Net 4500 a month to cover expenses (which are less than 1500) + normal wage + bonus + overtime during an 8 month period.

no, just grew up in mainly white areas where things work and not needing to bribe cops during lunchtime.

Orania is 100% white and they go through rougher shit than that.

>Orania
Literally africa

yes, I went to jail. super comfy

Africa and sub saharan africa(negroland) are two different things

You ever see any cryptids?

My industry used to pay us a $55,000/yr tax-free living stipend because it was in remote mountainous areas + company vehicle, insurance + cell phone stipend + good benefits, but the virus made the living stipend go poof. Still pretty comfy without it, but when overtime was available I was netting like $100k/yr of savings after taxes and expenses. Worked my ass off though, 60-70 hr weeks were pretty common.

What's the salary like? Any way to guarantee a desk job? I'm athletic but am way more capable with thinking jobs than otherwise.

That's based. How do you apply. I want to retire early and if I can I'd like to do something liek that part time. Would be like a holiday.
