The AI bubble is popping, it seems, and the shit i was doing for a while earlier this summer has dried up. Honestly, i just need to make a grand a month for rent (not the exact number but i don’t wanna discuss the real amount in public), and my other material needs are met through friends and family, aside from the occasional bill.
I’ve found what seems to be a number of places that hire support agents for large companies, so im gonna get the ball rolling on a few of those tonight - a lot aren’t able to hire in Illinois, so ill do what I can there.
I basically have as much time as needed for whatever is out there. I just really like remote stuff because 1) ive got two dogs, and 2) im a homebody.
And just to get ahead of the question since it’ll probably come up - yes, I’ve gone around the neighborhood in person recently looking for whatever, and can’t even get a call back about being a dishwasher or barista. Shit fuckin sucks out there.
Ayyy i actually just landed an interview for this week, so that’s sick! Should probably still keep on shooting for more gig work just in case tho.
The company that contacted me is actually one we used to work with 2 jobs ago so that bodes well…I hope.
Good luck, Comrade!! I just finished a first-round interview myself.
Wish us both luck.
Congrats and good luck to you as well, my comrade!
Good luck to you, my comrade in arms
That’s weird you posted this I was literally thinking about hitting you up for that job this morning! Glad you got a call back and your interview goes well!
If you still want a referral I can do that! I’m not fired or anything, they just haven’t given me any projects. DM me and we can talk!
Lol I’m still unemployed even after the referral you sent me for said remote gig from beginning of summer. Those jackasses never gave me a single task.
Good luck on the interview!
like same, all i sign up for turns out to be scams
I’d love to find remote work but not sure where to look. If I found something remote that just paid the same as my current job I’d quit and do the remote one instead. Or if I could handle it I’d do both for a while especially if the remote job was part time. I remember you posting about the AI thing some time ago and you referred me, thanks for that! The company never got back to me after I applied however.
