Anyone hiring?

Just got a notification from my boss about "taking the week off" and how he's testing someone in my position.

I'm pretty sure I'm fired in 5 days. I won't say anything bad about my boss or the company, genuinely like both, which is why this hits harder than I would like.

Why is it so hard to get a job that sticks?

I'm 31, I have a college vocation in Cabinetmaking, an associates of applied science, and it feels pretty hopeless.

I've done factory work since I was 20, yet I can't seem to get a job that sticks.

I want to say the problem is me if that's the thing that's the same, but honestly I devote too much to my jobs. I'm eager with a good work ethic, I don't complain about hard work or hard to deal with people. I don't make trouble.

I really want to get out of hard labor. I have body aches and pains. My joints are always stiff, and I'm seeing specialists for diagnosis in what's causing it.

I guess it feels like it's too late to change my career path. I'm a good team player, I'm good with people (But I can't do door to door sales or cold calls. Ew.), I have positive attitude and work ethic. I'm actually great with computers and know a lot about business management.

But I'm a felon, I committed a crime 12 years ago at the age of 19. I'm definitely not him anymore, but now I can't seem to catch a break. In my opinion, I'm a safe hire as a felon. I won't quit for any stupid reason or because of boredom.

I guess I'm really venting here, but let me know if anyone in Austin knows anyone willing to give a guy with a past a try.

I’m pretty sure I just caught a scam on LinkedIn. PLS TELL ME IF IM WRONG

weareandiamo on linkedin to help me pls

At first, everything sounded legit:

- I was told I was top 20 out of 500 applicants

- They said the person at the top of the program made it in 11 weeks

- The schedule was supposed to be 8:30–5:30

- I was told the pay was $100 a day, with a promise it would go up later

- They claimed they had partnerships with T-Mobile and Chime AND MORE

- They also promised benefits

But then the weird part:

the job was basically just public speaking all day.

And when I tried to negotiate, they wouldn’t budge at all.

The whole thing started feeling off fast. Too many promises, too much hype, and way too many red flags.

Has anyone else run into stuff like this on LinkedIn?

Only USA available. Comment your state.

I feel hopeless at this point, I got laid off my job around November and ever since I haven’t been able to get a job, I’ve tried to apply to so many restaurants and they all say the same thing that they have “so many applicants and will get back to me” but they never do , I just want any job that is actually willing to hire me , like literally anything. Please I’m desperate at this point

My main job im only getting like 30k and can barely get the basics so trying to look for a side job just for the weekends , a bookstore , a vinyl store , a coffee shop , anyone know that I can do during the weekend?

I'm a trans person in my 20s. I collect nude art and want a statement piece for my home of myself. This will be very kink themed but not pornographic, all artistic and maybe slightly sexually charged. Most boudoir photographers I feel like don't offer this service and I don't know anybody in the Austin area that is willing to do something of this nature.

This will be done in a professional setting only, such as a studio, which I am willing to provide upon request. I expect for you to have some technical knowledge on photography and your own equipment. I will only provide my own personal outfits. Students are very much welcomed if not preferred.

I will pay 100 an hour for your time and shooting will be done preferably around 05/1-3 or any weekend beginning May.

This is 100% a real and genuine post. I'd prefer we meet up first. I'd like to reiterate this will all be done professionally. Thank you

I need a couch (it's a double-seater power recliner couch) moved from the CubeSmart on Pleasant Valley (78741) to my first-floor apartment in 78745. My back will not allow me to help you, but I am happy to pay you. Please let me know if you're able to help and what you will charge.

I'm looking for an executive/personal assistant hybrid role. I have over 10 years supporting busy professionals and have moved back to the Austin area this year.

My resume reflects a wide range of experience due to frequent relocations with my husband’s career in the hotel industry. That adaptability has become a strength: I step into new environments quickly, establish order fast, and deliver results without hand holding. In some ways though, I feel as if employers take a look at my resume and get nervous. I'm super professional, a strong communicator, and a worker bee and have applied to many positions with no luck.

I'd love to find a busy professional or family to support and put my multi tasking skills to use!

If you’re just interested, feel free to comment “interest.” If you’d like to move forward with the opportunity, please send me a message.

Required : computer, stable internet connection
Location : US, Canada
Type : 100% Remote

Really just shooting the shot out, I have a pretty detailed resume with skills in sales, driving, mechanical, technology.

I have no degree, 23m, but am looking to find a career or at least an amazing workplace with upside for growth.

I’m looking for something that will make 4,000 or over monthly. If there’s anything out there please reach out.

Really do not enjoy these basic jobs over indeed that are 20/hr

So I’m a project manager by trade and training, PMP certified, the whole nine. I was working at Indeed most recently, and well, you know about the layoffs.

I went in unemployment, but wasn’t able to find a new job before it ran out. I started Door Dash as a temporary stop gap, so I could keep paying my bills.

Honestly it’s been way better than I expected. I’m able to make my own hours and I’ve been spending half my day doing deliveries and half my day looking for something I’m actually skilled for. It winds up averaging about $20 an hour.

Today after I finished my deliveries I saw a new referral button pop up, I guess they’re doing a campaign this week. If you sign up using my link, you can earn a $400 bonus after 270 deliveries (within 60 days). I average anywhere between 10-20 deliveries a day depending on how long I work so that’s totally doable.

If that sounds like something that might be right for you, use my link to sign up. Even if you don't hit the bonus quota, it's been really good for helping me stay afloat in this terrible job market.
