Heyyo sushi's :)
Haven't been on an image board I'm awhile, used to frequent lainchan but it seems to have gotten a bit boring from what I remember sushi definitely seems alot more lively and fun. Haven't got much to do with my life as of recent after my girlfriend dumped me (accusing me of beating her, but that never happened…) So I'm a bit bored these days and since I live out in the middle of nowhere there's absolutely nothing to do… I used to smoke the devil's lettuce to get through my day and calm my thoughts but I don't know anyone to buy it from. So I guess I'll revert back to my old ways of being an internet nerd. lol. Anything interesting happening in your lives, sushi's?

>Pick up any good Touhou stuff?
I did! I'll try and list a few things here, might take some photos and post in one of the dead figure threads in /kawaii/.

I picked up a bunch of Touhou stuff but the items I am happiest about are a handmade Yuyuko plush, Marisa and Reisen sofubi figures, Magical Maid Sakuya figure, and the Liquid Stone Kanako GK. The rest of the Touhou stuff I got was mostly minor things like keychains, pins, and other assorted items.

Your situation isn't ideal. I can't really offer good advice as I can't relate to your exact position, but I'll try and give a few of my thoughts.
You tried but ended up where you started, but you put in the effort.
> if I don't get out of my career path now, I'll be in a kitchen for the rest of my life.
I don't think this is true. Even if you have to stay in this job a while longer, you have the ability to get another job, sure it didn't work out the first time. But who's to say it won't work out the next? I'd start applying to other places slowly while working and just hope to be lucky. Don't give up hope! 頑張れ!!!

Think about it this way: if they took you back so promptly after you left them, they have you in good standing. You've proven that you can be a good asset in this place, which means you can do the same in other places when the time comes.

Right now, you're sitting on top of a spring. You took your time to compress it further, adding more potential energy into that system. Something will click and all that energy will be released, flinging you up high, the more you compress that spring, the higher it will fling you.

Nah, there's no such thing as "balance" when you work in a kitchen. I have neither money nor fulfillment. It's got a demonic hierarchy. You either stay a line cook making dogshit pay or clamber your way up to management where your life gets sucked away through call-ins, late hours, and having more responsibilities shoved onto you by the higher ups. The reason I had this crisis was by realizing most of my coworkers were 10-20 years older than me, and had no education or work experience necessary to go anywhere else in life. And that's going to be me too.

But if I can't have money or fulfillment in a kitchen, at least I could find a job where I have money. I went through trade school because I figured education was the ticket to a better job, but nope, turns out 5 years experience is. And I can't really get 5 years experience if I can't get hired in the first place.

I just wish I could get out of this fucked up cycle. I've been broke my entire life, and I just want to be stable.

That's a hella complex situation to say the least…

>I figured education was the ticket to a better job, but nope, turns out 5 years experience is.
Not exactly. It certainly helps, but this is something that, depending on the trade you picked, can be bullshitted through. The first way is through networking with teachers and colleagues when learning. The second way is through internships, usually part of the course but you can go for internships after your learning journey and pull off the same thing (it's work for no money for a couple of months, which might make things even more difficult in your case though). The third way is through "freelancing". Sure you didn't work for a company, but if your chosen trade so permits it, you can get your work experience like this. The employment ads may have some barriers like "5 years experience" or "fluent italian", but if you've only got 2 years of experience and your italian is B1 level, they might still take you. All they really want is you to prove you're capable at what they want you to do and usually getting the interview is half the battle won. If a place is desperate enough and there's not enough people applying, you've got a fair chance.

Hi sushi!
I need advice.
A while ago I went on a date but it was super akward.
We never really reconnected after since we both were waiting for the other to say something.
The thing is I really want to reconnect with her, but I am afraid it would be awkward.
How should I go about reconnecting with her, it has been a while now.
I guess I was just waiting for her

Just do what >>19436 says and go "hey do you want to go on another date?" if she declines or never responds, you got your answer. Of course, if she says yes, make sure you schedule a day where you got nothing else going on and the possibility of nothing happening (I've had that problem a lot where suddenly my work or family needs me on my days off). Guys tend to overthink these things too much and get caught up on a girl, but really if she's not interested don't let it be your demise. Obviously she was interested initially so you clearly aren't ugly or anything and you'll be able to bounce back and find someone else.

I want to die. Feel like I should go with a "screw it" attitude and just keep getting rejected or flaked instead of doing literal nothing. Maybe I can make a game out of it. Better than just dying and giving up. Social Anxiety plagues me like hell and I always feel someone will backstab me in someway even if things do go well, which is why I resort back to doing nothing. It's a vicious cycle.

You can still create positive relationships while under the assumption the other party will backstab you at the faintest opportunity. All you have to do is be privy about the information you share.

>I just want the world to be kind and comfy
It just isn't and I have accepted (?) this as a part of reality. Like, it may sound stupid, but us having to eat just to stay alive is cruel both towards us and towards the eaten.
In childhood (and sometimes now) I had that desire to just be a ghost. Completely invisible and unaffectable by the real world, but I would still like to watch. But this dream will never come true, and what is worse, even if it did, I would probably change my mind on it, finding new ways to be upset about. Human mind is chaotic and humans in generally are disgusting to me, I guess. Not that I actually hate people, more like I don't think we are particularly likable.

If it's one year is what you did something more like a bootcamp? or is it more like Full sail/WGU? But You probably have a bit of an uphill battle tbh because of your background & the current economy.
First get over the fact you think your projects are cringe & just list them on your resume. First line of resume reading, especially for new grad roles, is usually HR people who don't know anything technical. If you're really insecure don't upload it to your github & just explain it on your resume. No one has to see it, but they know you did something. Somewhat unethical, but you can fake a club to add because unless it's some big organization they can't doublecheck them.
Finally this sounds overwhelming, but make it a numbers game. Use simplify to autofill Workday applications & apply to anything IT, SWE, or tech related everyday. Apply until you run out of new jobs for the day. It sounds hard, but once you get some music or videos in the background it's very turn your brain off.
Finally like the other sushi roll said hackathons are pretty chill. If you're really scared do a virtual one.

I'm a secuirty engineer, it isn't as cool as it sounds what I do is half audit, half legacy systems work. The people, amenities, & pay is great, but we don't get enough work. It's a mix of working in a slow industry & being underutilized intentionally, so if shit hits the fan everyone is free to be on-call. To give an example of the workload I know people who left, despite all the benefits because the psychological toll of doing nothing all day was getting to them.
I've always been 50/50 on it. On one hand I come from a background where the type of money I make literally was life changing, I made enough money to finally move away from my mentally unstable parents with left over for retirement savings. Alongside that I'm the kid of immigrants, so I've seen how unpleasant jobs can really get. On the other had doing nothing while being stuck in a cage like cubicle & having to justify why I deserve my paycheck everyday does have a mental toll after awhile.
I've been trying to be more positive in general though, so I try to to be thankful. Having a lot of bills + knowing what 'dream' jobs are like suppresses a lot of the doom spirals.

>I got burnt out last year and since then I can't get myself to even think of coming back. It's just sickening. What is more sickening is that it's the highest paying position a regular mortal with no connections can get. Conditions are also phenomenal.
This is an issue I see a lot of high paid earners feel. The whole golden handcuffs idea. It's nice to know other people feel like this too because no one in my family can really relate cause they're poor immigrants

Sushi, you can't let people tell you this and you cannot internalize this mindset if finding new love is something you want. There are no guarantees in life– for anything, but there will always be new experiences and there is joy in those things. If you treat yourself and others with care, other people will follow suit. I personally think you will be just fine.

Sorry if that came off as negative, but at some point you have to accept there's things you'll never reach no matter how far you extend your hand. That's not to say everything is pointless, just because you can't have everything doesn't mean you can't have something. But what people are capable of achieving varies. Just because something seems easily obtainable to you doesn't mean it's the same for everyone else.

I don't know why my parents act the way they do. They've always been this way though. Addendum to the internet discussion, I was given my first computer at a very young age so I would stay in my bedroom but I'm not that into internet culture, especially less so now that a lot of my websites are getting shut down or being updated to a new, less user-based/more corporate model and I'm largely not invested in websites that spew algorithmic content at its user.
My closest guess with my parents is: father doesn't want me interacting with other people my age because he says our generation is ruining society; mother doesn't want me leaving because I'll be corrupted by Satan. Something like that.

Tough luck sushi, hope you are able to get through this. As for Internet communities shutting down, I'm not so sure what the solution is besides just start using other websites. There are of course smaller places such as this very website, but these will always be run out of the goodness of the owner's heart. Maybe Fediverse is the future?
