If you have the skills and can sell yourself, working for yourself is an option. I always preferred it to working for others, even compared to the best job I ever had working for others. Of course, it can be slow to get going, but once the ball is rolling, word of mouth will take over if you provide quality service for a reasonable price.
@Alta.Gama looks like he’s herding cattle. That reminded me that juicing cows can be a good option too, even if you are working for someone else! Down side is it doesn’t really pay very well. Mooooo…
Porn industry ^^ Not the job you have in mind. The ones behind the scene on datacenters, templates design etc … you don’t live one day without a laugh burst. Good hazes firmly advised.
Independent contractor. You make the rules. Do something valuable to/for people and you will can do whatever you want. Your customers will come back if you’re stoned or not.
Either that or produce something. Anything. Make a product and the owner’s state of mind doesn’t matter. The product speaks for itself.
^^ Now sometimes, when i need some bucks. I’ve no longer the energy to handle this kind of job full time. Better to be young and a lot “free”. Not for that ^^, for the planning mostly. Joke aside, on the work load it’s pretty intense and you make impossible hours.
Top three … they are all from the full time position.
1 : Every friday i had to take the backup from the servers and to bring the bands to the bank (yes in a vault), these spaces are very cold in setting with A/C (it’s hot in Gibraltar). But this day they was four inside the server’s space, with weird matrix cosplay in plain recording ^^ It was fun.
2 : I’ve made a fews gif and an add, hardcore one, of the owner of the house i was renting. I’ve never told her ^^
3 : High as fuck, it’s a freaking hilarious job I swear. But there is things something that are complicated to do. I was personally unable to work on the furry niche (people cosplaying in plush animals), not because disturbed but because it was impossible for me to work on it without lmao.
Nothing fancy but it give an idea of what is making your daily routine ^^ At the secondary question, yes you meet people. But in fact mostly it’s like all others companies, everybody is there for the money and focus on it.
On ganja it’s pretty relax at the moment you rush like everybody, they don’t really care about testing people and to teach how they have to live. But maybe it was the location, I’ve no other experience in the industry.
Dreams! Not sure if it a job. The thought of making things is what I like to do. Growing weed is a great job to do when high. Work in a pizza joint. I have gotten high on every job. Makes me happy.
Just sit back and look at women’s volleyball. I would like to judge at the Olympics.
Smoke weed for money.
Be a male posers for art. Get real high. And then get butt naked.
Joking.
I’m happy. I was a little upset. Life.
Helpdesk… technical support. Work at home… smoke at your desk anytime you want. Lots of companies that offer this type of work now offer it as “work from home” type jobs post covid. Usually pays pretty good too if you find a good gig. Some offer 6 figure positions and plenty of overtime. Your ass does get sore after a while. Small price to pay for a lot of freedom IMO.
Lets just say this…
There are a lot of scaffold builders that smoke weed.
This was from Marathon refinery, random drug tests were expected.
I do think companies know how to keep star players isolated.
The best scaffold builders were the potheads.
They work surprisingly safely.
Well they know if they don’t and get hurt or hurt someone else it is time for a drug test.
So you see why injuries or accidents are avoided at all costs.
I had to pass a hair test just to get on this job site.
It was a live refinery.
And yes I did pass the hair test but I had to give a hair sample twice, they dropped my first sample on the floor or so they said.
So the trade is pot-friendly, but the drug testing is not.
But you do get paid pretty well to get high all day, every day.
i worked as a scaffold crew leader at a marathon refinery. highest i’ve ever been was 600’ so far, and since i don’t do that any more i think that will be the personal best. i miss it sometimes.
Very interesting…
Michigan?
I worked for Brand Scaffold
That is where these were taken.
600 feet is pretty fucking high, I am not sure how high I was at my highest point ever, starting from the ground up I think I am at just under 500 feet or something close.
I am retired also, or I would not wanna show pics and talk about this at all.
You are not allowed to take pics in the refinery round here, that will get you fired in a hurry.
yeah, we had to take a “test”. i failed the wire feed welding part, which is not a requirement for a carpenter, but what can you say when they make the rules. 3d year apprentice anyway, and they kept me working all the way until they kicked me out. that ba is an elected official now, dirty bastard.
