Go try to get a side gig when mcdonalds doesn't hire you because they have better options for hiring.It means that this should be a side gig, not your primary source of income. Which should be obvious. I mean, I'm not going to invoke the Just World Fallacy and screech the "just work harder, it was easy for me in the 50s, damn kids today" bullshit here. I know the economy is terrible. There are still more than 2 unemployed people for every job opening in America, and worse in Europe. For those lucky enough to have jobs, wages relative to productivity have been stagnant for decades, and realized income has shrunk for all but the top 0.5% since 2000. But the truth of it is botting is simply not going to get you enough cash to cover the bills, get you insurance, and fund your 401k. Its great for earning beer money, something to put in an account to save up towards a yearly vacation or something. But it is not enough to get you going as an adult, and you need to figure something out.
Yeah the economy in europe is totally fucked you can't even get a job here working for 700 a month and that isn't even net.
I go to the supermarket and I see 14-16 year olds working for less then 100 a month sure they're not working fulltime but their pay is so crappy nobody older gets hired.
Sure go to university and get yourself into some huge debt i'm sure that'll pay off at a starting salary of 1.8k and that isn't net either.
Even I know kids that are going to university here right now are gonna be working at shitty jobs for even shittier pay untill they get to that 1.8k monthly and sit there for the rest of their lives getting fired every year or two.
It's not the shitty economy it's supply and demand and there's gonna be less and less demand for human employees.
Regular jobs don't exist here anymore 90% of the new jobs are temporary jobs and ''self employed'' jobs to make it easy to fire you when you get too expensive or ask for more then water and bread.
