I have a friend who is legally blind. He realised that he needed to create his own opportunities and that others would not give him a break. So he started his own production company.
How well is that going?
And how is he doing? This was my realization too. It is a hard thing to accept but sometimes you don't have any other choice.
What is he producing?
I also have a blind friend. I gave him some advice. But he's set on getting a tech job.
I struck out on my own and I'm self employed and learning certificates and trades and degrees that are in high demand.
Jeez, these employers are the pits, they seem to expect, Tom Cruise quality guys, looks, personality, but they pay hardly enough
to get you out of bed. and the bus does limit where you can go, but what do we have public transit for if we can't use it to get to jobs.
Tom Cruise is a nut bar who can't keep his personal life together, and is a cult member. Is that what employers actually want?

Silly man, it's for scratching your nick name onto the walls and windows and daytime drinkers to get around without getting rained on
Been there. In the job market and the ever wonderful dating pool. And they keep saying there are so many jobs out there like so many fish in the sea.
There are many fish in the sea, however social engineering the population has mind controlled women into believing men are no good, we do not need them. And homosexuality is becoming a thing through abnormal conditions forced through the public institutions because of social engineering. At the same moment women only want men who make a lot of money; so if you are poor forget it.
@@jeran881 rejection is a guaranteed date.
I see a huge overlap on how the job market is to that of the dating market. Almost overlaps but I dont know why.
@@JJ-vp3bd I must admit I have not posed that question to myself even as I realize the similarities. Perhaps it is because they are both failed markets, catering to the few top outliers of society. I am certain some would say I am the failure and not the market. I would agree with that last centiment if there were loosers in both markets but the way birth rates and homeless levels are going, I think there is more to it.
@@jeran881 but there is soooooooooo many people going through the same thing . We cant all be failures..... Whats wrong with this systen
AI is playing an ever increasing role screening out job applications.
@@Vrillin T-1000 time lol…
Then they don't get to complain about not being able to find employees. They don't even know if they are looking or not.
If you haven’t had a job in the past year employers think it’s a red flag and won’t even consider the application 15:05
@@JasonScott604 facts.
It's completely ridiculous, especially when it's their own policies that are denying people those opportunities in the first place. This is where the government could be stepping in to fine companies who pull this stunt, but the idea of Trudeau (if you are also Canadian) actually doing something to help those who are struggling is completely outside the realm of reality
Bro this is so true. I got some cancer and explaining the gap in employment is going terribly.
@@samuelmmmk181 sorry to hear that hopefully you are doing ok
@@samuelmmmk181 really?
I've had job applications on file since 1997. Still waiting to hear back from those employers for a relevant opportunity.😊
@@marcusleja7133 they will find a way good role for you, give them time.
Rejection is a part of life, yes, and I don't mind a few. However it comes to a point where theres way too much rejections that it's nearly impossible but to take it personally. It absolutley destoryed my mind and self esteem when i started my job search first time in my life. It ruined me to say the least.
Exactly! When I was growing up, my parents told me that I should take the rejection and use it to motive myself to do better next time. Well, as I've learned, it doesn't matter if you change your strategy when looking for work or looking for matches on dating apps. None of it matters when no one, literally no one, wants to give you a chance. Of course, my parents don't have a clue what it's like living in a country that doesn't want you and doesn't want you to succeed
It also gets to a point where I can’t take it seriously anymore tbh…
You need to catch a break to have some luck…oi.
it shall until you realize the truth. Munching marrow with your teeth and shallowing it to make you stronger is fleeting knowledge. Breaking the bone is the hard part but the pay off is worth it!
@@azurespectrum1985 like a wolf gnawing it’s own leg off for freedom.
Don't forget the wool socks to bed
The dating pool in Toronto is a sausage-fest i.e. too many single men, and not enough quality single women to go around. Based on the ROA (Rate of Attraction Scale), the 6's & 7's give you attitude, the 8's, 9's, & 10's are inaccessible, and if you happen to see them they already have dudes i.e., 80/20 rule, which serves only women that aim for high status men in a westernized country like America or Canada. A rich man can change a broke but hot woman's life, but a rich woman won't give a broke guy the time of day, unless he is well over 6 feet tall and only for a short-term fling.
@@craigs1437 facts.
I have this theory - the closer the job is to what people consider "creative" industries, the lower the pay and the harder it is to land a job. However, we have a need for janitors, garbage truck drivers and bus drivers.
@@johng2636 this seems true but the caveat is that if you know someone or have a way of getting going on your own business then you can be very successful and make great money.
I've lost my mind but I wont give up, I tried quitting but it quit on me insane crazy as life can be, I wrote poetry last night, rain wind thunder it fell on the street poor tree.
Hey man, be creative…let it out
Uline sucks. The post high relative wages for the position, hold interviews, then hire no one. They constantly interview for the same positions, sometimes packing dozens of people in and having the job open for up to a year. I don't know what their game is.
@@adamspencer5142 the same as everywhere else it sounds like.
The best part about living in a small city is that you end up applying for the same jobs over and over again expecting different results 12:29
@@JasonScott604 Insanity!
Reminds me of tinder. I used to match the same girls over and over and complain that there were no new singles. Then it occurred to me that the available ones already rejected me, and I exhausted my pool. I was resetting my account each time hoping there were more people but no. The numbers game only works when there are plentiful resources
Sanity is overrated.
@@MidNightRider2001 social expectations, you know?
Class act Wojak regarding introduction and the channel being for everyone 👍
In our region have you thought about applying for a bus driver position?? Might be worth a try , I know a couple drivers and they train you from the start.
I have not actually, I’ll look into this, thank you.
Most US job growth since 2000 went to people not born in the US.
@@MidNightRider2001 I feel like this is true for Canada too.
See that's progress (deciding to do the window cleaning work solo) ! 🙂
I guess…it’s more being under a microscope…
Do you have any videos about your diet? how do you budget for food?
@@nuglet3340 I do have videos on this topic or at least it gets covered in a lot of other videos - I tend to eat once a day, maybe twice and I rely on my parents to buy my food and sometimes they even buy me some weed so I don’t completely lose my mind.
Is there any warehouses or distribution centres in your area ? They tend to hire frequently and without much hassles
@@JasonScott604 Uhm, I think Amazon has one like 45 minutes from here…I used to live 10 minutes from it but that was when I was at the height of my injury downtime.
@@IRLWojak I haven’t heard too many good things about the working conditions at Amazon
Learn a skill become your own boss and create a business. Don't ever rely on someone else for your own success.
Say you get a job. Then your begging for shifts. It's sad what canada has become.
@@ashleygoldsmith3479 the last bit is very true.
Wojak, have you considered applying for work in the Sudbury area? I understand their hiring market is strong, and less drama driven than the Toronto market.
@@marcusleja7133 that’s wild that you mentioned Sudbury, I was just talking about that city 2 days ago…
House less gentleman, Extra Cheesy Broccoli, on RUclips has found some fresh success with work up there. It's not that small a place. I'd consider it as an option.

This world is messed up
We are living in peak "messed up-ness" right now as far as I can tell...maybe the end of the Roman Empire was slightly worse.

When did you go bald not trying to be rude just asking
Did you panic
Do you think young men should fight their genetics or gracefully bald?
I started late, around 32-ish, but It didn't really look that bad until I was 36. Then I started to just shave it for sake of ease. I prefer it shaved tbh.
I started losing my hair at 16 so I just started shaving it
@IRLWojak awww don't say that. I made it to my mid-30s with only a slightly receding hairline, and good hair genetics on my mom's side, and thought I was safe now. But I've noticed the past year or so it seems thinner on the front like a bit too see-through.
I'm like Dr. Jekyll turning into Mr Wojak over here. The tattoos are gonna start popping out of my skin any day now
People who care about hair are hard to be around....
lol...kinda true...
Get your tattoos removed.
@@deadreckoner5276 no, it’s 2024, are you living in the dark ages? Are you going to pay for it? I couldn’t get a job before the tattoos, it has nothing to do with tattoos, grow up.
@@deadreckoner5276 I’m not getting invited to interviews…how is my appearance a problem?
If you get an interview, tattoos will definitely not help, especially a neck tattoo.
Grow up? I’m 37 making $116k USD. Tattoos are a major turn off for any employer.
Tattoos are for teenagers.
@@deadreckoner5276 no they aren’t, tattoos are not for teenagers, your mentality is - I could be making the same money if I was born in the US and 7 years after I was born - your generation had no idea how lucky you are to be born when you were, the perfect place to be when the people who refused to retire when I was looking for gainful employment were returning 10 years delayed, right when you and a whine swathe of millennials with a tech background (something nobody advised would be a good field to go into back when I was in school. Bragging about how much you make when you live in a different country and are from a completely different co-hort of people makes no sense. Use your brain, it earns you a lot of money it should be able to process what I’m saying. Caring about a tattoo on someone is like caring what name brand of socks they choose to wear. Only a nimrod would care about that.
Now please, enlighten us with your background? Did you come from an upper middle class family? Poverty? The city? The farm? Telling me your age and wage means nothing to me whatsoever without the rest of the story. At one point in time, when I was younger then you, I was making about the same money. Things can change.
@@deadreckoner5276 RUclips is for teenagers, let’s be real, I’m on here as a creator, not a consumer - what 37 year old man watches RUclips videos on a channel like this? What a waste of time. How sad is your life that my life is exciting to watch for you…just wow 🙄…
PS - I know people covered in tattoos that make a lot more money than you do my guy.
