work

Anybody have any experience staying in mexico for a while? I'd like to find a job and work and maybe work on staying there more permanently. Anybody familiar with that process? Is it as much a pain in the ass as we make it for people coming into the US? Either way, people do find ways to do...

I'm brand new to this community, Reddit sent me here earlier today. At the beginning of the year I quit the job I've been at for the last three years because I hate stagnation and wasn't happy at home. Spent one of the best summers of my life working in Yellowstone and plan on doing seasonal...

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0395814/ Working Stiffs (1989) gave me so much information on how people that work can really devote themselves to their careers and advance in them to become winners in society. A treasure of independent film. What's your favorite comedy at the moment?

I am considering moving to slab city, and I was wondering if there was anywhere for me to set up a place for sex work, since the police don't come up as often. Would the people of slab city drive me out, or would they be more accepting? I mean no offense, I am just asking before I head up there...

This would be my first time doing it, but I got a heart of gold, a willingness to work, a van to live out of and a beautiful puppy! Just kind of throwing it out there. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Hey, I'm in cali at my hometown of sacramento and they bulldozed our village of tents on the freeway, so I moved to the other side of the fence so cal trans couldn't say anything and all I have to trip off of is the bulls which never come here and the tourists in town train ride can't see this...

Using only the information you have right now, please consider whether or not I should go back to work. If you have time, please include the reasoning behind your vote.

Hey Guys! I'm new here, I love reading everyone's stories and protips for cruising this planet. I'm a student in California and I'm going to go work in a cannery next month in Naknek, Alaska. It's my first time and I'm just wondering if anyone has any do's and dont's they can pass my way :)...

From the YouTube description: "In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as an AB (able bodied sailor) in the deck...

Just wanted to share some slightly organized thoughts about my experience worktrading. I hope it helps anyone who is thinking about living this way for any amount of time. Shelters: - bring your own/tent - trailers/tiny homes - room in house with host - hostels(bunk beds, sleeping around other...

Okay last thread for awhile, I promise. I was just wondering, what would be some ideas for having a work shed in the backyard? Just something small and simple for working on robotics projects in. I was thinking of setting up one of those stand-in tents, but that would kill the grass, plus it's...

Okay, so I really would prefer some advice on this one. Any practical advice. I have all these story ideas in my head, and I want to draw them, but every time I think about the gap between where I am at now skills-wise, and where I need to be at to create my work, there is this sense of dread...

I've heard it relieves things like stress and anxiety, but there's so few studies done on it and so few reliable sources, it's hard to tell. I once vaped CBD oil, but it was a small percentage, and it didn't do shit to help me focus or stay calm at my old retail job. It actually made my...

You know, I got to thinking, the knife is a fundamental tool. Not only is it a weapon, but it's also a tool. As a matter as fact, I would even argue that it is more of a tool than it is a weapon. Unless we're talking about a Bowie knife that thing's a fuckin weapon, primarily, there's no way...

Not long ago, on Dec. 30th 2019 I decided to bail out of the current living conditions I was under in south central ohio with no plan whatsoever except the experience of the past encoded in my bones. With all my trash packed tight in one bag, I hitched a ride from the sticks to a Microtel...

I've got a lot of problems with aa, but I'd like to make it work for me, just because anywhere you go there are meetings, and sometimes you just gotta yell at a roomful of strangers who understand the terror. I tried therapy, which I think ended up doing more harm than good. Especially...

The STIGMA The night time always brings with it the doubts and fears that the sun drives away. People instinctively curl in on themselves. Protecting from invisible fears. The daytime glances turn to nighttime glares as the aura of the stigma creeps crawling up your skin like a scaly hand...

I've been working at a hotel about 2 years now. I'm tired of chasing around dumpster divers when I support dumpster diving. I'm tired of chasing away people sniping cigarette butts when I'd do the same in that position if I smoked. People trying to get a free breakfast when we have plenty. I...

Figured this might be useful to someone I’ve yet to really post it anywhere. This is the work I did this month on my 2005 Chevy Astro cargo van.

Another punk show Down Under, if anyone's around Brissy. My band is calling it a day after almost a decade, we're kickin' at as we should and partying at a rad little DIY space called Common House with some of our favourite locals. This band has been a massive part of my life and it's a bit...

Out of Action August 14 Skeptics suggest that “folk politics”—marches, protests, and the like—are a distraction from the challenges of real change. Illustration by Adam Maida That winter of 2003—you remember it, and so do I—the world assembled, arms linked, to protest the prospect of war in...

We approached a trailer. My boyfriend, my cousin and I. It was falling apart. There was a tarp covering parts of the roof, with tires on top of it to hold it down. Surrounding it was an unkempt yard with trash mangled within it. Cats were roaming about. There was a fenced off area with small...

Newsweek published a article about the drop in SNAP "participation". What caught my eye was a quote from one of the prominent critics of SNAP, Garrett Graves - “There are talented people across our country who aren’t pursuing the full potential of their capabilities, largely because...

Just got my visa approved and got my tickets. Ready to go next month! Just wondering if anyone here would have tips on things. Mainly, if there are any great places to work that you know of. And what all I need for that besides visa? Tax # etc. Anything that I really shouldn't miss? Great...

Glad to find the community. it's been awhile since I've been on the road, took a short detour that ended up being an extended stay. But it's all good, I needed to reconnect with friends & family after being on the road for 15 years. And so, I am looking at eliminating years of accumulation &...

6 months and my EBT ran out. I'm in Arizona. I'm an arthritic man. Not very hirable. Good work ethic but the body is failing. Suggestions??

I've lived in squats for the past two years. It's a way of living thats always been dear to my heart and has brought me a lot of friendships and experiences. I lived in one particular squat for almost a year, so last march I decided it was time to move. from here: to there: by foot. It...

Hey there folks. I finally have a wee little laptop so I'm starting to work on writing my first zine in probably a year at least. I'm a bit rusty and would love some good discussion to help me better word some of the ideas and opinions I have on pacifism during a large scale revolution...

Hello world.

Hey folks! I'm sitting here thinking about how awesome the jamboree is going to be, and I can't help but think about how much work it's going to be also. Most everyone who attends is helpful to us when it comes to keeping things chill and tidy, but I need a few people who are willing to do a...
