I've been trying to get something at a cashier or something like that. I would like an office job to be honest, or even a desk job since I don't have to stand up all the time. Anything that requires me to stand up I can handle, but it's just going to be an absolute murder due to my flat feet even with insoles in my shoes.

Another reason why I prefer office jobs is because I'd much rather work at a desk than stand up all day. The first few days of my job were absolute torture because my feet were hurting so badly. @__@;
 
It's one of the reasons why I kinda left a volunteer job that I had some years ago. I was standing up for like 6 hours a day, almost no break, and every day when it was time to go home I would nearly fall when walking to the car and I would be limping the entire next day or two after because that's how much my feet and ankles would hurt. Speaking of which, a driving job would be something else I like, like maybe delivering mail. As long as it isn't driving a big rig or a limo or any kind of thing that involves a vehicle that I don't know how to drive or include picking up and driving other people.
 
I prefer sitting too though it's apparently bad for you?
 
Sitting for long periods of time is bad for you, but so is standing in one place for hours. I get really upset when people tell me to stop complaining about my retail job because "at least youre standing and moving around!" No, not really, sometimes I have to stand in the same place for over an hour because of a rush. It's extremely taxing on your joints to stand for extended period of times and I think its inhumane that sitting down at a retail job is seen as "lazy" in the states.

Lol, sorry for the rant. Anyway- humans were meant to MOVE AROUND, not stand in the same spot for hours. We need to keep our muscles and joints moving.
 
Yeah my feet get super sore if I have to stand in the same spot, we need to move :c

my entire job is to stand in one place for hours, only moving around to seat people at the restaurant.

otherwise... just stand. .-.
 
My volunteer job that I had was just standing in one spot the entire time, cooking some food, and if I ever moved, it was usually just turning around, taking one or two steps forward, and then immediately turning back around and taking one or two steps back. If I was getting a drink for someone, that would be 3 steps.
 
I work in an office environment, so I basically have to sit in front of a computer for long periods of time, but every hour or so I stand up and walk for 5 minutes and then I get back to work.
I really feel the need to do it otherwise my legs will get sore.
 
I have to stand for 6-8 hours with little to no movement each Saturday at work. It is no fun I can tell you that

I feel like that at worse, I'm going to have to work in fast food which I really do not want to and if I have to then I at least hope that I get a cashier job because no one should allow me to go near food and cook it, that's a disaster waiting to happen. I like to cook, but like I feel that if I were to cook food all day long at a certain standard for other I would end up getting fired and then arrested because I feel like my cooking is not good.
 
New modem came in today to fix the internet... never have I ever gone mental over an increase in internet speeds... im ashamed of myself

i've considered being a cook here and there but knowing me id eventually fuck something up
 
If I land my dream career I'll be at a computer for 12+ hours a day :v I'm really gonna have to get my butt to the gym when that happens lol
 
We may have found an apartment guys!! it's a bit pricey but it's a good building
 
Congrats! :O For me, I'm kinda saving for when I have to move out in about a year or two, but that will have to wait until I get a better paying job, too...
 
We are with my brother atm and it's hell ;; he's so controlling
 
ouch. :c

I'm finally getting along more with my mother for the first time in years so I don't mind living with her for the time being, but after a year or two years I'm pretty much out. I need to be on my own and with a stable, decent enough paying job.
 
That's good! It's my relationship with my father that needs help. Mom's ok.
