What’s it like to work at stockX? I quit after 1 day

[alchemist iq]

18 dollars a hour small time very small time

I’m sure this wouldn’t fund your concaine habit. But you gotta do what you gotta do.

 

[slighted]

No matter how ****ty it may have been, what will future employers think about a 1 day hire?

Probably better to leave this StockX gig off the resume

Wish you the best OP, no shame in doing these kinds of jobs to put food on the table, but mindless repetitive labor like this is a waste of human potential IMO and just soul grinding; better left to be done by actual robots.

Stop it. When the robots do come most will not have a job. From truck drivers to surgeons.

Thought this was u working for Elon Musk. Severely disappointed in what I read. I'm let down. Sobbing, currently.

Not sure if this story is true or not, but I'm kinda blown u relocated for 18 and hour...

Some places are already successfully experimenting with universal basic income to account for this.

I imagine no one really cares about their job there and they just put green stickers on everything

That’s what I would do

Assembly line type work can be draining, especially mentally. I use to work at one of the Amazon Fulfillment warehouses. My position was quality control with stock. Basically I stood at this one station all day and counted whatever came to my station to make sure it was there. I was there for 6 months until I got fired for being 1 percent off on my quality efficiency. My work week was Wednesday - Saturday 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. Work days were long, boring, and draining. I started using my saved up PTO and vacation time to leave early or not even come to work. Also whenever VTO (voluntary time off) was offered I took it every time. Now I dj and produce music full time. Its actually been a year since I got let go from Amazon. They fired ya boy the week of Thanksgiving. Crazy how everything with music picked up a couple of months after though.

how do you make money from that? like how did things pick up

asking bc i make beats too, recently lost all my 2018 work and looking for some direction.

Crying aside we can all see the “authentication” people claim to be paying for to justify the BS prices is BS itself

I’m 22 going thru these bull**** *** jobs like they going outta style and slowly this is becoming my MO. These bosses just want you to make them feel like you did your job.

At 30, I dont know...but right now I’d get some headphones and thug thru what you described to get my money up for a few months.

Seems like the job itself wasn’t hard but it was just hard to do for the forseeable future at 30, which I feel you.

It’s true but this guy is soft. I wouldn’t work for anyone but if I was there I would do as I please and at my pace, especially if no ones bothering you?

No way people do this

If people wear the sticker on their new era hats. Even that big sticker on the on field hats which took over the entire bill, I wouldn’t be shocked to see people wearing their shoes with a stockx tag lol.

 

[the natural mystic]

On the verge of tears?

My toxic masculinity made me laugh at that.

Never let a job take you to that point.
