Almost had a job - was all but hired, but whoops! I’m a gay trans man, should have considered that before I had hopes of being able to pay back my college loans.

What would be a realistic plan for driving straight down south to Mexico City and just knocking at every school door saying “¿necesitas maestro?” Or really, I’ll stop at the first city with access to testosterone and maybe a nice gay night scene.

I assume security going into Mexico is a lot easier to clear than the other way around? Visas probably cost money I don’t have LOL

    I work at one currently. In the IT department. People that do it arent bad, it’s just a job. Some are more pushy than others, but overall they are just like you and me trying to make a dollar.

      I appreciate that explanation, but I wouldn’t do it. I wouldn’t feel right about myself. You do you, but I could never do that, and I’m a US combat veteran. I wish I wasn’t, but here we are. So I get it, but…

        Oh, I agree. I would not be a collector. It’s a terrible job, but the advantage is the bonus. Some people just fill a seat, make their hourly rate, and don’t push the issue.

        It’s soul sucking, but they are just humans. Most have no skills other than sitting on the phone all day and talking. They are terrible at tech lmao.

        We will lose them as a client soon, and they will be someone else’s problem. They are cheap af too but make BANK as a company. Somewhere in the range of 1 mill a month.

      I believe in the Buddhist concept of “right livelihood”–one should not make their living to the detriment of others.
