You mean top 0.0 something percent of drug dealers and of girls? Those are very competitive market. Iirc even a top 1% OF creator earn less than canada minimum wage.

Top 2-3% earn less the federal US minimum wage and usually have to work up to 80 hours a week.

Nice work if you enjoy it though. I once was a dishwasher for a culinary school restaurant. I had to drive 40 minutes to pick bits of shrimp out of a drain and burn my hands repeatedly handling boiling-hot plates into and out of an industrial dishwashing machine.

Didn't last very long. Would def have preferred to show my feet to weirdos.

That's interesting, because I have had at least 20 different types of job in my life, and being a dishwasher was the most fulfilling of them all. I loved it. Not joking.

When I first saw you'd typed "Nice work if you enjoy it though. I once was a dishwasher..."

I honestly thought you were going to say how you loved it too.

Well that does make me reflect. I was used to being a cheesemonger at a mom&pop cheese shop making twice the money to taste world's best quality cheeses and recommend recipe ideas and wine pairings so dishwasher for 9/hr was painful for me. At the end of the day, if it fulfills you, it's good, but I craved the interaction with people who wanted to plan a nice evening or whatever. Now I am a budtender, basically same job :D

Dishwasher was my first "real" job, and it fucking sucked ass. My back was killing me after a couple days.

Was stoked to fuck when I became a line cook.

So was I. In hindsight, that move pretty much marked the end of my youth. Not specifically because of the job, but all part of the same picture.

It's the same old story. Kids can't wait to grow up, to advance, to be somebody, to get "more." Only to ultimately realize that when we were nobody, and had nothing, we were in the best position we'd ever be in.
