Says the losing team . <| sep |> I was partially joking . But it ' s simply stupid of any country then to take in any Russian immigrants . Why make yourself vulnerable to a Russia just wating to put one in your ass . Simply put , this makes Russians a negative externality to any country . <| sep |> Oh yes hard times ! I remember many weeks of living with my grandma and eating ramen noodles every day haha besides when she cooked me dinner . I ' m still actually in the process of switching , and I am currently in a union to supplement myFunds to save and live comfortably until I can fully rely on my career as an audio engineer . What I can tell you is , don ' t switch your career immediately , unless you have balls of steel and a very charismatic and positive personality . I have a theory that through hardship and suffering you learn the fastest if you have integrity , and can work with anything you have in front of you . Make sure what you ' re doing is exactly what you want to do . Don ' t settle for less unless absolutely necessary . Make a plan , have two or three or 5 interviews set up . Wear a nice ironed dress shirt and pants and tie . Bring a pen , be prepared . If your next career requires a degree and you don ' t have the money for it , don ' t get a loan unless absolutely necessary . See if any businesses in that career path have certification courses that are free , and most of the time along with the free certifications , entry level positions will let you work to gain experience in the field as you are completing your certifications . Worst comes to worst , you don ' t have any good past relationships with your old bosses , and you don ' t have anyone to give you a solid proof of good work ethic , and you don ' t have a job currently , you can always join a temporary field there are many out there , examples intern , mechanic , general laborer , any average entry level factory and show up everyday either 15 minutes early or on time perfectly , and work your ass off . Someone will notice and you ' ll get promoted . Create good relationships , keep your word and you ' ll get a good rep no matter where you are . Ranted a little but wanted to give you my best explanation from experience . Haha
