Have you ever worked really hard? - GoFuckYourself.com

Farang · 03-01-2025, 12:20 PM

i mean really hard, something like all day and night with no days off for months on end; sacrificing social life, sleep and most other things?

what were you working on? was it a success? share a story

EddyTheDog · 03-01-2025, 12:40 PM

When I was a nurse, I used to do 72-hour weeks and that was HARD work - I can't even imagine doing it these days...

In my early 20s, yes. I didn't have a choice back then.

I was once a garbage man in the middle of summer. Lasted a week. Was my first real job, so I wasn't the driver. Days could last 15 hours, didn't matter. You got paid by the day, not the hour. Couldn't go home until you cleaned the truck you used for your route.

The things I've seen... smelled... and even tasted... in the heat...

I have all due respect for those people, but that life ain't for me.

Tried landscaping next. Not as bad as being a garbage man, but harder than it seems. Got chased by an alligator while trying to wack some weeds on my 3rd day and never went back. Quickly learned all these normal people jobs ain't for me at all. I was probably being dramatic, but whatever. Became an ebay seller, which ultimately lead me here in a way... was easy to transition from some of the skills I developed.

Hardest job I ever had was unloading metal containers in a warehouse in the summer humid heat for 10-12 hour days 5 to 6 days a week.

It was constant lifting and throwing boxes that weighed around 35-40lbs.

Each person had to unload an entire metal container by themselves in less than 1 hour.

It was personal challenge from my father who wanted to make sure I understood the value of an education. He worked in warehouses and as a truck driver most of his life.

I did something similar during my first summer break at university.

Absolutely mind numbing. And all my fellow workers (most of them working there since their teens) would talk about was their cheap once a year two week long vacation they'd saved up all year for. Whilst I was there, I saw a woman get her hands mangled in a machine.

I was from a poor background, so I had to do it out of necessity. I was at a really posh university, and most of my classmates were on vacation to exotic locations with their Daddies' money. When the people at the factory learnt I was at a top university, they started cold-shouldering me because they thought I was a snob trying to live like a prole.

Then I had to go back and face the private school educated Marxist poseurs in tutorials, talking about the exploitation of the proletariat whilst they looked down on me for being poor and having an accent.

Working from home doing SEO I am constantly up early - work late and weekends with very little time for family except for a few short hours around dinner time. I've rarely gotten out and to be honest when I went to Vegas I had to battle being out away and in groups. My car at times almost gets its tires flattened and battery running low because I don't use it or get out at all maybe to get a coffee but that's it.

Of course...!

Back in the early 2000's's's's I was writing software with a small team AND decided I wanted cam studios at the same time. We moved in to a loft, brought in cameras and servers, etc. We painted, decorated, repaired, argued with the landlady, all of that. Moved to a bigger place about 2 years later, then to a much bigger place a year or so after that. My team and I spent a whole week moving shit, setting up lighting, servers, cables, computers, desks... more painting, more repairs, more arguing with the landlord....

Crazy hard work always pays off.

Huggles · 03-03-2025, 09:12 AM

When I was 18, I got a job building trails at Mundy Park in Coquitlam. We worked in winter digging, by hand, 4-5 deep trenches and filling them with drain rock and layers of sand and other materials to build the hiking trails. It was rainy and cold as fuck, 8+ hour days, and the crew boss sat in the warm truck and if you were shivering, you were allowed in the truck to warm up. Of course, everyone caught colds in the first week and if you had the sniffles or a cough you weren't allowed to sit in the truck. We were given well-aged rain gear that had minor tears in it, just enough to let the water in!

I did that for 3 months because I was kicked out of my house when I was 16 because my father was such a huuuuuuuuge asshole post-divorce, so I had been homeless for nearly 2 years and basically couch surfing after dropping out of high school, so I needed to pay my rent.

90 days of that work was so horrific and horrible, and some single mom I was working with had a major breakdown on the job site and started smashing the truck with her shovel because she was soooooooo poor and that the $7 an hour barely covered her bills and it was the most extreme work possible for a woman in her 30's, me as an 18 year old muscular, strong man, the work was fucking excruciating and the fact that it was done in the cold and wet in the most humid forest, and basically all day you had these ice cold water drops ALWAYS landing down the back of your neck, and for 8 hours you would be alternating between sweating and freezing, and your hands were rough as fuck and your feet blistered with swamp foot from being wet constantly. Those 90 days was the WORST job I ever had. Funny... I got the job because I had a friend who worked it for 2 days and quit, but told me "oh they always need people!" so I showed up in the morning bright-eyed and bushy tailed, dressed nice with my resume printed out, and they handed me dirty rain gear and a shovel and then the crew leader, in the warm truck, marched us out to the middle of the park and showed us where to start digging. The turnover rate was so high, after 90 days I think I was the only one left from the original crew other than the shitbag crew leader who sat in the truck. Oh, and since I had no car, I had to ride my bike to work with a several hundred feet elevation rise with no paved road or trail, so I had to push my bike up a steep grassy incline by the side of the Lougheed highway... fucking bruuuuuuuuuutal life... you can imagine when I started making 10k USD+ a month in porn working an hour a day a few years later... that I thought I had won at life! Fuck for 15+ years shit was soooooooo good until COVID!!!

Once the weather warmed up, I quit that shit job on a Friday after getting my last pay, fuck that shit!

Then I was able to get a job working on a cranberry farm for +$4 per hour more, $11 an hour, which was sooooooo much more money, but the farm owner only hired boys and he used to whip his cock out and piss in front of everyone and make everyone super fucking creeped out as he would literally just whip his cock out and piss in front of you while making eye contact and talking, sometimes nearly pissing on you because he wouldn't even turn away while pissing. He wore a cowboy hat and years later when I first saw Max Hardcore, he looked EXACTLY like Max Hardcore.

I quit that shit job and went into installing high speed internet in people's homes for Shaw / Rogers, and that was such a massive step up, turned 19 and had a Mustang, money, and was bangin' chicks like crazy!

Same here. Even though I was in school, the guys realized I was poor too so they didnt give me that much shit. I drove a broken down Chevy S10 truck to work. And yes, most of my college friends spent their summers backpacking across Europe.

There was one guy working there who was a former college professor. Not sure why his life went from professor to warehouse worker. I think he did some time though. Most of the guys in the warehouse did some time.

But my father's experiment worked and I never complained about school or work again.

Huggles · 03-03-2025, 11:11 AM

Regular jobs are complete shit.

Doing moving gigs last year, the people I worked with were 70 IQ, and on the bigger jobs, you could take 4 movers and between the 4 of them, they might have 10-12 teeth in total between them all. They all smoke, drink Tim's, and watch hockey. All were super racist and fit every single stereotype of poor white trash possible. Those guys loved the job because it took next to zero brainpower and they could burn darts all day. Lift box, walk, put box down. Extremely mind-numbing.

A job where you have to work a solid 8+ hours and your brain is not stimulated with any challenges and you've got to slog through the day... add in the fact that your commute is like 1 hour long, plus gas, plus getting ready in the morning, then getting home when it's already dark... Your day is actually like 7-6 instead of 9-5. I've done it, but it is TOTAL shit... compare that to making 10k+ a month working 1 hour a day and spending your time reading on topics you like, riding your bike, doing hobbies, or just hanging out at the pub and texting chicks for when they're off work and want to meet up, much more fun!

There ARE some jobs that are really cushy, like politicians, certain sales and management jobs, real estate agent is also really easy from what I've seen... But, in general, so many jobs these days are complete ass!

Well there's no reason to be nasty, I think when you sold your Supra is when I bought my first 911.

I meant more what the OP was talking about. Grinding out trying to build a business and sacrificing sleep and social life for a bigger gain at the end.

Most people in adult did the bare minimum, enjoyed the easy money and work-life balance. I'm one of those, but that's not what this thread was about.

If you worked as hard today in online adult as you did at those minimum wage jobs, you wouldn't be broke. What's stopping you, fear of dry eyes?

The lack of mental acuity.

Everthing I witnessed and observed during the last 5 years, which we are basically at the 5 year anniversary of, my theory is that it fundamentally shook my view of the world and society to such a point that it damaged parts of my brain.

I lost all my ambition and stopped caring about everything, just got drunk and worked labour jobs like snow shoveling, firewood collection and delivery, moving jobs, auto repair, and other cash shit like that because I had no mental acuity at all, and a horrible temper if I wasn't baked out of my mind. I wanted to burn down the vaccination centres and had all sorts of nasty thoughts. I could hold it together around my kid, barely, because we just focused on arts & crafts, reading & writing, Five Nights at Freddy's, and teaching her how to cook. At 5 years old, with me watching closely, she could make egg with avocado on toast, and amazing pancakes. The flipping could get a bit messy though. If I didn't have my kid, I doubt I would have made it through COVID, for real.

Once they got rid of the vaccine mandate post-CONVOY and I was allowed back in the gym and pubs in April of 2022, I would get wasted at the bar and talk shit about the vaccinated as loud as possible! Holy fuck I lipped off so many people. My former gregarious and happy-go-lucky self was replaced with this pissed-off, mean stranger I didn't recognize. For like 3 years I gave the finger to every cop and cop car I saw, haha.

It does feel like my mind is healing now, and my alcohol cravings are definitely dwindling along with my consumption. Today I've been working all morning on getting my AI-powered compilation builder ready so I can (mostly) automatically generate videos for Adult and Mainstream.

Sorry for being mean!

I know 10k USD a month is nothing to the ballers here, but it was enough money and time that I had the beeeeeeest life and could do 99% of all the things I ever wanted to do!

adultdatalink · 03-04-2025, 11:49 PM

Right now, I'm pulling 18 hour days, but that will change soon because I know that I will burn out.

I was inspired by Jack Ma when he talked about the 9-9-6 schedule and how to compete with startups in the west. So I adopted that strategy in my own life and I've seen significant progress.

I have 2 jobs and a firm to run all at once, the caffeine gets to you eventually lolll.

But I'm in my early twenties so I think it will pay off by 25-30 If I invest properly, keeping go to the gym and keep on working hard.

SBJ · 03-06-2025, 03:27 AM

Back in the 90s before porn I worked a factory job driving a forklift for 11 years. At one point I worked twenty-five 12-hour days in a row without a day off or a normal 8 hour shift. I got so tired that I went out and bought clothes at Walmart, rather than doing laundry.

In the porn days back around 2006 I stayed up for over 72 hours rebuilding paysites online because the hosting company before we moved to Mojohost deleted all of our websites and then made a backup of the empty server.

Mojohost and Vacares have made my life so much less stressful over my years in porn.

Haha I just went to the webhost to see if they are still around and I kid you not this is what I saw and it fits them so well.

I was in my early 20s so I'm pretty sure I went to the bar and got drunk and then slept for 18 hours. After that summer they changed the rules that you couldn't work over 14 twelve-hour days, before they forced you to take a day off.

TheLegacy SEO Connoisseur Industry Role: Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: Brantford, Ontario Posts: 16,328	Working from home doing SEO I am constantly up early - work late and weekends with very little time for family except for a few short hours around dinner time. I've rarely gotten out and to be honest when I went to Vegas I had to battle being out away and in groups. My car at times almost gets its tires flattened and battery running low because I don't use it or get out at all maybe to get a coffee but that's it. __________________ SEO Connoisseur Microsoft Teams: Robert Warren SEO Skype: robjameswarren RobertWarrenSEO.com

We worked in winter digging, by hand, 4-5 deep trenches and filling them with drain rock and layers of sand and other materials to build the hiking trails. It was rainy and cold as fuck, 8+ hour days, and the crew boss sat in the warm truck and if you were shivering, you were allowed in the truck to warm up. Of course, everyone caught colds in the first week and if you had the sniffles or a cough you weren't allowed to sit in the truck. We were given well-aged rain gear that had minor tears in it, just enough to let the water in! I did that for 3 months because I was kicked out of my house when I was 16 because my father was such a huuuuuuuuge asshole post-divorce, so I had been homeless for nearly 2 years and basically couch surfing after dropping out of high school, so I needed to pay my rent. 90 days of that work was so horrific and horrible, and some single mom I was working with had a major breakdown on the job site and started smashing the truck with her shovel because she was soooooooo poor and that the $7 an hour barely covered her bills and it was the most extreme work possible for a woman in her 30's, me as an 18 year old muscular, strong man, the work was fucking excruciating and the fact that it was done in the cold and wet in the most humid forest, and basically all day you had these ice cold water drops ALWAYS landing down the back of your neck, and for 8 hours you would be alternating between sweating and freezing, and your hands were rough as fuck and your feet blistered with swamp foot from being wet constantly. Those 90 days was the WORST job I ever had. Funny... I got the job because I had a friend who worked it for 2 days and quit, but told me "oh they always need people!" so I showed up in the morning bright-eyed and bushy tailed, dressed nice with my resume printed out, and they handed me dirty rain gear and a shovel and then the crew leader, in the warm truck, marched us out to the middle of the park and showed us where to start digging. The turnover rate was so high, after 90 days I think I was the only one left from the original crew other than the shitbag crew leader who sat in the truck. Oh, and since I had no car, I had to ride my bike to work with a several hundred feet elevation rise with no paved road or trail, so I had to push my bike up a steep grassy incline by the side of the Lougheed highway... fucking bruuuuuuuuuutal life... you can imagine when I started making 10k USD+ a month in porn working an hour a day a few years later... that I thought I had won at life! Fuck for 15+ years shit was soooooooo good until COVID!!! Once the weather warmed up, I quit that shit job on a Friday after getting my last pay, fuck that shit! Then I was able to get a job working on a cranberry farm for +$4 per hour more, $11 an hour, which was sooooooo much more money, but the farm owner only hired boys and he used to whip his cock out and piss in front of everyone and make everyone super fucking creeped out as he would literally just whip his cock out and piss in front of you while making eye contact and talking, sometimes nearly pissing on you because he wouldn't even turn away while pissing. He wore a cowboy hat and years later when I first saw Max Hardcore, he looked EXACTLY like Max Hardcore. I quit that shit job and went into installing high speed internet in people's homes for Shaw / Rogers, and that was such a massive step up, turned 19 and had a Mustang, money, and was bangin' chicks like crazy! __________________ I make my money from people jerking off

Doing moving gigs last year, the people I worked with were 70 IQ, and on the bigger jobs, you could take 4 movers and between the 4 of them, they might have 10-12 teeth in total between them all. They all smoke, drink Tim's, and watch hockey. All were super racist and fit every single stereotype of poor white trash possible. Those guys loved the job because it took next to zero brainpower and they could burn darts all day. Lift box, walk, put box down. Extremely mind-numbing. A job where you have to work a solid 8+ hours and your brain is not stimulated with any challenges and you've got to slog through the day... add in the fact that your commute is like 1 hour long, plus gas, plus getting ready in the morning, then getting home when it's already dark... Your day is actually like 7-6 instead of 9-5. I've done it, but it is TOTAL shit... compare that to making 10k+ a month working 1 hour a day and spending your time reading on topics you like, riding your bike, doing hobbies, or just hanging out at the pub and texting chicks for when they're off work and want to meet up, much more fun! There ARE some jobs that are really cushy, like politicians, certain sales and management jobs, real estate agent is also really easy from what I've seen... But, in general, so many jobs these days are complete ass! __________________ I make my money from people jerking off

I was inspired by Jack Ma when he talked about the 9-9-6 schedule and how to compete with startups in the west. So I adopted that strategy in my own life and I've seen significant progress. I have 2 jobs and a firm to run all at once, the caffeine gets to you eventually lolll. But I'm in my early twenties so I think it will pay off by 25-30 If I invest properly, keeping go to the gym and keep on working hard.

SBJ So Fucking Fabulous Industry Role: Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: Indiana Posts: 11,375	Back in the 90s before porn I worked a factory job driving a forklift for 11 years. At one point I worked twenty-five 12-hour days in a row without a day off or a normal 8 hour shift. I got so tired that I went out and bought clothes at Walmart, rather than doing laundry. In the porn days back around 2006 I stayed up for over 72 hours rebuilding paysites online because the hosting company before we moved to Mojohost deleted all of our websites and then made a backup of the empty server. Mojohost and Vacares have made my life so much less stressful over my years in porn. Haha I just went to the webhost to see if they are still around and I kid you not this is what I saw and it fits them so well. __________________ Chaturbate - Make tons of money from Cams! *Name Silo - Domains under $9 and free ID protect*
