How I got jobs at 17 with no experience (and why I stopped giving a fuck)

So basically, I’m 17 years old, I recently finished school, I live in Australia, and I had zero job experience.
Like literally none. No work history, no resume, nothing.
But I still needed money, obviously.
The problem was: every employer only gives a fuck about experience.
And when you’re 17, you don’t have any. So you’re basically stuck in a loop of “need experience to get a job, need a job to get experience.”
So here’s what I did.

1. I realised employers don’t give a fuck about “potential”

I tried being honest for 2 weeks.
I applied to Seek, Indeed, Jora, basically spam-applied like a desperate NPC, and got absolutely FUCK ALL back.
Not even a rejection. Just silence.
That’s when it clicked:
Employers don’t care if you’re a good worker. They care if you look like a safe hire.

2. I lied on my resume (yeah I know, shut up)

After getting zero replies, I decided to just lie.
I put down some well-known stores in Australia like:Officeworks,KFC,Red Rooster
Just to make it look like I wasn’t some random kid with nothing.
And guess what?
Suddenly employers were replying.
Funny how that works.

3. I got a supermarket job… but the pay was fucking horrendous

I finally got hired at a supermarket and thought, “yeah I made it.”
Then I saw the pay.
I was getting $16.50 an hour… which is basically dogshit, especially in Australia.
So I quit.
No regrets.

4. I found a warehouse job paying a fuck ton

Straight after, I found a warehouse nearby that needed people ASAP and it was paying $37 an hour.
I was getting shifts every fucking day, 8 hours each shift.
For a teenager, I was making alot of money
Like I thought I was set for a couple months

5. Then I got fired 💀

Yep. Got fired.
Not gonna lie, that shit humbled me real quick.
After that, it was back to the same old problem:
job drought
No shifts, no work, no money.
I was unemployed for like 2 weeks, and I started thinking:
“Why the fuck don’t I just apply only for warehouse jobs and drag the experience?”

6. I stretched the truth and it worked again

My first warehouse job only lasted 2 weeks, but on my resume I stretched it to 2 months.
And guess what?
It fucking worked.
I ended up landing another warehouse job at some furniture place.
And yeah… that’s the fucking story.
Final thoughts

Is it ethical? Maybe not.

But I learned something important:
Having “experience” on paper matters more than reality.
Employers don’t care about your struggle. They just want someone who looks like they can do the job without them taking a risk.
And when you’re young and broke, sometimes you just do what you gotta do.

SO YEAH FAKE YOUR FUCKEN RESUME GUYS ESPECIALLY IF YOUR DUMBASS IS APPLYING TO SHIT JOBS THEY DONT CHECK REFERENCES

Have some imagination. You pick up items and ready them for shipping. Scan them, bag them, put them into conveyor lines or directly into trucks. It depends on where you're working, all experiences will be different.

No need to be mean about it, dickhead. I figured as much but There are some warehouse jobs where you are required to do some other things like transporting the goods itself.

That's exactly the reason for the question, Don't give me that shit

Well fuck right off retard, if you're not arsed to do some basic thinking and google searches you deserve no apparent sympathy. Quit being a retard on this forum and get a job, you're just wasting everyone's time. This is a bottom of the ladder type of job, it requires no qualifications but strength and desperation, prostitution maybe the next worst thing. If you need to go running around asking questions about this just :forcedsmile:


Die.

Sure, a job is safe and easy. But at your age starting a business carries little to no risk, it also can earn you thousands. I think during teenage years everyone should consider some sort of entrepreneurial endeavour.
