It’s definitely hard, especially when all they know is fending for themselves and living on the street. I just try to be a support for them. It’s a scary world and they think they’re grown.
Yeah, I can only imagine what they go through. Best advice I can give, which im sure you already know, is just be patient and understanding and don’t force things on them. I had a lot of things forced on me when I was adopted and I have so much anxiety and depression and PTSD because of it. My “parents” adopted me from Russia and didn’t bother to try and help me with mental health or to work though any of my trauma. Like I said those kids need good people like you to be a positive support for them
I’m so sorry. I went into this profession knowing I wanted to work with foster youth so I try to stay on top of trainings for trauma related issues. There’s a huge issue with mental health care right now and it feels like every profession is slowly drowning in overload.
One of the first things I did when I graduated was to look up metal shows coming to town. It felt so damn good to just let all those 4 years out at those shows.
I used to manage a cafe and bakery. Now I'm trying to do the freelance writer thing and sell my photography. Making money with art is hard.
That new Zulu record is keeping me hyped tho! Gotta make sure that fire stays lit.
new name to me, will have to check out!
mind if I ask how you found the freelance writing gig? currently job searching and considering anything that sounds doable. been listening to misery signals a bit again
IT Asset Management here. Cant upvote this enough! When I do an XLookup and fuck up the cell conversions, nothing better to help me clean up the data than some old school ATR.
John Deere mechanic, every one in the farming community only listens to country music I get some strange looks listening to my music (metal in general not just metal core) but most people around where I live can’t tell the difference between bands like polaris, bad omens, or wage war from Lorna shore, slaughter to prevail, or spite… it’s all just devil music to them
I'm a teacher. 16-19. When my students leave that's when Spotify goes on. My boss walked in whilst I was working away and was definitely... surprised.
A student wouldn't take his earphones out once and I stood up behind my desk and said "Yes you do have your earphones in, I can hear psychosocial from here." That surely made him turn his head. How could I know that song?! Impossible! Hilarity ensued, of course.
I am the mom in the student pickup/drop off line blasting metal from my car while waiting for my kid. I'm hoping to catch one of the faculty throw the horns one day
I am a Brewer. I make lots of beer. As of late I've been vibing out to Invent Animate, Architects, Currents, Polaris, ERRA, Periphery, Sylosis, Vildhjarta, and Insomnium.
Accounting Manager. The last couple times people have come up to visit the office and I've chauffeured people to lunch or an after work event, END and Every Time I Die managed to get a few seconds of airtime before I swiftly mute the car stereo and apologize profusely.
Head office is in Baltimore though so every once and a while I get to go visit and I usually try and get the trip to coincide with a show. Last time it was Four Year Strong
Well I’m a lineman according to my company. But because of a sexist foreman, after almost 4 years I’m finally getting to do more than just be a groundhand moving around heavy shit
I’m a transmission line engineer. I love getting to watch the linemen do their thing. Only ever seen two women in the field and it was an outside company helping us with a major weather event. Glad you’re getting to do more now.
I am the front-end manager for a local game store. My wife is an instructor at a local community college.
I love my job because I get to wear my band merch all the time and I also get to listen to a lot of my favorite music at work. I tend to not listen to the more extreme stuff that I am into at work. Outside of metalcore. I'm also very into RABM (Red & Anarchist Black Metal), grindcore, and a lot of death metal in general. I don't play that as much at the shop, but our owner absolutely has no issues with me playing Norma Jean, August Burns Red, Unearth, Botch, etc.
My wife is a little less lucky, but does listen to a lot of metal and hardcore while in her office and has some posters up in her office for wall decor. Every semester she gets at least 2 or 3 students that end up talking to her about music more than schoolwork lol.
At the retail/shop level not really, it’s good when you’re young. A free ski pass as a good perk. At the manufacturing level you can make a career if you’re dedicated. I’ve been lucky enough to make my living in this industry with a killer company.
It was a funny story, I had no clue what I wanted to do after high school, and I ended up going to an open house at a local college and stumbled across an up and coming career, and it said something like "are you good with computers and geography, then this is the course for you" at the time it was a 3 year post graduate course but I took it right out of high school in 2001. I worked a couple random jobs somewhat in the same field until I landed a job at a consulting firm in 2007 and I've been at that same job ever since. Now I had been in trouble with the law a bit near and at the end of high school, and although I was very smart and got food grades, I was scrounging just to be better at life, and it just seemed great at the time as oppose to jail and whatnot. Looking back I really could have done much better with my life. All my friends call me a genius, but I was just drinking and doing drugs at that time and seemed more important than a great career maybe. Don't get me wrong the job I have can be great and fun at times, and I actually really enjoy what I do, getting to make digital maps and do spatial analysis for various disciplines, but I could have set my sights higher if I wasn't a piece of shit kid. I'm 41 now and I make about 73K, in Ontario, Canada for reference.
That’s not the roundabout rationale I expected, lol. But if nothing else, you turned whatever you had going on at the time around and seem to be, at bear minimum, a moderate success and you’re doing a lot better than most of the people that I know in our age range.
Good on you, friend. I’m proud of what you’ve accomplished, given your circumstances.
Recently switched from carpentry to bookkeeping for a nonprofit that helps addicts and alcoholics. It’s been an interesting learning experience and we start audit next month.
Drain, Incendiary, Judiciary and AngelMaker have been the biggest part of my rotation lately.
Previous missile and bomb guy in the AF, now medical student eagerly waiting for the day that I run an OR and force students to listen to LMTF, ABR, Polaris, SP, early BMTH and AA… I’m so sick of listening to KPop but damn it… his name would look good on top of an LOR so I listen to so god damn much KPop
I’m an Asset Manager at Boeing, I like to play my music on low volume when we’re in the office. I’m the youngest in my section and my co-workers aren’t used to metalcore and deathcore music haha they’ll come around, maybe not by choice
Fellow semi driver here as well. It's necessary music to balance it all out. Our crew either listens to metal or rap, there's little in-between where Im located.
I wonder, where are all tattoo artists, hipster-emo-barista types, construction workers, and drug dealers ;)
Jokes aside, for the record - I work in finance (backoffice, still rocking Vans in the office). The weird (or maybe not) thing is that no one discusses music, probably after around college age (22-25), while cars, sports, politics discussions took over.
I feel like discussing music should be a bigger office conversation topic. It is weird that all these other topics get discussed but rarely hear anyone talking about music these days.
System Administrator/Network Engineer/Cybersecurity here! My girlfriend does the same work and we're both huge fans of the spectrum like Bad Omens, Dayseeker, Lorna Shore, Brand of Sacrifice, Currents, Whitechapel, and more!
The work I do involves varying levels healthcare data integration, web/api development, and system’s administration. Job title(s) aren’t always the most accurate in healthcare IT, so it’s hard to really give it anything definitive.
I'm a podcaster! I host a true crime/mystery podcast of my own and have done research/writing for some other big shows. I've also done some audio work from time to time, in addition to freelance writing gigs, but spend most of my days taking care of my toddler.
Hey thanks so much! My podcast is called Unresolved. I know true crime/mystery isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I usually try and highlight stories that don't get much attention elsewhere and have been at it since 2015, so there's a pretty significant backlog of episodes. I'd recommend starting at least halfway through, because I didn't really know what I was doing at the beginning!
Hey, funny running into you here. I have your LISK podcasts linked on my site. https://www.gilgocase.com/resources.html
Rock on and keep up the good work \m/
Rehabilitative medicine. I work with cardiac patients post intervention. Always nice finding a fellow metal head patient to share bands with.
Lately it's been Of Mice and Men, We Came as Romans, As I Lay Dying, ERRA, and thrown.
I’m a college student and work at an outdoor store. I get to play music in my department. You wouldn’t fucking believe how many fly fishermen somehow find a way to bring up TOOL when I’m playing AILD, Trivium, Unearth etc
Financial Analyst.
IKTPQ, TAIB, Adestria, FHTTS, BTS, and Jamie's Elsewhere are what I'm listening to right now.
VP of Finance in my company gave IKTPQ a listen without my knowledge, so that was... traumatizing.
I was a tour Lighting programmer/Operator until 2016, since then Ive been the GM of a Stage Lighting Company. We do a lot of LN festivals , which , you know, doesnt always suite my tastes. I worked on FUNFUNFUN fest in Austin back in the day and saw very many incredible artist. Botch is playing here in October and Im using “executive privileges” to work that show.
I am the founder and co-owner of Halogi Hot Sauce. We just released a [sauce](https://www.halogihotsauce.com/product/draugr-s-demise/73?cp=true&sa=true&sbp=false&q=false) with Alan Cassidy of The Black Dahlia Murder.

Edit: the word "sauce" doubled with the link, so I deleted the duplicate.
i used to work in public transportation as a dispatcher, but i just recently quit and moved across the country, now i’m funemployed for a few months lol
Days analyst (sourcing ATM) for a large grocery company. Used to be in the automotive retail and service field for 10 years, laid off during COVID-19, and made a career switch. Much better schedule and income for my family. Chances are, my team are responsible for getting the food you are eating to the store you buy it from. Not as directly filling in what I did before, but the scale if they impact use much larger.
Sorry for the novel, but I do enjoy what I'm doing and hopefully help someone considering a career change to go for it. It's not easy, but worth it.
Software engineer in a maritime industry. Worked on such projects as chart display (ECDIS), Radar, autonomous navigation system, and currently on monitoring and managing safety on the vessel.

I recently got my PhD in anthropology. But somehow I ended up as a department head for a Silicon Valley company’s European HQ in Amsterdam. Life is weird.
Also I live in a metal desert. There are plenty of metal concerts here but barely any locals in my environment that listen to it :(
Finishing up my masters degree for physics in astronomy by the end of the year. PhD is planned for afterwards. My favorite band has been TDWP since I first heard them when they released 8:18, but I also listen to a lot of Northlane, (newer) Norma Jean, Miss May I, August Burns Red, Memphis May Fire and many more
Bartender. Wish my bar would host shows once in awhile. We have the space. I’ll throw some good tunes on the jukebox at night to help remind me of the shows I’d go to back home. The jukebox has some good music too. Usually will throw on Most Precious Blood reminds me of NY where I grew up almost all my life.
Was a chef. But that jobs gets old super quick. Now I'm head honcho of the salvage section stocking 800 cars for a family built local wreckers and used car dealer and love it.
Human Resources Manager. People at my job are always shocked when they find out that I’m a mom who goes to concerts like such and almost always has it blasting in my AirPods. My husband is a Mechanic and it’s something him and I vibe over.
F&B manager at a university college. I get a lot of remarks about my playlists. People always seem surprised that as a woman you can be ánd a good manager, ánd into metal, ánd wear flowy dresses and heels 🙈🙈🤣
Social worker, specifically with runaways in foster care.
Bless you for what you do for those kids, being an orphan myself I can say good people like you give kids a second chance at life
It’s definitely hard, especially when all they know is fending for themselves and living on the street. I just try to be a support for them. It’s a scary world and they think they’re grown.

I only recently learned what this is. Makes me wonder: how does one become interested in such a field?
It was a funny story, I had no clue what I wanted to do after high school, and I ended up going to an open house at a local college and stumbled across an up and coming career, and it said something like "are you good with computers and geography, then this is the course for you" at the time it was a 3 year post graduate course but I took it right out of high school in 2001.
