I have a small stall where I make the minimum wage equivalent in my country per day, but the last 3 days I sold nothing, only enough for transportation, lunch, bathroom usage, all the expenses of a regular day at job but no profit

How long do I stay until I lose all hope

going to follow up on this because the audacity of your post is just overwhelming.

you're just reselling goods at a markup, contributing nothing to society except for stealing potential revenue from the stall next to you, while preventing the space you're occupying from being used for something actually worthwhile.

and you not only want to get a free ride in life from that, covering literally all of your expenses, but you want a profit too!? holy fuck the greed is overwhelming. I bet you want to buy a motor vehicle with those profits and pollute the world around you like you pollute the markets and this board with your selfish desires.

god damn op.

wait, what?! you have *two* spaces? many pajeets live in their stalls. maybe if you lived within your means like everyone else... but no, you're better than everyone else, you need *two* spaces, and if no one wants to entertain your extravagant lifestyle, you're going to shit up this board?

see, I work from home (one space, unlike greedy fucks like you), doing actual work instead of just throwing up a stall which is basically begging. I could teach you a thing or two, but your greed and selfishness blinds you so it would be a waste of time.

You are a fucking asshole, mate. It's /biz, not /b.

OP, I don't know, it seems like maybe the location isn't great, too much competition? Or you are selling what everyone else is selling?

no, I'm just saying it like it is. we don't need endless street vendors selling marked up goods or hand made trinkets to white tourists.

he should at least get a factory job, but he's too good for that and needs to be a "business owner".

The only competition comes at the weekends, must of the week is all free for me and there are good days where I fill my daily quota but these last 3 days I sold basically nothing, just enough money to keep the stall going but nothing for me

I knew that kind of gamble was going to happen when I set it up and there would be bad days but 3 days going raw on the fucking in my ass so soon makes me rethink how viable it is

There are some things I can do better
I was working on a better sign, basic stats like keep track of the human traffic and get the means of people buying the most in certain times and places, etc

Is just that is such a kick in the balls to think you are all set up and will get maybe a bad day every few moons where I sell like 5% of my daily quota or something like that, not absolutely nothing 3 days straight, much more so after such a lucky strike where I sold enough to buy myself a lot of physical copies of books I want and other luxuries and then come back the next days just to be met by Gods middle finger

>>15191592
If I could live in my stall I would but it's in the open and ilegal

Even if I did hoping the police wouldn't inforce rules like that in a wagie, I don't want to be at the mercy of vandalism

>wastes his stall begging "profits" on luxuries
>cries when he runs out of people to suck off for the week

you could just get a real job and stop pretending that begging tourists to buy your trinkets out of pity is a viable occupation, op

keep trying OP. don’t listen to ppl on /biz, they have no soul. I hope it gets better for you.

one thing I don’t understand. your English is great, but you’re doing minimum wage work trying to sell physical goods? i live in a SE Asian country (I’m a white dude from USA on a business visa), and I see so much opportunity for a local person with English skills to help foreigners like me, yet I see college grads working in coffee shops. even right now I would pay somebody the equivalent of a month’s minimum wage here just to help me get some furniture purchased for my condo. I’ve been without a kitchen table, a bed frame for two rooms, and a couple other pieces for almost a year just because dealing with the language barrier is such a hassle and I want something slightly customized. (getting custom furniture built here is cheap, but explaining what I want, though simple, is impossible.) that’s just a random example.

anyway, i was just wondering if there was any way your good English skills could be combined with your store, or even used totally differently, to make more money than you’re making now.
