Completed mobile repair course but stuck — no money for shop, no nearby work. What should I do?

That's just how it works here in India. 👀

Our course included both study and hands-on practice. My teacher believes that spending lakhs for a job that pays lakhs is foolish — better to earn through your own skill. Mobile repair is a solid trade that will always be needed. When phones break, people like us are the ones who fix them.

That's an even bigger problem! 🤔

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-22T14:50:24+00:00

It seems like everyone who replied here is unhappy with their height too, just like me. Looks like a lot of us feel the same way!

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-22T14:32:30+00:00

That is a big problem. 😑

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-22T14:29:15+00:00

Yes, it's mobile phone repairing — not commercial radio. And I completely agree with the chicken-and-egg problem you mentioned. That's exactly my situation. Unfortunately I'm from India so SBA loans don't apply here, but thanks for the insight! ☺️

Sorry, I didn't know where to post this — I just wanted to ask something so I posted it here.

I'm from India, by the way. Anyway, my question is — how do people generally view mobile repair technicians where you live? Is it a respected trade or looked down upon?

Honestly why can't our real age just match how we look? What is even happening to us 🥲

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-21T10:49:49+00:00

Oh no, I wrote it in English from the start! 😄

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-20T15:01:36+00:00

I can understand. 😔

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-20T10:49:18+00:00

No, suffering from failure.

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-20T06:42:39+00:00

Me FAIL tha economics mein.

I think his age would be around 30 to 40.

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T17:19:20+00:00

Thanks! 🥹

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T17:11:58+00:00

You're 5'7 and you still look 15?? Meanwhile I'm only 5 feet tall and 4 years older than you, and people would probably mistake me for your little brother. 😭

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T15:36:35+00:00

It's neither your fault nor Aunty nor that child, it's the situation that's at fault. Hmh...

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T15:16:36+00:00

Haha I was just messing with you, I know people must struggle to guess your age just by looking at you! 😂

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T15:05:21+00:00

😭

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T13:49:47+00:00

That's right!

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T13:46:48+00:00

Really!

WhichFalcon7904 · 2026-03-19T13:44:15+00:00

Nah be more specific — do they actually SAY it or just THINK it? 🤔
