Despite being in his thirties, Chance has never held any form of employment before, being a complete NEET for over a decade at this point. Even [[Chris Chan]] and [[KingCobraJFS]] were employed. | Despite being in his thirties, Chance has never held any form of employment before, being a complete NEET for over a decade at this point.

Cyraxx doesn't get a job due to him not needing one because his caretakers are paying for everything as well on top of not encouraging him getting any sort of employment, even from a disability service. As a response to Marty asking why can't Cyraxx get a job to help with bills during a phone call with him, Sally replied that he's trying to get a job online but he was unable to find one because of the trolls (as when Cyraxx accomplishes anything, he immediately brags to his trolls about it and they ruin it). When asked why he can't just get an entry-level job or a job offered by an employment program for disabled people, Sally replied that "if he loves what he does, he'll never work a day in his life."{{CitationNeeded}} | Cyraxx doesn't get a job due to him not needing one because his caretakers(namely Sally) are paying for everything as well on top of not encouraging him getting any sort of employment, even from a disability service.

The only sort of "job" he's had were his [[Kick Saga|Kick]] channel, and him, [[Ed]], and [[Jake]] scrapping metal, as well as odd jobs around the house, which he does poorly.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYLxG8w_6qI&t=245s&ab_channel=TheDriftKingMusicBizMarty</ref> However according to Cyraxx, he claims that he is a [[Cyraxx's Music Career|musician]], online performer, online [[Drift King|racecar driver]], and mechanic despite never having any sort of training is any of those fields at all. He has technically made money off of these endeavors, which has granted him the grand total of $5.81. | The only sort of "job" he's had were his [[Kick Saga|Kick]] channel, and him, [[Ed]], and [[Jake]] scrapping metal, as well as odd jobs around the house, which he does poorly.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYLxG8w_6qI&t=245s&ab_channel=TheDriftKingMusicBizMarty</ref> However according to Cyraxx, he claims that he is a [[Cyraxx's Music Career|musician]], online performer, online [[Drift King|racecar driver]], and mechanic despite never having any sort of training is any of those fields at all.

Cyraxx's probably can't get a regular job as Cyraxx doesn't even have a GED, is 33 with no resume, has no marketable skills, gets thrown into extreme fits of rage, and is [[Appearance and Health|physically, intellectually, and mentally disabled]]. He could possibly get a job through a vocational rehabilitation service which works with disabled people doing non-strenuous menial labor such as sorting or organizing or painting fences, or he can possibly qualify for SSI, but not for much as you need to have a work history to apply for full disability benefits. | Cyraxx's probably can't get a regular job as Cyraxx doesn't even have a GED, is 33 with no resume, has no marketable skills, gets thrown into extreme fits of rage, and is [[Appearance and Health|physically, intellectually, and mentally disabled]].

His getting a job even at a grocery store is not likely due to a number of circumstances. He can't really count or do math, as previously established, so he couldn't be a cashier; he can't even clean or organize himself, so he mopping up or stocking shelves would be out of the question; and he lacks basic social skills so he could not be a greeter or helper in a store; so there really isn't any place for him in a business. This also isn't account for the fact that if he got a job, an army of [[trolls]] and [[weens]] would instantly get him fired, if he didn't already get himself fired by | Even factoring out his level of education (or lack of), Chance is too inept to even work any form of minimum wage job. His getting a job even at a grocery store is not likely due to a number of circumstances. He can't really count or do math, as previously established, so he couldn't be a cashier; he can't even clean or organize himself, so he mopping up or stocking shelves would be out of the question; and he lacks basic social skills so he could not be a greeter or helper in a store, in addition to having a nasty personality; he can't work in the gastronomy sector in any form or capacity, because he looks too hideous and is practically a walking health hazard; so there really isn't any place for him in a business. This also isn't account for the fact that if he got a job, an army of [[trolls]] and [[weens]] would instantly get him fired, if he didn't already get himself fired by pestering random customers or employees about [[MusicBizMarty|Marty]] and the trolls. | ||

Cyraxx forayed into many attempts to make money through alternative ways, namely streaming and selling art and music. Lolcows making money off of their infamy is not something that is unheard off, like [[Chris Chan]] who is now living off making and selling merchandise themed after his lovechild creation, Sonichu, or KingCobraJFS selling hand-crafted wands. As for Cyraxx however, it can be argued that he is far too despicable of a person (namely his reputation as a [[Rage|volatile]] [[Bigotry|racist]] [[pedophile]]) to garner the sort of ironic fandom that surrounds the two | Cyraxx forayed into many attempts to make money through alternative ways, namely streaming and selling art and music. Lolcows making money off of their infamy is not something that is unheard off, like [[Chris Chan]] who is now living off making and selling merchandise themed after his lovechild creation, Sonichu, or KingCobraJFS selling hand-crafted wands. As for Cyraxx however, it can be argued that he is far too despicable of a person (namely his reputation as a [[Rage|volatile]] [[Bigotry|racist]] [[pedophile]]) to garner the sort of ironic fandom that surrounds the two aforementioned examples, and that he is equally both too [[Intelligence|stupid]] and talentless to produce anything of value in the arts department. For instance, although the Sonichu comics were certainly not original and had terrible storytelling, its crude artstyle and the awkward interjections from Chris' eccentric life made it stand out among other bad home-made comics, to the point where it started seeping into the mainstream culture later down the line. As for Cyraxx, there is no heart or soul put into any of his creations; there is no appeal to stolen art and songs, screeching over music and AI-generated slop. Cyraxx only "works" for the fame and money, not the love of the craft. | ||
