2000-2001
FFG tells 2 different stories about her first job. In the hard-working-immigrant story, she went to work at 16, bc that's what you do when you're raised with a strong work ethic. Alternatively, her first job is after high school graduation (say, a month or two later or so), and her parents make her get this job (else, go to college) rather than just lie around the house (
post, see Sec. 2.3).
Bottom line, she claims to be working at a convenience store in walking distance from her parents' home, 5 AM shift.
2003/2004--???
(Unless noted otherwise, see
post )
FFG has claimed she met her first serious boyfriend at 19 (he's 29), apparently while the two were working at Chalet Bar-B-Q. (I believe she has said her brother also worked there at some point.) People from FFG's Discord report that she also claimed to be selling drugs during this time, using his car (as an unlicensed driver) while he works weekend double shifts (see
post).
Aspects of this story are consistent with other stories she's told -- (1) that she sold drugs as a teenager, (2) that she met a long-term boyfriend through work, (3) that she met the boyfriend at age 19/20, (4) that the boyfriend was 10 years older, (5) that she borrowed the boyfriend's car and drove around, despite not having a license.
At this point, 2 narratives diverge.
In
Narrative #1 (i.e., the YouTube narrative), FFG moves into the (Egyptian) boyfriend's home. She lives rent-free here, as he owns a separate property, which he rents out, and the income from that pays for their expenses. They live together in a Montreal neighborhood until 2011/2012, when he dumps her. She becomes an alcoholic.
This is also the ex who either knew Nader or knew
of Nader, depending on the surviving vlog/stream. (For more info, see
post.)
In
Narrative #2 (i.e., the Twitter narrative), FFG moves to Chicago in 2001 and lives there for 10 years. Despite this, she will later show herself to be profoundly ignorant of issues such as American healthcare, the education system, etc. This claim is made in an attempt to dunk on Ron/Negz, as she claims that her American taxes paid for his welfare benefits (
post).
FFG is not explicit about
where she works during this time. Elsewhere, she has claimed to "have worked in manufacturing [her] whole life... plastic bottles for the pharmaceutical industry… food manufacturing…. manufacturing of finished goods for the home…” (

I don't know whether she has. I have my doubts. It seems odd one would move from one job of this sort to another within 8 years, unless she is not very reliable. I also don't know whether these sorts of factories are in Chicago; they are absolutely in Montreal, though.
2011
In 2011, FFG is working at a Montreal grocery store bakery. She confirmed the job in livestreams. She says it was never full-time work, and that she was essentially destitute. She begins dating evil-but-hottie Mourad (which runs through 2019), and this also marks the beginning of the evictions era (which, so far as we know, run through 2016).
2013
FFG claims to begin working at her current factory job, where she meets Mr. FFG, who may or may not exist. This job involves working with metal, though she does not weld. It also somehow involves lots of math. Bc this job is so physically demanding, she ends up with ripped arms and legs ("steel-like"). She is also given the nickname "little boy butt."
2020
In fall, she enrolls in some sort of college accounting/bookkeeping program. If this story is true, it's an associate program, given that it wraps up 2 years later or so. She has also stated she was never enrolled in a university.
2021-2022
FFG's job status has been a talking point in the thread since 2021 (e.g.,
post). Early on, she's putting out content with such frequency (videos, streams), it's unclear when she has time to work/attend classes/polish off her daily handle of vodka or gin/"green out" (e.g.,
post).
She gets into it with Ron/Negz during this time, and he threatens her channel, including copyright striking her. FFG's defense is that she has a job that is "un-fuck-with-able," that she is her own CEO or something to that effect. She submits an address per Negz's claim, which is for a PO Box in Montreal. Unsurprisingly, nothing comes of the strike, and Ron loses his channel (for unrelated reasons).
2024
Speculation RE: FFG's job status has, of course, continued (e.g.,
post). More recently, there was talk of her having been suspended/terminated for chasing an employee around the facility.
For me, the evidence of her not having a proper job would be (1) her declining health (I simply don't think she's up for 8 hours of on-her-feet manual labor); (2) the lure of the YouTube coin (see Zachary Michael); (3) her streaming availability (evening streams, sometimes followed by late night Twitch streams, as she smokes herself unconscious); (4) her nails (I seriously doubt manual labor would permit the risk of hand injuries due to long fingernails).
Stray, very stray thoughts
Was she ever in manufacturing? I'm not necessarily convinced. FFG has demonstrated a pattern of shaping herself to her environment. She is the perfect panderer for Gorl World -- a wide-mouthed vessel, waiting to be filled.
She's the
