Are you bragging about this?
I told my boss he was a moron
I said that women don't get paid less than men and the female boss, who was also a moron, and her lesbian friend made sure my contract wasn't renewed
And I didn't get vaccinated.
There, 3 (three) times I was fired. I have always been the most competent at my office and well groomed, clearly the competence was to my detriment.
>my bosses were morons
And yet instead of exploiting them for profit, you let your arbitrary emotional response get the better of you. You sound like a woman, AKA a moron. >I didn't get vaccinated
Well I can't really fault you for that one.
>And yet instead of exploiting them for profit, you let your arbitrary emotional response get the better of you. You sound like a woman, AKA a moron.
I made the decision I wanted. I'm not really into selling myself for money, AKA like you (a woman).
If having critical intelligent thinkers is a barrier to your organisation's success you have a shitty organisation. It's management's job to leverage talent, not try and crush it. But it's OK, you've never had a non-manual labour job so, whatever
I don't call people moronic and I'm a sociopath so I'm extremely nice irl even if I'm literally screaming in my car on the way to my job but Agreed. There is no room for critical thinking anymore.
I think women in the workplace was a mistake. It's a b***h to meaningfully climb now and pay overall is way down. This current job I accepted is 9 to 6 and they undercut my pay by 12k a year the absolute homosexuals.
I plan on leaving asap but every second here is hell and I started last week. What's the secret for a bachelor of science in finance to make the big bucks? Or get a comfy work from home job... ideally both
IDK how I feel about this movie, it kind of felt like it would have worked better as a 30 minute twilight zone episode because it felt padded as a feature film. Also I didn't really like the ending making it clear that he was just mentally ill and the office really was just a delusion he saw while staring blankly at a wall. It would have been better if left ambiguous.

this user wrote a script to have this posted 6 months after his demise, there's no other explanation for how it could be posted with the extreme risk involved.
Security guard here. This is the truth. However, employees are not allowed to leave with their stuff, their supervisor packs it for them and delivers it to them to carry out. Mostly so no disgruntled employee takes something they're not supposed to
Kek I got fired from my last job (line cook) because the place was majority chicks and they couldn't handle my bantz and also I was apparently a sexual harasser. Not sure if I agree with that assessment but whatever it was a gay job anyway. The funny part was one of the other cooks was a gay who was always coming onto me (I was even warned about him) and he could still keep his job so maybe he was sucking the owner's dick
Kitchen work politics can be a pain in the ass. The waitresses are lazy and constantly frick up tickets. And when they get bored, they invent problems to b***h about.
Last job I was fired from was for total bullshit reasoning they said it was because they had to cut employees because the higher ups were predicting that we are going into a recession but I believe they just wanted to get rid of everybody that was there before new management came in
Only time I was fired was because I just maxed out my competency and pay levels. My friend was telling me that whole year that we were next on the chopping block and I legit didn't care. Between my severance and my unused vacation and sick days I had 8 months of paid frick around money. Little did I know I could've got unemployment on top of that. Still stretched it out into a full year of neetdom anyway.
You go back a few nights later and take every single company owned power tool laying around. Maybe take the Hispanic coworker's tools too but they probably pack them up because they don't want the other hispanics stealing them.
>got fired from office job >They gave me 2 of these, unfolded >Had nothing in the office >Just folded one up and walked out with the other one in the box
It was a fun gag, made the guy that fired me laugh
Based. I was in a position of authority for a year at my job before I lost it and I had to fire 3 people. That shit sucks to do even when they deserve it. God I hated that job
I understand that, I wasn't mad that I got fired. It was explained to me that an algorithm fired me, I didn't under perform or get in trouble, essentially I was just deemed redundant. Could've been a lie to make me feel better, but I was fired out of the blue and everyone was confused when I was saying bye to everyone. I was a bit sad at first, but I collected unemployment for 5 months and just took it as a nice vacation from all the shit and got a job at a competitor.
I’m about 3 and a half months into my “vacation” and I’m getting low on money. I’m honestly considering doing DoorDash just so I don’t to deal with coworkers and can just listen to podcast while driving around all day. Idk how many people order food on it in my small town though
Pizza delivery job is more secure, you always get the hourly wage and you spend 3/4 of your time in your car. Sort of a trade of security for dealing with coworkers 1/4 of your time and never dealing with them with less security.
That’s not a bad idea either anon. I might just swallow my pride and try out both. I got 5 more months till I’m off my dads insurance and they are making a big deal about me finding anything for work
til you get cracked over the head from behind by some derelict who makes off with your $37
Honesty I don’t see that happening around here, knock on wood. It’s a small humble town where even most of the Black folk are pretty chill. Plus I’m a big ass guy and I’ve bought so much weed in the ghetto that a lot of them already know me

Frick these homies if they want you to use shit like your personal phone for work. Don't even buy a stapler. Walk in with nothing, leave with nothing but the contractually obligated payment due.
You were on the right track until the end.
Leave with anything and everything you want, put the stapler in your pocket, walk out with every pen and marker, take some snacks from the break room and maybe a roll of toilet paper for good measure. Frick these companies.
When I was younger working in factories I'd just be stealing shit from work and I don't know why. Most places I worked were already giving us too much free food I don't know why I felt the need to take random tools, gloves a boots home with me on top of that but I still have quite the collection of measuring tapes to this day
I want an office drama about young, competitive office ladies competing for promotions and bonuses where a central point of their rivalries is that every Friday there's an extremely long meeting all afternoon and it's hard for them to act interested, listen and pay attention and impress their bosses, while also holding in their pee, but they can't excuse themselves without risking falling in the social status game of the office. So they engage in underhanded things behind their boss's back, getting the new girl too much coffee so she nearly wets herself and has trouble paying attention, blocking the bathroom or pretending it's out of order except to their co-conspirators or people who bribe them or to curry favor or whatever, eventually the main villain(s) slip diuretics into a drink of one of the main competitors, probably the non-villain rival or the supportive best friend of the season one protagonist, and the season finale is her actually pissing herself/her chair in the meeting in front of the bosses.
Then season 2 she is no longer a major player for the promotion/keeps to herself in her cubicle since she is bottom of the social rung, and protag has to get back at the antagonist(s) and now the meeting is even longer for some reason, or is twice a week or something. And in one episode somewhere in season 2 there's a surprise all-day party that ends up just being a big long all-day yakathon for the bosses and there's lots of desperation and a few women either managing to pull off stealth pisses into something seen only by one other person, maybe their rival or some third party they'll then have to bribe or pay off or deal with or run favors for,and a few others pee just a little into their chairs but manage to slip down/up their overgarment so it doesn't get visibly wet, then somehow swap out the chair or do something so it's not noticed, before the bosses FINALLY call for a break of some sort where multiple main characters are on the brink of bladder failure.
I'm seriously considering quitting my job and just NEETing it up for a year, but I told myself that I'd get to the four year mark with my current job first. I'll probably not make as much in any new job I get either.
Dunno, having a white name helps with the prescreening process I guess.
Never had an issue finding a job, there's always plenty of those around despite what people say.
That happened to me. I came back from vacation and couldn't log in. Went to my supervisor and asked what is it about, he said to me that head of HR will talk to me in an half hour. Went on my workplace, talked with colleges and was on my phone until i got call for HR. Went to them, they told me i was fired and i signed termination contract and went home.
I work for a life insurance company. There's a puzzlingly large amount of attractive middle-aged women in my department, and I am not totally sure why, not that I am complaining.
Same, once I understand the job though, I always end up out performing everyone that works there, eventually that leads to me getting a ton of hours which leads to a massive burnout and loss of interest, which leads to me slacking off, which leads to coworkers and higher ups calling me lazy and unmotivated, which then leads to me quitting and beginning the cycle all over again. I even warn the dumb normos that I'm a slow learner and to please be patient as I'll make a ton of mistakes during the first few weeks and they still get angry.
In most workplaces there are fundamentally two types of employees. Workers and slackers. Slackers stand around talking all day. They make friends with each other and their bosses. Slackers love working with each other because it's basically just hanging out with friends. That's why they're the ones getting promoted. We look out for people we like, so the most important thing in looking for a promotion is making friends with the boss. If you manage to make friends in high places, sooner or later you'll land somewhere high up too. All the higher ups are socialite slackers- this is important to remember.
Workers are the golden goose keeping the business running. They're perpetually overworked and forced to do the jobs of 2-3 people alone. Despite this, nobody ever recognizes them. Out of sight, out of mind. You will only ever receive negative reinforcement because the only time interaction occurs is when you fail to complete your (unreasonable) workload. This cements you as being lazy in the mind of the boss. Despite being the hardest working and most productive, you are devalued in comparison to the social slackers. Why? The boss just likes them more.
The bottom line here is that the ability to make friends is more valuable than any kind of actual skill or work you could do. Networking is king. Make friends with a rich kid because his dad will hook you up with a six figure salary sitting around doing nothing because hey what else are friends for? No experience, no diploma, forget engineering or computer science. That's what they pay the workers (half your salary) for. You're just there to goof off and chat with buddy so that his time on the clock passes just a little bit easier.
The biggest thing I learned from my last job is NEVER work as hard as you can at any job. I tried way too hard to make a good impression at my last job, and did lots of stuff that I really wasn’t required to do. From then on everyone got used to me doing a lot of their jobs for them and when i finally decided I wasn’t gonna do other departments job for them anymore, they freaked out like I wasn’t performing my own duties and I lost my job a couple months later. The less you perform the less people expect out of you, just don’t get too carried away.
>From then on everyone got used to me doing a lot of their jobs for them and when i finally decided I wasn’t gonna do other departments job for them anymore
that's why you only do this if you have the ambition and aggression to pursue promotions and raises. you can definitely take on more work if you're going to your boss's office every 6 months and demanding a raise. in fact that's how you get regular and satisfactory raises. if you're just a loser who can't tell people no and doesn't have a long-term plan for everything you do (ngmi) then of course people are just going to dump their work on you. >t. went from $70k to $105k in 2 years through sheer aggression and mopping the floor with my "competition" (kiss-ass coworkers)
>t. Burns out at age 35 and starts a candle business.
Honestly though, getting raises just because you work more doesn’t happen in most firms.
There is a simple budget scale for your position, and no matter how much you put in, they are simple not charging the clients 30% more or shipping 30% more units because you got 30% more work done. The extra $30,000 (actually $50,00 if you include employer taxes and benefits) simply does not exist for your raise, and there is no space for a promotion till the boomer retires, and the middle manager takes his position, and that could be 10 years, by that time they might hire an outsider, to get someone with another firm’s knowledge, Becuase all you know is what everyone else knows at the firm by that point.
Glad it worked out for you, but it is terrible advice.

I haven't had the time or energy to do laundry in like 3 months, how the FRICK do they expect me to balance all that shit?
I always forget about this. For people that have a mountain of dirty laundry they can’t be bothered to get to it’s worth it to bite the bullet and pay $50 to have someone pick it up and clean it and get back to square one

Commute is about 10 minutes.
I just bought myself an extra ~7 hours a week.
It's like I'm working one day less than I used to.
Moving is entirely out of the question with how the housing market is right now. It is something of a minor miracle that I've found this shitty 0,5 room apartment, if I lose this I'm 100% certain I won't find another and have to register to a homeless shelter (which are also full in my city). It's fricking grim.
>I haven't had the time or energy to do laundry in like 3 months
I do manual labor and change shirts and underwear twice a day because I sweat a lot. There were times where I had no willpower to go to the nearest laudromat which is far from where I live so I spent weeks wearing sweaty and smelly clothes. You're not alone. I'm saving for a washing machine but the way of the wagecuck is brutal. I spent 6 months sleeping on a mattress and my appartment is still almost empty.
A normal washing machine is like three hundred bucks, how much are you making that you can't afford that? You'll quickly end up spending more on detergent than on the initial purchase.
It's just skill issue to be honest. I'm an alcoholic and owe money to the government because I'm on probation. I basically just fricked my shit up.
When I worked at McDonald's, sometimes they wouldn't have qny fresh t-shirts so I had to wear one that was worn and sweaty from some coworker during his shift last night.

What the frick, your employer should be handing you five shirts in your size that you now own. You must be living in a third-world shithole.
Lol no, it was a big McDonald's, like the third largest in my country. We had like +20 people working shifts, and if the people they hired to do laundry, you were shit outta luck.
Frick laundromats, even the ""nice"" ones are run down, mostly the fault of the average clientele (I'm referring to ghetto Black folk, white trash, and the illegals). >Juanita hogs all of the normal sized machines instead of using the bigger ones and pretends she doesn't know English if you tell her to frick off >Tyrone blasting music on his phone speaker and having a loud conversation right next to you >Old homosexuals insisting that they put one bill in the changer at and wait for all 4 quarters to drop before putting the next bill in because they think the machine is cheating them >Latchkey kids running around >Have to show up right after the super comes through and cleans the machines or all of them will have residue from powder detergent or someone's Clorox in the soap bin
I could probably afford a washing machine of my own, too, but the life of a rentcuck means I have no hookup for the machines
The best thing about not being poor is not dealing with low class people. The noise is the worst for me.
Even just spending a little more to shop at target is an upgrade.
In my area, yes. It varies by area.
It’s just slightly more expensive which cuts out the absolute bottom feeders. It is not great though, and getting worse.
I need advice from oldgays stat
I'm finishing up law school, but I p much coasted it all the way through and am terrified of being exposed as a coasting homosexual on my first day, so I've figured it's best to do something else entirely, maybe someplace where my coworkers will generally be relatively underqualified. My question being: how is the competence situation out there? are offices usually brimming with ultra competitive over achievers, or are there plenty of people like me?
Get over your imposter syndrome, take the bar and get a lawyer job. Okay, you are not going to work for a top 5 law firm or whatever with a low gpa, but still be a lawyer. You will get 300 rejections before you are hired, don’t sweat it. You will learn what you really need to know on the job.
Expect to change jobs every 2.5 years for a higher salary for the first 10 years.
The worst thing you could do is avoid being a lawyer for a year, .or not work. That would change your life for the worse, and would last the rest of your life. The first year is always the hardest.

Living with parents and working to save money is the current meta. I fricked it up by being a NEET until I turned 27 and then got thrown into the jungle with nothing.
Real estate is so fricked in Australia it's completely normal for mid-late 20s who have been working 9-5 for years to still live with their parents. I've even met married couples who live with one of their parents. But mostly when couples get married they try to secure a WFH job and move far away from melb/syd as soon as humanly possible. Basically a new wave of white flight. Meanwhile half a million Indians keep coming annually amd cram 8 into a rental while sending the money they earn doing ubereats back to India. Something's gotta break some day.
I'm living in state housing with $70k in my savings and I'm still not even considering buying a house. Mortgage on even a shithole would be triple my current rent and that's without considering insurance and repairs or that one big life frickup and it's all gone.

I did this once, didn't do laundry for nearly a year which caused me to develop a bacterial infection which in turn made painful and itchy sores appear all over my body, thought it was herpes at the time and was scared shitless until the test came back negative, never again.
Define household because no apartments in large cities have personal laundry hookups. Nice buildings might have laundry center inside though.
I don't even live in a big city but I've never rented an apartment/condo that had hookups, sometimes there's a wash center at the leasing office but the one I live at now has like 4 machines that never work.
But if we're counting people using a shared laundry room at their community/building as part of the 80%, it's bullshit, because they still cost money and have all the pitfalls of commercial washeterias.
There's nothing I don't understand or disrespect more than someone who doesn't love driving. Not even having a license, until you need one for work? I can't sympathize with you.

fix yourself
I mean it beats having to share an overfilled bus or subway with hundreds of similarily demoralized worker drones but I saved like 5 minutes of travel time, depending on traffic and technical issues.
All my stores and supermarkets are 10 minutes away from my apartment, so I barely use the car for anything other than driving to work.
>disrespect more than someone who doesn't love driving
Yeah me too. I just LOVE being confined to a metallic box! I LOVE my life being threatened everyday by the 1000's of NPC's I'm forced to share the road with! I LOVE being restricted only to where roads are built!!! I LOVE having to spend all my money on gas, insurance, inspections, just to go to the grocery store! I LOVE being forced to follow 100 different laws and restrictions over-wise my bank account will be raped or I will be arrested! All of that is so much better than simply walking somewhere!

>wtf don't they have a contract termination notice in which you still have to work for a few weeks
No, that seems absolutely crazy because if someone knows they're going to get fired soon then they'd do a half assed job at best and at worst they'd actively try to sabotage their company.
Yeah bro I'm going to frick up my references to stick it to some homosexual suit I'll never think about again. If they don't want you to come in they have to pay your next two weeks wages
People do dumb things out of emotion or spite all the time, just because you're clear headed enough to not frick up your future doesn't mean that everyone is. Lots of people would be willing to burn bridges on the way out just because they're pissed off.
Yes, this country is a literal prison, a hyper-capitalistic, bureaucratic, corrupt, and incompetent prison, and your cell mates will poke fun at you if you call it out for what it is.
Last job I quit, they gave me a stupid cardboard box, and made me do the perp walk-of-shame with security out of the building. I even gave a 2 week notice.
I gave a 2 week notice and they fired me on the spot. I would've filed for unemployment just to frick them over, but I already had another job lined up.
i accepted a long time ago work will always be total shit. sooner or later the repetition and depression kicks in no matter where you're cucking it. so i decided to focus on my commute and nowadays i leave work at 16:00 and get home at 16:10.
the commute sucks so much because i dread the entire time getting there and swearing at my steering wheel and plotting murders the whole way back
why do people choose to work at shit locations?
Like say someone is gonna give up and work at McDonald's or some chain, why do they choose to work at the biggest most busy one in the city which is 100x more difficult than the one up the road, for the same pay?
Because if no one worked at the busy stores, McDonald's would shut them down and then the slow store becomes the busy store.
The pay may not be the same if the stores are in different localities.
There's more hours and positions available at the busy store so someone who needs to work 40 hours a week but isn't guaranteed it would prefer the busy stores.
In many cases you're applying to the chain in general and all locations in your area can look at your application, you might only get an interview at the busy store.
Busy store is tougher means higher turnover, so they're more likely to be hiring.
They work were they're hired. If the McD down the road aren't hiring they can't work there. The real issue is housing, you should be able to move closer to work, especially if you're renting. Obviously if you live in the suburbs you're just gonna have to accept the commute.
If I were in that position I would honestly always rather wait until mcdS up the road is hiring it's almost impossible that one near by wouldn't be hiring shortly. I think people that apply to stupid locations are crazy
Never been fired but I work in service so it's almost impossible to get fired unless you literally steal out of the register. I wish I could work a real job though...
Obviously the people who work at McDonald's for a living don't have the luxury of sitting around not making any money. What are you, like 15?
If I were in that position I would honestly always rather wait until mcdS up the road is hiring it's almost impossible that one near by wouldn't be hiring shortly. I think people that apply to stupid locations are crazy
what because of their large luxurious houses? dunno about where you are but in the UK you can just sign on and the gov will pay your rent until and give you some money till you get a job. It's a shit life but the only way you won't afford it is if you live beyond your means. It's about more likely to me that all the people working at McDonald's make poor financial decisions

Shit that's easy, pick something you are mildly good at (for me basic IT and computer repair) and tell them you were running your own business doing whatever you were good at. If they ask details just say you need more money or business busted so now you need a job.
Only once and the guy who fired me really rubbed it in. He kept saying how disappointed he was in me, and when I tried to leave he blocked the door and continued berating me.
I guess I made him look bad because he also hired me. His standing in the office seemed to be slipping to me but I could be wrong.... was only there about a month. Another coworker cornered me one day and asked if I wanted to frick a third coworker without even a hint of how bad it looked/was to be having that conversation with a new person... all the people in that office were weird in the same way. A "close knit" team. Also they were Christians and all watched veggie tales.

My b***h of a manager threatened to fire me when I couldn't find the correct piece of adjustable shelving in the stockroom. Never mind the stockroom was a chaotic mess and I had just started, go frick yourself Amy you rude cow
Worst I ever got was the manager telling me that the job was not for me and it was a "soft" firing but really I was the one who quit - I could have convinced her to give me another shot if I gave a shit. It was housekeeping at a Mariott.
I never in my life want to work a job that I'm so rooted to that there's actually a box full of shit I need to collect from work instead of being able to simply not go in again
when you get fired for cause anywhere in the US there's going to be a manager or security guard following you straight out to the parking lot to make sure you don't break or steal anything
Bros I'm about to be 28 and have 15k in credit card debt and own nothing because I work in retail
How do I get a white collar job where people get fired with bankers boxes?
Should I study something like meteorology?
what do you do in retail? I would say just try and spin your resume in a positive light and apply for some low level clerical work. If you're not completely incompetent you can then move to a better position somehwere, or just try to outlast turnover and become a team lead and then maybe a middle manager
Currently I'm a shift supervisor at a large chain of home improvement stores, that puts me below the two department managers and the store manager.
I'm in the stockroom department as opposed to sales but all that really means is that I have to be there for truck every week.
It's a decent wage but lifting heavy shit and being on my feet all day and waking up at the crack of dawn is starting to wear me down.
What exactly is "clerical work" anyway? I've always been mystified by what people *do* at an office all day if they aren't direct salespeople, accountants or doing marketing. It feels like all of the job descriptions are vague and the titles meaningless and the requirements very high to be considered, considering they don't seem to have a real purpose.
it's whatever menial work the office needs done so it varies widely. Could be data entry, making phone calls, looking over documents, coordinating information or work with other departments, etc...
I was fired once because our company started hiring Poos.
Once the Poos reached management positions, they started hiring other poos to fill the lower levels. The Poos made working a nightmare for the Non-Poos and were actively working to get them to quit. Those who quit were immediately replaced by, you guessed it, more Poos. I held out to get fired so I could get my sweet severance. They finally did claiming I took too much time off for my lunch break. I didn't argue it, I took the money and ran.
Got another job in a similar field and found out that my old place is really going to "shit" because the Poos can't run it right.
What is your yearly % salary raise? Chances are that your bosses think you are a pushover that will never leave and thus give you the bare minimum salary raise.
Not that much, to be honest. It's a craftman's company, so it's like this pretty much in any other company in the vicinity. But we have an above average salary already, and I'm about to get into a leading position in a few years that I will probably keep for the rest of my life if the company doesn't go belly up.
I was one of the best at my shitty job, but I had been working there for like 8 or 9 years and I guess they wanted to get rid of me because I was somewhat of a "rebel" when it came to HR and shit. So, the HR new boss calls me and tells me some people had complained about my hygiene or something. I knew instantly it was bullshit because I had perfect hygiene, and they probably thought I'd get embarrassed and quit.
I was technically fired once from my carpentry job because my boss scammed a lot of people, took all the money and fled the country. We showed up to the shop with the doors locked and our work trucks gone.
He didn't answer his phone.
Didn't find out what happened for several weeks.
If somebody is really lucky they can turn 6000 dollars into 'frick you money'. That's not you. Most people make their 'frick you money' in real estate so if you want an actual consistent life path to aim for to attain money, do that instead of playing with crypto or stocks. "Knowing how to invest" isn't a shortcut to profit, nobody is going to give you enough stock knowledge in a post or thread or entire book to make that a guaranteed outcome. For now, hold your money and ideally add to it instead of trying to double it with get-rich-quick schemes and alchemy
I would have triple/quadruple my current salary if I worked the same job in the US, but movies and television shows have told me that you can get fired on the spot over nothing in the US so I always chicken out when I see job postings in the US. In my country, your workplace is forced to pay you for three more months after you get fired unless you get fired for doing something criminal or pose a threat to the company and even firing you normally is difficult for the workplace.
I make 140K working from home 4 days per week. It is very comfy because I can get a lot done independently. The one day I do have to go in, I usually go in a little late and spend the day socializing with coworkers rather than working. Through the work I've been able to do and relationships I've built at work, I've been able to triple my salary since i started working here 8 years ago.
the weirdest thing about when I worked was how norms literally turned their office spaces into some extension of their home. One woman literally had her own cupboard in the break room where she kept a pantry filled with cereal and shit.
Made me want to blow my brains out just realising how much work is literally life for most people and most people are completely content just droning on.
Hate to break it to you but work has always been the defining factor for people all throughout human history. We have our last names mostly from job descriptions. For the vast majority of our race, work is meaning. Doesn't really make that much sense anymore in the post-modern post-industrial world of automation and failing economies, but you know, old habits die hard.
I'm trying to get fired so bad. I just want a break so bad, very tired of labour.
But I don't really wanna quit on my own. But they love me there cuz morons work there and I can actually do my job.
Once I fricked up an order on purpose and they blamed a moronic guy instead. Felt kinda bad.
I felt the same way for a while. I NEEDED a long break from my job. I “quit” 3 months ago(they were gonna fire me anyway), and this is probably the worst I’ve ever felt. My parents were really the only friends I had left and even though I still live here I have probably said less than 20 words to them all week and I just spend all day thinking about how I’m gonna run outta money soon and how hard it’s gonna be to find another job and start all over for the 5th time. I gotta find something where I’m mostly alone.
With part time WFH, the office has become a public library. There's no permanent workspace in which to place your possessions. Nowadays, I imagine they would just take your company-issue laptop and tell you to leave.
My last job was a remote contract position. The contract was not extended and they never sent me any return info or packing materials to send their IT equipment back despite me sending multiple emails requesting it so I got a free Dell Latitude 15", Dell docking station, kvm switch, and Poly Bluetooth headset.

What the FRICK do they teach those morons
wtf everytime I go to the bank there’s at least one of those women standing outside smoking a cigarette. I think every woman that works there smokes cigarettes outside
I worked for the feds.. maybe they were extra fricking gay I know the job was and extremely cliquey. I was there for 7 months and that was my first ever frick up or issue ever.
Fricker in charge just fired my ass instantly after a meeting it was wild
Tbh I was a lot younger and I laughed when they said we need to have a meeting about this. I laughed and said "for smoking outside my bad lol my works done anyway" So they probably decided right then and there to fire me xd.
The boomer shall not be disrespected... the boomer is infallible and its greed and ego is earned. Us mortals have no hope
I was once in a position of power and I wouldn’t have had a problem with anyone smoking outside. Honestly if you laughed or tried to brush it off as not a big deal it would have made me pretty butthurt too though.
True that's called a fragile fricking ego btw. I run a team of 20 people and I truly don't give a frick what they say about me . And turns out they don't really say anything bad. Worst I got was a "can't wait to start lunch so I can sleep off this boring lecture" when I told a guy how to do his job.
I laughed :] those little power moves of i NEED respect. How dare you not talk to me as an equal! and protecting your ego is pathetic. It's not war. It's not a fricking battle where lives are at risk.
its a boring ass job where we all go home at 5 or 6 pm. Some guy making me feel a little not important is fricking irrelevant.
I hate your kind of ruler. I prefer my way.
Also let's me smash my female employees cause they think I'm cool.
Nothing you’re saying matters because if I’m in charge I would have fired you for laughing at me. You would have been used to make an example to other employees. I’ll put up with people being late, taking too much time off for being sick, or even just being shitty at their job in general, but I won’t take an attitude or backtalk from someone below me, or being lied to. I’d never speak to you that way so I don’t expect to be talked to that way either. If I’m in control, then I can handle you by removing you from my life just like that.

You are such a strong powerful guy. That's why you're still in a position of power right?
Kek I actually run a team. Having them scared of me is dumb as frick. I'm able to stop problems from growing into bigger ones because if they have any hesitation at all they get my advice. If they're having an off day a bad vibe I let them show it a little. And guess what.. they respect me so I don't actually ever get any back talk or whatever. If some guy doesn't think what he did was a big deal I'd simply remind them that it is. Making light of an issue doesn't mean you escalate it into a firing. That's why you WERE in a position of power and no longer are. Cause you're an ego fuelled Black person who gives a shit about what other people think of you. Everyone sees it buddy it's pathetic.

I'm finishing up law school, but I p much coasted it all the way through and am terrified of being exposed as a coasting homosexual on my first day, so I've figured it's best to do something else entirely, maybe someplace where my coworkers will generally be relatively underqualified. My question being: how is the competence situation out there? are offices usually brimming with ultra competitive over achievers, or are there plenty of people like me?
when I got fired I was given maybe 30 seconds to get whatever I could carry from my cubicle then escorted out. I left behind my calculator that I had since college, too, was kinda bummed about that.
in fact the only reason I was even allowed to go back to my cubicle and not escorted out directly from the manager's office was because I had left my badge there. otherwise I would have left everything.

Did you get fired because your poor hygeine or rapey vibes, or just sheer incompetence?

No that's if you have too high an iq. Not joking

There, 3 (three) times I was fired. I have always been the most competent at my office and well groomed, clearly the competence was to my detriment.

And yet instead of exploiting them for profit, you let your arbitrary emotional response get the better of you. You sound like a woman, AKA a moron.

Security guard here. This is the truth. However, employees are not allowed to leave with their stuff, their supervisor packs it for them and delivers it to them to carry out. Mostly so no disgruntled employee takes something they're not supposed to
I hate disgruntled employees, they're so whiney.
Kek I got fired from my last job (line cook) because the place was majority chicks and they couldn't handle my bantz and also I was apparently a sexual harasser. Not sure if I agree with that assessment but whatever it was a gay job anyway. The funny part was one of the other cooks was a gay who was always coming onto me (I was even warned about him) and he could still keep his job so maybe he was sucking the owner's dick
Kitchen work politics can be a pain in the ass. The waitresses are lazy and constantly frick up tickets. And when they get bored, they invent problems to b***h about.
>fired because your poor hygeine or rapey vibes
this is my goal
Last job I was fired from was for total bullshit reasoning they said it was because they had to cut employees because the higher ups were predicting that we are going into a recession but I believe they just wanted to get rid of everybody that was there before new management came in
Only time I was fired was because I just maxed out my competency and pay levels. My friend was telling me that whole year that we were next on the chopping block and I legit didn't care. Between my severance and my unused vacation and sick days I had 8 months of paid frick around money. Little did I know I could've got unemployment on top of that. Still stretched it out into a full year of neetdom anyway.
What if you don't work at a desk in an office, but on a construction site? Do you just carry an empty box home?
Every job has a room full of empty boxes just sitting around.
As a threat.
You go back a few nights later and take every single company owned power tool laying around. Maybe take the Hispanic coworker's tools too but they probably pack them up because they don't want the other hispanics stealing them.
Based on what ive seen your manager or the lead foreman or whatever they call them delivers you your final check and asks you to leave and that’s it
this. I got fired and they gave me a brown cardboard box to carry my stuff in.
>got fired from office job
>They gave me 2 of these, unfolded
>Had nothing in the office
>Just folded one up and walked out with the other one in the box
It was a fun gag, made the guy that fired me laugh
Those came out of your last paycheck.
No it didn't, I got paid the exact same each check all year round since it was salary, I got severance which didn't have deductions on it passed taxes
Hey everyone, it's Double Box Dave!
What a mad lad he is!
I would've rehired you on the spot just for that gag
Based. I was in a position of authority for a year at my job before I lost it and I had to fire 3 people. That shit sucks to do even when they deserve it. God I hated that job
I understand that, I wasn't mad that I got fired. It was explained to me that an algorithm fired me, I didn't under perform or get in trouble, essentially I was just deemed redundant. Could've been a lie to make me feel better, but I was fired out of the blue and everyone was confused when I was saying bye to everyone. I was a bit sad at first, but I collected unemployment for 5 months and just took it as a nice vacation from all the shit and got a job at a competitor.
I’m about 3 and a half months into my “vacation” and I’m getting low on money. I’m honestly considering doing DoorDash just so I don’t to deal with coworkers and can just listen to podcast while driving around all day. Idk how many people order food on it in my small town though
Pizza delivery job is more secure, you always get the hourly wage and you spend 3/4 of your time in your car. Sort of a trade of security for dealing with coworkers 1/4 of your time and never dealing with them with less security.
til you get cracked over the head from behind by some derelict who makes off with your $37
That’s not a bad idea either anon. I might just swallow my pride and try out both. I got 5 more months till I’m off my dads insurance and they are making a big deal about me finding anything for work
Honesty I don’t see that happening around here, knock on wood. It’s a small humble town where even most of the Black folk are pretty chill. Plus I’m a big ass guy and I’ve bought so much weed in the ghetto that a lot of them already know me
This happened to me but I wasn't fired I quit

do you have a job that pays advice 10k / year?
What do you do?
Kek, I remember jerking off to this shitty game as a dumb horny teen. Good times.
You were on the right track until the end.
Leave with anything and everything you want, put the stapler in your pocket, walk out with every pen and marker, take some snacks from the break room and maybe a roll of toilet paper for good measure. Frick these companies.
When I was younger working in factories I'd just be stealing shit from work and I don't know why. Most places I worked were already giving us too much free food I don't know why I felt the need to take random tools, gloves a boots home with me on top of that but I still have quite the collection of measuring tapes to this day

I want an office drama about young, competitive office ladies competing for promotions and bonuses where a central point of their rivalries is that every Friday there's an extremely long meeting all afternoon and it's hard for them to act interested, listen and pay attention and impress their bosses, while also holding in their pee, but they can't excuse themselves without risking falling in the social status game of the office. So they engage in underhanded things behind their boss's back, getting the new girl too much coffee so she nearly wets herself and has trouble paying attention, blocking the bathroom or pretending it's out of order except to their co-conspirators or people who bribe them or to curry favor or whatever, eventually the main villain(s) slip diuretics into a drink of one of the main competitors, probably the non-villain rival or the supportive best friend of the season one protagonist, and the season finale is her actually pissing herself/her chair in the meeting in front of the bosses.
Then season 2 she is no longer a major player for the promotion/keeps to herself in her cubicle since she is bottom of the social rung, and protag has to get back at the antagonist(s) and now the meeting is even longer for some reason, or is twice a week or something. And in one episode somewhere in season 2 there's a surprise all-day party that ends up just being a big long all-day yakathon for the bosses and there's lots of desperation and a few women either managing to pull off stealth pisses into something seen only by one other person, maybe their rival or some third party they'll then have to bribe or pay off or deal with or run favors for,and a few others pee just a little into their chairs but manage to slip down/up their overgarment so it doesn't get visibly wet, then somehow swap out the chair or do something so it's not noticed, before the bosses FINALLY call for a break of some sort where multiple main characters are on the brink of bladder failure.
That's 100% pisskino. Someone should fund it

I'm seriously considering quitting my job and just NEETing it up for a year, but I told myself that I'd get to the four year mark with my current job first. I'll probably not make as much in any new job I get either.
I do it every couple years, just to recover from my old job so I can start refreshed into the new one.
How can you be sure you'll even find another one so fast
Dunno, having a white name helps with the prescreening process I guess.
Never had an issue finding a job, there's always plenty of those around despite what people say.
>character can't suddenly log into his office laptop Monday morning
>receives a termination call an hour later
That happened to me. I came back from vacation and couldn't log in. Went to my supervisor and asked what is it about, he said to me that head of HR will talk to me in an half hour. Went on my workplace, talked with colleges and was on my phone until i got call for HR. Went to them, they told me i was fired and i signed termination contract and went home.

Same, once I understand the job though, I always end up out performing everyone that works there, eventually that leads to me getting a ton of hours which leads to a massive burnout and loss of interest, which leads to me slacking off, which leads to coworkers and higher ups calling me lazy and unmotivated, which then leads to me quitting and beginning the cycle all over again. I even warn the dumb normos that I'm a slow learner and to please be patient as I'll make a ton of mistakes during the first few weeks and they still get angry.
In most workplaces there are fundamentally two types of employees. Workers and slackers. Slackers stand around talking all day. They make friends with each other and their bosses. Slackers love working with each other because it's basically just hanging out with friends. That's why they're the ones getting promoted. We look out for people we like, so the most important thing in looking for a promotion is making friends with the boss. If you manage to make friends in high places, sooner or later you'll land somewhere high up too. All the higher ups are socialite slackers- this is important to remember.
Workers are the golden goose keeping the business running. They're perpetually overworked and forced to do the jobs of 2-3 people alone. Despite this, nobody ever recognizes them. Out of sight, out of mind. You will only ever receive negative reinforcement because the only time interaction occurs is when you fail to complete your (unreasonable) workload. This cements you as being lazy in the mind of the boss. Despite being the hardest working and most productive, you are devalued in comparison to the social slackers. Why? The boss just likes them more.
The bottom line here is that the ability to make friends is more valuable than any kind of actual skill or work you could do. Networking is king. Make friends with a rich kid because his dad will hook you up with a six figure salary sitting around doing nothing because hey what else are friends for? No experience, no diploma, forget engineering or computer science. That's what they pay the workers (half your salary) for. You're just there to goof off and chat with buddy so that his time on the clock passes just a little bit easier.
The biggest thing I learned from my last job is NEVER work as hard as you can at any job. I tried way too hard to make a good impression at my last job, and did lots of stuff that I really wasn’t required to do. From then on everyone got used to me doing a lot of their jobs for them and when i finally decided I wasn’t gonna do other departments job for them anymore, they freaked out like I wasn’t performing my own duties and I lost my job a couple months later. The less you perform the less people expect out of you, just don’t get too carried away.
>From then on everyone got used to me doing a lot of their jobs for them and when i finally decided I wasn’t gonna do other departments job for them anymore
that's why you only do this if you have the ambition and aggression to pursue promotions and raises. you can definitely take on more work if you're going to your boss's office every 6 months and demanding a raise. in fact that's how you get regular and satisfactory raises. if you're just a loser who can't tell people no and doesn't have a long-term plan for everything you do (ngmi) then of course people are just going to dump their work on you.
>t. went from $70k to $105k in 2 years through sheer aggression and mopping the floor with my "competition" (kiss-ass coworkers)
>t. Burns out at age 35 and starts a candle business.
Honestly though, getting raises just because you work more doesn’t happen in most firms.
There is a simple budget scale for your position, and no matter how much you put in, they are simple not charging the clients 30% more or shipping 30% more units because you got 30% more work done. The extra $30,000 (actually $50,00 if you include employer taxes and benefits) simply does not exist for your raise, and there is no space for a promotion till the boomer retires, and the middle manager takes his position, and that could be 10 years, by that time they might hire an outsider, to get someone with another firm’s knowledge, Becuase all you know is what everyone else knows at the firm by that point.
Glad it worked out for you, but it is terrible advice.
>Burns out at age 35
lmao, I'm putting in maybe 20% more effort and still outperformed all the normgroids in my department. you seem to think everyone is putting in maximum effort when in reality most people are just drones who show up and do the bare minimum. it's not hard at all to outperform these people.
Cool beans. How many hours a week do you work?.
Be a teacher. All you need is a bachelors in literally anything. You just take a competency test and you can be a teacher too!
You also get to see how absolutely skimpy high schoolers dress.

doing laundry isn't so bad if you don't live in an apartment complex and have to take a hike
Laundry costs like 10-12 bucks these days too. It's fricking ass.
Not in my country.
what country is that?
most laundromats will have a drop-off service where you can pay a bit extra and they'll do the laundry for you so you don't have to wait there
I always forget about this. For people that have a mountain of dirty laundry they can’t be bothered to get to it’s worth it to bite the bullet and pay $50 to have someone pick it up and clean it and get back to square one

Commute is about 10 minutes.
I just bought myself an extra ~7 hours a week.
It's like I'm working one day less than I used to.
Moving is entirely out of the question with how the housing market is right now. It is something of a minor miracle that I've found this shitty 0,5 room apartment, if I lose this I'm 100% certain I won't find another and have to register to a homeless shelter (which are also full in my city). It's fricking grim.
>I haven't had the time or energy to do laundry in like 3 months
I do manual labor and change shirts and underwear twice a day because I sweat a lot. There were times where I had no willpower to go to the nearest laudromat which is far from where I live so I spent weeks wearing sweaty and smelly clothes. You're not alone. I'm saving for a washing machine but the way of the wagecuck is brutal. I spent 6 months sleeping on a mattress and my appartment is still almost empty.
not the same guy but I only have about a week's worth of clothes so handwashing them in the shower isn't so bad
>handwashing them in the shower isn't so bad
That's not the issue, drying them is. I got no place to hang them, and even if I did, there'd just stink up with the smell of stale water.
Had a customer like you. You stink. Your clothes smell musty.
A normal washing machine is like three hundred bucks, how much are you making that you can't afford that? You'll quickly end up spending more on detergent than on the initial purchase.
It's just skill issue to be honest. I'm an alcoholic and owe money to the government because I'm on probation. I basically just fricked my shit up.
Grim. I hope things are better for you now anon.
>owe money to the government
Are you also 30k in debt like me? No?
Then shut the frick up, you privileged joker.
>He fell for american education system
Not my problem.
Nah, even worse: Rent debt. Meaning I'll never find a new apartment, ever. I fricked up big time.
I thought the whole point of debt maxxing
Is that you never pay it back, what’s the problem
The problem is you get a note in a debt registry, and if you apply for a new apartment, they see you got a shitty creditability score, so naturally they don't even bother sending you an incitation.
I’d live in a van before I ever paid back $30k tbqh
When I worked at McDonald's, sometimes they wouldn't have qny fresh t-shirts so I had to wear one that was worn and sweaty from some coworker during his shift last night.
>sometimes they wouldn't have qny fresh t-shirts so I had to wear one that was worn and sweaty from some coworker during his shift last night.
What the frick, your employer should be handing you five shirts in your size that you now own. You must be living in a third-world shithole.
Lol no, it was a big McDonald's, like the third largest in my country. We had like +20 people working shifts, and if the people they hired to do laundry, you were shit outta luck.
>like the third largest in my country
Yup, third world shithole.
>and if the people they hired to do laundry, you were shit outta luck.
Didn't show up*
>Sweat a lot
Lose weight and reduce salt intake.
I'm in shape. Sorry I don't work in a cuckbox sending emails at some office like you.
Is that supposed to be a negative? Comfy office jobs are great.
This is a female job. You're a joke.
Nothing masculine about being a cripple with back pains in your 50s either.
I'm a gardner. I don't wear panties tho.
Frick laundromats, even the ""nice"" ones are run down, mostly the fault of the average clientele (I'm referring to ghetto Black folk, white trash, and the illegals).
>Juanita hogs all of the normal sized machines instead of using the bigger ones and pretends she doesn't know English if you tell her to frick off
>Tyrone blasting music on his phone speaker and having a loud conversation right next to you
>Old homosexuals insisting that they put one bill in the changer at and wait for all 4 quarters to drop before putting the next bill in because they think the machine is cheating them
>Latchkey kids running around
>Have to show up right after the super comes through and cleans the machines or all of them will have residue from powder detergent or someone's Clorox in the soap bin
I could probably afford a washing machine of my own, too, but the life of a rentcuck means I have no hookup for the machines
Some apartments have hookups. But not anywhere lame like new york
The best thing about not being poor is not dealing with low class people. The noise is the worst for me.
Even just spending a little more to shop at target is an upgrade.
Is Target a fancier store than Walmart?
In my area, yes. It varies by area.
It’s just slightly more expensive which cuts out the absolute bottom feeders. It is not great though, and getting worse.
Get over your imposter syndrome, take the bar and get a lawyer job. Okay, you are not going to work for a top 5 law firm or whatever with a low gpa, but still be a lawyer. You will get 300 rejections before you are hired, don’t sweat it. You will learn what you really need to know on the job.
Expect to change jobs every 2.5 years for a higher salary for the first 10 years.
The worst thing you could do is avoid being a lawyer for a year, .or not work. That would change your life for the worse, and would last the rest of your life. The first year is always the hardest.
>Get over your imposter syndrome
unfortunately it's not imposter syndrome more than it is a laziness problem. i dread the thought of having to pull long hours of reading bullshit i don't even care about, i only ever decided to enroll to not be a total disappointment to my old folks. thanks for the insight anyway, i don't think it's that much of a waste tbqh lawyers are all snobby asslickers afaik
man im glad i live with my parents
>saving for a washing machine
sounds like hell
Living with parents and working to save money is the current meta. I fricked it up by being a NEET until I turned 27 and then got thrown into the jungle with nothing.
Real estate is so fricked in Australia it's completely normal for mid-late 20s who have been working 9-5 for years to still live with their parents. I've even met married couples who live with one of their parents. But mostly when couples get married they try to secure a WFH job and move far away from melb/syd as soon as humanly possible. Basically a new wave of white flight. Meanwhile half a million Indians keep coming annually amd cram 8 into a rental while sending the money they earn doing ubereats back to India. Something's gotta break some day.
I'm living in state housing with $70k in my savings and I'm still not even considering buying a house. Mortgage on even a shithole would be triple my current rent and that's without considering insurance and repairs or that one big life frickup and it's all gone. I don't even know what to do with my money it's just sitting in a savings account
>it's just sitting in a savings account
Put it in an index fund you goober.
>index fund
I considered it but I'm already getting guaranteed 5% interest which is higher than my bank's projected returns on a managed fund
Lol. Don't fricking buy stocks through your bank.
>managed fund
Get a passive fund. Managed index funds are literally just the bank taking your money to do literally nothing. They're not actively trading the index.
>it's just sitting in a savings account
Then invest it. Let that shit grow. Listen to Scrooge McDuck my dood.
if you get a CC with a 0% introductory rate, you could buy the machine and just pay it off over the intro period.
I did this once, didn't do laundry for nearly a year which caused me to develop a bacterial infection which in turn made painful and itchy sores appear all over my body, thought it was herpes at the time and was scared shitless until the test came back negative, never again.
kek why don't americans have washing machines in their homes?
I'm European.
only city dwellers dont have one in their place.
disgusting creatures like new yorkers.
Over 80% of American households have washing machines. It's mostly nigs at the laundromat.
Define household because no apartments in large cities have personal laundry hookups. Nice buildings might have laundry center inside though.
I don't even live in a big city but I've never rented an apartment/condo that had hookups, sometimes there's a wash center at the leasing office but the one I live at now has like 4 machines that never work.
But if we're counting people using a shared laundry room at their community/building as part of the 80%, it's bullshit, because they still cost money and have all the pitfalls of commercial washeterias.
That means almost 20% don't
>commute for 1.5 hours each day
>decide to get a driver's license and a car
>drive 1.5 hours to work + daily stress of finding a parking space
Nothing changed except my expenses went up.
There's nothing I don't understand or disrespect more than someone who doesn't love driving. Not even having a license, until you need one for work? I can't sympathize with you.
Also ever since I started lifting and being Cinemaphile I always park in the furthest spot lol
fix yourself
I mean it beats having to share an overfilled bus or subway with hundreds of similarily demoralized worker drones but I saved like 5 minutes of travel time, depending on traffic and technical issues.
All my stores and supermarkets are 10 minutes away from my apartment, so I barely use the car for anything other than driving to work.
>disrespect more than someone who doesn't love driving
Yeah me too. I just LOVE being confined to a metallic box! I LOVE my life being threatened everyday by the 1000's of NPC's I'm forced to share the road with! I LOVE being restricted only to where roads are built!!! I LOVE having to spend all my money on gas, insurance, inspections, just to go to the grocery store! I LOVE being forced to follow 100 different laws and restrictions over-wise my bank account will be raped or I will be arrested! All of that is so much better than simply walking somewhere!
Contrarian meta.
I fricking loathe fat "people", those who used to be fat as well. Like, how disgusting can you be to get to that point? Imagine not being fit from the get go
I can understand hating fat people but hating people that “used to be fat” sounds so moronic
Food tastes good, exercise is boring.
checked? don't we guys do this anymore? haha
Get your ass off Cinemaphile and start your laundry, homosexual.
jobs are fake
look into it
>Jon!
>Again?? How many people have you fired..?
>Clean out the fricking badges!

Accurate.
>character is fired
>other character gets a PROMOTION
I had to explain what promotions were to my boss, nice throwback
are companies really this brutal in america? like do you get escorted out of the building by security while carrying your belongings on a fricking box right after walking out of your superior's office and getting fired? wtf don't they have a contract termination notice in which you still have to work for a few weeks
>wtf don't they have a contract termination notice in which you still have to work for a few weeks
No, that seems absolutely crazy because if someone knows they're going to get fired soon then they'd do a half assed job at best and at worst they'd actively try to sabotage their company.
Yeah bro I'm going to frick up my references to stick it to some homosexual suit I'll never think about again. If they don't want you to come in they have to pay your next two weeks wages
People do dumb things out of emotion or spite all the time, just because you're clear headed enough to not frick up your future doesn't mean that everyone is. Lots of people would be willing to burn bridges on the way out just because they're pissed off.
Yes, this country is a literal prison, a hyper-capitalistic, bureaucratic, corrupt, and incompetent prison, and your cell mates will poke fun at you if you call it out for what it is.
Last job I quit, they gave me a stupid cardboard box, and made me do the perp walk-of-shame with security out of the building. I even gave a 2 week notice.
Biggest cyber security threats are from fired insiders
I gave a 2 week notice and they fired me on the spot. I would've filed for unemployment just to frick them over, but I already had another job lined up.
i accepted a long time ago work will always be total shit. sooner or later the repetition and depression kicks in no matter where you're cucking it. so i decided to focus on my commute and nowadays i leave work at 16:00 and get home at 16:10.
the commute sucks so much because i dread the entire time getting there and swearing at my steering wheel and plotting murders the whole way back
why do people choose to work at shit locations?
Like say someone is gonna give up and work at McDonald's or some chain, why do they choose to work at the biggest most busy one in the city which is 100x more difficult than the one up the road, for the same pay?
Because if no one worked at the busy stores, McDonald's would shut them down and then the slow store becomes the busy store.
The pay may not be the same if the stores are in different localities.
There's more hours and positions available at the busy store so someone who needs to work 40 hours a week but isn't guaranteed it would prefer the busy stores.
In many cases you're applying to the chain in general and all locations in your area can look at your application, you might only get an interview at the busy store.
Busy store is tougher means higher turnover, so they're more likely to be hiring.
They work were they're hired. If the McD down the road aren't hiring they can't work there. The real issue is housing, you should be able to move closer to work, especially if you're renting. Obviously if you live in the suburbs you're just gonna have to accept the commute.
If I were in that position I would honestly always rather wait until mcdS up the road is hiring it's almost impossible that one near by wouldn't be hiring shortly. I think people that apply to stupid locations are crazy
Never been fired but I work in service so it's almost impossible to get fired unless you literally steal out of the register. I wish I could work a real job though...
Obviously the people who work at McDonald's for a living don't have the luxury of sitting around not making any money. What are you, like 15?
Meant for
what because of their large luxurious houses? dunno about where you are but in the UK you can just sign on and the gov will pay your rent until and give you some money till you get a job. It's a shit life but the only way you won't afford it is if you live beyond your means. It's about more likely to me that all the people working at McDonald's make poor financial decisions
This is why I never take any personal items to my place of work, so that I can just walk right out without looking like a b***h.

Why are HR always fricking women?
Lots of psychology majors.
because women enjoy judging people and some decided making their hobby into a career. simple as
Women are genetic gatekeepers and I can't stand it! It feels like I'm standing naked in front of a female jury and they're all mocking and judging me!
I haven't had a job in like 7 years now, I'm totally fricked.
Shit that's easy, pick something you are mildly good at (for me basic IT and computer repair) and tell them you were running your own business doing whatever you were good at. If they ask details just say you need more money or business busted so now you need a job.
Am I the only one here who never got fired? It's not that hard. You guys must have some kind of brain eficiency.
I got fired several times for not simply showing up lmao.
Only once and the guy who fired me really rubbed it in. He kept saying how disappointed he was in me, and when I tried to leave he blocked the door and continued berating me.
Lol, what a b***h. Why did he take it so personal?
I guess I made him look bad because he also hired me. His standing in the office seemed to be slipping to me but I could be wrong.... was only there about a month. Another coworker cornered me one day and asked if I wanted to frick a third coworker without even a hint of how bad it looked/was to be having that conversation with a new person... all the people in that office were weird in the same way. A "close knit" team. Also they were Christians and all watched veggie tales.
What a mess lmao. What sector was the firm part of? Marketing?
It was customer service job for a fairly niche product... Everyone there probably just stumbled into it.
>A "close knit" team.
Red flag #1
>Also they were Christians
Red flag #2
>and all watched veggie tales.
I don't know what that is but it sounds like red flag #3
veggie tales is a cartoon series so yes it's a red flag considering they're adults.
My b***h of a manager threatened to fire me when I couldn't find the correct piece of adjustable shelving in the stockroom. Never mind the stockroom was a chaotic mess and I had just started, go frick yourself Amy you rude cow
I never got fired either. I have quit 3 jobs.
Some day you will get fired and you won't even see it coming.
And then you will be one of us and you will never be able to wash off the stink.
Well, I hope so. They say getting fired is something everyone should experience at least once.
That was the most Ned Flanders response I've ever read.
You'll never get fired with that attitude.
Good. If I were to get fired I have enough savings to last a couple of years at least
Worst I ever got was the manager telling me that the job was not for me and it was a "soft" firing but really I was the one who quit - I could have convinced her to give me another shot if I gave a shit. It was housekeeping at a Mariott.
I never in my life want to work a job that I'm so rooted to that there's actually a box full of shit I need to collect from work instead of being able to simply not go in again
yeah never leave personal belongings at work. people who decorate their desk and the like are weird to me
when I leave with a cardboard box it will be filled with stolen office supplies
In factories there's a security guy tagging along with you after you've been fired.
when you get fired for cause anywhere in the US there's going to be a manager or security guard following you straight out to the parking lot to make sure you don't break or steal anything

Bros I'm about to be 28 and have 15k in credit card debt and own nothing because I work in retail
How do I get a white collar job where people get fired with bankers boxes?
Should I study something like meteorology?
No just buy bitcoin.
what do you do in retail? I would say just try and spin your resume in a positive light and apply for some low level clerical work. If you're not completely incompetent you can then move to a better position somehwere, or just try to outlast turnover and become a team lead and then maybe a middle manager
Currently I'm a shift supervisor at a large chain of home improvement stores, that puts me below the two department managers and the store manager.
I'm in the stockroom department as opposed to sales but all that really means is that I have to be there for truck every week.
It's a decent wage but lifting heavy shit and being on my feet all day and waking up at the crack of dawn is starting to wear me down.
What exactly is "clerical work" anyway? I've always been mystified by what people *do* at an office all day if they aren't direct salespeople, accountants or doing marketing. It feels like all of the job descriptions are vague and the titles meaningless and the requirements very high to be considered, considering they don't seem to have a real purpose.
it's whatever menial work the office needs done so it varies widely. Could be data entry, making phone calls, looking over documents, coordinating information or work with other departments, etc...
>teacher is fired

I got fired from my first job at an office and wasn't given a box, but to be fair I didn't have any personal items at my desk so it wasn't needed
what happened
I was fired once because our company started hiring Poos.
Once the Poos reached management positions, they started hiring other poos to fill the lower levels. The Poos made working a nightmare for the Non-Poos and were actively working to get them to quit. Those who quit were immediately replaced by, you guessed it, more Poos. I held out to get fired so I could get my sweet severance. They finally did claiming I took too much time off for my lunch break. I didn't argue it, I took the money and ran.
Got another job in a similar field and found out that my old place is really going to "shit" because the Poos can't run it right.
this has been happening a lot in canada, its scary. its gotten to the point where even the indians who grew up here are complaining about them
This whole post reads like a made-up demagoge horror scenario by /misc/ and it definitely happened.
Poo in denial
I'm still with the same company I started out in 18 years ago. Is this weird?
No, just that company loyalty has become the exception and not the rule. If you're comfy that's all that matters.
What is your yearly % salary raise? Chances are that your bosses think you are a pushover that will never leave and thus give you the bare minimum salary raise.
Not that much, to be honest. It's a craftman's company, so it's like this pretty much in any other company in the vicinity. But we have an above average salary already, and I'm about to get into a leading position in a few years that I will probably keep for the rest of my life if the company doesn't go belly up.
>tfw new grad cs major
god the interview process is fricking aids.also regret not trying harder to find internships
I was one of the best at my shitty job, but I had been working there for like 8 or 9 years and I guess they wanted to get rid of me because I was somewhat of a "rebel" when it came to HR and shit. So, the HR new boss calls me and tells me some people had complained about my hygiene or something. I knew instantly it was bullshit because I had perfect hygiene, and they probably thought I'd get embarrassed and quit.
I was technically fired once from my carpentry job because my boss scammed a lot of people, took all the money and fled the country. We showed up to the shop with the doors locked and our work trucks gone.
He didn't answer his phone.
Didn't find out what happened for several weeks.
That sucks. No severance, no goodbye, just gone.
Damn, do carpenter bosses make enough money for it be feasable to flee in the first place?
boomer moment
I work long enough until I get unemployment.
Then I get fired
Then I run out of unemployment
Then I work long enough until I get unemployment again.
Is it possible to go from 6000 dollars to frick you money? Like if you're really lucky and know how to invest
If somebody is really lucky they can turn 6000 dollars into 'frick you money'. That's not you. Most people make their 'frick you money' in real estate so if you want an actual consistent life path to aim for to attain money, do that instead of playing with crypto or stocks. "Knowing how to invest" isn't a shortcut to profit, nobody is going to give you enough stock knowledge in a post or thread or entire book to make that a guaranteed outcome. For now, hold your money and ideally add to it instead of trying to double it with get-rich-quick schemes and alchemy
But it has to happen, money is made up, it's all fugazi. The game is rigged bro. I will uncover the secret.
yes if you have a strong background in mathematics, if not then you will just have to gamble with options and risk going into heavy debt
I would have triple/quadruple my current salary if I worked the same job in the US, but movies and television shows have told me that you can get fired on the spot over nothing in the US so I always chicken out when I see job postings in the US. In my country, your workplace is forced to pay you for three more months after you get fired unless you get fired for doing something criminal or pose a threat to the company and even firing you normally is difficult for the workplace.
ur fired Black person
I have literally zero personal items at work.
I make 140K working from home 4 days per week. It is very comfy because I can get a lot done independently. The one day I do have to go in, I usually go in a little late and spend the day socializing with coworkers rather than working. Through the work I've been able to do and relationships I've built at work, I've been able to triple my salary since i started working here 8 years ago.
the weirdest thing about when I worked was how norms literally turned their office spaces into some extension of their home. One woman literally had her own cupboard in the break room where she kept a pantry filled with cereal and shit.
Made me want to blow my brains out just realising how much work is literally life for most people and most people are completely content just droning on.
Hate to break it to you but work has always been the defining factor for people all throughout human history. We have our last names mostly from job descriptions. For the vast majority of our race, work is meaning. Doesn't really make that much sense anymore in the post-modern post-industrial world of automation and failing economies, but you know, old habits die hard.
I'm trying to get fired so bad. I just want a break so bad, very tired of labour.
But I don't really wanna quit on my own. But they love me there cuz morons work there and I can actually do my job.
Once I fricked up an order on purpose and they blamed a moronic guy instead. Felt kinda bad.
I felt the same way for a while. I NEEDED a long break from my job. I “quit” 3 months ago(they were gonna fire me anyway), and this is probably the worst I’ve ever felt. My parents were really the only friends I had left and even though I still live here I have probably said less than 20 words to them all week and I just spend all day thinking about how I’m gonna run outta money soon and how hard it’s gonna be to find another job and start all over for the 5th time. I gotta find something where I’m mostly alone.
With part time WFH, the office has become a public library. There's no permanent workspace in which to place your possessions. Nowadays, I imagine they would just take your company-issue laptop and tell you to leave.
My last job was a remote contract position. The contract was not extended and they never sent me any return info or packing materials to send their IT equipment back despite me sending multiple emails requesting it so I got a free Dell Latitude 15", Dell docking station, kvm switch, and Poly Bluetooth headset.

Literally accurate. Been fired before for smoking my ecig outside [worked at a bank xd] I got the brown box
wtf everytime I go to the bank there’s at least one of those women standing outside smoking a cigarette. I think every woman that works there smokes cigarettes outside
I worked for the feds.. maybe they were extra fricking gay I know the job was and extremely cliquey. I was there for 7 months and that was my first ever frick up or issue ever.
Fricker in charge just fired my ass instantly after a meeting it was wild
Tbh I was a lot younger and I laughed when they said we need to have a meeting about this. I laughed and said "for smoking outside my bad lol my works done anyway" So they probably decided right then and there to fire me xd.
The boomer shall not be disrespected... the boomer is infallible and its greed and ego is earned. Us mortals have no hope
I was once in a position of power and I wouldn’t have had a problem with anyone smoking outside. Honestly if you laughed or tried to brush it off as not a big deal it would have made me pretty butthurt too though.
True that's called a fragile fricking ego btw. I run a team of 20 people and I truly don't give a frick what they say about me . And turns out they don't really say anything bad. Worst I got was a "can't wait to start lunch so I can sleep off this boring lecture" when I told a guy how to do his job.
I laughed :] those little power moves of i NEED respect. How dare you not talk to me as an equal! and protecting your ego is pathetic. It's not war. It's not a fricking battle where lives are at risk.
its a boring ass job where we all go home at 5 or 6 pm. Some guy making me feel a little not important is fricking irrelevant.
I hate your kind of ruler. I prefer my way.
Also let's me smash my female employees cause they think I'm cool.
Nothing you’re saying matters because if I’m in charge I would have fired you for laughing at me. You would have been used to make an example to other employees. I’ll put up with people being late, taking too much time off for being sick, or even just being shitty at their job in general, but I won’t take an attitude or backtalk from someone below me, or being lied to. I’d never speak to you that way so I don’t expect to be talked to that way either. If I’m in control, then I can handle you by removing you from my life just like that.
You are such a strong powerful guy. That's why you're still in a position of power right?
Kek I actually run a team. Having them scared of me is dumb as frick. I'm able to stop problems from growing into bigger ones because if they have any hesitation at all they get my advice. If they're having an off day a bad vibe I let them show it a little. And guess what.. they respect me so I don't actually ever get any back talk or whatever. If some guy doesn't think what he did was a big deal I'd simply remind them that it is. Making light of an issue doesn't mean you escalate it into a firing. That's why you WERE in a position of power and no longer are. Cause you're an ego fuelled Black person who gives a shit about what other people think of you. Everyone sees it buddy it's pathetic.
Used to make an example of is such a fricking red flag lel just do your job stop looking for approval mmkay

Not in this convo at all but just wondering why you wanted to sound like the south park counselor lol
Was trying to do the office space boss guy whose a big prick for no reason. NEED THOSE TPS REPORTS MMKAY..
Ah gotcha thanks
Ah yes team lead of stocking the shelves night crew at fred meyer
Also I'm the opposite. Work quality is the only thing that matters... I'll let you go for being awful but for talking to me like an equal I just.. don't care. And people pick up on that.
