>schedules 20 slack messages for the next morning so he appears busy while sleeping
i just stopped caring. i work remote and i'll go have a nap or read a book outside or go to the grocery store. no i don't owe you an immediate response to your message, send a fricking email
based, I do that same thing
I place a heavy object like a stack of coins on one of my keyboard keys
I played Crusader Kings 3 nonstop while working remote during Covid. Didn't save me from having a mental breakdown.
Should have switched things up with some Victoria 2
You just need to make sure to relieve some stress with a good feast or hunt before you hit 300 stress points 🙂
That's a good game anon
Tfw you have an affair with the leader of the nude Iceland and later they come save your ass from invasion. Your wife and church are mad but you've already won.
that game sucks, play 2
Nobody uses email anymore for business, grandpa.
Yeah we use these gay ass CRM ticket systems nobody ever follows procedure for because everyone is a gorilla Black person that can't read.
>have ticketing system for middle manager to track your team's efficiency
>morons email you requests or just pings you in chat anyway
This is one of those posts that is somehow boomer and zoomer at the same time. I almost exclusively use email for work.
Uh yes they do
lol every place does
if you work somewhere where they dont, that place has shit management
Maybe in the retirement home or some other boomer-friendly daycare. Anywhere with young people and six figures is IMs.
You mean Slack? the shit the breaks all the time? lol
get a job at a real place, kid
I'm a zillennial and I fricking hate using teams. It's way less convenient than email.
Teams fricking sucks. Frick off I'm not gonna remember to sign in to teams to chat with you and I'm not gonna check my email either lol you will schedule a meeting with me to tell me something
How are they going to schedule a meeting with you if you don't check Teams or Outlook?
Tell me sometime idk man
Had an employee like this, fired him after a couple months. He actually started crying when I gave him the news. Hope you realize that you're living on borrowed time, eventually someone's going to take notice of how useless you are.
Woohoo look it's a big bossman holy shit please don't tell my superiors!!!111!
Then he was doing it like a homosexual. And you presumably didn't catch it during the hiring process which would make you a homosexual. I got promoted while doing this because I'm good at my job in spite of my self-selected work hours.
this is the words of a jealous tradie who wishes he could sit at home shitposting and doing 2 hours of work a day on a full salary
I've sleezed by 10 years+ now as a home worker and the only regret was during COVID i continued to work when every other homosexual was being paid to do nothing for a year
Outrageously based. I’m very much looking forward to my first firing. I used to think people who worked had it so hard when I was young, that being fired would be the worst thing in the world, now I’d relish the opportunity. I worked harder in school than most people do in their adult jobs. Lazy c**ts.
Sorry moron but we are all doing frick all. There's laws in place that forces middle-management scum like you to give us plenty of warning. We will go elsewhere and we will continue to do no work.
One of my co-workers actually got fired for something similar.
>Be in IT for a hospital
>Guy worked for desktop support
>He was salaried
>He was basically over one of our smaller facilities
>My bro who is their manager found he was coming in to work for only three hours then leaving for the day
>Got fired because a few of the nurses and doctors complained
Just don't be a moron.
I mean if you're working for a hospital it's probably a bit more important that you're doing your job properly. It's not like you're doing IT for a middle school
I think what got him was we were doing a major upgrade that failed and he was nowhere to be found.
Why? Doctors and nurses kill more people with mistakes than the code ever will.
rookie move. frick off mentally if you need to but always be a few minutes away from responding. if you are in office that means staying there the whole time. I don't do shit but am very attentive when messaged and people remember stuff like that, not the actual work unless it breaks
yeah this. im responsive even though i slack off so they think i get a lot done
I set a timer for 15 minutes and at least glance at my PC when the timer goes off with the excuse “I was in the bathroom” available
if I was caught at the 15 min mark twice in 2 months I’d shorten the timer to 10
haha you gave him a couple of months pay to do frick all get fricked moron
this is what all these wfh morons will never understand, nobody is safe from being fired or laid off in corporate america, the only solution is find a small business or municipality and convince/trick them into believing you're truly irreplaceable
>Job gives me 2 days for remote work.
>Everyone else in my department is either a fricking boomer, moronic ir just fricking dumb.
>after only working there one year, I'm considered some savant because I read manuals, do proper documentation for my work and don't have a mental breakdown if a customer calls.
>Slack off on my remote days and just take calls and do little else.
>boss promotes me to a better position with better pay but simialr work.
>people are none the wiser.
No fricking vlue what I do corrct, but I noticed if I get an assignment, I just played do it. Many pf my coworkers do moronic shit like panicking or makingbup deadlines for simple tasks.
Shit is weird.
>can easily knock out my entire weeks busy work in a single day
>rest of the week is just responding to emails and whatever comes in
>in our weekly meetings everyone else in the region(especially the women) b***h and moan about how busy they are and how they dont have enough time to do everything
Boomers and women are the most worthless employees ever.
m8, people just complain about busy they are just not to receive more work;
All my colleagues once they have some menial task to do say they are "super busy" and only say they have some free time once they are actually doing nothing.
It's a basic defense mechanism.
Based, shitting on company time and posting itt rn
A coworker was fired for using a mouse jiggler and some software that simulates keystrokes.
Meanwhile I used an old microsoft mouse against a mirror in order to make the cursor go crazy.
Best thing is that they told us we had monitoring software installed so I don't know if this guy didn't care or was genuinely moronic.
Yeah I don't trust anything software based, analog frickery is the way to stay safe. If they use screen recoreding soft we're all fricked though
use task manager to find what tracking software they're using and learn about it
my company uses rapid7 insight agent and it doesn't do any of the big brother shit like screencaps every ten minutes or keylogging
Yeah, the guy's productivity was shit too so the whole thing was pretty obvious.
I just tried to adjust my productivity to the average of my coworkers and spent the rest of the day doing nothing.
but wont they just find out when your assigned work isnt done?
I do all my assigned work and then some, they just don't realize how easy and quick it is for me
but in that case why would they be mad? the job they wanted you to do is done
middle managers get their ego bruised by it
never had a job before?
wfh, I've started doing this
I do this as well but using a metal weight on the home key. I combine it with scheduling emails to send out in the three hours before I wake up.
I've been doing this for the full three years and no one has said shit.
I have a pair of earbuds whose wire I place on top of my laptop's touchpad. The electrical infetterance causes the mouse to jitter. Works great except rare instances where it gets stuck in a click loop and I come back to 800 thousand new meeting menus
>infetterance
based and likeyou'redoingrightnowpilled
I napped this afternoon with my finger rested on the trackpad so teams stays green
i do the same thing when im gaming. my team mates get pretty mad
You can just get an autoclicker that clicks every 10 seconds
your company can scan for these, i got warned for it. maybe you can get one that only works remotely through usb.
well i was using a remote desktop with the autoclicker on local
I was going to just rig up a miniature delta robot for this as a smartphone clock in tool. Program in a little bit of randomness so it never quite lands at the same time but always clocks in sometimes between one to five minutes early, and one to five minutes after the shift.
Good luck scanning for that.
Just write a powershell script.
I put a weight on the windows key and it stays green. I've been doing this for over 3 years and I just keep getting away with it.
easier solution for Teams: go to your calendar, hit "meet now", and it'll start a meeting with just yourself. Now manually change your status to available. That's it. You are locked to green and it even bypasses screensaver/timeout policies.
I just sit in my personal meeting room all day and it always shows me as busy
>anon, care to explain why you were in an 8 h meeting today by yourself?
>I like talking to myself when working
>I'm more productive if I feel like I'm sharing what I'm doing with someone else
any bullshit like that
I was leveraging my bandwidth to reskill and augment my core competencies so I can facilitate the alignment of our value proposition in a more agile and scalable way that increases our KPIs.
let's circle back and touch base later about this incident

Jesus Christ what's the point? Do you guys really work at places where you have to "prove" you're not fricking off? No one in my job knows or cares what the frick I'm doing during my WFH days, so long as my shit is done when they ask for it

i avoided that life some good 20 yrs, now im in the wfh part of said life...
just a reminder that none of the work from home meme is sustainable and it will either end in you going back to the cuck office or being replaced by indians who will do your job for pennies on the dollar
Yeah, whatever dude, I'm getting paid for it right now. If it ends, it ends. I won't cry about it, just move on and use other easy way to game the system. I hope you will enjoy that little bit of satisfaction you will get from it.
I am 90% work from home and 10% office/site visit.
It's completely sustainable and today all I did was send an email. I woke up at 2pm.
Stay coping
if you're working remotely then why does it matter if they pay an indian instead?
it doesnt
Have you worked with many?
by the time that happens they'll be 40 and retired, what's your point?
Inida had a public holiday today and it ground work to a halt. I've been waiting since Friday for someone to literally click a button to assign a task and there's just nobody available, I would get fired if I held up work like this
Fellow Indian tard wrangler. These "people" are beyond saving.
I think they make up fake holidays to trick the white man. Not that official Indian holidays are any more legit

I'm going to abuse every single minute of it and soak up every free dollar I can while sleeping till one in the afternoon anyway until it comes to an end and you can't stop me.
Please stop posting this girl. A solid third of my fap sessions since this video dropped have been me imagining us in a relationship and her doing that head poke thing while we're having an argument.
I've been in the workforce almost ten years. Worked at a bank where I grinded for 8 years in the office.
Switched to Tech this year and it's been the best experience of my entire life. 8-5, my job requires about 3 hours of 'work' a day. Literally today and tomorrow I have about an hour of work to do.
I work from home as often as I want. I make the same money that I did at the bank.
This job is almost too good to be true. As others have said, I'm riding this out as long as possible, and then I'll figure out my shit when the inevitable reaper comes for me.
High five tech club bros.
Here's the deal with the tech world. The management has no clue whatsoever what is even going on, they barely understand how to send an email and attend zoom meetings much less anything technical. They are literally doing nothing but socializing and going to meetings all day long, the techs are literally doing nothing and getting their actual work done in five minutes and it still mystifies the management who would be mystified at how a toaster operates, and it all keeps churning along.
I'm not convinced the reaper will come. When layoffs do happen in tech, you usually get a pretty fricking good letter of recommendation, and zoomies are absolutely moronic when it comes to computers because they grew up as ipad babies so tech companies specifically seek out people with experience. Also, this attitude of not working is like this all over the place. My girlfriend works as a sales support technician, and she spends maybe like 5 hours a week working. We usually spend most of the day watching movies or fricking instead of working.
Hell, Office Space came out 24 years ago, and it's a movie everyone acknowledges and relates to, and nothing has changed.
>Hell, Office Space came out 24 years ago, and it's a movie everyone acknowledges and relates to, and nothing has changed.
This is actually a really good point. The only worrying thing is being replaced by moronic Pajeets who can't code/work/think for shit, but will fill the seat for cheap until you can sell to another private equity firm
As other anons have said, if you're intelligent you're worth 5 people in India. The real concern now is AI, but I think we're still several years from AI taking over, and even then you'll still need intelligent humans in tech in certain positions.
nah i think even AI is overblown. even though the jeets are pogging out right now because the barrier to entry has been lowered so much all they have to do is visit bing now. it'll settle into its niches and the jeets will move onto the next tech trend of the year.
something that WILL change in the mid future (15-30 years) are software salaries. they will not be 6 figures forever. companies are investing billions into getting people to code all across the world because their biggest opex is engineer salaries. hell even with WFH being short-term beneficial, longer term it's worse because it allows companies to lower wages even more since they have a larger pool of candidates to choose from.
>since they have a larger pool of candidates to choose from.
But I have a larger pool of companies to apply to. 10 software engineers applying to 12 jobs and 10 different software engineers applying to 12 different software jobs in a different metro doesn't seem different than 20 software engineers applying to 24 WFH jobs.
>something that WILL change in the mid future (15-30 years) are software salaries. they will not be 6 figures forever
It's been a failure for the last 25 years anon. Outsourcing failed. Importing is failing. The real truth is it requires a special type of tism to be genuinely good at programming. Those people with the tism do all the meaningful work for the company. As long as you're one of those people your salary will always be high.
If either of you understood how AI worked you would not be worried at all. AI is nothing more than a fancy google search. If a solution doesn't already exist for the exact thing you are trying to create, AI will never be able to produce one. Much like a pajeet, it has no originality. It's just an expensive stack overflow search engine. Most of the problems encountered in translating business needs into product are not computable. A competent developer will always be required.
>AI is nothing more than a fancy google search
moron alert. ML models are nothing at all like google searches.
> It's just an expensive stack overflow search engine
How does a stack overflow search engine tell me which machines in a factory are likely to fail without maintenance in the next month? How does it let me schedule workforce allotment? How does it let me predict employee churn by district?
You're missing his point, moron. AI can't create anything original. All the points you made are just pattern recognition, and probability, which people can do on their own, and have been for centuries.
No, you fricking moron, people have not been doing billions of calculations by hand for centuries. AI has, for the last several decades, massively opened the door to operational improvements. The time to be bearish on AI was the early 2000s. Anybody who thinks AI is useless beyond that point is a fricking moron.
>bruh statistics is a new thing!!!
You're actually a zoomer lol. He's not saying it's useless, just that it cannot create. AI cannot make something that doesn't already exist, like the Chinese.
Nobody can create anything. Everything is just modifications of existing data.
>internet
None of our censor information is on the clearnet. Fricking moron.
>It has the life expectancy of the parts in the machines, when they went into operation
Holy shit, do you not understand ML models make unique predictions for each unit? I can tell you exactly which machines will fail before the expected lifetime and after the expected lifetime with exceedingly high accuracy. You could technically do that with excel in that excel is turing complete, but I get the strong impression you have no idea what you're talking about.
>I need X people to create Y things in T time. I need N things in T time. Solve for X and Y. It's basic math lad.
Great now do that for 1000 locations with unknown Y and N. Fricking moron. Learn what machine learning is.
Calculators have had a fricking massive effect on the economy. You anti-AI gays are the largest morons in the world.
>bro forecasting is this totally new concept that was invented only recently!
go to bed zoomzoom
Yes, you fricking moron. Individual predictions for tens or hundreds of thousands of units were completely impossible prior to the invention of better compute.
Early computers could process 5,000 calculations a second, zoomzoom. ML is good, is very useful, and time saving, but it's not creating anything or replacing engineers or most other jobs.
5k flops would take longer than humans have existed to train a modern model. You really have no idea what you're talking about.
>dude you have no idea no one forecasted anything until AI
wait until you discover the farmers almanac
Anon, he's too stupid to realize that AI can compute pythagorean theorem, but it could never derive the formula itself. He completely missed the point of what was being posted. Typical data 'scientist'.
Yeah that almanac was as advanced as ML models. I can predict a coin will be heads with a 50% probability so that means computers are useless since humans already did that.
What the frick are you even arguing at this point?
And we've spent the last several decades wielding it effectively. You benefit from AI models dozens, if not hundreds of times per day.
You're such a midwit. It's hilarious how you zoom zooms think math is a new concept that men haven't spent our entire histories.
raw compute power doesn't mean dick if you don't know how to effectively wield it.
AI is a tool like every other "tech industry killer" before it
What the frick do you think computers were made for? Look at the name "computer" too. They weren't intended for gaming, jerking off to trannies, or me calling you a stupid Black person on an anime forum, Black person. They were for COMPUTING, calculating, doing math. Holy frick. Zoomers are completely useless.
>Calculators have had a fricking massive effect on the economy.
And yet here we are, with even more middle tier excel sheet data handlers than what existed before the calculator came into existence. If the calculator created more jobs, not fewer, and history has followed this precedent thus far, why would a fancier calculator be any different? It still needs human input.
>There are more excel jockeys after than the invention of the calculator than before (when excel, a fancy calculator, did not exist)
Wow.
No one replying to you is anti-AI. The original argument is that AI wont replace entire workforces like doomsayers are insisting it will.
>muh ai
You're a fricking neet, with a youtube education who just wants everyone to be as much of a failure as you are. Sorry anon, but your fantasy isn't happening anytime soon.
I'm a data scientist
>data scientist
This homie writing basic hello world scripts, and filling out excel sheets to make charts and thinks he knows AI.
Chill out you huge dumb homosexual, you misunderstood what everyone was saying in your moronic nerd rage
Did calculators replace people? All you described is a fancy calculator.
Anon. AI are trained on datasets. The computer cannot do anything outside of that set. It's ability to create is bounded by the dataset, and that set is bounded by the information available on the internet.
>How does a stack overflow search engine tell me which machines in a factory are likely to fail without maintenance in the next month?
It has the life expectancy of the parts in the machines, when they went into operation, and how much uptime those machines have on them. A person with excel could formulate the same result.
>How does it let me schedule workforce allotment?
I need X people to create Y things in T time. I need N things in T time. Solve for X and Y. It's basic math lad.
Brianlet moron. “AI” is good for some things, no doubt, but unique problem solving is not one of them.
Shit, I remember chatgpt not calculating log(a/b) = log(a) - log(b) correctly. You need to actually know about what you’re asking
Scary future when you combine Pajeets with AI that basically helps them produce something an actual human would. It's probably years down the road but I'm thinking of how to transition to some kind of AI work just to make sure I'm on the inside when it happens. I fricking hate Pajeets.
A few months ago the reaper finally came. They decided to merge my team with another that one falling behind who happens to have to work in the office. So now I'm stuck doing my work and there's because they are so incompetent. I still try to WFH when possible, but it's only every other afternoon if I'm lucky. Also my new manager is a major stickler so I have spend time "looking" busy in the office.
Really should look for a new job but I'm just too lazy.
When I have to work in the office I meditate. It's really relaxing actually. It's like time where I force myself to be bored and just consider my life. I think it's actually necessary and good for your mental health.
I don't know if it's the being bored that is actually good for my mental health, or if it's just that unplugging from constant stimulation is
just pre-emptively claim another employee is slacking or not competent lol
What should I look for if I'm in finance and want to transition to tech? I need a wfh job or I might literally kill myself
revenue operations
accounts receivable but not first tier collector shit
get into netsuite/salesforce and be the guy who figures out how that shit works
you won't be collecting the money but you'll be helping the people who do
or scratch all that and just go take a couple of courses in actual dev work
Daily reminder that nobody actually did any work at the office anyway
Here's how I know you're not a wfh chad. I can work 1 day a week and not only output more work than a team of pajeets, but it's higher quality work. Pajeets are absolute bottom tier iq, even lower than the american blacks. Everything they build breaks. Every system they design is brittle. Every line of code the write is broken. Pajeets are a liability and only exist as filler, like women, to drive down real wages. All the meaningful work is done by white men. In times of famine, all the pajeets get cut.
I didn't know they let you take pictures inside Microsoft
>replaced by indians
If that's the case then that job wasn't that important
I work with PHI and stinky pajeet fingers can't touch it by law. Checkmate, Ranjesh
Wrong. We switched to work from home a full 5 years before covid. Costs went way down and productivity shot up and stayed up. I'm senior management now and there is zero chance we will ever go back.
It’s funny cos it’s true. At the end of the day companies aren’t gonna reward workers highly for trying to do as little as possible, which is exactly what every WFHer is doing. If you want to succeed you are still going to need to learn how to speak to people IRL. Sorry to all the autists who never figured it out.
Sorry neet friends, wfh chads won, we get paid to basically do what you're doing except a few hours of work a week at the worst.
You should have stuck with the tech degree lol
I head that for 10 years already, and we are still here
big companies with indian remote service are still paying external consulting so at the end of the day something is working
at least say
> indians with AI
to align with the most recent flavor of that bullshit
See
None of our societies are sustainable, they're flooding them all with wogs. Enjoy the ride.
my manager is a gen x burnout who does not give a shit. he's jaded but doesnt take it out on us, instead just is apathetic so i basically get free reign to frick around. i do my stuff right away so i dont have to do it later and i'll have like half the day free
>have a real job
>actually have work to do every hour I'm employed
>if we all sit around doing jackshit the company goes bankrupt
how the frick do offices even work with you buttholes doing nothing all day long
We do the work, we just do it quick and efficiently
>efficient
>produce 20 minutes of work every 8 hours
that's some serious military grade copium anon
It's accurate though. If I make an ML model which makes our 50,000 on-the-ground employees each 0.2% more efficient with their time, that's the equivalent of 100 employees of efficiency I've created. No matter how hard any one blue collar employee works, they simply cannot match that level of improvement. White collar work scales with company size and blue collar work doesn't. Simple as.
I'm a controls engineer don't try and bullshit me anon. The results of your efforts are meaningless, what matters is you are wildly unproductive vs some of similar skillset who is actually working all day.
If you work in the right field, productivity is relative and your managers don't really know if you're really working. Especially if you're smart and can get the work that's expected of you done quickly.
it's only because your managers are as lazy and unproductive as you are
Yeah, it's great. Everyone makes a shit ton of money and barely works.
Now do the government.
Only poor people actually work, and a few white collar workaholic engineer types who are too autistic to figure out the entire western world is one big vacation.
>Only poor people actually work
Its not much different in service and blue collar jobs anon but it comes in the form of halfassing something or taking 300% longer than needed
I know I've done blue collar work too. In the trades everyone drags their fricking ass to make things take as long as possible when they're hourly.
This is where piece work came from so tradesmen can't get away with it.
Union tradies are the worst for this, they're still widely regarded as lazy and avoided even at large manufacturers
non-union working on a quoted job are very good since any slackers get fired or yelled at
Oh I know, my Landlord was a union electrician. He and his partner used to take turns sleeping half the shift off while the other was up in the picker basket on lookout.
My bro though just got union busted from his 37 dollar an hour frick around job down to the 19 dollar an hour world, so the reaper came.
Good. Frick all the lazy shits in this thread I hope you all get fired.
Had some Mexicans paint my parents' house last July. One just kept saying he had to go to the bathroom but I highly suspect that he's just goofing off on his phone because I keep hearing "bing bing wahoo" every time I passed the door.
Good for him. Life is short. You should spend as much of it goofing off as possible. Money is bullshit. Society is bullshit. If you have more than like $2 million there's literally an infinite money glitch you can do to just live like a king off interest for the rest of your life and not do any sort of work.
That's the message behind Office Space I think. Just stop caring, shit doesn't matter. People get fired for arbitrary reasons, not because they're bad at their job.
ideally you should live according to a purpose, not wasting time. it's not there to be wasted; it exists to glorify God.
>ideally you should live according to a purpose, not wasting time. it's not there to be wasted; it exists to glorify God.
I bludge at work so I can come home refreshed enough to read theology.
It's really more that dumb people work. If you're smart, you can find a way to not work in pretty much any job. Dumb people either take busy work jobs and are too stupid to find shortcuts or too stupid to quit a dead end career. Smart people either find the shortcuts or change positions until they find a job that's easy and pays well. There are tryhards out there that have a passion for their job, and they work hard and climb the corporate ladder, but it's really not necessary. You just have to be likeable and smart and be able to work hard and intelligently when you finally have to actually prove you're needed at the company.
Yeah, while I want to help others in the job I'm doing and I get satisfaction from that, I'm also looking out for what will pay me the most for the least amount of work.
Wouldn't that be nice? In reality all the unproductive useless people are working really hard at slowing things down
I wish. I was hired on bullshit basis of basic engineering skills but advanced ability to produce professional paperwork and talk to clients.
My boss prefers to do latter by himself or relegate it to designated employees for that kind of shit so i'm left with work that i'd do anyways in my free time just to have my skills honed
The sad reality is that 95% plus of the white collar world is unproductive and unnecessary.
The twitter layoffs showed this. The reality is the small percentage of productive workaholic white men do almost all of the work and the vast majority are in adult daycare.
But the other thing about this is those people in adult daycare coonsoom, and prop up the economy at the same time. It's basically a perpetual motion machine trick that will come to an end eventually.
>But the other thing about this is those people in adult daycare coonsoom, and prop up the economy at the same time.
You mentioned a thing that almost no one does. It's true that the adult day care is just a welfare program distributed to corporations.
All industries have dead weight though. It's not just tech. Look at the federal government, and even your local city government. It's full of literal welfare queens doing frick all.
>The twitter layoffs showed this. The reality is the small percentage of productive workaholic white men do almost all of the work
elon fired everyone and took a photo with the remaining employees
i see mostly orientals and pajeets with even a few women hiding in the background. you have just been DEBUNKED
>about 20+ employees just to change bird.jpg to x.jpg
Office chads, I kneel
>The results of your efforts are meaningless
The results of my effort have quantifiable increases in machine uptime and reductions in maintenance costs thanks to my predictive models.
>If I make an ML model
you aren't making shit
In my case, I work for a fortune 500 where all the officechads are coasting off the profits generated by the tens of thousands of blue collar workers across the nation we employ.
And are your blue collar workers paid a fair and competitive rate?
>fair
Depends on your definition of fair, I suppose
>competitive
Yes, our competitors pay similarly.
ya seethe?
Our work is higher value than whatever it is that you do.
We are selected based on our social value.
Our high social value gives us higher pay for less work.
Should have gone to college.
because ultimately somehow your taxes are paying for it
You pay for them. Your office people are them. Your bosses are them. Your HR are them. If you work for a company with office staff you are their welfare paypiggy. Internalize this. Act on it.

There's nothing funnier than an anon freaking out over work having benefits or fun activities or social events or free food. Apparently if you aren't breaking your back for 12 hours everyday it's not real work.
Fricking Kek. The only group thing I know of that men frequent is that one after your life has been literally destroyed by alcoholic addiction.

Better off dual majoring in meteorology and CS. The future of weather models is ML.

Transfer it to a CS minor
Transfer deez nuts into your mouth.
>Middle Class Cinemaphileners worried about being replaced by jeets/AI when were at the infancy of the compitency crisis due to third worlders, diversity hires, and zoomers.
Ultimately this, everyone copes about decadent culture or late stage capitalism, etc. but this is the real reason China will prosper next century. US/Europe might become China's equivalent of pajeets eventually if whites are still around, lol
>China will prosper next century
That was a good one anon
Am I wrong? Zoomers are mostly incompetent with the upkeep of lots of systems, when boomers and gen xers who have done their jobs for 50 years and never trained anyone else to do them die off things are going to be a lot different
And Chinese are subhuman bugmen who can't do anything without whites doing it first
Ok? Intelligent whites will probably be imported as their idea guys
Insane cope. China is collapsing much faster than the US
>two more weeks
Weird fantasy but ok
Lmao, get back to me once China fixes their absurd housing bubble and population decline.
jeets so incompetent they can't even autocorrect this phoneposter's shitpost
You're right.
I'm a tech guy who got laid off from a company recently where I spent most of my day babysitting a bunch of zoomers and other people who were incompetent in addition to my own work. Was told they could no longer deal with the expense. Coincidentally they hired a family member and gave them an absurd amount of money a few months prior for doing absolutely zero work. At the time I just laughed because of how absurd it all was and knew what would happen.
I had a role that was vital to production and I knew they wouldn't find anyone to fill the position. I'm not saying I'm some amazing worker, I spent most of my day shitposting but my work still got done. So it's pretty great seeing that the company never filled my position and is struggling so much after a few months that they're now laying people off and their entire IT infrastructure is falling apart because nobody knows basic tasks.
This. E-mail is also the best tool for CYA
I can see why you got laid off. Get over yourself, tech-monkey.
Nah they just fired you because you are intensely unlikeable. Many such cases. Being someone who other people want to be around is quite the life skill, one which spergs like you never learn.
>more seethe
lmao
Enjoy being unemployed with no friends autist.
I should have been fired in my first year where I work now, but because I do a little overtime, I'm funny, and everyone thinks I'm about a decade younger than I am, I get away with anything
This. Western civilization is already collapsing due to incompetent Black folk and zoomers. Basic restaurants are already in complete shambles.
I just had to start working in an office against, the cubicle is killing me and it is only the first fricking day.
Working from home for the past 18 years fricked me up.
>working at a company that actually cares
Lol, every single one of my co-workers works "flexible hours" "from home".
I sell software to local governments, universities, and public school districts.
$80k base, $80k commission = $160k annual OTE
Fully remote, no travel
I do 2 hours of actual work per day
Enjoy it while it lasts. Your management will catch on, then cut half your team and massively raise quotas
>t. Was in the same exact situation 2 years ago
what the FRICK
You fricking b***h. I probably either work with you regularly or have gotten a pitch from you at least once. I knew you homosexuals were lazy. But I'm not much better.
i work in revenue of a software company and it seems like the regular salespeople are always griping about commission, screaming FIX THIS FIX THIS whenever something is broken, always complaining about a $5 difference on an invoice, shit like that- massive turnover in those positions
meanwhile the distributor channel salespeople are chill as frick and have been here for a decade
selling in bulk to people with inflexible budgets must be the easiest job in the world
I've done this with Email responses, like if I finish something or have a answer I'll stack responses at like 9:34, 10:50, 11:38 or whatever. I've learned that the few people that care just want to feel or like the appearance the cogs are always turning. But by all means, don't tell a soul at your job; jealous motherfrickers will always find a way to frick you over in the most passive aggressive way possible.
Paying an hourly wage only encourages people to do the bare minimum.
Why would I work faster when my only reward is more work but not more money?
>NOOOOOOO I HATE MY CUSHY OFFICE JOB I WISH I WAS DOING BACK-BREAKING LABOR IN THE HOT SUN ALL DAY FOR LESS PAY

Its hard because I have to convince myself that this is the best job ive ever had. Not demeaning or stressful or demanding like food service or warehouse shit. I actually made it. I made it to a cushy well paying office job and I still find some way to be unhappy. What is wrong with me??
You need a hobby to spend your hard earned money, the fruit of your labor on. Hoarding wealth is not satisfying, using it on something you're passionate about is. I'd also say start a family but we all know that's not happening.
What kind of engineering?
>I made it to a cushy well paying office job and I still find some way to be unhappy. What is wrong with me??
Read up on marx's concept of alienation. At the end of the day it's still working for someone else, even if they pay you well.
>I made it to a cushy well paying office job and I still find some way to be unhappy. What is wrong with me??
Comfort and complacency will make you unhappy and cynical because you know you could do more. Use that free time you have from your current job and try to use it to your advantage. Get a home gym and lift weights during the day. Learn something new and useful related to your field of engineering. Learn coding while you're fricking around avoiding your actual work. Just use the time you have as a springboard for better things in the future.
How do I get a work from home job? I sleep 5 hours a night so I can wake up at 4 a.m. and go to a factory and work with asiatics hispanics and ukies all day. I'll do anything to work remotely. I can't get an erection for my girlfriend thanks to 4 yesrs of sleep deprivation. I feel numb to reality since June 2020. Its over for me honestly. I can't even learn 2 code because I used to orogram for a hobby and I fricking hate it.
Just go to sleep earlier moron
>just give shekelstein an even larger pecentage of your day
I've tried but the sheer fricking rage keeps me from going to sleep that early. I'll probably go NEET soon. I have a gf and she'll probably dump me for going NEET but I don't care anymore.
Take a small paycut and go back to school, your girlfriend might put up with you losing your job as long as it shows that youre trying to move up. Start going to gym and focus on your legs once you’re on a somewhat normal work schedule. I can’t help you find easy remote work jobs with your degree, so thats on you. GL
Don't slack off in school, get a degree, learn useful skills when you are young. Oh wait, it's too late for you.
So should I just go NEET then KMS? I'm 29.
Your best bet is IT, really.
a majority of IT jobs either require way too many certs and experience to even think about remote work or you're stuck being on-site showing people how to turn their computers off and on
WFH-gays get the rope.
t.IT guy who sets people up to work from home because they can't follow simple directions
I worked with a guy who just used a mobile app to pretend he was active in the company chat room. One time he left for like 3 hours to go shopping. Another time he went downtown to buy weed. Tons of times I'd talk to him and he was playing fortnite with a few other co-workers. I mostly work freelance now but those were the days.
>opens up OneNote/Excel/Word

I'm thinking of switching careers to something like electrician or AC installer. It's like a 3 month course and they make a shitload of money here. I'm already a millionaire anyway and could live off passive income for decades, and I'm bored of working with a computer. Are trades a good career?

>one of them is too anxious to even order off of a menu
zoomers have simply optimised their life around a totally different paradigm (net zero energy expenditure.)
indeed, why interact with humans when some boomer will do it for you? why stay online in teams, when he knows that you know that all zoomers refuse to work?
what’s it like to have a passion and be skilled?
got a friend who’s finally making that big break in something he loves, it’s like he’s walking on cloud 9 as he gleefully obsesses over his next project.
everyday I’m alive is like walking to the noose while drugged out pain meds
This is a demoralization thread made by a bunch of brown skinned ASLs from their call center. Get out while you still can.
I dont work in an office but it sounds like its not so much what you know its who you know and a lot of these jobs are just excuses to pay their friends to frick around and maybe do some project an hour a week
The truth is that if you're really an intelligent white man in IT, and you've already got experience and been promoted once or twice so your career is secure, you're going to spend the rest of your days managing incompetence or having to do the jobs of other people to meet the insane demands of your business partners/customers. You might be able to schedule your work so that you get a comfy wfh day every once in a while but you're going to be person responsible for meeting project timelines and responding to incidents because the incompetents can't do it:
I'm black and this is already my life as the head of my department. Why do you think only white men have to deal with nonsense in the work place?
>I'm black

>just received another promotion because this blonde manager wants me to work for her
When I was young, I used to believe most social situations would involve extremely competent/powerful/attractive people looking down at me. Now, I'm realizing it's pretty easy to stand out in a workplace, especially if it's one with women in management, when the competition is boomer men, dad bods, and socially awkward echoes of my past. I figure I can ride my 6/10 looks for another decade. I've also avoided any harassment bs by making sure I mention my gf early and often, which actually seems to drive women bosses' interest even more, but also builds good distance.
I do this, but with men
Based. Especially when you don't even have to flirt, but just exist for them to map their fantasy onto you.
I work from bali, work less than 5 minutes a month, and make thirty times more than you, and the work I put out is higher in quality and quantity than anything you could make in a whole year of work

>getting partial wfh soon
>haven't had to actually use my law degree once in two years
It may not be big law money but it pays my bills and is pretty comfy. Getting paid to be a slacker feels like a huge accomplishment after being told how busy being a lawyer will be. Godspeed to you techies who also game the system
Call me a coping moron but I cannot stand wfh or any job that has five built-in hours of dick around time. Being busy makes the day go by, and literally anything is more enjoyable than procrastinating/answering emails while scrolling through Excel.
what’s your job, and do you have any hobbies?

No, but I don't expect to be "happy" anywhere, but more money could make my life more comfortable.
Yeah, no quantity has been said, so I'll have to see if the raise is worthy considering I have offers from other companies.
There's some new members in upper management and I think this might be their move to prevent me from leaving.
make sure you know how much more you get paid for how much more work.
i had to scroll up and double-check this wasn’t a Cinemaphile thread lmao
It's rather obvious it isn't, there's a civil discussion and people are sticking to the main topic.
