I am off until Wednesday. Get fricked loser.
>they let me out of the cagey to catch a breather for being a good boy
Congatz!
I have a cushy government job with good salary, 35 hour work week, great benefits, and a solid pension. Life is good.
What games are you going to play over the course of your break?
I got sick last week and spent all the time home comfy in my death bed Playing P3R. Thank god I saved those 40 sick leave. And I still have my 80 vacation saved.
Ethan?
Sounds like my current situation.
Teacher?
bringe
I DON'T CARE ABOUT EITHER, I JUST WANT THIS!
FRICK WRONG PIC, I MEANT THIS!
Either or
Same, need hag.
I don't get it
Getting a job in [the industry] didn’t fill the void in that guy’s heart. He feels unfulfilled despite “doing everything right”
Literally me. I'm glad I got the job that I got, but I don't want to waveslave. Work is work no matter how you look at it.
>Work is work no matter how you look at it.
A decent salary is enough to keep you motivated at least, no?
not for me. i worked a soulless job where i sat in a line of other people, "chained" to my desk (electrostatic wire to not shock computers) repairing computers where i just receive computers, send them off to other random people in a warehouse, and get them back with notes if something was messed up because they don't train people properly and don't actually care to talk to people and only want to make their own numbers go up. it was my best paying job so far but i quit within a couple of months.
I don't like people which is exactly why I work a job like that.
I don't like people either but I still work in retail. Not to sound edgy but you just start seeing them as cattle at some point.
thats not edgy at all, they see you the same way
I have not reached that point yet. When I have longer breaks from work my main reason to wash up is so that the cashier girl doesn't notice I'm smelling like shit.
this
also not to be edgy but I long for the day you are replaced by a machine
>I don't like people either but I still work in retail.
Same here man. Makes you realise the average person is not special in the slightest.
If they're ugly they'll likely be more miserable if they look good they'll be more confident but beyond that superficial bullshit people are so, so boring and predictable.
i don't like people either and it made me feel worse towards people. butthole bosses that care about numbers, butthole coworkers that don't want to give any time to teach anything and also are fine with wasting time because they're lazy fricks who can't bother to spend an extra minute to realize they're wrong, wasting even more time in general because they only care about getting their own numbers up and anything that goes slightly out of the norm is seen as a nuisance and "not my problem!"
i fricking hated that place holy frick
It's that or being homeless man, all I need to see is someone tweaking on the street to know wageslavery is a better existence, as long as you're not minimum wage at that point just leech off the government.
>as long as you're not minimum wage at that point just leech off the government.
Honestly speaking, this is literally the single reason why the governments are so hell bent into mass importing poverty, why would someone work sunrise to sunset picking fruits for less than minimum wage when you can just start receiving government subsidies for not working?
The real answer is that if you needed to do that work to afford luxuries but not to simply survive, people would still want to work but those who didn't could at least be happy and not dead. And the government would get even more money because money given to people for necessities automatically goes back to the economy because they can't afford not to spend it.
It's called UBI.
its not too bad, i bought a tent with my last paycheck at a job and lived in a tent community for a while. had a laptop, didnt work for like 7 months. went to a 24/7 gas station for internet and to charge my laptop, which would then stay alive for about 6ish hours while in my tent. i would just program and do some light vidya. easily the worst part was being greasy and unable to shower. i had enough money to eat hot dogs every day. that kinda sucked too but it was overall comfy. if i had figured out some kind of shower system i would've considered it a long vacation.
i'd honestly rather go homeless at some point, especially if it meant fricking off into the wilderness
This homie has never been close to homeless. You eating good? You got a place to stay? Money for other shit? Job doesn't make you wanna have a nice day while you're there? You're doing better than most of the fricking world.
That said, I mad that as SOON as Tekken 8 released my work started again. I've watched more gameplay than I have played. Frick.
>Job doesn't make you wanna have a nice day while you're there?
I dont think I've ever held a job that didn't make me want to kill myself
>You're doing better than most of the fricking world.
Frick them!
>You eating good? You got a place to stay? Money for other shit? Job doesn't make you wanna have a nice day while you're there?
Rat in a cage.
Or you could just put all your savings and inheritance in a credit union and live off the dividends at minimum wage equivalent without working the rest of your life.
>I was raised up believing I was somehow unique,
>Like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes, unique in each way you can see,
>And now after some thinking, I'd say I'd rather be,

i was raised as child labour on a farm which gave me nice skills, but i still hate wagie shit still controlled by boomers, id love to anchor some old c**ts to the bottom of a lake only for some hobby divers to find them a decade later as chained bones
People still think that reaching their "goals" makes them happy?
Hahaha
It's all in your head, and if you can't control your head, you can't control happiness, I recommend stopping the constant stream of dopaminergic actions and taking at least 30-60 minutes of your day to sit down, close your eyes, either focus on a single point of interest of your choosing inside your mind, or experience your surroundings as they are, not as compartmentalized words and terms, but as things that just are, sounds, sensations, in no time will you start to see change.
>People still think that reaching their "goals" makes them happy?
>Hahaha
100% this. Once you reach your goal you start feeling empty inside. Either make your goal something that you'll chase for the rest of your life or something immaterial that adjusts itself on its own and grows bigger every time you get close to it. Everything is fine as long as you have a goal you're working towards.
That's why all those CEOs can't stop working even after becoming billionaires - they keep chasing a monetary goal that grows bigger every time they get close to it. Not out of greed but because they'd lose their reason to live if they acknowledged that they've reached their goal.
>Once you reach your goal you start feeling empty inside
I didn't. It's all in your head. I've been happier in the last 2 years than I've been in the previous 24
I refuse to be content in misery because that's a loser mindset
I got a really interesting new job just 15 days ago
I WILL not succumb to this for once
Why would he be glad after getting a job in [THE INDUSTRY] to begin with?
I don't mind working itself, in fact I actually enjoy working towards my own goals.
I do however live in constant resentment that my labors benefit other people. I really don't want to help others in any way, shape or form.
is he sad because he never gets powsi because hypergamy blackpilled 80/20 manlet few millimeters of bone
real as frick
take the part time with benefits pill
I work 30 hours a week at $25/hr with multiple weeks of vacation and PTO a year
anon I can't even get 40 hour a week at 20
Are you a schoolbus driver?
I got a job as a part time bartender
I like the work and even enjoy dealing with drunk customers
but I've heard the novelty of mixing drinks will wear off in the first couple of years
I dread that day
Good shit anon. I love bartenders, they tend to be super nice and joyful
thanks
but again, I dread the day novelty wears off and it becomes a "job"
All I'm getting from this is that commutes suck
Thanks covid for permanent work from home
youre moronic thats why
this anon explains it perfectly
Just kill anyone who tells you to wear a mask.
>Just kill anyone who tells you to wear a mask.
Masks save lives, moron, do you really think these people don't know what they're talking about:
Literally just had this exact thought
I don’t even hate my job, I just don’t want to sit in my fricking office for eight hours
For me, it's just that those silent dark hours between 4-6am is the best time for vidya. Still, going to work in the am and being done by 3 beats the fricking shit out of working nights
Same page here. Games in the quiet hours of the morning are great, and the thing I love the most about my job right now is that I’m usually off at 3pm and rarely ever work weekends.
I’m trying to savor it while I can since I’m moving this summer and am likely to end up working overnights for a little while at my new workplace
crased
>give up over half of my waking hours 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year
>in exchange I make just enough money to rent a basement suite to keep my stuff
>the boomer boss man just sold the company for a few milly, while still renting out the land the business occupies to the new owners for 5 figures a month
I guess I'm just not pulling my bootstraps hard enough
why don't you take a risk and try then?
You're only seeing the companies that succeed and can provide you a job. How about people that lost everything and offed themselves because they tried to make a company that can provide jobs. Why don't you do the same?
Taking a risk when you have a fallback can be a gamble worth taking.
Risking your livelihood for le dream entrepreneurship is batshit moronic.
No you won't become the next Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Zucc or an astronaut.

how do I get a WFH job??? (that pays well and isn't some pajeet reject IT specialist customer service bullshit)
I've been working as a web developer for some years, and in 2020 I got an offer to work for a company that doesn't even have an office in my country.
I've got to thank the chinkflu for this, been looking for other jobs as of late and none of them are 100% wfh anymore, but more like an hybrid variant.
wish my desk job allowed working from home
it was great during covid, had a game on one monitor and work stuff on the other, did the bare minimum and it was still fine
Take the work from other people's home pill.
>get up at 7:30
>start work at 8:30
>get off at 2 or 3
>take a nap
>play vidya till 2am.
It's really that easy, folks.
based fellow wfh'er. I've done about 20 mins of work today and the rest of it I've been watching playing spyro.
>mfw I've done this all week
and we still produce more of worth than the pajheets, kek
>mostly wfh have to go in one week a month
>company bumping it up to 2 later this year
It's fricking over my comfy wfh days are over
mine has been changed to once a week... its fricking over but it's a 10 min drive from me and I always leave early when in the office anyway so I won't complain to much (but I still will)
>boss reads audit logs
>next week no more remote positions
thanks for ruining it for everyone, butthole
>WFH pill
>senior tech position I job hopped to about 3 years ago now has been pushing hard for full return to office policy
>pissed everyone off so hard including middle management that they had to dial it back to hybrid (2 days a week) as a compromise
>good number of factors blocking them from completely enforcing it are slowly getting chipped away
>pushing away people like contractors who are keeping this shit afloat
Might be time to leave for greener pastures again.
This is what management doesn't realize: they may be "soft firing" people who they wanted to initially get rid of with this, but the real people who get work done, or are important pieces of the company, also don't want to work in the office. They're going to lose talent, not just low level employees and contractors.
I've been mailing these kinds od posts to tech company CEOs. Hope at least one started controlling his workers more because of it
Doesn't seem like it'll be happening for me brother, just made my big break in an industry that acquires my occupation of meatspace, oh well I figure I'll be replaced after you given how slow robotics are.
nothing better than gooning while you wfh
are you a webshitter?
yes, how could you tell?
take a wild guess
Probably
t. webshitter
this is why money is becoming moronic and lopsided. people paid for doing literally nothing while expecting tangible goods (food, electricity, water) to be super cheap and not paying the people doing real work a good wage.
They're unironically going to doom us all and they refuse to admit it. Americans are such lazy homosexuals.
t. American
Tell me dumbass moron, what is the difference between doing absolutely nothing of worth in an office compared to doing it in your home? Explain to me in detail.
Fricking braindead homosexual.
fellow WFH here. this was me last year but now my job has sorta been turned upside so now I have to put effort in to learning a frickton of stuff I have no idea about, and a shit load more pressure I'm not used to.
still WFH though so could be worse I guess
I fix industrial equipment. Can't exactly do that from home
I probably do maybe 2-3 hours of work a day and then either sleep/play vidya until the end of the day or if there is a meeting.
that's not enlightenment, you're just in an endless cycle of carnal desires, your well will run dry eventually and soon nothing will sate you
life has never been anything more than a pursuit of physical dopamine until you croak from something
dont hate the player hate the game
are you one of those without an inner monologue?
life is more than pursuit of a single brain chemical, it's surface level to think that's all there's to it
you have never been anything more than a physical arrangement of molecules seeking self-preservation and perpetuity, spirits are not real and nothing about you is special
You're just a bundle of ego trying to rationalize things beyond your understanding "this is how it is, and there's nothing else beyond that, I know this because a youtuber said so", keep telling that to yourself, maybe it'll help with your crippling depression in the future (or present).
You don't even attempt to seek answers beyond your set in stone, physical, materialistic cope, and for it, you're guaranteed to be miserable, as I said, you'll never sate yourself chasing after earthly desires. There's no helping people who refuse to save themselves. Why engage with literature, there's smarter people for that, right? Time to engage with your 7th masturbation session of the day, at least in that brief millisecond of orgasm will you experience a state that ascetics reach for prolonged periods of time through simply meditating.
I work in the pharmaceutical field so wfh is a no go
How much are you getting paid? I have a comfy wfh programming job but the salary isn't very good.
are you europoor? how much?
leaf, 65k. i know i could make more but i'm too lazy to apply for jobs in this market.
Based. Spent my morning watching the fellowship and moving my mouse to keep my teams green. Made money doing it too. May all frens be blessed with WFH.
I WFH, but its just the same without the distractions of the office.
I can't WFH, but I'm a HS teacher and my lifestyle is not very different. Wake up at 9 pm, go to school 15 minutes away, talk about history for 3 hours to tiktok zombie teens, go back home, play vidya and do whatever I want the rest of the day.
Would you say zoomies are more moronic than previous generations?
I don't know, I've only ever taught zoomers. I'm not far from being a zoomer myself, being 29.
Astonishingly based.

>outlook, browser and ssh client on the left screen

All in a day's work.
I make more an hour but I work 15 less hours a week than my old in office position and those hours are way less intense. It comes out to be the same amount of money a week but I'm not complaining. WFH is really as good as others have made it out to be.
I only watched "training" videos at work today, read emails and used excel to calculate my budget for the next month(payment is on tuesday).
>do 3 furry sketches in 1 hour
>do absolutely nothing for the next week

It's that easy

>Get my month's workload done in like 1 and a half week and spend the rest sleeping and playing video games
Covid was the greatest thing to happen for me.
The job search for your first dev job is suicide fuel. It doesn't feel like it's going to be worth it in the end, if I even make it.
This has always been true in any field, even before working from home was a thing. Pick a job that's well below your capabilities, finish your work in a fraction of the time you're given and spend the rest looking busy. As long as you make sure not to miss deadlines nobody will have anything but positive things to say about you.
All Covid did was open more people's eyes to this truth, that working hard your whole life will not get rewarded, so you might as well do the bare minimum and pseudo-retire asap.
I wish I could code, I mean I know basic C and Python stuff but that's it
codelet here, why is that not enough? What is the industry standard level for comfy WFH jobs?
This is the way. WfH is the ultimate anti-israelite pill. It's better than being a neet too because some productivity is good for you, and ofc the pay.
>anon makes a claim
>doesn't tell what job it is
nice larp
WFH might not be as bad but a slave is a slave
i jack off like once a week while WHF
As someone who has been a NEET for years, it's not as good as you might think.
Everyday I wake up and do nothing but browse Ganker and watch some videos all day. I don't have the willpower to play anything in my backlog and I don't feel any fun or joy in anything.
You feel like life is passing by and you are being left behind. I don't know why you guys would want this.
>I don't feel any fun or joy in anything.
>You feel like life is passing by and you are being left behind.
>I don't know why you guys would want this.
I feel like this all the time already. Sitting around doing nothing is preferable to working in every instance.
why don't you get off your ass and do stuff then? You can exercise and get fit. You can learn a little of something interesting daily and become and eventually expert. There's a world of possibilities open to you and no one's demanding you do any, it's all your choice.
As someone who started a job after NEETing for 4 years
I prefer being a NEET vastly. But I spent my time doing shit I actually wanted, and that was enough to make me feel fulfilled. Not happy, but at least I had some peace of mind.
Knowing now that I'm actively spending so much of my conscious hours doing something I DON'T want to do, even for the sake of making money, is enough to make me miss being a NEET
Yeah, people who hates being a NEET with all their being just dont really have anything else they want to do unless its someone telling them what to do, sure you can hate being a NEET for lack of money and your life with a job would be better if you are poor but if you are a NEET and can afford food and gym its heaven
>gym NEETs
No, they do the same "spinning their wheels and kill time" thing they do at home with vidya at the gym
They rarely get any gains
muh high volume bro
gotta spend 3 horus per day in the gym bro
i swear it's working bro
no i have a life dude what the hell
what do you mean i should get a job or go to school bro what
come on dude you're not dedicated bro
lmao I love what I got from my workouts, I never really wanted to look like a pro BB anyways, regardless I enjoy the gym but its not my main source of joy, I prefer when something I am trying to get right in my game actually works
>I d-d-d-didn't want to get ripped anyway

Notice also how you're speaking in past tense

>neetbux
>do literlaly anything you want in life, live anywhere and go anywhere, do anything

lol
the cope is when it comes to money, once you get neetbux, its literally just liek early retirement, the cope from people saying its not a good time is a massive cope and it comes down to
>i dont enjoy life
it isnt a problem with the neetdom, its a problem with you kid
Why are you lying?
Neetbucks are always a fricking pittance, everyone you see claiming they're swimming in dough from goverment assistance from being autistic is just larping
>pittance
Coming from a wagie who has no concept of living frugally obviously
Give us a noomber then
How much is the goverment giving you in pocket change for your alleged disability?
Idk about him but in north eastern Spain (Catalonia) you get 717€ monthly, (745€ for 2024) updated every year w inflation rates.
Algo government pays 40% of your electricity bill and water bill is almost free.
On any town less than 10k pop. far from Barcelona you can buy a nice flat for 30k€, or rent one for 300€/month
If you own your house i think you can have a very nice quality of life here
I really wish I could leech off from the government due to my autism but I don’t think I meet the certain criteria for it. It’s really strict and only allowed for the most severe clinical cases.
No, anon, I hated being a neet because it was a lonely, unfulfilling existence that allowed me to pretend as if I were still a child on summer vacation every day. I could still be a neet if I wanted to be one, but I probably won’t be able to raise a family of my own some day if I do that since I’m already nearly thirty.
Sure if you want a family its impossible being a NEET, but with the way things are economically you either must have a godlike grift or must have gotten a pretty good job that risks your health to be able to afford a woman even more a family, but everyone sacrifices what they need to not want to kill themselves at the end of the day, as long as its you being the one choosing it doesnt matter what kind of damage that will cause, no regrets
I can’t say I agree that you need to have hit the lottery to be capable of supporting a family, either. You just need to be willing to not spend most of your income on video games and fast food.
People talk about the economy today as if it’s so bad that there’s no point in even trying to live…
I know a load of hopeless degenerate bums who have gfs , I know some that have like 7 kids to different girls, no job, do drugs all the time, and they still have nice gfs
I want to do that, how do I do that?
You do not actually want to do that, man. Those guys’ lives are miserable.
If you still want to do this, the answer is selling drugs. Probably opiates.
im not cool enough to sell drugs
You’re in luck: you don’t have to be even somewhat cool to sell drugs. All you need to do is buy drugs and then sell them to people. You can be the ugliest, smelliest motherfricker alive and still make money hand over fist from drug addicts
>I prefer being a NEET vastly
Sure, everyone does, until the money runs out and the generosity of everyone supporting you dries up. I'll take an annoying but easy job over being homeless
>Knowing now that I'm actively spending so much of my conscious hours doing something I DON'T want to do, even for the sake of making money, is enough to make me miss being a NEET
You're a little b***h. The issue of work isn't that you have to do something you don't want to do (grow up). The real issue is that you are wasting your time to produce results for someone else.
In school at least you were improving yourself. You were working on yourself.
Work is, well, working for someone else. Sure you can learn a few things here and there, but ultimately you're sacrificing your time for someone else. And it doesn't even pay good. I really want to watch this society crash and burn.
I don't know why you homosexuals have to be so miserable. I'm coming up on year 3 of neetdom. I've genuinely never been happier.
Skill issue
You'd still be depressed even with a job, nothing would change except now you have pile of cash you just keep saving into (bill aside)
Speaking from experience.
See, I wouldn't feel that way if I was a rich NEET.
Makes sense if you're a poor NEET though.
I can't imagine having money and thinking that rushing to the office would somehow be more fulfilling, when the only reason people actually do it is for money in the first place.
I was a neet for 10 years
I really recommend getting a part time job
full time job is not worth it imo
i saw this thread yesterday, is this a bot thread?
Guess you'll have to wait until Saturday morning to see
I have work on saturday too. Starts at 7am.

Work From Home is exceptionally rare and on the way out as it is
Whenever you see an anon bragging about WFH he's actually a NEET larping
cope moron, Just because you have no marketable skills or talent doesn't mean the rest of us fall into the dregs of society
>Work From Home is exceptionally rare
not in my c**t, seethe
Yup, they just vomit a word salad with jargon they picked up from Ganker(another neet board) and hope nobody notices
WFH isn't rare in tech but the guys saying they just play vidya all day are full of shit.
I could realistically play vidya all day but because I am in support, I have to be a bit more free and ready to respond at a moment's notice and it sucks consistently pausing things, it's horrible on the focus and enjoyment of a game. The plus side of that is the fact that as long as I am available to take calls and tickets, I can justify my position- you cannot toss the phrase "wage fraud" around with me.
There are a lot of things that are actual drawbacks from WFH. I set up in my extra room which has my guest bed and CRT for my older consoles and as a result, I next to never also feel like I play games in said area because that's the workmode area. Plus, there is guilt of me being essentially in my house for days on end. It is also only a 4 minute drive for me to go into work, so it's not like I am waking up exceptionally later to punch in or anything.
in my last IT job that wasn't even WFH I watched youtube and played on my 3DS for like 60% of the workday, sometimes I was in on weekends or was working all day and had to skip lunch but it was mostly nothing happening.
exactly
how could any company afford to maintain positions like that?
I started noticing this A LOT in Ganker in Office Space/Fight Club threads
You start prodding them a bit and they revert back to their /LULZ/ script
It's sad other anons fall for it
Yeah it's funny a lot of NEETS like to larp like they work on here, I used to do that in my NEETDOM just to see if my idea of what someone does at a certain occupation is moronic. I saw some dude say labs don't exist in manufacturing, and that was such a blatant LARP.
>wfh
>dick around all day
>work at the office
>dick around all day
woooooooooooow what a difference
i worked from home tuesday because of the snow, salary accounting for a small garage door company. Today I took a personal day, no questions asked. Apply yourselves now so you don't have to later
>NEETs are now too embarrassed to admit they're NEETs
/LULZ/ has gone soft
>two neets trip over themselves to be able to larp as the initial WFH poster
So he was right all along
lol, i've been wfh for 4 years already. Cope and seethe.
How much weight did you gain?
10-15 i think. But it's a goal of mine losing it this year.
It depends on the country I think, it's definitely still a thing here in Ireland, I'm only expected to go into the office like 2/3 days a month
t. homosexual middle manager
Maybe if you're American. The rest of the world still has comfy wfh tech jobs. Meanwhile in the US they fired like 15k workers just in the vidya industry and every single company is pushing for a return to office kek.
In "the land of the free" they really don't seem to like freedom, at least not for the average joe.
>return to office kek.
I want more pandemics, recessions, crisis etc. Normalgays break down and can't handle it, which opens up lots of opportunities. It's also just entertaining gor me
Covid was amazing tbh, I enjoyed it a lot, made a great group of online friends that turned into IRL friends and we go drinking and shooting now
True or not I don't really care. I've been sending emails to tech managers on linkedin with posts of people saying they dick around all day when they wfh. hope it comes to an end soon homosexuals
meds, now. They don't need your moronic e-mails, bloomberg and nytime already feed managers their boomer porn about what they think people do while wfh
cope and seethe homosexual
dunno about you my fellow wfh chads, but I do far less work in the office than at home. In the office all everyone does is talk constantly and eat
same, it's much easier to concentrate and get shit done without some silly product manager coming to your desk to ask you about dumb shit
put your boss on the phone ill talk to him
>at work i think what vidya i will play when i get home
>get home, too tired to play
>at work day dream about being carefree and playing vidya
>at home watch tv and daydream about the weekend when I have the energy for vidya
>spend weekends choosing, installing, modding/fixing games, briefly testing them but ultimately uninstalling them a month later
Still, notice how you never daydream about the work.
There's wisdom in that. You would be playing more video games if you didn't have to work, but work is sucking your lifeforce, like many of us experience.
I need to learn a skill so fricking bad and break out of retail hell. I don't really know what though, people always throw out "learn to code" but I know it's not anywhere close to that easy.
take the project management pill
I'm doing application management/inhouse support for our ERP system and the obvious promotion path is towards project management after 2-3 years.
Tell me about it. Is it hard/stressful?
Why does your company have an erotic roleplay system?
>Is it hard/stressful?
if you're not on top of it and have a shit team, it can be. I'm lucky that I'm in a good one and things flow pretty smooth for us. I work for the government basically so we have a good amount of resource behind us. It can be hard to get in, but look for project support roles. They're usually a bit more admin based and you learn on the job and can end up doing courses such as agile/prince 2 that are paid by the company. These are courses that are transferable and respected globally for most in the project management field.
>Tell me about it.
for me, it's mostly a lot of meetings. I have meetings at the start of the week for project updates, mid week we have new tasks/requirements coming in, and by the end of the week I take time myself to to review the data around it. I do a bit of line management too but it's chilled. We mostly just talk about TV as my team are easy going.
might be a bit too much contact with people, especially the suits here who I hate.
I'll observe the guys in my office who do it already.
someone has to do it.
>project management
Everybody wants to be a project manager for very few actual project managers jobs. Junior project manager, scheduler, technical project manager and accounting project manager are all cope and hellish jobs.
>meetings every day
>having to travel all the time
>live in hotels
>horrible staff that never cleans up no matter how many times you push your ideas and/or lay off most
>doing 3 things at once all the time
>moronic supervisors always asking you for help
>supervisors always complaining to you about debra or steven saying x thing
do NOT take the project manager pill
True. You forgot the worst part though
>Forced to work with [homosexual manager] that refuses to take advice from anyone because he's worked there for 10+ years
Luke?
Don't know anyone personally named Luke, but I've been in that situation, anon.
I lucked out because I was doing some of that remotely, but I got that promotion right when the company I was at entered the "collapse because none of the higher ups actually knows what they are doing" phase.
Dont believe 90s movies, office jobs are comfy. Especially in the smartphone era. Find a good data entry job and work your way up.
I'd tell you how I did it and escaped NEETDOM of 8 years, but I just don't know if I want to give you the pro strat. Sorry probably just going to gaslight you and say learn 2 code, I don't people shitting in my watering hole.
Then why even post homosexual
Post strat or you're LARPing
SQL, Dev ops, Excel
just b urself and do what you like while getting really good at it
Work isn't too bad. My job is not stressful.
literally me today
>be me on factory floor
>watched 24/7
>Don't even have my own work computer
The price one pays to work with their hands.
whats it like to work? I havent done it. are you on autopilot most of the time or do you remember what happens most days?
I'll tell you my observations from leaving neetdom, the work is actually not hard and usefully super inefficient/meaningless bs, the hard part is navigating the social landscape and time management.
It depends on the job. Most of my unskilled jobs in my 20s I was on autopilot. My current job requires keeping track of lots of people and I unfortunately remember what happens on most days now. I think I was happier being a low paid drone.
>I think I was happier being a low paid drone.
same, my first job was a data input monkey that required 0 thought behind what I was doing. It was so chilled and now I'm higher up it's never ending people coming to me wanting this or that. leave me alone reeeeeeeee
Yeah same here. I still don’t have legal liability but I pretty much run everything for my boss. Any time anyone in the firm has question it goes to me. I just keep getting more shit to do and more responsibility but since I’m not a manager I still actually have my own work to complete and can’t entertain every moron who wants to try and argue something they don’t understand in the slightest.
>when your "work" is vidya
I don't work and I don't want to play video games
gotta have something to escape from, or it starts to feel wrong
I want to go to work but I'm not sure anyone would employ a fat moronic schizo with a 10 year gap in his resume
coming out of covid was the best time ever for neets to pop up in the job market
>more people than normal have gaps in employment
>employers recognize that applicants are socially moronic after being cooped up for over a year
>they were basically throwing jobs at people for a while
it's not too late, but the window's closing
People are still fricked up from covid right? People used to smile at me all the time, doesn't happen anymore since covid, that or I became ugly.
people are fricked up, and generally more anxious than they were, before the coofwave
maybe you put on weight
I had the opposite happen when I stopped being fat
I stopped being in the borderline obese category this past year, lost a lot of weight, now I'm down to a healthy weight aka I look european.
maybe my problem was not being american when I was fat
Absolutely, yes. It feels pretty weird from where I’m standing because I was more of a socially inept shut-in before the pandemic than I was afterwards.
I went to the deli today and I couldn't even make eye contact with the meat slicer person.
It's fricked. My 21st birthday was in early 2020 and I'm American. I was finally feeling good after a longterm gf broke up.
These last few years have mostly sucked dick, and it seems like I have no outlet to get better socially again.
>very stressful job
>pay a little more than the average job
>end up the day completely drained of any drive
>weekends are not long enough to recuperate
I need a way out I hate my life
Working minimum wage is unironically slavery, you've got to get a better job somehow man, honestly look into trades or like being a mechanic.
>look into trades or like being a mechanic
It has been completely taken over by migrant workers and eastern Europeans with local work contracts making trade work very difficult to enter. Even providing trade work for rich people is hard with the price gap.
What the frick are you talking about, all the mechanics at my shop are hicks. You have too much defeatism.
At this point when anybody on Ganker pipes up about how there’s no point in even trying to do something I just write them off as a poster from the Evil Universe
I checked, auto mechanics jobs and offer 20 to 30k€ a year in the best cases in my country.
I wish I was at work right now instead of playing vidya
>want to work and stop being a NEET
>don't want to feel like my soul is being drained away in some repetitive task
I'll say my self-confidence has gone up since leaving neetdom because I feel in charge of my own life. But my health has declined due to the schedule, and stress.
find something you think you'd enjoy even if it's volunteering. My friend helped out at an animal shelter and it eventually lead to employment
I do work from home. Basically it happened during covid and I just never left. 4 years now of doing this same shit basically. It's great but also does feel a little boring being at home all day every day, feels like being a neet.
What's a good hobby to replace fishing?
Hiking I guess if you like the outdoors.
gundams for indoors. mountain biking outdoors (if you are wealthy)
To any anons with nothing going on besides vidya, I can also concur that gunpla is a really easy hobby to break into if you want to do something a little more involved.
Snapshitting is comfy and fun.
anon don't advocate snapshitting, you must at the minimum panel line and topcoat or you'll be the guy with 80 a-posed gunpla sitting on a shelf (I can't find a pic but it was on reddit, it was really bad)
I’m sowwy anon.
Snapshitting dirt cheap kits I picked up from hobbylobby is how I got into it.
>a-posed gunpla
That’s just soulless bug behavior. Even the shit ugly gunpla I assembled I at least bothered to try and give cool poses.
JUST WANNA PLAY VIDEO GAMES
JUST WANNA PLAY VIDEO GAMES
EVERYTHING ELSE IS SO LAME
RIP lil homie
Considering my job is 95% downtime at the office my boss doesn’t give a frick if I’m on my phone or Steam Deck since I get everything I need to done anyway.
I’m absolutely not needed in that office and if they fired me it would make no difference, but the owner is actually a really nice person since it’s a small business
yo bro, hook me up with a job
neet life is so much better
neetbux more than you make, play video games 24/7, grow old, get fat, jerk off
How the frick does one get neetbux
gotta work the system
have fun wage slaving 2/3rds of your life away ill be over here enjoying every moment of my life in pure freedom from society
I mean I have health conditions that could get me it, I just want to work up enough credits to get SSDI if I'm going that route.
I hated being a neet so much. I want more in life than just living off of my parents, never socializing and filling the void with multimedia, food and drugs
>doing menial labor that AI or a drone could do is so fulfilling !
you're just a slave coping if you hate life with absolute freedom, you absolutely hate your life with no freedom
you probably never spent one day as an actual neet and just was transitioning
ssdi is nothing compared to my neetbux lol, i literally get more than most peopel do wageslaving
I spent a couple of years after high school as a neet. I work as a “direct support professional,” a guy who takes care of and spends time with disabled people.
>I hated being a neet so much. I want more in life than just living off of my parents, never socializing and filling the void with multimedia, food and drugs
Man, I feel the same. You and the other anon who said he felt in charge of his life once he stopped being a NEET hit the nail on the head.
Sure, it's "comfy" to stay at home all day in the beginning but eventually games, movies and other distractions won't be enough to fill the void and you realize you're wasting your life away.
As men we naturally crave being independent, auto-sufficient and in control of our own lives and you'll never feel in control of your own life if you're a NEET.
Bros... i am unironically going to work in 5 fricking minutes...
Thoughts and prayers for u in this trying time, anon.
my heart goes out to you anon, I'll play video games in your honour, what should I play?
Play my favorite game for me anon. See you guys, i am going to die. Or at least feel like i am dying.
Get a job as a teacher like I did. Then you get to play vidya as often as you did when you were in school yourself, especially in the Summer.
I am not about to be harassed by the next generation of mulattoes.
I hate children and don't want to get shot.
I would but the girls dont get me going like they used to
It’s what I’m planning to do in my thirties once I’ve earned my bachelor’s. I’m hoping to go teach English in Japan eventually, hopefully before I hit forty.
That's bullshit, I want a job where I don't have homework (grading childrens' homework)
This. So much bureaucratic nonsense from it involving education, it is better to pass the kids then fail them. So I grade on a bell curve and no kid has failed my class :^). Meaning less work for me and more time for myself.
enough talking about work, jesus fricking christ - what we playing this winter morning lads?
>work related thread
>STOP TALKING ABOUT WORK!!!
Maybe stop being such an attention whoring homosexual maybe?
I am presently at work…

Dumb frogposter, be glad you have a job.
same
I grind out Butcher’s Circus achievements on Darkest Dungeon while at work. Frick the devs for putting in multiplayer achievements for a single player game
>he has a job
lucky fricker
Same bro. I’m a plastic extrusion technician working 12 hour swing shifts with a skeleton crew and ridiculous expectations. It’s killing me physically and mentally and all I want to do is play my vidya
I most likely getting laid off on Tuesday, so I guess I’ll have plenty of time for gaming pretty soon haha…
>only "real" jobs I've had is cleaning schools, and now currently hospital rooms
I don't mind my job too much because I feel like it's actually useful to someone, but the hospital I work for is fricking moronic and can't seem to consistently let me know if the patient had something contagious like covid, c diff or whatever the frick before I go inside, so I have to constantly ask or just treat every room like I'll catch super aids.
How do I get into a WFH job if all I’ve ever done is factory work?
go live in a factory
this
im sure amazon can arrange something
you need to move to something like data entry
entry level office jobs will be a good place to start
Got all of next week off, I hope I actually want to play vidya during it.
Since I'm not traveling anywhere these days to avoid the coof, I'm taking a week off at the end of the month to chill and play through Rebirth.
don't make me get my booterang OP, you lazy peon
>be NEET
>time, but no money
>constantly stressed about the future
>brain eventually turns to mush
>be wagie
>money, but no time
>tired constantly
>brain also turns to mush
I honestly haven't touched a single video game in like two weeks. I'd prefer to be working right now just to make more money.
for me, I read books wth instead of playing vidya. It means once I finish work I don't feel drained and I can play them after
part time job + casual school routine = peak comfy
living conditions may vary
working 20 hours a week at wendy's
taking 3 courses per semester, go to campus 2 days per week
the best shit
All so you can join us later moron. No shit college is fun.
yep, i'm not complaining
i'm enjoying my time for now
got a whole life of officecucking ahead of me
unironically the sex is the only thing that justifies me delaying my future
college pussy is amazing dude
The people who claim to be enjoying life while being NEETs are coping hard.
They feel depressed and empty.
not like it's better with a job, eventually you'll be back to depressed and empty but with slightly more money
Sometimes I feel depressed and empty, sure. But I'd rather have this problem in this set of conditions over any problem in a job having life.
>I get depressed when I go more than an hour not being told what to do

>literally can't imagine doing something outside of working

The number, neetboy
>the girlfriend larp
Now this is getting sad
I’m afraid that’s you, anon. You seem to think that working 40 hours a week leaves me with no free time or joie de vivre whatsoever. That’s probably because you’re an idiot who manages his time poorly, and a lazy pussy.
if I were an idiot I'd work lmao
Where's the number, neetboy?
here's the number of hours I don't waste every day on a job: 8
The number, neetboy
beg for it, slave
Not that anon, but I get $850 a month. My gf has a job that pays for everything else. I occasionally do some freelance marketing work to make extra money.
Is she okay with this? What’s the plan for the future?
She will get a big dog and make anon wear a diaper
Probably so, yeah. I hope that guy enjoys playing house while it lasts.
>Beats sitting alone in a dark room every day, wondering where it all went wrong and then not doing anything at all about it.
This is how I felt being a NEET. It's just wasting your life away no matter how you look at it.
Agreed. Now menial labor? That's something worth living for.
>Now menial labor?
Why does it have be NEETdom or menial labor?
You can easily get qualified for a skilled job nowadays. Most people are absolute morons doing the bare minimum. If you are half-decent at a skill you are already better than most.
>Why does it have be NEETdom or menial labor?
Neets have distorted tunnel-vision perception of reality, they really do believe the moment they step out of the basement their only options out there is bricklayer or landscapist
Why would I waste most of my life on any kind of labor? Can you buckbroken wagies really not come up with anything you'd rather be doing with your time?
Where's the number, neetboy?
>You can easily get qualified for a skilled job nowadays.
if you pay out the ass for a piece of paper. sheepskin effect is a b***h.
How come you didn't give a number for your neetbux, neetman?
>thinks there's only one person smart enough not to be a slave
We know it's you. Just post the number.
Give us the number, neetboy
NTA but I'm a part-time wagie who also collects neetbux. I make 600-800 a month waging and another ~350 a month in neetbux. My weeks are 2 days of work and 5 days of weekend. A perfect balance.
How can live like that?
Rent, utilities and food alone will eat all that up here.

It's completely oversaturated with scams and homosexual tech bros.
Start creating content online.
>Start creating content online.
How?
Well, every big content creator scams people at some point.
Scamming people is probably the fastest way to make money.
You could take the time and effort to make something genuinely good and find a niche audience, which leads to long term, steady income, but that takes a while.
There's tons of free software online to do whatever the frick you want.
t. went from janitor to author
If you don't plan on nursing school or continuing education its not worth working with the elderly.

get a seasonal job that pays well, im a community college dropout and as an autistic gamer applied to road construction and after a few years went from laborer to a machine operator so i get to sit in a truck with air conditioning all day working only 6 months a year and get unemployment the other half

No. There has never been a game ever made that was fun.
I'm actually looking forward to playing Victoria 3 again (tried it during the free weekend). I'm waiting for it to go on a bigger sale so I can buy it without feeling like I'm giving too much money to the parajews.
No, I will not pirate.

Say hi to your imaginary wife for the thread
I’m also allowed to leave town on the weekends despite having a full-time job.
I can't play my favorite online pvp games while i work from home because the only other people online are no life losers who are too good at the game because they have nothing better to do.
The smarter you are the less hours you need to git gud. You're just coping about not being smart enough to git gud with less hours.
Yes, I'm not that smart.
Only true for slow paced time waster shit genres.
I used to naturally be above the median in fps when I was a teen, I'd need to lose weight and juice my test to be able to get back to that baseline for anything action oriented.
Why would you need to juice your testicles?
If you thoughtfully practiced for 30-60 minutes, you'd learn more than mindlessly hacking away at something for 6-10 hours
you're the type of moron who wonders why they suck at studying, but at the same time never taking breaks, listening to music, a video, or a podcast at the same time, and dividing their attention everywhere else but the studying itself. The reason why some students don't learn anything in class is because their minds are occupied elsewhere.
But I don't blame you, school never taught us this, and if your parents didn't either, you'll never find a way to improve at something unless you seek answers yourself.
I learned this from introspection and looking at successful or talented people, most of them aren't "hard workers", they just work intelligently.
Yeah, but at least you losers are getting paid to play video games. Isn't that what you wanted?
>be unemployed
>feel bad all the time for being worthless and unable to support myself

>become unemployed
>I am fulfilled and every day is bliss
it's just so easy
The only option is to find work centered around something you intrinsically enjoy doing.
Employment wouldn't suck if society was actually worth contributing to.
It is worth contributing to.
The problem is any time you try to do something you're passionate about, or put a lot of time and research into, you get dragged down by other people that were too afraid to try anything.
Mostly family
its never been about society, society used to enable men to create families and contributing to society was just a side thing
been trying to leave my shit job for a better one for two fricking years
why wont anyone give me a chance
>2 years
The economy is just fricked. People are lying about job employment rates. There are more scams than legitimate job offers going around. Your best bet is to scope out places that are understaffed.
Then break your foot,
I've done it so many times I collect disability now because my foot is fricked
How often do you guys go to the gym per week?
4x here
home gym equipment
every single day
what is your routine?
1pl overhead press until failure
220lb bench until failure
dips controlling the negative until failure
overhead lateral raises myo reps
45lb kettlebell buddha squats and sumo squats
100lb barbell bicep curls until failure
standing skullcrushers with the same bar until failure
dead hang until failure
overhand pull ups until failure
elevated single leg squats
push ups until failure
farmers walk switching weight from each side
Of course, I don't do everything here in a single day, I work certain muscle groups and the next day let those recover while working other groups
5x, but I really enjoy it and when I tried going less I felt like I was missing hitting important areas, if you only do it to not die early 3x is probably enough
For me its banging on drums all day
Without such worthless waste of time such as school or work you are unable to enjoy insult that is video games.
WFH is still work. No deal.
It sounds even worse than normal work to me because it would transform my home into my workplace. I get why programmers and people with fake jobs like it, though.
>don't have to commute
>don't have to pretend to look busy whenever your c**t of a boss shows up just to micromanage you
>don't have to deal with mind games and pointless busywork that boomers love to give to employees, then steal credit for
>no more meetings that take up half your day because of boomers that are incapable of using technology
>you save money by being able to cook food at home
>you have more energy to get stuff done after work
WFH is a blessing in disguise for most people. The only people that hate it are people that are forced to make payments on office buildings, and boomers that use work to escape from their wives and children that they hate.
For most people, you really think so? I’m just not convinced. A couple of these are things I just don’t agree with.
>you save money by being able to cook food at home
Nothing is really keeping you from packing a lunch.
>you have more energy to get stuff done after work
I don’t see this happening for me, but I am also somebody who has been diagnosed with depression. My world would just feel a little too small if I had to work in my home.
I feel that anon. It will only get worse with a gf and then kids.
at my workplace as you enter you can get picked for a body check with metal detectors

Too relatable.
I'm 40 years old and have never worked a day in my life. I've been playing vidya and browsing the interwebs all day everyday since the '90s. Thanks for asking.
how do you pay rent, buy food etc?
Rent? What's that? I inherited a quarter acre block and I get NEETbux.
>wfh

Everyone adapts to that stuff differently. I felt the same way until I actually started getting frick-tons of work done remotely instead of getting CONSTANTLY interrupted by managers and coworker drama and office bullshit and drama, and human resources being c**ts about pointless shit like always.

are you eating and sleeping right? do you go outside in the sun very often?
>eating right
no
>sleeping right
NO
>going outside
NO
welp, there you go anon. it honestly is that simple. it isn't easy to fix those things but does get easier if you are honest with yourself about how simple the problem actually is.
it cant be that easy
Literally just choose a time (preferably before midnight, researchers suggest between 10pm and 11pm - I have to do 9pm to get 8 hours before waging) when you go to sleep and stick to it every day. Once your body gets used to going to sleep at the same time every day your resting improves.
bike pump
>bike pump
biking?
wtf its winter and snowy outside i cant do that
Play some online games like Worlds Iceborn!
Pretend work is game. And your tasks are mini quests and you gain xp
Don't worry fren, I'll play an extra hour to honor your sacrifice
I'm currently a pariah at work. The whole building gossips about me.
play on your phone or buy a handheld
OP here, just got home. Now to down half a bottle of whiskey and play some vidya
Half the kids in this band are dead now.
I have a 1 week vacation starting next monday !!! Im gonna play so much oblivion !! just started playing it for the first time and really liking it so far !!
at this point, I enjoy working more than sitting around for 7hrs a day, alternating between the same ten tabs on Ganker, reddit, news shit, finance shit and the steam store.
at this point I mustve spent more time looking for multiplayer games than actually playing them.

Should I have joined the military to napalm brown people or something, how do I feel alive?
unironically get a good shrink
may be impossible if you live in burgerland
I tried twice. The first one tried to convince me to stop exercising one hour a day because it's "excessive" and then died of a heart attack while scuba diving in the lake. He also explicitly told me I needed to stop playing Final Fantasy VII because escapism isn't healthy (OK Marche.)
The second one just charged me $200 to pretend to be my friend and acted scared of me half the time so I ghosted.
At work right now on the factory floor and we're caught up on product so just browsing Ganker while it blizzards outside.
Will NEETs ever stop winning?
living the dream...
Literally me frfr
I know that feel. I bust my ass working for scraps now. Ran out of excuses. Hoping to find something better, but this market is grim right now.
Literally me
no pussy
no work
women shouldnt have jobs
abortion should be banned everywhere
destroy feminism
the world doesnt deserve your effort
>I'll become a good wagie for some pussy
simp
its not pussy that i want. its having a wife/a serious relationship. having sex is unironically not hard and not a big deal. being in a serious relationship is.
>having sex is unironically not hard and not a big deal.
real.
the whole virgin insult was created by women that somehow got primarily used by men against other men. being a virgin is a good thing if anything.
>its not pussy that i want. its having a wife/a serious relationship
almost impossible in this day and age
it's time for AI sexbots
yeah that's one way to look at it. consider that no women and children means more of an income for yourself.
But it's Friday. Don't tell me you're dumb enough to work weekend shifts.
laugh at this homosexual lmao
if this is what i would come home to after work then i would actually try
Then get out there and make it work.
>The game is rigged
Yeah so what? When you obtain happiness all the more better.
majority of the good looking women out there are extremely fricking moronic and delusional.
just spare yourself the mental gymnastics about high school sweethearts and body counts and have a nice day now
>and body counts and have a nice day now
i can tell youre a moronic femoid with low iq lmao. no men say this
KEK how is this real
Do you ever get the feeling that females are batshit insane??
im serious when i say that a good job will fix 99% of my problems.
i fricking hate all of you 5-6 digit salary gays talking as if such thing is a given for fricking everybody else, you don't know how good your privileged ass has it.
Oh make no mistake, I'm well aware how good I got it. I'm just here to laugh.
>sonic autist
you already lost
I'm a home owner, and have more money than I know what to do with. I'm winning the game of life.
90% of it is all demoralization bullshit.
Nobody ever posts any sort of proof whatsoever.
They can't even describe a normal work day, because it's all fricking bullshit designed to demoralize you and piss you off.
Same. Honestly I don’t even care about money as long as I get enough for food/rent/vidya. I just wish my job wasn’t so soul-crushing. It would probably instantly cure half of my mental illnesses.
>Working on weekends.
Inhuman shit. You deserve better.
>applying to every possible job within my means
>not a single email or call aside from the third world recruiters
Its so over for me
How long has it been anon? A lot of companies will wait until the very last minute before looking at applications which is usually a month after they put their ad out.
a couple months
I've got a couple months left of savings then I will have to start considering dead end jobs again
Do certs actually help? I really would like to stop having these shit ass jobs
I got let go and I've been looking for a job for a month now
I'm so fricked
>healthcare professional with 180k studenloans that I'm not paying off
Surprisingly I've been playing a ton of games and I've been getting into sim racing too, never had the time or energy for that before.
Maybe I should just ride this out and kill myself once my savings run out in a few months and I can't pay rent
>Maybe I should just ride this out and kill myself once my savings run out
Nein.
I'm so used to work by now that staying home a whole day playing games becomes a bore fast
Then stop working anon. Just stop going. Don't tell me you don't have savings for at least 6 months without a job...
Almost 30, NEETing for 4 years. Eat shit wagies. This is the best time of my life.
>I don't want to go to school, I wanna play VIDYA
>I don't wanna go to school, I wannanplay VIDYA
>I don't wanna die, I wanna play VIDYA
the golem circle of life
I feel ya. In March 1st I'm gonna start my clinical pathology residency after 3 years of neetdom. I'm thinking in all those video games I'm not gonna play, because I wasted my neet years by playing the same games over and over. For someone who claims to love video games, I have actually played very few of them.
Why does it feel like you have to get lucky to get a job that doesn't suck?
My NEET savings have run dry and now I have to get a job. Shit sucks.
me in 4 months (but I am actively looking so that I do not have to take some shit job)
Get a job in security. Only shitty thing is phoneposting is ass.
I'm not playing mobile or portable games.
What about when the bad man shows up and you have to actually secure the area?
Usually its just weirdos and crackheads digging through ashtrays and garbage dumps. Verbals tend to get them to frick off usually and if not the threat/use of police/pepperspray/a GUN does the trick too.
I was but the company ran out of money and demanded we work for a month without pay until they (hopefully) paid us. I quit immediately but man I miss it like you wouldn't believe.
Get a switch or steam deck. I played through XCOM2 and am currently grinding levels in SMT Nocturne. Just have a good portable charger or two and you're good to go.
pajeets have stolen my job. they must be deported. effective immediately. i hate these ugly disgusting creatures. go to the mall? see em everywhere. go for a walk i still see them.
the bad guys won ww2. just an fyi
>Thread about to die
>I have work in the morning
>So do many of you
I have 4 days off and I'm replaying Death Stranding
I keep farting in my room and it smells like stinky poo farts lol also I drank a lot of vodka
