I break my break at a warehouse for a living, quit complaining nigger.
Is Mett Man worth watching?
>I break my break
Based
Office jobs are comfy
you're an idiot, did you think you'd be like jim or something? office work is hell on earth, all the shit talking, backstabbing, politics. its a terrible environment for people.
I miss working in office, was a file clerk for years before I got laid off. Now I work in a warehouse and have to stand all day, it sucks
Sounds like someone’s got a case of the Mondays
This could been avoided if you watched Office Space.
I hate my office job. I hate my coworkers. I hate what society has become, and I hate my life.
If you make good money, don’t complain, faggot.
Lol unless you're an exec like don or pete it sucks
LE COFFEE MEMES
What do you do all day?

>Not secretly jacking off countless times at your office
Oh wait, don't tell me you don't have your own office.
They probably made bank at Initech.
Stop living off the taxpayer, NEET.
Most of the people posting here would have Milton Waddams' experience minus the ending.
This thread makes me wonder about all the shills. Are you guys all crammed into a little office somewhere or is it more of a work from home type thing? I remember CTR (hillary's shills from 2016) were supposedly in a little office and even got made fun of by their bosses for being overworked losers.
Should have watched the office UK for a more accurate representation.
I still remember that thread where one guy went to the CTR office and could see a nervous looking guy peeping behind the blinds.
>he isn’t a contractor
>his commute is longer than the thirty feet it takes to walk to his home office
>he has resigned himself to a maximum of 3 weeks of vacation per year for the rest of his working life

>he thinks his company 401k will save him from working until death
>he has to pretend to like people he has absolutely nothing in common with and go to faggoty “work parties” where alcohol isn’t served
>he has to complete performance reviews and justify every earthly reason why he’s entitled to a 0.75% raise
>he thanks his boss for a $100 Christmas bonus
Why the fuck would The Office make you want to work an office job?
Electrician here, would rather take an office job any day. My first job tho I got tricked into working a video store because of Randall from Clerks and it turned out to be the best job ever
Please no more
Low iq trump supporter seethes over his minimum wage labour job, all this and more at 11.
Makes it look like its not boring and you can fuck around and do crazy shit and you will never get laid off even if you work at a poorly managed company in a dying industry
At least you have a job
do you guys browse here at work?
should i stop?
>he doesn't bluntly tell his boss to raise his wage or he'll shoot up the place

They would actually be more like Michael Bolton minus the hack.
It was that or Neetdom
Yep
Nop

Because we don’t want to become a narco state, and because whites are actually civilized.

I get 6 days every 2 years...
I love my office job

I've only been at mine for 5 months but it's alright so far too

That only works in Real Darwinian countries like Mexico
because the boss judge jury prison guards and everyone in the immediate vicinity will shoot back in MURICA
Why?
this, i just want to become a farmer and live in peace
Nice
If you really mean it, I'm happy for you
You would still have tons of bullshit to deal with as a farmer.
You're right having job security in the current year is a bad thing.
Uhh, I don't believe in minimum wage. I'll take my $3/hour thank you very much.
So anons, do you enjoy/have interest in what you do?

No.

I'm 26, so I'm hoping it goes well and I feel like I'm progressing well for my age with no degree, but I'd rather be a youtuber.

Yeah...
The IT pajeets at my company have a death grip on people’s internet histories. I bring my personal laptop and use my phone as a hotspot to browse at work
So you live in Asia, right?
Depends on the company.
I'm broing it up with IT guys (because I'm the only male in accounting) so my browsing history is safe
>tfw earning almost $100k as a casino dealer
Easiest job I've ever had and I've had dozens.
Would recommend if you can do basic arithmetic in your head quickly, and are not a total sperg (lol)
guess what? physical labour jobs like electrical or plumbing are no better. At least in an Office you're in a heated building, you can stay warm. You can also save your physical energy for activities you actually want to pursue instead of blowing all your daily energy on using tools, climbing stairs, hammering, etc/
I work at a Primark Store in Ireland, part time with overtime if needed. 80% I'm away from customers and the supervisors let the workers work away so no meddling.
It's honestly cosy, zero stress and my co workers are sound. Also I don't start till 2pm which is handy. Take the Part time pill, if you're in the position to.
I work in the parks department for my city and shitpost from the work truck constantly
> mfw Americans don't even get enough of a yearly raise to follow inflation, meaning they unironically make less money every year.
If it wasn't for pride and parents I'd probably be happily neeting away right. Working is fucking awful and the compensation just isn't worth the stress.
I was the network admin. Of course I did
Here’s your 1/3 of your waking life bro
My office job is great. My only complaint is sitting on the computer all day. Lots of arm/shoulder pain.
>not having a comfy room you share with 2 other people
Neither do you, unless you count the breadcrumbs
It's more like half of your waking life, 1/3rd of your total life.
Now remove the dividers and add several conniving dickheads
>he works for a family run business and isn't a member of the family
By far not the worse thing I browsed at job.
you need to find something you want to do. if you're a youtube junkie, start making some content, could be anything. Poo videos, lets plays. Anything. best case scenario you earn enough subs one day to create a patreon. worst case scenario, your channel doesn't take off. I can't reveal specifics here, but I once had a great idea for youtube content and my channel took off, I got 10k subs in one week and a couple videos were trending on the front page of youtube andReddit. Again, I can't go into details or else you might know my stuff but my channel and the content ultimately didn't work out and I lost out on a gold mine of potential subscribers
Nah I'm white, in financial services and above 6ft so the patriarchy is looking after me.

I'm afraid that if I get promoted I will have to actually work and not browse internet 5 hours a day
>financial services

Everyone knows.
I got a degree in computer science and I am having a really hard time finding a job.
If you're in finance, no matter your ethnicity, you are a Jew
Stop crying, manbaby. I like what I do, but I actually chose a career, got a degree, and don't have to take entry level data shoveling jobs.
"Hell on earth" - maybe if you're an uneducated incel with no social skills, imagination, and the attention span of an ADHD gnat.
You'll never know what it's like to have an admin take your phone calls, while you relax with a free cappuchino and shitpost on /tv. Or an office. Or a reserved parking spot. Or perks like 401k matching, decent healthcare, and paid vacations. Or working with people who like you.
Yeah, real hell on earth here. I might ramble down the hall later to flirt with that cute new admin.
You stay miserable shitposting from your basement Fortress Of Suckitude.
I had one but got laid off for literally no reason. They even admitted it was just because they wanted to downsize, but then hired a bunch of chinks right after. This industry is trash and the wages are flattening fast, get out while you can.
Congrats, you fell for the comp sci meme to keep wages low! so did i
They've been doing away with barriers in the more up-to-date companies. Now everything's open air, which apparently gives employees more stress as they're open to being spied on by everyone.
>he marries into the family and inherits the business
I don't know about him but I mostly file things, send emails, draft documents based on said emails etc

>tranny shut-ins think everyone who works blue collar jobs is a trump supporting american
The worker's revolution won't happen until you freaks are in a mass grave. Larping bourgeois scum.
No, they come stand next to me and I can always smell their various smells. Mostly vanilla. I can also meet their eyes as they come out of women's toilet, which is situated right in front of my eyes.
eh
I do smell the heavy perfume of the middle aged french guy to my right tho. All day, erry day.
how will there be a workers' revolution once automation and AI have taken all the jobs?

Sounds like comfy kino, wish I could have that life.

The people who actually still have jobs, and have to work to support the elites and the NEETs, are going to kill both the capitalists and the leeches. Can't wait, NEETs are fucking subhuman.

You have no right to complain about muh office job or muh warehouse job if you are reflexively opposed to communism.
There's literally an alternative right there in front of your fucking nose and you pussies just rehearse the brainwashing lines you were taught by your schoolteachers.

>muh secret police & conflation of communism + authoritarianism
>muh venezuela (not a communist country btw)
If you think America is so great, then why not try and create a free society where workers aren't treated like slaves? Oh you're too scared and you think your red scare education was in the right? Then shut up and keep hammering away at that keyboard, you fucking monkey.

youre an idiot. everyone complaining about working a shit job in this thread are the pathetic losers that the system requires to work those jobs. if they were smarter and more motivated and able to work in actually cool jobs they wouldnt be in this thread complaining
Wouldn't be that surprising since Democrats are intent on bringing in waves of illegals to devalue his work.
Oooh, 32 pounds, your children will live the easy life off that wealth!
I make more than that in an hour.
That's not really how it works my man, it's about half luck and half skill. You can be a goddamned genius but if you're consistently in the wrong place at the wrong time you'll never get anywhere.
as someone that just spent almost a year out of college in neetdom applying for hundreds of jobs and getting around 4 interviews, and as someone who then got 3 interviews in one week and got a job offer today at arguably the top engineering firm in the world, I know that's how it works. Being smart doesnt mean shit, but putting yourself in those positions is what it's all about. Luck accounts for very little if you are actively trying to throw yourself into the position that luck might one time in 100 put you in. I know this because I got the interviews and jobs after taking steps to be more attractive to employers and by going out and contacting the employers first. And badgering them
based off this short interaction he's probably much more likeable than you though.
>he thinks America is a meritocracy
Reply to this post ONLY if you work as a based Engineer
>Luck accounts for very little
Survivorship bias, I have a 3.88 GPA and despite getting a few jobs, was always unlucky to have the companies close or my entire division get cut. Luck plays a gigantic part in success, telling yourself otherwise is just rationalization to make the world appear more fair when it's not. Success is only proportional to effort up to a certain point, beyond that there's no sense putting more in.
I literally did not say this. I only said that nobody complaining about working a shit job in this thread are the type of people that would make it to a good position in a capitalistic society. I DIDN'T say that everyone that works a bad job is there because they don't have the ability to perform a better job.
Does software engineer count?
>go to uni to study something that is fun as fuck

reminder that the grandfather of modern economics expected us to have a 15hr work week by now, but we don’t because we have to make our ruling class billionaires richer and ought to be complacent little wagies :^)
I guess he's in France.
we get access to guns but we try not to do PvE because then mods lay down the banhammer and admins try to add a bunch of new rules to the server
Life is not fair, that doesn't automatically mean luck accounts for a gigantic part of success. Luck accounts for making someone mega-successful, like a bill gates or jeff bezos, or famous actors. Gigantic moguls that were in the right place at the right time with their product to define the market. The fact that you only cite your fucking GPA and think that means dick, and then say you were "unlucky" that your divisions and companies closed. Do you know what you should have done? Have foresight in your career to account for a potential layoff. Be hired at a company with a long history to a program that you know isn't going anywhere. If you can't get that job initially, use your experience at your current job to get interviews that those companies while you still work for the first company. Put yourself in the best position possible. And yes, it's sometimes luck if the dumbass HR person doesn't cut your resume so that the manager can see it. But that doesn't give you an excuse to stop inputting effort and cry about it. I know the system is bullshit and nepotistic, but that doesn't mean I'm going to be the failure that feels that shit
>NEET confirmed.
Post a meme when you're done taking the garbage out for mommy.
Congratulations on not reading a single thing I said, or at least not comprehending it. All those people you just referred to? They'll openly admit that they got lucky. Sure, they put in the work, but they also got lucky and that's why they're mega-rich instead of just underappreciated geniuses.
>getting salty about my GPA, saying I should have basically pulled out a tarot deck to see the future
Fuck off nigger, grow a fucking brain. You're acting like I've said I'm a NEET and working is pointless. Maybe if you give that good old reading comprehension a try you'll realize why you look totally retarded to everyone reading this conversation.
youre literally a retard, calling me a retard for not reading what you wrote when in the first fucking line I said those people were lucky. Good job genius. I had a 3.7 gpa, I'm not salty about your GPA, but if you weren't such a fool you would know that the difference between a 3.0 and a 4.0 GPA to a company is zero if you have exactly what they're looking for in demonstrated experience and skill that others don't have. I know you're not a neet, but you're still a pathetic faggot who doesn't take responsibility for his own unhappiness. Just shut the fuck up.
We don't see enough of red pepe. We need more of him
not really you like the idea of owning a farm but the actual work will literally kill you
Yep, I'm safe since I'm using incognito mode.
Why is this guy always sweaty and red?
he's a frog
Even boomers forgot about that. Anyways, 2008 taught many that you can get away with cucking entire nations for marginal profits so I don't expect us to reverse course until it's simply too late.
"Luck" is for the lazy and weak minded.
It's like when incels and betas sperg "He's so lucky to have a girlfriend!".
Luck has nothing to do with it. If you think it does, you lose before you even try.
"Luck" is superstition.
How do they smell after coming out of the restroom? Do you smell their ass musk?
32 pound from one set of items. Made 580 pound last month on top of my usual wage simply from reselling.
And I don't have kids. Or debt. And 9k saved away for a trip somewhere soon. I'm doing alright compared to most 25 year olds.
Luck plays a huge part in success. The only reason why successful people don't want to admit that is their ego. Yeah it is true that you can yourself in the best positions to be successful but that never guarantees success.
You know what is really lucky? Not being hit by a car. No matter how well prepared you are to be successful at life it can end due to someone else's fault.
I got into online affiliate marketing within the past year and have been making an extra couple hundred a month without much effort. The only reason why I got into that was because I was chatting in a certain discord at the right time. If I had logged on an hour later I would had never even knew it existed.
Alright anons, how the fuq do i get lucky then. Im sick and tired of being a retarded poorfag

Acquire skills and then start networking. The more you put yourself out there the better chance of you being at the right place at the right time.
Luck plays a part of success, but not every success, and the percent contribution of "luck" wildly varies from success to success. Not getting hit by a car when there are just a bunch of everyday drivers on the road with you is not lucky. Not getting hit by a car that spun off the highway at you is extremely lucky. But both times you weren't hit by a car. Somewhere in the world, even during scenario 1 where you didn't see the drunk driver car spinning off the highway, that car did spin off the highway and hit someone. Are you "lucky" for not being that person? If you say yes, then you trivialize the word and value of "luck" and it becomes just an everyday phenomenon, becoming meaningless.
You got into online affiliate marketing because of "luck." Maybe someone that was really motivated looking for ways to make money on the side and found it all by himself just because he was doing research. You got lucky, that person just did the work
i'm literally looking up casino dealers in burgerland now .. apparently you're meant to tip every so often and tip $1 for every hand you win .. what retarded shit is this?
Ameribrapps insist you tip them for doing their jobs.
It's real spastic shit.
>not living somewhere with a normalfag tax
Excuse me but there's something terribly wrong with that image you posted.
I get paid the full working wage here.
I'd feel like a fucking leech asking for tips.Literal 'gib me dat.' culture.
The worker isn't the one paying the normalfag tax, user.
yeah, sounds comfy man
ameriguns are actually huge faggots who will actually not shoot anyone as soon as the authority does anything to them
anything else that's not so new?
If you are walking down the street one day and you get hit by a car that is considered unlucky. If you take the opposite of that scenario then it would be lucky that you did not get hit by a car. It does not devalue the word. You are lucky to be alive, born in the time where we can have this conversation with who knows how long of a distance between us, living in places that are better off then most places in the world.
If you take the scenario again and instead of dying you live but you will be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of your life. If you have 2 people, Person A who is an average guy who works at an office, and Person B who is a college athlete that is on their way to make it as a professional. Person B's luck is worst than Person A's.
