Consider the following hypothetical job offer:
> You are getting paid to do nothing.
> You get $80k a year, plus benefits
> You must show up to work 5 days a week, and be in the office for 8 hours a day
> You can't use your phone, Internet, or a computer
> You cannot work on any thing while present
Would you take this job?
No, I want to be productive and feel like my life has a purpose.
Hell yeah, I could finally get around to my "to read" book list.
No.
My wife and I work together about 50 hours a week and are on track to make ~$400K this year.
come up with better parameters. I can just show up, sleep in my cubicle, then fuck off
Just don't sleep and use the eight hours to nap. Perfect amount of sleep and it ain't against the rules!
> No sleeping on the job
> You must be properly dressed and be sober
No napping. You have a desk, and a chair. Your manager cares about "butts in seats".
Can I have a tennis ball to throw around and maybe pretend is my little work buddy
Sure, but only as long as your coworkers don't complain. This is a regular old office; same rules apply.
Yeah I'll do it
fuck it i'd just buy a nintendo switch
yeah i'd take it. I'd have a quiet place to sleep for 8 hours a night and a fuck ton of money to prepare for the imminent collapse of western civilization
Yes.
I spend the 8 hours sleeping, or eating, or reading a book or watching TV or movies (don't need internet for that)
Too easy
Sleeping is against the rules, you'll be fired. See
NIGGERS TONGUE MY ANUS
Too bad, I accepted the job as listed in the OP and I already won your shitty game that you didn't think through properly
Also I'll still just spend the time watching TV/movies I put on a USB, or reading books
Either way I win the easiest job in the world
Fuck off faget. You're just countering every option with no you can't do that.
right, the job offer is to do nothing; sleeping is something. You can only do thing you in a normal office, except work.
>People don't sleep in a normal office
lmao
wtenglish
If I can bring books and magazines to read then fuck yeah
What you are are describing does not look like working. It looks like meditation, which a lot of people could do easily.
But not me. I wouldn't do anything for only 80K per year. That would be quite a pay cut.
It's not a hypothetical though. A friend went through this while she was waiting for a big contract to be signed. She had to show up to work, but wasn't allowed to actually do anything while there. The contract had to be signed before any money could be allocated.
I would just sing the super mario bros super show theme song for 8 hours straight every day
>you can't use your phone, internet, or computer
You can if you don't get caught
So basically, you can't work but you have to pretend that you are working?
I schleep then
Why not. Sounds good. Would do meditation for 8 hours and after a while would be a zen as buddah.
You fags this is just a rough draft for OP. He'll refine his bullshit "rules" based on the holes you pick into it. Prepare to see this cancer tomorrow.
I already do this putting in ~11 hours a day at a factory. Spend the majority of it jogging and lifting saw horses.
Mine as well obtain gainz while getting paid.
>> You cannot work on any thing while present
Breathing is working on being alive you retarded faggot. Your post sucks donkey dick and your mom will die in her sleep tonight unless you reply with some "rules" that aren't total garbage.
gonna hang out here to watch this thread die (just like OP's mom will lol)
Good question, are we working to survive or occupy our time
Id feel like im waiting to die, probably develop insomnia and inadvertantly plan out my own hobbies
I accept these terms. Ambiguity in a contract is in favour of the one who did not draft it, so I sleep while present. I make the office my 8 hours of sleep for the day, and I commute from my place of sleep to the rest of my life.
Yes, with literally zero hesitation.
Back to stormfront you go, shitskin.
yeah id fuckin take it, i would show up, pull my sleeping bag out and blast into dream land every day, wake n bake, and go out and party.
Sure. I'll spend the time reading books. I have a fat backlog of shit I want to read. Very little of it is productive, just edifying.
Yes.
Damn right I would. Gibs me that, I will just meditate for eight god damn hours.
>You cannot work on any thing while present
Can I read?
>Sleeping is against the rules
Wasn't when I started the job and nothing in the contract about changing terms. I just have to show up for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. If it weren't for the weekend I wouldn't even bother having a bedroom at home.
>he doesn't remember the niggers tongue my anus meme
I fucking hate newfags
Allow to sleep?
nah
Yes. A year of that shit and I'm student loan debt free with plenty remaining.
Plus if I dont do every thing you say here I'll get a great referral.
yes
>No, I want to be productive and feel like my life has a purpose.
i-if I'm not making money to my slave master my life has no purpose
this
>your coworkers
wow wow wow, I have coworkers? you didn't say that before, in that case I will not take the job.
Hello sleep cycle.
This is honestly moving the goalposts. Next you will tell me I can throw kinky orgys and video them for distribution. Piss off.
Breathing is something.
All content on Yea Forums is a meme, relevance matters, its a forced meme to a cheap bump, nobody has to respect you for that
Also everyone who came here after the habbo raid is a newfag riding the bliss of punk nostalgia, elitist authority is the antithesis of anonymity
If I can do literally anything, such as draw, read, ect. I would, but if I'm forced to be in my chair and have nothing but a blank face on I couldn't because I'd go crazy.
Not as crazy as prisoners in 23 hours a day of solitary confinement. They don’t go home or get paid.
With the way my life is going, yes I would def take this job
Then use the money I get for hobbies on the weekends or opportunities to make more
FUCK YEA I SLEEP
I'm going to start a romance with the receptionist
I don't know how retarded, or autistically fixated you have to be to not understand. You show up, you sit at a desk, eyes forward, breathe, and that's it. No twirling your thumbs, no making paper airplanes. Sit, stare, blink, breathe.
Forced to spend 8 hours where I could (hand)write the book I've been wanting to write. Sell that, make more money. I could do this.
> You cannot work on any thing while present
Sounds like my current job. The hell couldn't be worse. But I need the money, and I don’t get another job.
