Anyone amazed at how inefficient modern workplaces and work life are? Why doesn’t it change? Out of a 40 hour work week probably 5-10 hours are actually work. The rest is wasted time. Wasted opportunity. Commuting is a massive waste of time and effectively is like shaving years off your life. Why doesn’t this change? Am I going crazy?
Why is 9-5 a thing?

Idk its fairly inconsiderate for people who'd rather work 3-11
Dunno that only applies to office workers. I do at least 7-8 hours of actual work every single day because I'm efficient as fuck and time flies when you're working. If you sit in an office and do nothing all day, your day is filled with dread and time goes by so fucking slowly. God damn I enjoy being a tradie. I even get paid pretty ok.
Its changing right now bro, think about how many people switched over to remote because of chink flu
It’s called the 4 Hour Life. Look up Paul Skallas
It’s a way to enforce consistency
>Out of a 40 hour work week probably 5-10 hours are actually work
As an Ernst & Young employy I would like to dispute this claim... my big 4 homies can possibly confirm this..
Every hour is recorded under a project code, description of work performed required when submitting.
Imagine 9-5, except it's more than that, and also you can't get away being lazy. THIS is Wagecuck Ultra 9001
Britbong here, I work the stereotypical 9-5 Mon Friday in IT at a bank, I even have to work Bank Holidays ironically.
I agree the 40 hour work week is a fucking meme, I do 5-10 hours tops and that's on a good week. Even though we're now all working remote I'm still expected to be online for 40+ hours a week and give a daily update. It's a fucking farce.
I can't wait to quit after I've built up the Resume for 2/3 years.
It's not the worst if you can find a way to improve yourself or enjoy those wasted hours. Read, write something, study a foreign language, play games on your phone, something. Half of my job is spent learning how finance works and studying shitcoins, and the other half is spent playing waifu gachas
There was research done about this and people actually PREFER 40 hour work weeks since it's "full-time". Employers tried lowering it but it's not as prestigious or not seen as a viable "career" if it's not full-time 40 hours.
>He fell for the big 4 meme
Out of everyone i graduated with, those who started working for the big 4 ended up being years behind in their careers (on top of working twice the hours). I really dont understand how they still manage to get away with it and have half the graduates wanting to work for them.
(((studies))) confirm the 40 hour work week is good for you, goy.
Energy and side product harvesting by our (((overlord))) just like we do to pigs and cows routinely
It's the money and the prestige of being with a big firm. Most people that I've known who worked as investment bankers with a big 4 or top 10 Wall St firm sacrifice their 20s (and early 30s) to make big money, and then migrate to higher roles in smaller firms with less demanding hours. At that point they have the net worth and work experience to safely get a role that they want without the worry or stress of losing their job and being destitute.
when I was a line worker at Daimler (Mercedes) before uni, it was pretty much only actual work there, for all of the hours
Spend all that downtime learning to code, stupid ass
I mean... there are negative connotations with part-time work.
Normies are drones.
(((Working 9 to 5))) at the office is the biggest meme ever. Most people weaseled their way into a contract and have perfected doing as little as possible. Besides that they are brainless idiots that like to communicate to eachother in office jargon that has no meaning but solidifies your position in the company anyways.
And to make this all possible millions if not billions of liters of gasoline are burnt every single day in an excruciatingly ineffective manner because "we have to go to the office"
Its all one big joke
Can confirm, it's a big 4 US bank, it's a fucking meme and every grad I know is going to move in a year or so for something less stressful and pointless.
thats total bullshit and you know it user, it's designed to keep you just tired enough to not think, buy shit, and be grateful for your weekend
Here's a great example of a former banker who left Morgan Stanley to open their own business. They worked hard for a couple of years, saved money and made good investments, and then quit and are running their business as they want to (and still making good money but without the corpo lifestyle).
Why do it then? Is it worth it? Doesn’t seem like it unless you’re making at least $300k a year.
Do you work in accounting? I had 2 interview opportunities with EY but went small firm because I would kill myself working B4 hours.
Bingo
You mean starting literally any kind of business to launder your bank money
If people had the option of working fewer hours for the same money I guarantee they”d take it. Well men would, women would unironically make powerpoints all day for free.
I work six 12-hour shifts per fortnight and even that is absolutely superior to ‘cuckin it 9 to 5
>women would unironically make powerpoints all day for free.

I work in IT. There was no way that the company I work for would let people work from home. Chink flu changed that. We scrambled to get everyone on remote when the order came down. Now, they have let go of about 50% of the company and the rest are remote. Profits are higher now than before but (((mangers))) are complaining because nobody attends their zoom meetings or conference calls. Even my CTO has been picking up basic bitch help desk tickets. I’m the senior admin and I’ve reduced him to my PO creator, Amazon ordered and call bitch.
I wonder how many places will stay remote.
Fellow IT here. I learned about 15 years ago to never work for any banks or major corporations. Take a 5k pay cut and go work for a small Corp or medium private business. More days off and they cherish you more. Plus there is rarely any real oversight because they can’t afford anyone else.

Anons?
thanks lad, could I still leave in a year and find a better paying job? I'm on £36k (Outside london)
Based on what I’m seeing (we have sites all across the US and are based out of California) almost all will start offering permanent remote work for their most productive employees. But I’m already seeing the more dumb employees trying to get back on a site. They know they are useless unless they are attending meetings or sucking managers cocks.
normies should be executed
It’s modern day slavery except your masters learned a long time ago that when you keep people in physical chains they tend to rebel and put their captors heads on pikes. They adapted and gutless Shabbos goyim play along because that’s what everyone else is doing and they wouldn’t dare go against the herd.
Did you not see all the parentheses ?
Oh yeah, I guess I didn't. Thank you Fellow Rightwing Ethno Nationalist.
>8000 replies and no one mentions how the commies are at fault.
prior to industrial revolution there was no such thing as "labor laws". In the free and natural world people worked as needed. if the cows got out on sat night you needed to go round them up....if there was nothing to do on tues afternoon you rested.
as the industrial revolution came, the commies stupidly suggested limits, the >160iq rockefellers 5d chessed the retarded filthy nigs and twisted it into wage slavery.
the answer is to never be an employee. there is really no upside for you in this. all jobs should be "consulting" or "contract" work.
Next month I'll be moving out of my cuckshed apartment for a big house on several acres in a 90% white and overwhelmingly conservative small town. My mortgage will be about 2/3 of my current rent. I've lived in this town before and I loved it. I was planning to retire there after I /makeit/ with my linkies but the timeline has been accelerated by the pandemic. My fulltime remote work arrangement was only made possible by the China Flu, so I'd like to thank Winnie the Pooh for freeing me from living in a pozzed, diverse blue city and wasting time on a commute and being surrounded by normalfags and soibois at the office.
To top it off, I got a huge discount on the house plus they're doing all repairs I requested because the sellers are retiring boomers desperate to sell and nobody is buying in that market. Adjusted for inflation, I'm only paying a few thousand more than they did when they bought the house. It feels good to finally win one against the boomers.
I guess that would be up to the queen in your case. Here in freedom land we can leave whenever we want. For the first 10 years of my career I didn’t stay longer than two years at a company. Job hopping is the only way to get raises in IT in America. Don’t know about England.
