Ah, another day WFH, doing absolutely nothing
I actually have work I have to get done today, it sucks bros. Copying and pasting mainly but I'd rather be napping.
Good morning my dear chap! I hope you’ve not been working at all.
Yesterday I did a fair bit of data entry. Boring, but easy to do while watching a movie. Hardly work at all.
>tfw There’s rumours of a Christmas bonus, and I already got a raise last week.
Wfh chads: do you have a position that didn’t require a degree or autism? I went to school for engineering and have been working for 2 years, but wfh jobs are rare in my field and I want a different career.
What's the easiest to acquire with job?
WFH* job
>have to take a break from watching Star Trek to dial into a scrum
You’re manufacturing engineer right?
I have a degree in political science. I work as a purchasing/ sourcing manager. I just got on with a small weird family business and grew from there. The key is to look for smaller more unique companies.
Some user was taking about An insurance company in a previous thread, I think it was Amerisave.
Daily checkin to the based thread
I have a 3 week Sprint to finish two tickets. Life is good fellow kings
Good news from me: Firm went permanently WFH this week.I have been doing this for 9 months,and will continue doing absolutely nothing and getting paid.
Also, getting a big amount of cash to set up home office and internet bills paid for each month.
>already have home office
>investing entire home office sum into crypto
Love this thread.
I got in an argument with boss because i dont want to work anymore for this company and he said he will fire me with the HR approves. I'll receive a fat bag of money if this happens.
So happy but so anxious to this happen, please god!
Im sick of wfh lads, im stagnating and my pajeet manager is on my ass
Why not continue doing nothing and getting paid until you find a better job with more money? Thats what I'm doing.
>and my pajeet manager is on my ass
So send him a 3 page single spaced email detailing a bunch of jargon nonsense and claim that's what you're working on. He won't read it but he should back off.
I'm stagnating too but it's not hard to start taking online courses during working hours. I'm getting an acquisitions accreditation right now even though I don't think I'll be going into that field when I quit my current job. I just do it because it assuages some of my guilt from playing hundreds of hours of vidya since WFH started.
Because they made us come back to the office in november and i was disgusted by how they are making us work (masks, team leaders must come more than other employees, etc). That was the last straw.
Bruh you should have just filed a request for permanent work from home because of covid, then started prep for a lawsuit if they said no. I mean quitting a job you hate isn't ever a bad move, but you could have squeezed them a bit more I think.
When they make me go back in I'm planning to get some anime masks to make it clear what a fucking joke I think it all is. I might get one with ebola-chan and corona-chan on it, too.
Fuck that. Piss your boss off and get that severance cash.
Preach Brother. We all gonna make it.
>tfw the house of cards is starting to collapse
>people are starting to be scrutinous of what I say I'm doing
>boss asked me today to start sending him a typed status report in addition to what I say in the weekly standup
Honestly I'm not sweating it. Starting my search for a new job
You are part right fren but the mental part was starting to get to me, i was hating boss and company too much. Also some guys tried that home office thing and they got denied hard.
Do you know how you fucked up? I'm skating by saying I'm "doing research" into project proposals all day. I already did all the research in like 3 hours, but nobody I work with knows how to look up regulations/laws/directives so they think it takes weeks.
Why do you think they started doing that?
>but the mental part was starting to get to me, i was hating boss and company too much.
Fair enough man. Last job I hated gave me a drinking problem and I had to go to rehab to get it sorted out. Good luck out there.
I need a break, the longest i've taken is a week off and that was in august, im mentally drained.
I hate working. My job isn't something mindless like data entry. I sometimes wish it were. The C++ codebase I'm dealing with right now is atrocious.
What vidya are my WFH chads playing? I started playing The Last Remnant while I sit in meetings on Teams.
>account exec for big saas company
>get 10-20 leads a day
>add them to automated email cadence in 10 mins
>wait for replies
>take 2-3 customer meetings/week
>we sell remote work solutions so it’s easy as fuck right now, everyone buys
>going to clear 135k this year working 10 hours a week
This is what comfy feels like boys. Cheers
