I wish I worked in an office

This.

Depends on the job. Working out while having a job moving 50+ lbs in 110F weather on asphalt is a bitch.

>tfw deads suck because low back too burnt after work

Alone 70k

If you want a family 100k or your spouse and you have to make 60k minimum each

Tldr no

It’s pretty easy.
Go early if you get mentally drained by work and set aside time for socialising and hobbies. It’s hardly rocket surgery.

I'm just waiting for my manager to say one more dumb thing to me so I can validate quitting

I'm a wagecuck and my work starts pretty early and is kinda far away so no chance of going before.
I have to go to the gym about 6 pm, which is packed full at that time and that sucks. It also means that I get home late and have dinner later at night too, which sucks as well. But I guess that's how it goes. It's better thank not going to the gym at all, right

>tfw plan to stay at home with my dad into my thirties (22 currently)
>tfw gonna be saving so much money

Don't have a GF anyway and after watching my dad get fucked through the courts I'm good. Best part is that me and him are both going to be working for the same agency. Have a home gym as well which me and him both work out at almost daily.

Not really. Chad is no one's bitch.

at least you're fucking college girls making a living right?

Why the fuck would you do that to yourself? It's not worth it for $15 an hour. Smarter thing would be to get a part-time job and use the extra time to work on your skills.

>planning on living with parents until you are in your thirties
>dont have a GF anyway

gee wonder why

not at all

>$15
haha I wish, I'm getting $12 an hour
the only reason I haven't quit is because I live with my mom and she only has a part time job, I pay half the bills and if I have no money coming in, we could very well lose our house

Because my face is disgusting and I plan on getting several surgeries you simp.

That's the kind of job you get with community college

Ok, your mom needs to get a real job and you need to at least go to community college like other user said to pull yourself out of this rut.

Even if you were attractive could you imagine bringing a woman over to 'your dads place' when you are 30 years old. That's fucking cringe, shows the girl you are still immature or dependent on your parents.

If you are really serious about getting 'several surgeries' I think you are just way too insecure and have way too low of a self image to ever really make it.

Unironically get a better job, nothing against you personally but I never understood why people complain about their jobs when they can set aside an hour for resume workshops and applications. It’s probably not likely they’re doing anything else productive anyway

Not really, there are low-level IT, sales and blue collar positions you can get into which are a huge step up from fast food.

It's always greener on the other side. Office work is mind numbing. I'd rather be using my body so when i get home i have the mental stamina to do hobbies i like rather than watching TV and looking at my phone

Work the same hours as you.
It fucking sucks mentally but gainwise it's basically cocoon mode.

>work as software dev
>I watch twitch / YouTube for like 1-2 hours a day of my work time

Sometimes I feel really bad about it desu. But I’m just a lazy fuck and can’t focus properly for more than 6 hours.
How can I dope my fucking brain? I want to be more productive

Don't really give a fuck what a woman thinks, if the need arises I'll book a hotel room for the night.

I'm already scheduled for a rhino just before the Christmas break bro, honestly anything after this is just a bonus that I want but don't really need.

Attached: 1541206155573.gif (202x360, 1.84M)

I want to but I don't think I could manage as it is now, what I really want to do is move to a cheaper state and just live on my own and start going to school but at the same time I would feel like shit just leaving my mom by herself knowing she isn't able to live off of her own income right now.

I've put applications in quite a bit and posted my resume on some websites, I haven't gotten any calls from decent paying jobs and the only ones that reached out are minimum wage fast food shit, I'm still trying though.

Become a manager, and life becomes easy. I make my team do all the work while I attend a few meetings and "strategize" with my coworkers over beers.

ummmm., I'm going to need you to go ahead and come in tomorrow. So if you could be here around 9, that would be great. Okay?

Sounds fine to me dude, as long as your not getting pulled about it who gives a fuck?

My mother went to community college and is a nurse making 90k a year

Please at least have a back up plan, be it school or other employment lined up. I left a low end fast food job w/o anything else lined up and I spent almost 18 months unemployed. I eventually found work at a job I love, but fuck me, that year and a half was dull, tedious, and soulcrushing.

After having an office job and being a roofer now, I feel like being a teacher would be enough hands on and mental work and I like history/English anyway so I’m going for that. Good benefits and such

Somehow I felt like I could use the first 5-8 years of my career to set myself aside from the mass a bit, to eventually free lance later in life. So that I could choose my own hours and also how many etc etc.
But that’s just not gonna happen - I am pretty good but if you consider how many actual huge nerds / geniuses there are out there that are really fucking good because they end up spending every minute of their free time on developing shit as well ... yeah, can’t keep up with those, I wasn’t born with the drive for that.

Tfw I’m browsing fit while wageslaving

Make your mindset to work goal-oriented. If you have work to do, then blast through it. When it's done, and either there's nothing more to do, you need to wait until someone finishes their part so you can continue, or you are sure you can finish it before way the deadline, you can slack off guilt free.

Unless you're trying to develop some go getter attitude

I do have a different job I might be getting, it's minimum wage and a pretty trash job but I know some people there and know that I could at least handle it while looking for something better, I'm still waiting on a reply but if I end up quitting my current job (which I hopefully will very soon) I should have no problem getting it.

Yeah, I think that’s a decent way to look at it.
I have no problem focusing on interesting tasks, like something where I have to implement some interesting logic or debug something - I can usually blast through that.
But sometimes there are just some mundane tasks and boring / dull yet somewhat obscure tasks and I just end up doing these way slower than I could.

True. Usually hit the hay around 6pm.
Sometimes I can hang on with post gym high until 6:30.... but the next night I gotta make up for it.

Your life sounds awful my dude

user, this is a stupid post

Adderal is what you seek

Enjoy the time with your father user. Seem like you two are bros. You never know when it might be over...

I worked that schedule before fucking hated it after a while. 9a-6p six days a week now. Much better imop. Plus the job is easy as fuck and I can work out every day after work

>tfw slaving away in front of a screen doing dull cad shit, occasionally lurking Jow Forums so I don't go mad
Can't wait to get back on site as an asm honestly I do not understand how humans can be happy sat still staring at a fucking screen all day with bossman breathing down their neck. But fuck them, I'm only here for a short while

Stop browsing Reddit while at work boss

>he hur dur de dur me no care what other people think

yeah okay, if thats the case, why EVER move out of your parents house? why bother showing up in a nice outfit to a job interview? why bother brushing your teeth or showering?

Just got a raise from $12 to $15 an hour WOOOOOHOOOO IM RICHHHHHHH

I hate going to the gym after work when I'm in the office, but when I'm on site it's fine
The only benefit to being in the office is that I don't need to be in til half 8/9 so I can get to the gym before

No. Unless you already have half of your life sorted, i.e relationships, solid social life, education then wagecucking at an office job is the most soul crushing, mind numbing shit you can do.

Just over a year ago I was stuck on a two year marketing contract earning really really shitty money, I'd literally be sat in a freezing cold office all day in the middle of bum-fuck nowhere staring at a screen without talking to a soul all day. All of my old school friends were at Uni or actually doing interesting things apart from me, and I was really, really fucking depressed because of it.

At some point they realised I didn't give a fuck about the job anymore so we came to an agreement on me leaving.

Fast forward to now 2 years later and I work in a really fucking interesting and exciting job that I love which I couldn't have even imagined myself doing a few years ago, I guess it goes to show there's always something you should strive for and look forward to even if it seems shitty now.

I have honestly considered it. How awesome must life be when your mind is just sharp - no fucking getting distracted or having a hard time staying focused, feeling tired, brain fog, whatever. Just straight on the task with all of your brains capabilities.
Must be fucking awesome - might even be worth the time of your life you lose.

how are people with miserable careers not NPCs

how do you let yourself get fucked into spending 8 hours a day doing something you hate for 40 years

Attached: 1502414313488.png (298x260, 62K)

I know that terrible 3-11pm shift. Luckily it changed week to week, one week 6am-3pm, other 3pm-11pm. Now I can only settle for 3pm shift ending, anything after that kind of fucks with your life.

What's wrong with that? Why leave your home and spend so much money on rent and food when you can save all that money. Especially since he doesn't plan on getting married. That's just a jew scheme that forces you to throw money into rotation.

I wanted to do the same but I really want to leave my home town even though rent, food, gym, etc.will take 60% of my paycheck.

Because that's life and you don't get to do what you "love" for a good living like in some fairy tale.

this. i really don't understand the logic behind "I hate this job, I live for the two days a week I'm away from it, but I'm going to continue working it for the majority of my life until maybe I can retire when I'm too old to do anything interesting."
The only way I can rationalize it is those people are actual NPCs, just following their programming.

Life will never be rose petals and gumdrops but you're an idiot if you think it's impossible for anyone to make money doing something they enjoy.

No. I spent all day weedeating and spraying cancer causing glyphosate in 95+ degree weather. I can't make gains with accumulated stress and lack of sleep. Fuck this. How to obtain bodybuilding NEET lifestyle?

What are best careers that will allow me to raise a family on a single income? Women joining the workforce has been disastrous for children's health.

Probably. Im 23 and starting an office job in 2 months making $130k a year

It works well at first but be careful not to take it too much, once you start relying on it to be productive you just feel normal when you're on it, and much worse when you're not

Exactly. Its too good to give up for some woman.
>parents bought house for 5 family members
>siblings leave, now just 3 people

Gotta have a symbiotic relationship though, NEET bums are scum.

Hey man you obviously have some managing skills try and get in somehwere better man you deserve better

wtf do you do?

This. I personally don't recommend it
>t. Adderall junkie

Youre a god

lmao at you poor manlets

Try having more money you idiots

This guy seems cool and well adjusted.

Software dev

what job did you switch to

Yeah, that'll do it.
I'm curious, it's obviously an important job, but what's the replacement threat level? Whether it be abroad or AI?
$130k is a pretty good chunk, I assume the market isn't just flooded by STEM graduates every semester?

I work in construction and I'm chasing the light at the end of the tunnel that is a desk job.
Almost a year into it now, and starting to get itchy.
The only thing that soothes my nerves and pain is that I'm getting fulltime $18/hr, x1.5 ovr, and x2 on Sundays.

literally me but with dominos

Go before work.
>b-but I work early...
Then you'll beat the crowd at the gym.

My coworkers keep teasing me about this.
My normal sleep schedule now is 10:30-6:30. Compared to my college days, these are both very early. But those assholes go to sleep at like 8:30 and wake up at 4 in the morning.
Weirdos.

Based

I work in Aviation, it's an interesting job with a lot of shit involved. I spend a lot of days running after planes on the airfield after they've landed and others boarding passengers onto them.

It's very much a social job and there is such a broad range of people in it.

Move to a better company, if you already have the management experience try going for management at a grocery store like HEB or Whole Foods, they pay much better.

Work in finance and make 120K for a 45 hr a week gig. I've got plenty of money and time, just no one to spend it with.

I could do it, I used to do it.
I just want the extra hour and a half of sleep.

>community college

For what? There’s people out there who make 100k+ who have never gone to school, or barley get their associates.


T. Welders, store directors, oil workers personal trainers

Things like petroleum eng. pay a fuck ton but you will either live away from home or have a long ass commute in a shitty city.

Yep, the only good thing is the fat paycheck at the end of the week and the fact that you get at least a bit of exercise.

not but anything programming related can't be automated because it would be too advanced for an AI to handle. Its like humans not being able to make people from raw elements.

Treat finding another job as an actual part-time job. It's very boomer advice but you need to be putting in a decent amount of time sending resumes after you get off work at least.

Is a wagecuck defined as someone making a low salary at an hourly wage? Or is it just anybody who works in order to support themselves financially?

Also how is this related to Jow Forums?

For cutting edge stuff, definitely. But how many companies need brand new software? How much can be cut up and repurposed for other businesses?
I just think of automated driving, and how it's going to buttfuck the truck drivers in 20 years. Just because something is complicated, doesn't mean it's safe forever.

Happy for you, what's the new job?
