I work in an office and it’s lirterally driving me crazy. A woman I used to have a friendly rapport with has been giving me hostile vibes and it’s so fucking awkward every time I see her. Plus, just the constant drone of people coughing, sneezing, talking, and sighing is enough to make me want to bash my head against a wall. The one plus is my boss is pretty chill and lets me work remotely pretty often.

I'm a waiter/bartender. I have the opportunity to work in an actual corporate office. I'm scared I'll end up like a depressed/crazy drone. My current job is kinda shit. I hate dealing with drunk asshole, but I feel like working in a office might be worse.
I know it depends on the company, but what's the pros and cons of working in a office?

Honestly the only thing that keeps me going is this; benefits, job security, and I got only 14 more yrs till I can retire w/full payout,etc.

I'll be 50 years old and able to walk out in decent shape both physically and financial wise. I'd prob kill myself if I had to work the same shit job till age 65 or older.

i work in an office and it's great!

I take enough caffeine pills to keep me motivated so I can process paper faster. You really need to time it because the pizza and carbs that will sit and fester in your stomach will cause massive bolating and diarrhea. So if you eat the free pizza BEFORE you take your caffeine pills you can double down with advil to knock out those side effects. Thank God for employee health care!

Sure I cry EVERY SINGLE DAY in the upper floor parking lot where no one can see me but it's really the side effects of doing to much drugs to numb the pain.

My boss always tells us how IMPORTANT we are to the company because without us how can they take vegas trips?

Plus you always have the company parties to look forward to where you get to dress up and pretend you enjoy hearing your boss talk about that vegas trip they took while you were working and all the sweet deals they got at the luxor.

Just watch what you say because hr will get you. They're here for the company not really for you. Hence the name Human Protection Department.

Honestly it's not bad. your just trading in your freedom for security.

You need a job you like with coworkers you like, and a flexible schedule (work from home, etc). Then it's good.

If you're stuck in a job you hate/aren't very good at, boy is it hell.

i'm pretty busy most of the time, either with daily operations or taking on new clients. work in international shipping btw. there's always problems popping up that need to be quashed. feels good when shipments go smoothly. it's a small office and everyone is pretty chill. when things are slow, just dick around on the internet or talk shit with friends in group chat. in the summer, leave early a couple days a week and go drive on the beach to "fish" and crack some brews.

life's not bad frens.

Never said that, mr. jealous faglord. I don't make a lot of money, but the work/life balance is perfect for the amount I do get paid.

I mean, it sure as hell beats working in a factory. I would even prefer this job if I made a little less than my highest paying factory job. I sit around in my office, fuck off on 4chan, until the company owner (local business) brings a piece of paper with things that need to be changed on the company website. He does this once a day. It's usually tedious shit nowadays like adding product listings or changing prices, but when I first started, I was hired to completely overhaul their website because it was broken. I got hired because they see that I'm studying comp sci at uni.

Both of those. However the final straw for me was trying to take a dump in a stall with five other guys also dropping deuces, farting and coughing in surrounding stalls with those paper mache tier walls and big gaps under them.

My last job was a nightmare of cunty management, insecure work, endless restructuring, extreme monitoring (including getting a 'please explain' if your messenger icon went to inactive/away for more than 15 minutes) and tiny workspaces. But the bathroom situation was just the nail in the coffin.
