I didn't get that impression. There's nothing wrong with being honest. None of the guys care about the woman's blubbering anyway.

lel at normies that can't stand what neets live with always

>>19107135
I hate these team huddle meetings and I never say what I truly feel- that I hope the lockdown lasts forever

I'm the only optimistic one out of my friends. They cling on to any headline about new covid cases as if they're almost excited about it. One thing I've learned over the last two months is people secretly enjoy larping like it's the end of the world. Half of the population would rather fork reality and choose to live in their own little world unburdened by facts.

>>19107135
>>Next person's turn to update. They literally break down crying with how isolated they are
Fucking retard normies can't take literally 3 months of "isolation" without breaking down about it

>>19107135
Not that deep my man, I certainly don’t think that puts you at cunt status.
My work is doing pretty good right now. Were downgrading our office to a small space if people need to collaborate or entertain clients/have meetings. Looks like we’re trialling remote work until EoY and everyone is pretty happy about it! The amount of free time I get now without the 1hour commute each way and being able to do dumb house chores midday is sweet. Just need to make sure I actually get out and exercise.

Honestly if it weren't for college this quarantine would be the best time in my life. All my "friends" are constantly whining about festivals and parties being cancelled. And I'm perfectly happy working on my family farm.

Im unironically doing worse because lockdown has increased my social requirements. Gf is now at home all day every day so no privacy. Family and friends webcamming non stop.

I just want some alone time but i can't even go out for a long walk or my gf would either want to come or be suspicious.

>>19107135
Same situation.

>team hangout calls to check in on mental health.
>girls bring up the struggles of not being with friends and family.
>The parents on the team rant about the isolation their kids have to deal with and how they don’t know how their kids will turn out because of all of this.
>good boys talk about how scary the world is right now.
>I comment that this has been a great time to get through a good amount of yard work.
>...
>One of the older ladies on the call says ”yeahhh... I think it’s fair to say everyone’s getting a little tired of their yards” and everyone laughs.

Fuck everyone and their fucking norm or shit. This has been one of the few times I’ve been happy.

Not sure at all how this isolation factor feels for some. I had orders cut to get on a covid detail in march. Been busy yelling at normies on test sites. Wish I was locked up at home with my gitter, shootin the shit with my neighbors.

>>19107663
yep. OP is fucked

they asked for a truthful take and you gave them one. dont be a faggot and take some pride for christs sake. no reason to let them drag you down

>>19107135
don't feel bad

there is literally nothing wrong with you being happy what so ever. it's not your fault that some nt woman can't handle being alone. you don't have to apologize for your well being.

I got a call from the CEO of my company asking how things were going, I told her my ethical concerns about my boss etc, ended up out of a job, been NEET 10 years now. Fuck it if you are a cpa and 2 plus 2 is no longer 4 how can you take pride in your work

Lesson never tell the truth or work for a female

>>19107185
>There's nothing wrong with being honest.
There's a myriad things that can be potentially wrong with being honest.

Honesty being a "virtue" is the biggest scam.

Rather than being sincere to a fault practice to tell people what they want or need to hear. It'll get you further in life.

>>19107135
Lol OP I take Quetiapine

Im Schizoid and I feel good too. Maybe because I talk to myself all the time lol this quarantine is great

>>19108181
If you can accept questionable ethics and mindless work you should just get a comfy job working for the government. Just keep HR happy and pretend you like plebbit crap. Takes some practice but once you get it you can take it easy and get paid a decent wage every month.

>>19107611

>>19108181
>10yr neet CPA
I'm really thinking of giving up on this exam. All I do these days is study and fail practice tests and the test keeps getting postponed due to Corona. I don't see the point, my last boss was a cpa and she was still a cubicle cuck who went home to her wine and her cats and her shitty condo. And then I read shit like this. I just want to do taxes and be self employed idgaf about making a ton of money or working 70 hrs a week at some firm

I live in a north european autismocracy, here people aren't really bothered by not being next to others all day.

>>19107611

>>19107135

I keep up the "omg lockdown so hard hope it ends soon" charade but I'm like you OP. I'm having a great time. Don't have to commute, get to relax in my own home. Don't have interact with people. Don't have to feel bad about missing out on social engagements.

It doesnt matter you dont work in an office anymore. In six months, all that will matter is the quality of your work.

>>19107175
It blows my mind that people have all the time in the world (some have extra cash too) to work on all the so called "projects" in their lives and all they can do is bitch about it and go on tiktok. This quarantine has been my biggest fucking confidence boost. I objectively accomplish more and feel better. This shit has motivated me to give corporate culture the finger and manage my own shit. I've read so many novels and have actually learned to meditate that now I'm actively engaged in self cognitive behavioral therapy to just push my self to do more and work harder.

Isolation is one of the unhealthiest things. Humans are social animals. Good for you if you're an autist who isn't affected by it, but that's not how it is for most people.

So is schizoid from the same mental disorder miasma as aspergers

Because the being bore and having an internal fantasy world is me

>>19108509
I should read more.

is being an autist becoming the new meta?
for sure we are winning out lately
and with technology taking over it seems like autists will continue to win for the foreseeable future

>>19107135
same here.
I miss only one thing, and that's the gym. But there I only miss the equipment, not the people. I actually have a home gym but it's pretty shit and definitely nowhere near the same thing as the actual gym.
Other than that I could not possibly care less about the lockdown. Overall my mental state has improved from not having to be forced through a bunch of uncomfortable social situations.

>>19108627
Reading helps you learn and as long as it's well written it'll make you a better communicator. Doesn't even have to be novels or even fiction. Just read and keep growing so you aren't made a slave.

Hope your job is secure or you're going to be the first person fired

They break down from isolation. While you endured your entire life.

>>19107659

>>19107135
Stuff like this is why I don't have hope that workplaces, colleges, etc. are not going to shift to home. Normies especially women view these things as social activities. NEET's or like-minded people may view college as a place to just get a degree so they can hopefully get a decent job, but to the normie college is a place for "experiences".

My job said they’d call us weekly just to check in, they only did that for two weeks, so twice, and I havent heard from them since. A win in my book as i hate acting happy about being a slave

>>19108393
Finish the exam even if you dont use it it makes you stand out to normies

>>19107375
Man up and tell your women you want to be alone. If she gets suspicious, who gives a shit.

>>19107135
Fuck Normies. I straight up refuse to go back into the office.

>>19107135
>Next person's turn to update. They literally break down crying with how isolated they are
Disgusting, at the same time makes me whish I could treat a job like being in school hanging out with friends.

since the shutdown i have:

-stopped looking at porn entirely
-been reading a lot more
-made a vegetable garden
-saved a ton of money on my commute
-learned a lot about myself

i don't want to go back to the soulsucking office bros

I'm schizophrenic and this coronavirus has saved my sanity, I was on a one-way trip to the nuthouse cos of my shitty job and retarded colleagues.

>>19108521
>staying at home for a bit is like prison isolation
Weak.
Also pick up a phone and call someone you fucking loser.

>>19107375
I'm kinda like you, my job offers me much time alone so I really enjoy it. But with this lockdown, my wife perfectly respects my time spent alone even if my children need attention.
I'm not 100% out of the room, but I can have my time and she understands it.

so tl;dr: speak to your wife, faggot

>>19108509
It really does feel like it's peeled back the thin veneer on all the 'successful' people around me. I'm literally in the best shape of my entire life, I completed my entire reading list for the year, got a small side source of income up and running and completed some of my best professional work of my career thus far.
It's like everyone else was polished tin and we're dull iron, we don't look better than everyone else until the pressure ratchets up and then we shine.

>>19107135
same except i always say i'm "hanging in there" but i "want to get back to the office because it's easier."

Calling someone isn't the same as being in someone's presence. It's better than nothing but not a substitute. Touching people is healthy. I don't mean just sex, but patting someone on the back, hugging, shaking hands, touching their arm, etc. There are studies about this showing that touch reduces stress, improves trust, etc. Stroking a premature baby with your finger will help it survive and develop better. You can say it's weak but that doesn't change human nature. There are animals that do the same thing, grooming each other, etc. This social distancing shit is gonna fuck people up hard if we seriously continue with it "until there's a vaccine".

>>19111075
closing down normalnigger stores, restaurants, schools, and offices isn't preventing you from visiting friends and families. these people are fucking retarded and deserve to suffer.

lmao, you should always say what is on your mind betas. I always say how I am loving lockdown and feeling more productive than ever. If any normie cunt has problems with that -they can fuck off.

>>19111095
School and work are most people's main social outlets. You can't just shut them down without any replacements and expect it to have no effect. And people ARE being prevented from travelling to visit friends and family (depending on the jurisdiction).

>>19111208
>And people ARE being prevented from travelling to visit friends and family (depending on the jurisdiction).

no they aren't and i live on the NJ/PA border which is one of the worst areas in the country. unless you're a dumb nigger who lives on the other side of the world, in which case you deserve isolation for being so selfish.

aside from shittier selections at the grocery store, i'm loving this lockdown. more efficient working from home. i get 1.5 hours back every day due to no commute. i can straight up ignore boring fucking meetings whereas before i would have to sit there and look interested. it's great.

>>19107501
>Extroverts
the other end of the bell curve is as non-normie as the introvert end. Personally I enjoy extroverts because they treat my asperger symptoms as charming idiosyncrasies.
It's all the people in the middle that could do with an elbow strike to the larynx.

Humans are also the most diverse species on the planet.

Have been working from home while home schooling my kid. Been amazing. My workplace is all neets and we have had 2-3 voice calls over the last six weeks, mostly to bitch about the guy who owns the business. Overall been great. Everyone more productive, no commute etc

That could really go either way. Not missing commute, good. Better than being in office? Red flag if phrased poorly. And you're making threads like this on /biz/, so it definitely was phrased poorly. You can point out the good bits, be the 'staying positive' guy. Anything more and you're out.

>>19108521
>Isolation is one of the unhealthiest things
true, but schizoids aren't really isolated since they interact a lot online. It's enough socialization to not go insane. Without internet the quarantine would be harder.

It seems schizoids and autists prefer interacting through text with people.

>>19107135
This is all well & good. The only issue with this whole ordeal is job insecurity.

I'd be comfy as fuck if I knew I had a 0% chance of losing my job. But there's always a chance, especially if things get worse and not better. That nagging insecurity is the worst feeling, especially since I'm a brand new hire (literally was brought on right before shit hit the fan in the US)

>>19107185
>There's nothing wrong with being honest
yes there is and us schizoids know it too well as we usually dgaf telling the truth. when i really speak my mind freely people start to freak out because of my wild ideas so i constantly have to censor myself. that's why being a schizoid sucks, you have to fake normality around others not to freak them out.

To counterbalance this mood just be sure to pretend you're worried for some of your coworkers and offer to let them vent to you. That way no one will be bothered by how smug and comfy you are.

there’s a book called “have a nice doomsday” that’s all about this. it’s a bit outdated now, but it’s a worthwhile read to contextualize why people like to escape into these end of the world fantasies.

especially now it’s pretty important. helps you contextualize a lot of the hysteria around covid. still think it’s a dangerous pandemic and that we’re best off flattening the curve by staying inside. people who are losing their minds are both terrified about and excited for a new paradigm, but they refuse to accept any of the changes that come along with it. they want the fantasy of being the messiah in dark times without the reality of a gradual shift.
