I really need LINK to take off. I got in 2017 for the memes. Had fun in 2018-2019 fudding and shitposting. 2020, I need LINK to save me, or I'm unironically going to neck myself. I cant keep wage cucking anymore.

>>20199735
Hang in there, wagie

>>20199735
You working from home?

>>20199735
C'mon wagie, get another redbull in! Eat another 10 Niacin! Drink another monster! Eat another 10 Niacin! Don't want to let the company down!

Same. Just accept it and stop complaining. I go to work for 8hrs, do as little as possible, job hunt on my phone the entire time, and research crypto. When I thought about it too much I wanted to kill myself. It’s just a job anon. Stack some money and fantasize about quitting. Hang in there

>>20199735
>Hey guys, time for the daily stand up!
*snorts latte*
>We're really behind on the latest spring so we've bought everyone bean bag chairs and hired a personal barista!
>Now whenever you fail a code review, everyone in the office gets a shot at you with the new nerf guns!
>Hahahaha, I love having fun here. You wouldn't get this kind of ~company culture~ at one of those fancy corporate jobs, would ya!
>Now, onto the brass tacks.
>Turns out [hipster meme framework] is now deprecated so we need to move on to [latest hipster meme framework]
>I know you wanted to see your wife's son before his clarinet recital, Mike, but I'm afraid you're gonna need to work overtime for the next 4 months
>But don't worry, this will all blow over after our fourth round of funding though

>>20199735
the worst is the webcam meetings. none of the boomers know how to mute. However I get by because one of my co-workers is a milf with big titties so I just put her on fullscreen and stare out those milkies.

>>20199897
Yeah, WFH since early March and probably permanently. Its just hard for me to focus on anything work related anymore. I just keep wanting to put things off

>>20199936
Try your best to do the bare minimum so you don't get fired. Things are going to get tough for everyone soon and you're going to like having a job.

>>20199917
I would prefer this over my typical work day (rednecks asking me retarded questions, me fixing other engineer’s mistakes literally full time). For anyone young on here: DONT GET A FUCKING BSME. DO COMPUTER SCIENCE. GET A REMOTE JOB AND LEARN CRYPTO

>>20199932
I literally have a minimum of 3 hours worth of meetings a day. Its fucking horrendous. Is that average for everyone else too?

>>20200070
>3 hours worth of meetings a day
>working from home
Nigga what? Literally dont "go" (LOL).

>>20200070
Stop being a whiny bitch. I have to work in the office everyday and wear a mask the whole fucking time. Be grateful

>>20200070
depends on the day, sometimes I have none, sometimes it's half my day. worst is when they're spaced out so that you can't have adequate chill time between them

>>20199912
Exactly what I’m doing.
Even went for an interview but ultimately they decided not to hire anyone cos of the rona.
Fuck these times. Working from home destroyed my dedication to my current job

>>20200134
I guess you're right. This wfh shit is just a double edged sword
>>20200271
Definitely looking as well

>>20200070
Unless you need to actively participate, just get your coworkers used to you being on mute or with the webcam off, that's how I did it, I just listen in in case I need to say something and have stocks or games up on my own pc.

>>20200617
this

>>20200070
I just outright refuse to do meetings with a "No thank you.". Anything that can be informed to me in a meeting can most likely be done in a memo. Stop wasting my time.

>>20200070
Yeah but I’m like 5 hrs a day and I have to be actively participating during all of them too

I quite like my job. I'm a jack of all trades IT guy. Some days I'm building C# desktop applications, other days I'm writing VBA scripts to automate SAP, Database work and SSIS stuff other days. I'm all over the place.

>>20199735
Same man, god I'm so glad I'm working from home during the start of the bullrun

>>20199976
Is this a bad time to job hunt?

>>20201776
Do you work for a company, or for the government?

>>20202082
Company.

i hold exactly 1btc but i am going to be evicted next month. i could sell some of my bitcoin but just cant bring myself to it. ive been looking into sleeping in cars, looks comfy once you figure it out desu

>>20202286
it gets real cold in the car at night

>>20201776
I'm more of a data guy but luckily right before this shit hit I was automating a significant portion of my job so now I mainly do ad hoc shit. it's pretty lit most of the time

>NO MASK
>NO SERVICE

>>20201891
Possibly the worst.
Companies aren’t hiring, they’re staffing their open positions within their company.
My firm has a halt on recruiting as a whole.

>>20202159
Sweet. Whats your background man? I'm in data analytics and hate it. Want to do general IT. AD, networking. Sys admin shit

>>20202871
Fuck I wanna switch jobs so bad

>>20202930
>>20202871
At least you didn't quit your job in February like me.

>no job prospects
>no unemployment money

>>20203615
Fuck that sucks. What is your plan?

>>20203665
Luckily my wife has a high-paying job at the moment (which is why I quit my job, to move).

I just signed up for LinkedIn Premium and I'm sending my emails to higher-ups at random. No bites so far, and I have no connections in the new area. Sucks.

>Tfw pretty weird and rarely talk
>People make fun of me because they know I can take it
>Lately HR got wind off it
>They're making fun of me now as well

>>20203812
Im not sure of your background but it seems like the government IT sector has a ton of federally contracted positions right now. Keep tailoring your resume and best of luck.

>>20200134
This. If you wfh and complain about it, fuck you. I have to wear a mask all fucking day, and deal with normies nonstop.

>>20199735
Any Work From Homies? Took a nice hour nap at the start of my shift today

>>20199917
I worked at a start up like this for a summer, I wouldn't go back after finishing college

Idk what you fags are complaining about. Working from home sounds like a blessing

>>20204296
been working from home since 2017, I'm kind of agoraphobic though, so I intentionally sought this out...
It's pretty comfy for waging, but I'm trying my best to find a way out of this cage too

I FUCKING HATE WAGECAGING FUCK THIS SHIT SLAVERY 2020

>tfw in the process of buying a nice house in a small town to WFH permanently, something that management would not have considered before the China Flu
>tfw getting an unbelievable deal on the house because the retiring boomer owners are desperate to sell and it's a buyer's market right now (they accepted my offer for about 60% of what it was appraised at pre-pandemic)
>tfw leaving behind cuckshed apartments in the city for good
>tfw replacing nonwhite Section 8 shithead neighbors that speak Spanish/ebonics/ching chong with respectful, gainfully employed white neighbors
>tfw the LINK moon mission is starting
The pandemic has been very good for me

>>20204836
don't let it ware down your will, there has to be a way out of this slavery, there just has to.. ;-;

>>20199912
>Its just a job
Not them but I needed to read this

>>20202930
go work at Chainlink.

>>20199735
Just quit

>>20199869

>>20204836
I'm seriously considering LIVING IN THE SOCIETY sometimes...

>>20202907
I've really got no good advice. I was brought on because I made a good sql query at a previous job. Sorry man.

>>20200999
Checked

I’ve turned into a fat fuck since being a wagie. The only thing to look forward to in the day is eating lunch, so I overdose on carbs and sugar to feel good for 30mins if that, by the time I return to the office I feel like necking myself again. Next highlight of day is going for a piss and walking back to my office at half my normal walking speed.

>>20199912
>Hang
>in
>there

Ive been at this place 6 months. Going to try to make it another 6 months before i get the fuck out of here. I went from a large recognized IT company to a much smaller company and its full of fucking mentally retarded boomers

>>20202907
Fuck off. We’re full

>>20204296
Getting paid to shitpost is lit.

>>20199869
Should say "30 more years to go"

>>20200070
I have systematically ignored and cultivated an image that I'm too busy to attend meetings over the last 8 years at my job. People almost stopped inviting me to meetings entirely. Feels good man. Trust me it's possible. People that work in offices are just dumb sheep. Meetings are just ways for lazy people to try and dish off their work to other lazy people. I'm at the point now where I pretty much tell people to get lost when I don't want to deal with their problems.

>>20206700
get out of the MSP business. find a small business and be their sole sysadmin.

>>20204044
