Love my job, I can’t stand the people. Fortune 100 data engineer. AMA

>he willingly works for someone else

>>21283177
Deep down we all welcome the sweet release of death

>>21283177
yes, i work part time at a small coffee shop

>>21283187
What the fuck do you do all day?

I dont work on biz

>>21283177
When STA hits $1, I am walking the fuck out

>>21283177
Nope. Only reason why I do it is purely to exchange my time and labor from money. That is literally it

>>21283177
checked.
yes. retail management at a fairly slow paced location. enough to keep busy most days, occasional really boring day.

also pastor a church.

Yep. HVAC engineer. I design hospitals and American manufacturing plants. It's very rewarding.

Profissional NEET. It's not to bad, pops give me money and i invest in crypto.

10% of the time when I can get into a nice flow state. It's nice to feel accomplishment. But in a perfect world I would be doing it for myself and not for someone else.

>>21283177
Yes but also this >>21283196
I like analytical chemistry, but if I had the cash I could start my own lab.

I love my job, but hate my coworkers, clients, and most of the industry.

>>21283177
Used to work in retail. Didn't hate it desu.

Sure, one would need to deal with some absolute assholes now and then, but you also get the brainlets who get up in your face over unreasonable demands who get absolutely seething when you gave them a polite smile and a
>"I'm sorry, but we're not allowed to do that"
>"It's against store policy"
>"I could make an order for you, but we can't get an estimate on arrival date"
Some of the faces one gor from that are memories I will cheerish to my death

It's the small things

Yeah kind of

I’m an investigator for UK government tax, but we investigate whether self employed people should really be employed (and pay the right amount)

I see it similar to Eliot Ness and you investigate and meet lots of interesting celebs and companies

I get to work whenever I want, from home or the office, and it’s basically like you get a case and work it til it’s done, no one checking up on you or anything, they just hire the right people who will work it properly to their own pace. It’s also very rewarding as we have a team tally of money saved for the taxpayer each year, last year it was £30 million, enough to run a few schools.

>>21283296
The industry will work you to the bone though. Some of the hardest worked and lowest payed engineers out there...besides civil. Literally every week there is a deadline.

>>21283177
Yes, although I'd certainly trade it for the ability to not need to work. In the world where I need a job, I'm very happy.

Yeah oil service company. Even its getting chucked now. Also slowly dying. Buy nkla

>>21283230
I mostly go to meetings with insane people, interact with psychopathic executives who don’t understand tech. Honestly most of my time is dedicated to coming up with technical documentation to explain why we CANT do a certain project.
However sometimes I do real work and deliver something of value. I work a lot with AWS, Microsoft, Google cloud and these days we are focused on making cloud agnostic frameworks that become POCs but never go live.
I probably do about 10 hours of real work a week on average, probably 35 hours in total. This is simply because I’m super efficient at my job, specifically I’m very talented at telling people no.
Seriously though, read Dilbert if you want to understand more. My life is basically Dilbert.

>>21283177
>English teacher
>students flirt with me
>20 hours of work a week plus a few planning
>make like double the average salary of the fairly nice city i work in + free housing
>easy delivery for great cheap tasty foods
>super cheap alcohol
Honestly miss it, was going to go back but wuflu hit

I'm a scrum master with about 8 months experience. It's been good, although at times I could be busier so I have to find new reading and learning material constantly but there's plenty of it out there.

Salary is good also at 6 figures. Pay a fuck load of tax though

No, which is why i invested in crypto as a possible escape.

it's her, sweetie. more than just guys browse here

>Some of the hardest worked and lowest payed engineers out there...besides civil. Literally every week there is a deadline.

I think you're working for the wrong company. I say that only because my previous employer was like that until they laid me off. I've also heard of many companies expecting their engineers to work unpaid overtime.

My new job pays 25% more than my last, above the median for engineers in my city and they're serious about 40 hours per week. If I work overtime (paid overtime) for 3 weeks in a row, I get a call from the department manager asking me if everything is okay. If your employer doesn't treat you with respect, find a different company that does.

>>21283177
If I could find a job

no
I only need a 3x or so to have enough to be comfortable to quit
sometimes I get kinda of scared though, not having it all as cash, only in crypto form

but I guess selling crypto is better than actually working

>>21283177
I used to love my job for the first two years.

>>21283742
I'm happy for you anon. Maybe it was a bad company, but from my understanding it is pretty common for that industry. Every owner wants their building built on time. I left the industry completely. Now I have a cushy defense position that pays 30% more, is only 40 hours, and way less stress (no deadlines).

I'm a software engineer, it started out as good but I'm fucking sick of WFH. I need an office environment to work properly, my new manager is a pajeet that doesn't like me and I work with other pajeets that have no regard for work/life balance.

Shame that 30m has been wasted on Eat Out to Help Out vouchers for Wagamamas and encourage wave 2

>Go to school to learn a valuable skill
>Use your skill to help another man realize his dream while ignoring your own
>Give half your pay to the government to help subsidize the extermination of your race

LOL

Yeah I do, I work as front-end dev 2 days in the week. Rest is uni. Quite chill no one up my ass I just do what I like doing but insteas getting paid for it. Also can work often from home

My job is to keep you informed about the latest and greatest shitcoin bags, your job is to buy them

>>21283177
I am indifferent to my job. Its a place that provides me with a fat paycheck.

>>21283177
>Dropped out of Uni joined Canadian Military in 2018
>Corona hits and I haven't worked since March
>Get $1700 CAD every 2 weeks
Yes anon I'm enjoying myself

>>21283605
Where?

>>21283177
>getting paid to sit on my ass and do nothing since March
Yes.

>>21283177
I did enjoy my previous job

It was also a useful tool to buy LINK tokens with

>>21283177
no. i'm a corporate accountant at a medical device company. 80% of my day is spent arguing with retarded coworkers or answering retarded questions or doing retarded busywork. i make $70k and will likely be promoted to $80-85k within the next year. this is the only reason why i'm still doing this shitty career, because it pays a middle class wage.

>>21284192
China. Just don't go to a tier 1 city

>work as translator
>they paid me to go to college and learn chinese
>now I get paid to stay home and watch chinese news, read chinese news, and try to explain it to boomer supervisors who ignore anything I say just like our early reports on the Coronavirus
>easy af job, work from home right now, decent paycheck and hella good benefits
>can freely dump all my money into stocks/crypto
Its not bad. Easy money.

>>21283177
I hate it. But somehow I’m getting raises constantly. I just wanna develop fucking game apps not fucking doctorate level image processing projects. I don’t even have a PhD, I’m losing my goddamn mind, I don’t want to deal with tensor level calculus all my fucking life.

>>21283177
Music teacher, composer, performer, and business owner. Currently transitioning from a snall school to my own private school. I love my private students; really engaged and interested, with lots of freedom to explore using recording software and applying our skills. I just don’t like having to kiss ass at the other school and candycoat everything for fragile parents who believe in “talent.”

Hoping to eventually work full time as a video game composer. Don’t want to dox myself, but I’ve already written for Ubisoft. Such a great industry to work in.

>>21283177
I work for myself, so I wouldn't know. Get back in the cage please somebody needs to do the slaving in this world

Yes!
I work 12 hours shift at a mine, once i'm done doing what I'm supposed to do, I drive the pick-up to a restricted zone, hide and browse the internet for the remaining 8 hours.

>>21283177
Ive been unemployed for over a year.

>Job A
Hated it. Felt like a police state that tracked our moves and demanded we keep track of nearly everything we did work related. Including reporting yourself for taking too long in the bathroom or having a long phone call.... I quit via a lie amd then the manager kept calling me for a week...I had to email HR just so I wouldn't get some bs slapped against me.

>Job B
Manager bothered me a lot. She couldn't figure out how to do simple stuff. Ironic that she got paid like 40% more than me. Lots of two faced coworkers. Quit via a lie.

>Job C
Fired because I mentioned the hr roastie manager had me do something that was questionable and if the government knew would likely have resulted in fines or worse if it caused anything serious. Ironic how this higher level manager defended the HR roastie and revealed me as the one who mentioned it which obviously led to me being unofficially reprimanded. Eventually fired when this higher level HR two faced dude who seemed to love flaunting wealth likely convinced the roastie to go through with firing me.

>Job D
Mocked by the supervisor (retail) when I said I was lookong for something else since I have a business degree. Her words were "This is a business." Lmao no I didn't go to college to work minimum wage retail. Wish I never went to college, degree has been nearly useless.

were all neet here faggot

>>21283434
Worked in retail too. Surprised I didn't neck myself back then.

>>21283434
15 years retail, i really enjoyed getting more polite as customers were getting irate and co workers in the bicycle industry are some of the biggest legends you will ever meet. Now I prospect and collect neetbux which is even better, I see no one for weeks at a time.

I'm a bartender. Pay isn't great but it's fun and a great way to meet girls

Yeah anon, I'm a electrical engineer that lurks on /biz/ to find the best pennystocks and laugh at crypto currency niggers lose all of their money

>>21284992
ive made more off LINK in 2 days than you see in half a year

>>21283553

>>21283977
Patjeets are the worst kind of people to work with. I worked as a software dev with patjeets for six month. This was like buying link at $ 14

>>21283177
Security. Loved it during the coronahoax outbreak, but it died down. Now I have to deal with spics and niggers on a daily basis

I've only ever worked in warehouses or call centers both of which I'm too autistic for and since they're my only jobs the only jobs which will take me are more warehouses or call centers and everyone else is "hmmm you have parts in your life where you unemployed and therefore not miserable but we only look for those who have produced a steady stream of misery their whole lives."
