We are monitored six ways from sunday but same at work at least we dont have to turn on the cuckcam

>>22069424
I'd be incredibly surprised if teams didn't have that capablity tbqh. Trust is good, 24/7 surveillance is irrefutable

>>22069424

imagine working for a company you didn't own. lmao

I work from home on teams and never change my status from available even when I'm taking a shit or whatever.


I also video conference daily and I'm never clothed from the waist down. I insert my vibrating butt plug right before I clock in each morning and I'm hard and leaking all day. Video calling with my supervisor while she has no idea I'm Rock hard nearly makes me cum hands free

>>22069424
i work from home and found a way to have my status always show online lmao

>>22070054
How did you do that?

>>22070154
/delete system32

In cmd

Company I work for is chill. No monitoring, just get your shit done and show up to meetings. I basically work 10-3 now.

Only bad part is we have to use webcams in meetings and install that fucking malware zoom. At least it's a company laptop.

Thanks anon

>>22070165
this worked for me! thanks anon

Put your mouse on a record player near the needle arm, get the tappy beak bird and have it hit enter all day, strap your toddler down with just a keyboard, put your keyboard in a mouse cage.

Literally infinite ways anon

I listen to synthwave and shitpost on /biz/ all day

>>22070021
Never change /biz/

Before I was laid off I worked from home and at least for Skype, you can change the amount of time it takes to put your status as away. I think I changed it to 15+ minutes.

Couldn't you use one of these instead?

If i adjust to available on mobile teams when computer is away. What do they see?

>>22069424

This is inherently flawed because it implies that you couldn't be working without moving your mouse. What about writing things down in a notebook, answering emails on the shitter, taking calls while walking around the room etc.? It's not a bad start but easy enough to refute if a company relied too hard on it.

I just sit on the couch with my mouse and move it around every 5-10

>>22069424
How quickly does the green dot change to yellow?

>>22070021

Lol dude.

>>22069424
1. Insert Ubuntu usb
2. Restart computer
3. Uninstall Windows
4. Quit job
5. Welcome to a better world

>>22070518
With teams it stays yellow even if you just move the mouse. You have to actually type something to make it go green again

>>22069424
there's full authoritarian software that lets you screenshot the employee's desktop; the fact that it's not implemented widely just means that a lot of white collar "business" work is unproductive and not really necessary.

>>22069628

>>22070569
Even the managers would be busted with that tech.

Worried I’d get in trouble. So I just use a screwdriver/book wedge between keys on notepad, It always shows I’m online

The true singularity

>>22069424
working from "home"

I fuck around too much working from home. I'm starting to think they just accept the fact that the time and money needed to adequately replace me just isn't in the budget.

My mom works from home and puts her mouse ontop of a foot massager. I think anyone with sense does something similar.

>>22070467
They want busy work, otherwise they could easily measure productivity and use those numbers when considering employees output. A lot of boomers don't realize this but the modern office is highly inefficient if we're just looking for sales, referrals, maintenance, etc.. The boomers prefer the appearance of working more than anything getting done. Blame the concept of hourly wages or whatever but it's a stupid system.

>>22069424
people here were posting this device that physically shakes your mouse every few minutes so your computer doesn't go to sleep

>>22070021
chainlink solves this

>>22070746
There's never going to be a completely efficient system, but the old system of mandatory set hours is stupid.

>>22069424
God I hate this shit. I just want to go back into the office. I miss having a routine. Now I just roll out of bed at the last minute and work until late at night. I’m the office, things were more clearly defined and I could go for walks around the city. I had the queue for when to call it a day when everyone started leaving. This whole “new normal” is horribly depressing for me.

>>22070282
Lol the Chinese guy I work with has permanently set his status to “Do Not Disturb - Focusing.”

In terms of where I'd rank it:
1. In the office and socializing/not working
2. Working from home and not socializing
3. In the office and working/not socializing

For the most part I enjoy hanging out with my coworkers in/out of the office, but if everyone on my team is already working out of another office then there's no reason to go in.

>>22070165
Just did it, thanks bro.

>>22070923
If I’m at the office*

>>22070665

Pathetic haha

>>22069424
kek. I have 2 computers next to each other, first of all. One for "work," the other for real shit.
Regarding showing as "away," you can change that setting in Skype to only trigger after 5+ hours of activity. And a very, very simple macro will move your mouse for you every 30 minutes if you prefer that route.

>>22070665
Based. I wedge a coin between the up and down keys on my keyboard and watch anime on my pc

>>22070970
Agree. Miss fooling around at the office

>>22069424
I've been working from home for the past twelve years. I'm glad I work a job where I am considered an adult and my work is based on the work I complete and how responsive I am, just as it would be in the office. Honestly, I got less work done in the office because I am a wreck dealing with people and lazy people wander the office and distract those of us that do work.

I don't have any of this shit. I leave for one hour in the middle of the day to go grocery shopping and no one gives a fuck.

>>22069424
Fucking faggot middle managers clawing and scratching to justify their own shit jobs. Top kek. I've been working from home for about a decade now and whenever I was/have been questioned as to why I was set to "Away" for the majority of the day or why my "Last login was more than 24h ago" I would always answer with "You know my e-mail address and my phone number. You know how to reach me." and "Wait a second, what are you trying to say? Are you making assumptions here?" The issue was then left alone and wasn't pressed until a brand new, freshly minted, faggot middle manager came around and repeated the cycle.

Most people aren't used to standing up for themselves and most managers don't expect you to. I had an old boomer tell me "Well anon, you're the first employee I've had who actually stood their ground and made a good case for themselves. Your number is still ###-###-#####, right?"

>>22071623
If ur good you can get the job done in a quarter of the estimated time and just fuck around three quarter of the time. Also lots of companies do wfh now so you can do your job naked and look at nsfw stuff no problem and if you get horny you can rub one out and get paid for it.

Jokes on them,I do day trading and shitposting on the corp laptop

>>22071764
Fucking based. I have unironically made my month's wage earnings by trading shitcoin PnD's and gambling with options on Robinhood several times in the last 2 years.

>>22071119
i've been working remotely since april. rarely talk to my boss, pretty much work independently and i have a """real job""" in the accounting/finance department of a publicly traded company. it sounds like you're an incompetent manbaby, in need of constant hand holding and positive feedback from busy bodies in the wage cage.
>wahhhh i'm an inefficient retard who takes 12 hours to do 8 hours of work :(
>wahhhh i'm too much of a pussy to set boundaries with my boss :(
>wahhhh baby need city walkie :(
>wahhhh i need to see faces in office :(

>All these retards actually moving their mouse
I wrote a tiny application which hooks User32.dll and calls SetCursorPos. It's scriptable with cli arguments. Right now I have it set to run on login with the args:
/rand=1 /p=600000 /r=-1
So it will move the mouse in a random direction by one pixel every ten minutes, forever. That's enough to keep Teams from going to Away status.
I wrote this application on company time, lmao. I don't even know if anyone gives a fuck that I sit in front of my laptop on my phone for at least a few hours a day, but now nobody can tell.
>Why didn't you use AHK or [my favorite mouse wiggler]?
Because those can be found trivially with a scan of installed and runnings applications. Databases of executable names, assembly metadata, and binary hash exist for mouse wigglers specifically so companies can catch people who are using them. Nothing is going to catch C:\ProgramFiles\Google\Update\GoogleUpdateCore.exe

Took you this long to come up with a rebuttal? Sounds like you’re a year away from being automated if you’re in accounting and don’t even need to interact with anyone. You’re just an Excel monkey.

>>22071981
another STEMlord who has no idea what accounting/finance does. there's a reason why i talk to the CAO/CFO on a monthly and quarterly basis and you're just another codenigger banging away at a keyboard 12 hours a day.

Ok? That’s nothing your boss couldn’t do. I doubt your job requires much judgment or value-added activities if you’re not interacting with anyone.

software engineer here, since march been working barely 5 hours a week, pulling in over $200k/year salary. Its hilarious. Just making up bugs and tasks, and I have two bosses so I just tell each one the other one gave me a bunch of shit to do and just make it up. Plus the company stock fucking mooned for no reason but its great because now every month I get an extra $10-20k from stock incentives. I fucking love covid.

>>22072110
>doubt your job requires much judgment or value-added activities
again, you have no idea what accounting/finance actually does.

>>22072383
I actually do, lol.

>>22072148
Based. What company? How many years of experience do you have to get that salary?

>>22071944
It should be obvious: Software. Well, I'm a business process analyst and automation engineer. I break apart ridiculous processes involving emailed spreadsheets and someone clicking around doing the same thing a hundred times, then when it's distilled into "this is what actually needs to happen", I automate as much of it as possible. I have literally replaced entire careers with a few hundred lines of code. It's shocking how little some people do.

>>22071634

That's why I think unemployement is going to skyrocket even more. Companies are figuring this out, they have to be...

>>22073068
Or, I just log in and I don't have to worry about it. Because it's been entirely, durably automated 100% in software. Writing that code took about half an hour and it was a bit of fun.

My job is forcing me to install always-on monitoring that takes screenshots, snaps pics from my webcam, and records every keystroke.

I'm probably going to resign.

>>22069424
If I'm fucking off I carry my wifi mouse in my robe pocket. It jiggles around and keeps my computer looking like there's someone actively doing work.

The amount of work I am doing from home is absolutely miniscule. But I've drawn that paycheck for six months of virtually nothing.
