>>24901089
This is why I live off welfare

>>24901089
what the fuck is wrong with these people

>>24901089
For what?What could possibly be said when you’re trying to stuff your face with a sandwich?

Had a job interview last week. Hiring manager wanted a video call (no in-person because lol coronahoax). I said I can't because no webcam, which is actually true (not that I'd do a fucking video call even if I had one).

guess who's still unemployed

>can you turn your webcam on during the meetings anon?
>lie about not having one
>they're going to mail me a webcam
what the fuck man

>>24901089
tell them you don't have one duhhhhhhhh

>>24901773
What kind of fucking job do you people even have? I’ve worked in manufacturing and I couldn’t even imagine sitting in a shitty office on a computer all day

>>24901089
I did last week. jfc it was so fucking boring

>>24901089
Same but they also want to have some fucking virtual escape room shit.

>>24901896
I'll tell them I have a dentist appointment and skip the lunch. I'm glad tomorrow is my last day before going on vacation for 3 weeks

>>24900797
Oh ah my webcam is broken, it just did fall off the PC

Things OP has never heard anyone say to him

>>24901868

>tfw when last time used my webcam a year ago to KYC on an exchange.

>>24900797

>anon, you're the only one with your webcam off
>come on man, put the camera on haha!

>>24900797

>>24903737

>>24900847
>can't concentrate on the code
Just do what I did and stop concentrating most of the time

>>24903737
>Decline
>no reply

This shit happened with my dad
>have to simulate a hypothetical meeting and "act" on camera as if it was before covid
>then do it again as if it was full on lockdown
>then do it again as if covid ended
I wanted to fucking puke wjen I read the excel they sent him detailing this.
We unironically need to go back to monke

>>24901900
Sounds like thats just playing online videogame.

>>24901423
So you're expecting to get a job without a Webcam during a time when you won't be going into an office for another 6 months? Guess who is a dumb faggot. Also who doesn't have a Webcam lol? You don't even have a smart phone you can use? Jesus christ

>>24903737
>Location: microsoft teams meeting

There are some lonely people in this world. Be thankful you aren't one of them. Your coworkers might be going through some things and could use some company. Idk man I think a lot of people on here take what they have for granted there are some people who are just totally cucked and not in a funny way.

>>24902858
Cs has a high turnover so one of the ways they think to keep you around is too push the company "culture" on you. They'll also do things like "customer care week" where you get treated like a child and have pizza delivered and given 5 dollar Starbucks cards. Its just another way of saying they don't want to pay you jack shit so here's some bs to make it seem like we care.

>>24903904
Kinda, I guess, although it's probably going to be extremely awkward.

>>24901423
What service did they want to use?
Whatever it was you could have done it on your phone.

>>24904006
I've never met anyone who enjoys that shit unless they're either nuts or super extroverted. Shut up, dummy.

I had a fucking "virtual" Christmas party, 5.30pm to 6.30pm today. I work with these people I don't want to socialise with the cunts. After working hours too..

I just didn't dial in, suspect something will be said tomorrow but I'm past giving a fuck.

>>24903737
HR needs to be abolished
>>24904006
what exactly am I taking for granted? The ability to be antisocial and remain sane?
I'm fairly certain no one except HR wants these things to exist

>>24904006
Yes company, not some pixels on a screen surveilled by the government.

>was gonna buy a house pre corona
>bought stonks after the crash
>up bigly
>still live in a trailer (I grew up poor as fuck and inherited a trailer)
Thankfully, I work for a boomer company so no happy hours.

>>24901900
>virtual escape room
Fuck that

That's called work

>>24904008
>"customer care week" where you get treated like a child and have pizza delivered and given 5 dollar Starbucks cards. Its just another way of saying they don't want to pay you jack shit so here's some bs to make it seem like we care.
I suppose the end goal is to have it fully staffed by appeal appeased by these relative trinkets

>>24901900
Fucking what is the trend with this bullshit, same here, just another fucking meeting for me to decline.

I don't want to do your virtual escape room
I don't want to do the group cocktail mixing classes (with ingredients sent to your house)
I don't want to dial into the weekly "social"
I don't want to spend time with you CUNTS

>>24903904
sure, except you can't banter with the boys and have a good time
instead, you have to act like you're having fun while closely monitoring your speech and reactions to make sure they meet company policy™
what's even the point? This is hell

>>24901423
When you are interviewing you can’t be picky retard. Get a webcam.

I just don't show up to these retarded type of things. I still have my job and good prospects.. Stop being betas.

>>24901089
Lol. My christmas lunch got cancelled and they just added an extra $50 to our paycheck this week

>>24901900
So one of these flash games?

>got caught jerking off at the virtual lunch again

>>24901423
How else would they know you’re not black?

>>24901089
>>24900797
is this real? do wagies really have to do this shit?

>>24904464
yes

>>24904464
It's an optional thing lol, /biz/ is full of retarded whiners

>>24900797
>we have to dial into a gay ass team con call every morning
>usually wake up 1 minute before then go back to sleep after
>my webcam is usually set to be default off and I don't turn it on either
>log in as normal last week and set laptop down on my legs while everyone does the usual small talk bullshit and lie down to snooze a bit more
>suddenly can hear my boss asking if I'm there and that I should move the laptop
>'wtf is he on about how can he see its not even on'
>look down, webcam light is on
>look at screen
>ohshit.jpg
>whole team of 10 people can see my girlfriends tits while she's asleep
>not told her kek as she would go nuts at me

>>24903769
This is me. I'm not putting on decent clothes for your meeting sorry

I actually like the people I work with. We have no HR so we just hire people we like, and we aren't forced to do Karen-style activities like zoom karaoke - usually we just set up some games and whoever wants to join can do so.

>>24904780
I’ll take “Things that never happened” for $200 Alex

>>24904648
>he thinks it’s optional
Lmao yea ya know technically it is but if you don’t attempt to play the wagie game you become the outcast/one all the other wagies blame their problems on. Threads like this and 2 years wagecucking an IT job in an office is what gave me the resentment/motivation to quit the rat race and become a crypto NEET. Couldn’t be happier and I literally thank god for it multiple times a week. It’s exactly like>>24904349
says and if you don’t play along you get ostracized from the turbo normies and if there’s one thing normies don’t like it’s someone that won’t conform to their Jewish matrix.

>>24903642
>white claw
Are you some type of Faggot??

>>24905030
it can be based if the situation is like yours, but there's no point to deluding yourself into thinking most jobs are like that
you're lucky, and
>We have no HR so we just hire people we like
won't last forever
