What do Office Workers actually do At Work?

[Anonymous No.10240915]

Most of them? Almost nothing.

How do I get an Office Worker job instead of working in a bank where I have to input data all day?

Become good at something, or good at lying. Most prefer the latter.

They schedule pointless meetings so that they can have an excuse to get up from their desks throughout the day.
I was once invited to a meeting where the topic of discussion was what would be a good time that works for everyone to have the future meeting where we were supposed to actually discuss something of relevance. No larp....shit is ridiculous out there. State/federal office jobs especially.

Browsing biz on my phone and chatting up cuties. I also spend a lot of time in the restroom watching porn.

[Anonymous No.10241057]

I play video games and read books. $20/hr. Government job.

Browse /biz & wonder what other people do during the day.

>finance temp job becomes permanent
>given greater responsibility, thrown into the fire
>work overtime every week, skip lunches, sucks overall
>goes on like this for a year
>find corner to cut
>cut corners
>tell boss, get praised for identifying le inefficiencies
>work half as much for the following 3 years

Now I'm like everyone else. Probably put in a true 4-5 hours of work a day and browse 4chan, watch footy, YouTube, check investments, etc., for the other few hours.

I managed a team of inbound/outbound sales people for a regional telecom company and all of the performance managing, coaching and developing that comes with that.

Never ending performance conversations and mind numbing excel bullshit.

55k a year plus bonus' , benifits , retirement plan ect.

I dont hate it. Totally middle of the road type of shit and I am ok with that

[Anonymous No.10241462]

>>10241400
This is me I work as internal IT and was never given a true daily workload so when shit breaks I work and prevent it from happening again the other bit of my day is absolutely nothing

I'm open to thoughts here what kind of extra work can I pick up more money on the side while I'm here? Selling pot and shrooms is out of the question because we already have a guy for that.

I guess I can learn but where do I start and I would prefer something to do on top of trading crypto
I did labor for the past 5 years before this so I need my time fully occupied to feel remotely accomplished by the end of the day and I might as well make more money on the side while I'm already "working"

[Anonymous No.10241592]

Corporate tax but heavily involved in investment sales type stuff in a weird way. It's not an accounting type position, which is good because those always sound especially depressing.

Hospital security guard here... oh lads, how much i long for a nice comfy cubicle i can fuck around in and do nothing all day. You dudes have no idea how good life's for you.

[Anonymous No.10241656]

Work some, but also spend a lot of time looking at Facebook, 4chan, etc, nervously doing so, trying not to get caught by their managers. Waiting for the day to end. Sit and wonder when life will become less boring. Talk loudly with coworkers about the new sofa they bought at Ikea or about how they are taking crossfit.

What does /biz/ think about quantitative finance jobs?

[Anonymous No.10241704]

white privilege jobs at their finest.

meanwhile, your superiors, the blacks, are picking up your slack with actual WORKING careers such as engineering, analysts, skilltrades etc.

I would unironically kill myself after the first week if I was forced to spend 8 hours of every single day working in that kind of environment.

Being office cattle is nice when the economy is doing good and your overlord doesn't care headcount but once the economy takes a downturn you'll find yourself without a job and unable to find one because you have no skills. Just make sure you're saving and have a good rainy day fund.
