ok, i googled paraplanner and apparently you're a secretary. Again, good for you, but if you wanna get up there with the bosses, youre gonna have to be more invested in the enterprise that employs you, and not treat it the same way a kid treats school.

Is that a serious question? Do you think I get pulled into a room and vetted on my phone usage? Not everyone is some cucked call centre slave being watched and yelled at 24/7 you realise, I work from home without asking and no one cares.
And a paraplanner is to an IFA what a paralegal is to a lawyer. It’s a really cool job that I enjoy and I’m excited to qualify as a financial adviser so I can double my wages.

But you're already a "successful paraplanner" lol. You're either successful or a paraplanner buddy, cant be both.

Also, hotshot, i can tell that if the boss ever cared enough to call you past 5pm, you'd be on that phone in a heartbeat.

And I don’t answer my phone to my boss after 5pm, I raise it the next morning and ask what was the matter and no one gives a shit. COPE

I don’t think you realise that most people who aren’t bottom level customer service or retail drones don’t live in fear of being fired and they’re not desperate to appease their boss. I’m not special, most people in my office don’t reply to group chats, pick up their work phone or respond to emails outside of work hours unless it’s tax year end or someone is retiring we all liked or something. You clearly have a shit job and you’re mad about it

Sure it did, it's not like I ignored an urgent call that I knew was urgent. You're acting like it's a big deal when it's not. My boss called last week at like 6pm, ignored it, next morning I messaged on slack saying 'Hey I saw a missed call what's up' and she said she was wondering whether I'd put in my holiday request or whether it had already been approved by Becky in HR. Again, most people are like me, you are an exceptionally sad, keen bootlicker. I imagine you called teachers 'sir' in school and offered to carry their books to 'get ahead in life' lmao.

This is so fucking far from the truth it's pretty obvious you don't know what you're talking about. I've worked with lower level staff all the way up to senior executives of multinationals, and bar-none the higher a position someone is in the more of their personal time they dedicate to work and answering their superiors. Usually lower level staff aren't reliable, and don't take responsibility for the task outcome or quality performance, which is why they usually stay lower level.

Based. Since we've been working from home I've made 300k from options and crypto and can now afford to stop waging so I've now completely stopped responding to work texts and emails. But the wages still have been paid into my bank every month. Saw some emails from my boss yesterday asking if I was OK and if I'd seen his email last week kek

Hey man at the end of the day it's your career. A word of advice; if you're not careful, pretty soon the phone will stop ringing, and the emails won't end up in your imbox. Someone who's just as competent, just as ambitious and more reliable WILL steal opportunities right from under your feet. I know this, because I've been this person.

[Anonymous No.19374488]

Suddenly a loud sound. You don't know what it means but your body reacts. Your heart rate goes up and your eyes start looking for the source.
There's a glowing rectangle. Somehow you know the sound means the rectangle is vibrating and calling for you. As you approach the object you see the glowing light contains a pattern.
You recognize the pattern, it says "mom". The realization that you're a biological process that came out of another person horrifies you almost as much as the choice the rectangle presents with two large buttons that emerge out of the pattern. One is red, the other green.
As you struggle with the meaning of it all it suddenly stops as quickly as it began. You're free. The rectangle has no power over you any more.

No anon that's how things are everywhere. And if you think otherwise don't expect to make any career progress. Being good at what you do can only take you so far, and is seldom enough to get you where you want to be.

I'm a pharmacist and this shit happens to me all the time. I have a main store where I do 12 hour shifts on weekdays, but sometimes on my day off I'd get calls from random local numbers asking me if I can fill in within like 30 fucking minutes at [insert shitty clusterfuck of a store here]. I always say no. For one because there's no fucking way I'm even getting showered/dressed/etc and able to drive to that location in the amount of time they want. But also because fuck you, no way.

I just stopped answering all unknown calls, period.

There's a certain level of mental and physical exhaustion you get to where you lose sight of reality. Made me wonder what it must have been like for soldiers fighting for months on end with little sleep.

Net income increases are extremely valuable still when your new into the workforce or just poor in general. Obviously if you never build equity in anything your lifetime earnings are going to be looking like that graph, but 40k a year to 60k a year increase can help you build up that equity a lot faster.
