Lel that is pointless at symbolism. White collar work is being remoted at break neck speed. Companies are seeing they can shed the expense of a physical office and remain productive.

Shoe #2 will be they cut loose high cost labor and replace it with low cost brownskins. They won’t need H1Bs because they won’t have to bring them into the country since there is no office.

And for you White white collars: every day of work for the rest of your life will be spent trying in vain to understand Indian accents and remembering how to spell Ganemathekar in the To line of your emails.

What ended up happening was some worthless roastie who had horrible productivity numbers got promoted to a higher paying position I applied for and I got the bare minimum raise because I wasn't a 'team player' and some other corporate mumbo jumbo they used to jew me.

Really depends on what you do.
If you're a junior in a technical profession (engineering, software) or business development role (consulting, project management, HR, marketing, etc. although good PMs are hands-off) then yes, hard workers do get promoted. Competition is limited enough in most organizations that it is possible to stand out.
If you work in non-commission retail, admin work, nursing, science, teaching, medicine, accounting, law or any role where career development is limited by qualifications, then yes, that strategy is fine. For low skill jobs, you're a number in a system and you'll be lucky if anyone even recognizes your efforts. If you're in medicine or law, you can obviously take on more cases for more income, but your potential scales fairly linearly unless you are in a good subfield or have a big break. Just don't be the idiot that loses their sanity over a dumb retail gig.

I busted my ass working non-stop for a year, none of my coworkers gave a shit about their job but I worked like my life depended on it. I would literally wake up in the middle of the night looking at my arm in the darkness to see what time I was supposed to go in break, then I realized I was in bed at 3am. I gave everything I had into that piece of shit job and everyone constantly praised my work ethic. I was the youngest there yet I had an excellent reputation of one of the hardest workers, and still the Jew bitch I worked for refused to promote me to a fucking cashier.

I had an argument with my wife about job hopping. She's a baker and has no fucking clue about any profession beyond that. I fucking grinded at a tech job for 2.5 years and got NO WHERE. Since then I've job hopped twice and make 20k more yet she has the nerve to say that's not good. If it were her, I'd still be at my old job making barely more than a target employee with no room for growth. Fuck company loyalty.

To the OP's point, I find a healthy balance is nice. I dick off half my day and do work the rest of the time. If I know I got a project that is high priority and will have lots of eyes on its progress, i handle it as such. If its just everyday shit, it'll get done when I feel like it.

It's possible for me to make the company 6-7 figures in half an hour. Likewise, it's possible for me to lose the company 6-7 figures just as quickly if I fuck up. But I don't fuck up and I take care of business when it's important which is why they don't care about my long lunch breaks or how much time I spend napping or shitposting or playing vidya or flipping shitcoins when things are slow. When I have one good day I generate enough revenue to pay my yearly salary + benefits and then some, so management understands white collar productivity is more than staring at my monitor for exactly 8 hours a day 5 days a week.

Compared to how I was treated like an indentured servant at best and a disposable piece of meat at worst at my jobs in college (pizza place, landscaping, furniture warehouse) to make barely above minimum wage, it's a lot more lenient and laid back as a white collar wagie.

white-collar differs greatly. i'm guessing youre in financials or business of some sort; even in that sector, there are careers where white-collar work culture is vastly different. try pulling that shit at a b4 firm and you'll get destroyed on performance reviews

exactly. Its hilarious to me when executive leadership all "wonders" why people leave constantly. Its no secret. If you don't take care of your employees, why the fuck would they stick around? Companies really just rely on the braindead retards that will happily stick with a company for a decade while getting yearly raises of a dollar, if that.

I approve or deny agricultural mortgages. Worked my way up from basic bitch house mortgages, which was a much busier job because there are a lot more of those sales. Most farms/ranches nowadays are very large, which means the mortgages are big, so you need some experience to get into this because they won't trust a multi-million dollar decision to just anybody. That also means there are fewer sales so it's slower than houses.

because I have to deal with her.

Also, I forgot to mention at my last job a girl on my team was promoted to senior and didn'tdo shit, promoted to a new role in a different department and didnt do shit, got called out for it after six months and was demoted back to her original position (my role at the time) and was put on a performance plan. The second she got off the plan, she was promoted again. She is a lazy cunt that was rude to everyone yet somehow promoted 3 times in 3 years AND demoted yet I was not promoted once in 2.5 years and gave a fuck. I can only assume she was sucking dick. But lesson learned. Just fucking leave when you see the writing on the wall.

You put the work in to get in to the position that you want THEN you start to to the minimal. If I did the minimal and stayed at the entry level position of my job, I would be getting half the pay and vacation days. Now I sit comfy and work from home. Haven't seen the office in almost 5 yeras.

>The chad is motivated, he shows up early. He works hard. Not because cuckbucks, noo its because he likes what he does.
>because he likes what he does

did you not read the OP, he asks if being lazy is the winning strategy "when it comes to waging". He's not talking about a decent job, he's talking about the kind of job you work because you have to, because you can't find anything better. He posts a picture of Amazon delivery worker. So, OP is talking about jobs that pay around $15 per hour or less, certainly not referring to jobs that pay $20 per hour or more. He's talking about shit jobs.

And personally I don't think it's worth putting in much effort, and I'll tell you why: I've worked wagie jobs in call centers and sales gruntwork before.

My first job out of college I worked at a call center for the largest international nonprofit in my state. Talking on phone to sponsors, most of the work consisted of taking down credit card numbers over the phone, translating docs, explaining shit to people in both english and spanish, was very professional, always on time, always pleasant, coworkers liked me etc. After working there for over 2 years I applied to a job in another department, somewhere in design I think. And they didn't interview me...this was a nonprofit of about 200 people, everyone knew mostly everyone. HR calls me in for a meeting specifically to 'let me down easy' and tell me they won't even consider interviewing me. And this is at a super friendly, outwardly Christian nonprofit (though controlled by a lot of affluent white female liberals and was no longer as religious) in which everyone was pretty kind to one another at work and it did have something of a family atmosphere as cringe as that sounds. But they wouldn't even interview me. I mean, fuck, at least interview me and then tell me I didn't get the job so I would think the company gives a shit about me and will at least take me into some kind of consideration
