Hell no. We need a 4day work week so that we can just go and hang out with our friends AND still make enough money to make ends meet.
Sorry, Best I can do is take your boss home day
do we have to bring them back? or let anyone see them ever again?
Yeah and your idiot friends start spewing all the shit you don’t want your coworkers to hear.
I already work with all my friends so problem solved?
Do you work with all of your friends or are your coworkers your only friends? It’s an important distinction.
Most of the people I work with were my friends long before. My boss and my grand-boss I’ve know for 30 plus years. I also have several other friends I work with that I hang out with occasionally outside of work. I do have other friends but they were originally part of that same group I’ve known for 30+ years.
Would never happen
i work in a sex dungeon. i don’t think my friends want to see what i do lmao
… Does it pay well?
Pretty well! Accounting for prep time (makeup, outfit, etc.) and cleanup time, it’s about double the hourly rate of my other jobs I’ve had where I “use” my stupid biochem degree. However I don’t have a guaranteed number of hours. Some months it’s only a few :(
I need to get a 9–5 again I’m running out of money 🤷♀️

Damn, I feel you there. After 5 months of job hunting while unemployed, I took a part-time job (it was all I could find) which has slowed down for the winter. I’m lucky to get 13hrs in a week.
Struggling :(
so sick of living in the race to the bottom economic system
I mean, I do have a comfy chair they can sit in as I type stuff and curse.
so we can actually see what our friends do all day
Friend: “So you get paid to spend the day periodically typing on your computers, surrounded by lots of large monitors, and several times a day you have video calls with people where you use so much jargon that the conversation is almost entirely divorced from the English language? You just finished an hour long meeting where I overheard every word from both sides of the conversation, and I have no idea what the hell either of you were talking about.”
Me: “yes, that about sums it up”
I think my friends (the ones that aren’t in the same field anyways) would be surprised by how much of my time is sitting around doing shit that a junior should be doing instead of more important engineering-type stuff
“so you just got paid $100 to sit around and watch an intermittently frozen software program for a couple hours and clicking a button every now and then, while answering questions you’ve answered two or three times before in your message history with this person, and sat in on three meetings that you didn’t even need to speak during, and you have absolutely no work product to show for the past two hours of your time yet?”
“yep. I’m gonna blow my brains out if this continues”
ofc, the other side of this is “so you spent 6+ hours working nonstop going straight from task to task while being constantly available to multiple other departments and context switching nonstop, and you finished up three models and documented some project stuff and verified a few applications with calculations and whatnot”, to which the answer is the same “yep. I’m gonna blow my brains out if this continues”
watch an intermittently frozen software program for a couple hours and clicking a button every now and then
Too real
I want to throttle every microsoft employee. I have enough issues with the CAD program itself, I don’t need fucking office365 and explorer freezing and crashing nonstop
Commenting to share this neat video I saw recently from the developer of Windows Task Manager. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQykvrAR_po
Seems like a great guy. He is retired from M$, so probably safe from your throttling anyway.
yeah that was a neat video
DevOps?
Niche IT project work actually, but lots of overlap with DevOps type skills/situations.
One of my earlier jobs, security guard, only 1 dude on the assignment out of the whole crew wasn’t a friend from school that I still regularly hung out with.
And, coincidentally, that 1 dude who wasn’t my friend, was the same asshole who tried to get me fired on my first day at a previous job for his own fuck-up. Nobody likee him at that first job, and the tradition continued at the security job.
Are there only two jobs where you live?
three, but you have to have “experience” for that one
“Ah! Lore accurate John from work”
Then you accidentally call Fat Accountant by his story nickname.
“Oh hey! It’s Cheating Chelsea!”
“Oh, she really does have the hots for Slutty Steven!”
You must be Micro-Penis Marc-Paul!
what makes it worse is he weighs 93 pounds wet.
wet? 🤨
Covered in water? I’m tired, isn’t that a saying
Me: So, who is the one I want to punch?
I think you just defined purgatory.
nice idea
