Fuck lads, how do you cope? It sounds like a dream - a well-paid non-job but it's pure hell. My skills have atrophied, as has my work-ethic. I'm now a lazy, entitled de-skilled fuck. If I ever leave and go to a proper company where they expect me to actually earn my pay it will be a huge shock. I'm trapped. I don't even have the energy or will to learn anything new, I just dick around all day and move the mouse so I show as green on Teams. I just pile up the free money and invest it. What should I do?

Have you considered gambling?

>What should I do?
Go to your boss and ask for a promotion. Firm handshake and all.
>>
>>61958599
kek same here
Just wait for the next big habbening and shakeup and succeed in the chaos while everyone else lives in fear and drinks themselves to death. No point trying to succeed in traditional frameworks.
In the meantime >leechmaxxxx

>What should I do?
Your job is not supposed to be your life
It's supposed to be where you get money so you can do your life

You have the perfect scenario already
|Go actually, like, do things you want to do with your money now

>>61958599
>What should I do?
You sound like a gigantic faggot to be quite honest with you.
>>61958628
basically all of this. One of the weirdest things I've noticed with people that I've never gotten is people who are obsessed with progressing in their careers and doing work. I'd personally be more than content having a nothing job where I barely do work and make money while having fun with my hobbies/relationships with all of my free time
>>
>>61958647
OP you need to walk around your room and contemplate your life out loud to yourself because either you're depressed and should kill yourself or there's something missing in your life (not work)
>>
kill yourself. we don't need leeches in society. imagine there are people out there fixing people's teeth, curing their diseases, carrying disabled people's groceries to their car for them. And then there's you. Think about that.
>>
>>61958599
>move the mouse so I show as green on Teams I nipped that shit in the bud very early and told them that I’m too busy to gossip in teams, so if they need to get ahold of me submit a ticket and mark it as urgent. Spoiler: I’m not that busy, I just hate teams and leave it closed all the time.
>>
Multitask: bring a laptop and write a book/day trade/ make business plans. Challenge yourself with some sort of pursuit, or you will continue to take the path of least resistance and become a potato.

>>61958665
I didn’t mean to greentext the whole thing lol

I do hobbies. I do hobbies when I should be working from home. I also run a quite lucrative side-gig. But being a NEET - even a well-paid one - gradually erodes one's self-worth.
>>
>>61958668
I'm thinking of writing a screenplay actually.
>>
>>61958599
Make your own project. Work on it in work hours?... What are you waiting for?!?

It could be worse. I'm in IT and need to log 40 hours of actual work every week into our timekeeping system. Just sitting at my computer doesn't count, meaning that I get punished for doing my work quickly and constantly have to invent irrelevant things for me to do.
>>
>>61958790
Oh yea I agree I'm an entitled First World fuck, your's sounds far worse.

Use the money for real estate investing. It’ll keep you busy and you can do a lot manual work to fix up properties
>>
>>61958599
How did you get into this job?
>>
>>61958599
holy fuck we are the same person. outside the odd project and having occasional meetings, I'm a mouse wiggler trying to get my steps in while WFH
>>
>>61959061
Half the workforce does nothing of value, it's basically UBI. The economy is fake and gay.

>cyber security
>Actually earn my pay
Pfff
