The reality is you look forward to getting off but then do nothing.

Lie. I mean it. Start lying right now. To anons reading this, lie like your life depends on it. They're not gonna call your fake references. If they do, so what? Rejected? You're getting filtered from even applying right now so what is the difference? Lie motherfucker. The laundry list of qualifications these dumb leeches are putting on job ads needs to be punished. Lie.
>>
>>206052521
yeah, it's even worse than that for most people

>>206053405
I'm white and have principles and morals.
No I won't lie even if I know it gets me ahead.

>>206052521
Just so you know office workers don't get cubicles anymore you dumbfuck. Unless it's some old company or govt. office. You'd know that if you worked a real job.
>>
>Everyone has for decades saying how most office work is bullshit and how at most you do 2h of actual work each day
>it's even worse now that AI can replace 90% of office jobs
>there's still ZERO push to actually try and change the 8h/day work module that's clearly clearly outdated
Someone explain this to me.
>>
>>206053994
if you came in 2 hours a day, you would then do 30 minutes of work per day. god I hate wagie subhumans
>>
>>206052424
How did he leave his cubicle?
>>
>Not browsing /tv/ AT work

Do you even wagecuck, OP? If you work a desk job, it’s not hard.

Go to local job fairs hosted by either the companies themselves or by your county's career center. This will usually get you a conversation with a hiring manager. If you display basic professionalism and half a brain cell, you have a good chance of then getting hired, regardless of how much office experience is on your resume. That requirement is just there online so that the useless HR people can filter the 200 resumes they can't be bothered to look at down a little bit.
>>
>>206054681
>go to job fair
>just a bunch of people there saying "go to our website for more info!"
>>
>>206054799
Every company-specific job fair I've been to has offered on-site interviews.
Every job fair with multiple companies has had at least a few companies offering them, though most won't.

I browse /tv/ at work and now my boss wants me to put everything I do in the day in my work calendar because she doesn't understand what it is I do all day.

>>206053994
>And the pandemic showed that wfh increased goofing off but had no impact on output because most office work is either ineffective or even decreases productivity
>"yeah we're going to need you to come in again"

Remember how silly the Jetsons looked because even with all the advanced technology and sky cities it was still the early 60s.

im gonna take your advice i just dont know if i can commit to it well enough, just find an office job thats believable find a guy whose name is listed online write a fake number and say I did data entry or something?

>>206052424
I shitpost at work all the time and I do manual labor.

>>206052521
It's actually worse than that now. You don't get your own space anymore and have to pretend to care about minorities and "marginalized people" even though everyone there is a fat white goy

Search up a company and put your friend's number on it. Tell him to take the reference call if he gets it and just say "yup anon isn't a serial killer"

>>206055492
Even at entry level, most office jobs will do a background check. That means they will hire a company to:
>call any previous companies you worked for to verify that you worked for them (they won't call specific references though)
>check where you've previously lived and when, so you can't lie about having had a job in another city
>check that your degrees are valid
They will also check for felonies, of course.

You can still lie. But it needs to be about unverifiable stuff. Working for small businesses, doing online data entry, gig economy stuff, etc.

bro is working in a cubicle farm
he's not well paid
but this was the late 90's/early oughts so his benefits were probably good enough
>>
>>206053405
This.
It's a scam economy.
University is a scam.
Public schools are a scam.
Boomer Ponzi pensions are a scam.
The fake job postings and then hiring foreign invaders is a scam.
Most charities are scams.
The gubberment is a scam
Police are a criminal mafia
Etc etc.
So as this posters says do whatever it takes to get a job.
Start telling them your an orc or dei shit too

>>206057863
Bullshit. You can't do that for foreign invaders so they aren't doing it for normal people

Why does /tv/ repeat this meme? It's only dumb startups that do the open office meme. If you work for a boomer company you'll still have your cube. Though if you're hybrid you might be sharing one.

They've done this at my last 3 jobs. Two of those were office jobs.
I have the reports of the background checks. They are required to send you a copy.

So glad I never experienced this. My wife's work does this. When I worked in office (I'm based work from home Chad now, company isn't even based in the gaynited states anymore) I had shit there, I had a beautiful air plant with a decorative display and a spray bottle, I had family photos, I had resistance bands and weights, I had little block puzzles I like to fuck around with, just stuff to many me feel comfy and happy. Imagine showing up to a job with just your fucking laptop, taking the first seat you can find wondering which stupid nigger will pop up next to you today, having nothing to look at or play with unless you brought it in your backpack with you. Absolute hell.

Rachel Morrison's research here talks about the effect of open offices, not their popularity. That 80% number comes from a random newspaper which cites a random interior designer who works for a firm that renovates offices. This is not a source. This is not research. Some critical reasoning, please.
>>
>>206059326
Every office I've worked at has assigned seating but the desks are completely open and close to each other meaning there is zero privacy. All I ask is to go back to the cubicle style where you at least don't feel like someone is looking over your shoulder at all times

That """study""" cites an IFBM study which includes low-wall setups as an "open office" environment. They count cubicles as open office. Again, please practice some critical reasoning instead of just reading whatever shitty blogs you find on Google.
>>206060680
Stop working for startups and meme tech companies.

>>206060825
So post something to the contrary.

>>206060842
You already did for me. You posted a screenshot from a blog which links to a blog which links to a blog which talks about a blog which says 70% of companies have offices include cubicle or open office floorplans.

What "critical reasoning" are you using to come to the conclusion that it's not common? Your personal experience?

Sorry I haven't provided you with peer-reviewed double blind studies, but you really do have to go back.

Who are you quoting? Because I'm quoting a """source""" talking about that shitty """study""" all these blogs link back to when I write

it's not fraud if you filed the right paperwork. this is what leftists mean when they call something a "social construct."

>>206053994
It didn't for me.
My office work was producing house plans, an actual thing had to be made from the work. 8 hours = 1 plan + extras
My upper management seemed to operate on this idea that everyone was actually only doing 2 hours of real work during covid, and instead everything was taking longer due to the constant fucking zoom meetings that went for 2 hours themselves.

I've only ever worked jobs like this.
Package depot was loading boxes constantly, not for 2 hours.
Print factory was slamming different machines constantly in 30 degree celsisus heat, not for 2 hours.
Roofing was going up and down roofs constantly, not for hours.
Anyone who stood around for 6 hours doing nothing got mogged by those working constantly and fired.

This is correct. If not lie, bend the truth.
A job I applied for had a section asking about published works that I have written. So I went and self published a couple of things. Then listed the self published works on my resume.
