Is there a single film that captures the feeling of going back to the office on a monday morning?
>>215053644A sense of purpose when you wake up, a short commute and a pleasant 4-5 hours of sitting by a desk having banter with your co workers?Sadly no, as people who make movies are the polar opposites of people who work in offices.
>>215053644One of my colleagues was on “sick leave” for a few weeks. Turns out she was actually completely distraught to the point of suicidal ideation because the publisher that published her YA book series folded, and now the final book in the series won’t be published. Her book seemed to be a decent seller, getting multiple printings and being available in “real” stores. Of course, she still has a day job and the publisher went out if business so it’s probably not very lucrative, but she spent years crafting and promoting that series, taking it to conventions, etc. I feel really bad for her. She’s a completely different person since this announcement. She says self publishing is a “death sentence in the eyes of possible future publishers”, is this accurate?
>>215053756If the series was that popular she could just take it to another publisher.
>>215053682>sense of purpose when you wake uplolLOL
>>215053756Teenagers still read?
>>215053682Is this a bot post?
>>215053682

>>215053756give her the D bro. lift her spirits up.
>>215053644So grateful I'm not a longhoused officel

>>215053682hello HR
>>215053756what's her feet look like?
>>215053644Absolutely none.Then again, I largely work from home now so Tuesdays are more annoying.
>>215053756How many books does one need to sell to be considered profitable? Even a lot of "hit" books sell under 1000 copies
>>215053756if she’s actually sold copies and done all the convention shit, she must have the connections to find another publisher
>>215053644Under the Silver Lakeit's not about that, but it captures that feeling. You know what I mean?
>>215053756Does a publisher retain rights if they go out of business?
>>215055885I don't, actually.
Oslo, August 31sthttps://youtube.com/shorts/QHgfAzQk5A8?si=9i9Qze6E8lsAB8A6
>>215053756now tell her that shes a hack and that she should stop writing fanfiction smutthe talentless should not engage in public artistic endeavors
>>215055862Can't you just rent space at a convention? Latza did that.
>>215053682>4-5 hoursnewsflash, it's 8 hours
>>215053644Clockwatchers
>>215053756i am distraught and think about suicide every day for months in a serious manner what do i need to do to get such a sick leave?
>>215059080Where are you from? Most jobs in the West don't require the employee to give details when they call in sick.
>>215059080>>215059126Also, FWIW most corporate jobs actually offer psychological leave and counseling.
>>215059053It's actually 1-2 hours for WFH chads.
>>215053644
>>215053644i’m posting on 4chan from the office ask me anything
>>215053644"Nie lubię poniedziałku", a Polish commie-era comedy about, well, going back to work on Monday
>>215059275Are you doing it from your work computer? I used to do that 10+ years ago, but the website is way too (in)famous for me to do that now.
>>215059311my phone since it’s what this board deserves
>>215053682I could never banter with my coworkers. Really glad I have a job where I work by myself now
>>215058694No woman lives like this.
>>215053756>She says self publishing is a “death sentence in the eyes of possible future publishers”, is this accurate?as an aspiring writer, i've heard this too. i think its because publishers retain some exclusive rights so on the minuscule chance the book goes "viral" they get a paydayhowever i've also heard a theory that NYT bestsellers are often bestsellers because the wealthy fucks who publish their memiors or retarded books just buy a FUCKTON of copies of thier own book
>>215053682if you can’t get published don’t even bother self publishing
>>215059325>since it's what this website deservesFTFY
I have to work to support my daughters.
>>215059767What would you do if they told you they wanted to get bimbofied because they (correctly) believed it would greatly improve their prospects on the job and dating markets?
>>215059382You’d be surprised.
>>215059369I could banter with coworkers when I worked blue collar jobs but now that I work in an office I always got a be careful. Never know who's a snitch
>>215059382It’s the price for getting pinkpilled.
>>215053644the Zapruder film LOL
>>215059867Only if her husband pays for it
>>215060391They need the bimbofication to find a husband.
>>215053644How do I get a fake e-mail job?I can't stand physical labour anymore. I'm just 27 and my whole body hurts. I'll just cripple myself for the privilege of earning minimum wage that isn't even enough for me to move out until I die.
>>215060422they wouldn’t find a husband worth having or one that would breed with her, a good husband is more than just rich
>>215059767
>>215053644The women where I work all treat me like im a baby they have to look after. I'm the only male in the office. They are always giving me food they cooked and whatnot and always coming to sit with me and asking me about my life and if im ok and so on. Its very weird but women always treat me like this. I dunno what I do that makes them behave this way. If its relevant I was mentally abused growing up.
>>215060520they sense you’re sexually neutered, try putting up a picture of you with a casually dressed prostitute and pretend she’s your gf
>>215059126I work in HR and you dont need to actually tell your employer what you are out sick for. You can literally just have the doctor write in the note that they believe you need to be out from work. They dont need to actually say the reason.
>>215060561i always go with implying it’s diarrhea, even if they don’t ask for an explanation
>>215060547My boss cried when I quit my previous job lol. I was her work husband. She was nice but the pay was bad so thats the only reason I left.
>>215060640and
>>215054073That's the target audience for everything now it seems like
>>215060663Should’ve dated her for promotion bro
>>215053682You can tell who's a Sperg by how insulted they get by simple truths
>>215060663Was she an older MILF? Did you at least hit it?
>>215053756>She says self publishing is a “death sentence in the eyes of possible future publishers”,Sounds retarded. If anything, the internet has shown that if you're making something people want, you can become wildly successful without having to deal publishers. Why the fuck does she even care about being 'published' when book stores are going out of business every minute? The novelty of seeing a hardcover book? Just about everyone is going to read it digitally on their iPad anyway. Why would you actually WANT to be tied down to a publisher and deal with them leeching off you too?I happy for her to have a project, but she sounds retarded.
>>215053756Dod you read her books?
>>215059415If you're an aspiring writer, don't even think about going through a publisher. Books don't sell, with even best sellers barely selling a few thousand copies. The best outlet for writing in 2025 is just to self publish digitally. Preferably make it a little multimedia with an audio version on Youtube, maybe some still images to go with the audio. Make it something people stumble across and is easily accessible. It's crazy that writers actually think there are people browsing through book stores and buying things because the summary on the back sounds cool. That died with the iPad. Put your own work out there and do it all yourself. It's not just cheaper, easier, and quicker than going through a publisher, you actually get to retain all rights to it so you don't get screwed down the line. There is quite literally no reason to ever go through a publisher. Hell, if even if you want physical copies, you can set up a Patreon and have them printed yourself.
>>215059684What movie?
>>215062919First season to True Detective.Welcome to /tv/.
>>215062006>>215062461horrible advice, amazon is filled with self published books that disappeared into a void
>>215063653It's filled with self-published pajeet AI slop.
>>215058513>I, as a mature adult, only read history books that are totally not fabricated fanfiction
>>215060663>work husbandhow does one achieve this? any tips?
>>215064692don't be (you)
This is how I want to live life.
>>215053644Not even the most depressing films can replicate that feeling, no.
>>215065129Disingenuous, kenji's parents is high ranking employees at toyota or mitsubishi or some shit
>>215065129Watch ‘nor gather into barns’ to see what this lifestyle looks like when you aren’t rich.
>>215065129NEET life is fun during the honeymoon phase but mutates into a fucking nightmare that gets harder to escape the longer you go on. People lose all respect for you and look at you like a space alien when they find out you aren't working or in school. It's a constant state of humiliation whenever you interact with others.
>>215065362>interact with othersWhy the fuck would you want to do that?
>>215065430See what I meanit's a self perpetuating cycle
>>215053644Frozen 2No, I will not elaborate
>>215065362> People lose all respect for youdisregard people embrace the hobo
>>215058694>>215059881>>215059382w*men claim to be lonely like daisy the femcel, but they still have an orbit of simps, they get asked out, they have people texting them constantly and even get invited to events from work colleagues.a true /tv/cel can spend weeks if not months without ever getting texts or speaking to w*men.
>>215065362Have you met people? You have no reason to respect their opinions.
>>215065362The actual state of humiliation is being a grown up man still on support by parents, but we know damn well neets have no feel of shame
>>215066321>but we know damn well neets have no feel of shamemost of the ones that rage about wagies all day are just coping, but some of them are genuinely that retarded
