Wage slaves of /v/, what do you think about at work during your mind numbing 8 hour shifts?
>>338348554
Boobs mostly.
obscure fetishes that I have.
Mostly been thinking about if I'll ever finish Dark Reign.
Sleep
Vidya

Why I haven't offed myself yet
Dr.pepper
>>338348554
I talk about vidya and shit with my coworkers. It's nice working among people I actually like.
>>338348554
All the small things I can do to rebel against my corporate overlords.
jacking off on company time, taking supplies, etc
>>338348554
I think about what animu to watch next or what game to play next.
I work night shifts.... with nobody to supervise me. So I can just watch animu and play handheld vidya all night.
>>338349114
this minus the PoE and I drink Diet Dr. Pepper.
>>338348554
>8 hour shifts
Not here in Japan.
10 hours master race reporting.
>>338349228
Glad we have that much in common
>>338349220
Zach?
>>338349271
How do they do it?
>>338348554
I work 10 hours a day but I get Fridays off so its pretty ok
>>338348554
I work third shift by myself so I get paid to surf 4chan and play my handhelds
>>338348554
Killing myself any way possible or raping a woman in the back room. Mainly killing myself. Also vidya.
I noticed recently that when I'm working my mind tends to disappear. My conscious mind at least. I am literally zoned out and become a worker drone for 3-4 hours straight until someone speaks to me and i snap out of it.
Boobs
Food
Existential Dread
Sometimes I come up with cool shit to implement in the videogames I'll attempt to make and never finish.
>>338349271
There's 10 hour shifts in Amerifat land too, mostly warehouses. One warehouse I worked at even had a 12 hour shift.
10 hour shifts are hell.
The 12 hour shift was probably the worst thing I'll ever do in my life and afterlife but damn if it didn't pay well.
>>338348554
Well, I work in front of a 3000 degree oven and around hot HF. So, really, just try not to die.
>>338349554
When cashiering for long periods of time I can zone out and just let the time fly, my body knowing automatically everything that I need to do, but damn if I can't get into that zone then time slows to a fucking crawl.
>>338349554
Its god tier when this happens but all it takes is one asshole to be a prick and throw you off your groove then you are spending the rest of the shift trying to recover.
I spend a lot of time in the bathroom playing my Vita.
And a majority of the other time at my desk playing Granblue or Picross on my phone. When I get bored of those, Kindle.
Sometimes I just stare at the screen blankly and sort of do this half meditate half sleep thing.
They pay me just because state regulations require x number of people in the department at all times. I rarely actually do work.
>>338348554
I usually just go into auto-pilot and think about the design of games I like or have recently played.
>>338348554
I think about what to eat afterwards since I'm on my feet all day. Being a waitress is a tiring job mentally and physically. Having to walk around all day and dealing with customers is pretty draining. And whenever I do dishes, I kinda zone out and wonder where I went wrong in several places or just hum random songs.
I also wonder what manga I'm going to read next or game I'm gonna play when I get home.
>>338348554
My shifts this week are only for 5-5.5 hours.
Haven't gotten there yet but I specifically picked a mentally intense job so I would never get bored.
>>338349781
What do you do for work? I'd like to get a desk job anon.
>>338349781
>>338349431
>>338349220
What the fuck kind of job do you guys have?
I want it
>>338349857
You read silver spoon?
12 hour days from Mon - Fri while on Saturday it's 8 hours.
I'll play stuff when I'm not buggered I guess, I've been getting less bothered with games though since I don't really have the time to play them.
I think many people will relate to this.
I spend my whole shift thinking of what game I'm going to play, what I'm going to do in it, how I can get around something I stopped at.
But when I come home from work on tired, and I just do some bullshit on the Internet and go to sleep.
I don't, I just work my shift then go home, masturbate then sleep.
>>338349923
Half of /v/ claims to be night time security.
>>338348554
Lately I feel like I'm literally a character from The Sims
My job consists of
>Walking from station to station doing specific things and specific stations
>Once one thing is over with I just go on to the next
>Sometimes co-workers start talking to each other, they ask some random bullshit and then abruptly stop talking and walk away in complete silence to go do more useless tasks.
>Only ever leave the windowless room I work in to go to the bathroom/eat
>At the end of it all everyone says goodbye while walking out
>Rinse and repeat every fucking day
I also work 9.5 hour shifts because my job are jews and don't want to pay me for my 30 minute lunch break, so I have to work extra.
>>338349948
>only one day off a week
>>338349554
I hate this shit, I've been going for longer and longer periods of time without conscious thought. It's just surface thoughts that I don't even remember and sometimes I stop and actually think, I haven't been -here- for a long time.
>>338348554
I transcribe college classes. I can't think without fucking up and missing words.

Shopfitter, work has been crazily busy for the last few months
>>338349923
I work at a small time ISP that has 24/7 customer support
The shitty software we use at my work takes so long I can easily play Hearthstone on my phone all day.
I got it pretty sweet ngl
>>338349958
this is literally everyone I think. The worst is spending the whole week looking forward to the weekend and make big plans about what I'm going to do.
I've been home for 3 hours and I've done nothing but eat dinner and dick around on the computer.
I actually am at work.
I bring agaming laptopto work and either watch movies all night or play vidya. Sometimes both.
>>338350290
Let me guess, security guard?
>>338350274
It depends on how long I have until my next day of work. If I have more than 4 hours before I'd need to sleep, then I have no trouble doing whatever. Otherwise I just dick around online and get ready for sleep.
>>338349947
I'm juggling Minami-ke, Initial D, Himegoto: Juukyuusai no seifuku, AKB 49, and Love and Lies.
>>338350169
How does it feel to know that they're waiting for you to provide them enough proof against you in court?
>>338349958
I do that but it's even worse because I work second shift.
I come home at midnight, stay up like two hours and then sleep for ten despite setting several alarms. Then surprise, I don't have enough time to do anything besides get ready for work.
This thread is honestly making me want to blow my brains out.
>>338348554
I fix planes for a living so i spend my brain power on not losing stuff, safety procedures, solving maintenance publications and the vidya.
>>338350274
I just click on random threads, or watch a random YouTube video.
I have about 10 games that are 10+GB, that I torrented, but have yet to even fucking install because I don't give a shit about anything after work.
>>338348554
>Work at a shitty call center

>Ditch work to play vidya

Fuck this gay earth.
Stuff I want to play or stuff I want to jack off to.
Having a near permanent erection is awful sometimes but I just can't help myself.
>>338350349
Yeah. Pay is decent for the amount of work I do or rather don't do.
I still don't get why neets don't do night time security work. They basically pay you to goof off.
>>338350425
I can't read romance mangas. The feels are too strong for me
>>338350290
>Browsing 4chan at work
Who the fuck would do this?
I don't work but I walk.
4 hours every day.
Thinkgen bout vidya
>>338350561
I do when it gets slow, good thing I'm literally by myself.
>>338350638
He's probably works security or some shit
>>338349554
I wish I could do that. The last job I had was in a asembling factory. I almost went nuclear because I couldn't stop thinking, and the time seemed to be so slow, I ended up feeling every 8-hour shifts as 12-hour ones. And boy, I've worked for the japs, so I know about 12-hour shifts.
>>338348554

it never ends
>>338350549
There's one thing I've learned anon and it's don't take shit. These people look at you because they're lives are shit and shitting on you makes them feel better. Stand up for yourself a bit and tell them to fuck off. Let them an hero or kill their spouse.
>>338350638I do
I work weekends at a money exchange place so I'm alone all times.
In fact, I'm doing it right now.
>>338350638
I do because it's probably my biggest source of passing time at home besides sleeping. There's one guy at work who I'm like 99% also browses 4chan but won't admit it, keeps trying to sneak a peek at my phone, constantly asking what I'm doing.
>>338348554
What I'm gonna masturbate to when I get home.
>>338349580
12 hour shift overnights here 6-6
3 day workweek with 4 days off for vidya. Those 3 days go by very fast since i have no time for relaxing or slacking at work. I have to stay very busy and keep moving for my entire shift. when i get home i take my sleeping pills and then before i know its time to go back to work.
I don't really live until my days off, those 3 days a week are basically full robot mode. I think about all the grinding and hype myself for vidya for my days off, but i usually just end up 420blaze it and browse 4chan when i actually get my free time.
>>338350638
I did until I almost got caught on /gif/
i work 12 hour shifts in a warehouse
only have to do 5 hours on average though, then get to go home
also only work 4 days at the most too
pretty sweet in all fairness, so much free time to not play vidya
I'm typically listening to music most of the time
>>338350430
Are you saying the shit we build isn't safe? I'm getting mixed messages from what you're attempting to say buuuuuut it feels great

Surveillance. There isn't much to actively watch. The most work I've done in the past few months is making a report on a homeless guy that wandered through and burned a DVD for an insurance company with a car crash that happened outside.

If you check that you don't have a car on an application, most employers won't even bother reading the rest of it.
Anyone here do data entry? I'm going to start on Monday, and I was wondering if anyone has any advice.
>>338351045
>Mega clit masturbation
Saw an exaggerated doujin of this the other day. My dick was basically non-existent for hours.
>>338350561
>I still don't get why neets don't do night time security work.
Because security work generally requires some level of fitness/intimidation. Nobody is going to listen to a fat neet.
>>338351028
>walk to nearest place
>"hey i live right down the street so i'll never have trouble getting here"
>call back every couple days after you put in your application to show that you really want the job

They just ask if you have reliable transportation. Unless you are applying as a driver no one gives a fuck how you get to work as long as you get there on time.
>go to work: coworkers try to get you laid
>go to bar: friends try to get you laid

>>338349857
>waitering is a tiring job
Yeah no kidding, I'm a bartender and I frequently look after tables on the side when the bar is relatively quiet, the customers ordering food are fucking annoying and rarely tip. Us folks serving alcohol have it easy, maybe try aiming for that.
>>338351102
>if you check you don't have a car on an application
I have never seen an application ask if I had a car. Where do you live?
I think the best job you can get for neet life and buying vidya is a night shift in a small call center
I used to work in one and I was changed to the night shift for a week and there were only like 3 people in the entire building, no supervisors, fucking saw 1 guy sleeping below his cubicle desk once, we had to answer like 1-3 calls the entire shift and we could use our phones and literally do anything until the morning
I have two jobs (three soon).
One job is operator, so I just transfer phones and playDirt Rally and Civilization 5all day.
My other job I do while I'm drunk, because everyone is drunk and I get paid in beer.
>>338350971
apply anyway. the experience requirements are a gating tool to keep uncommitted people away.
>>338348554
>work as security faggot
>sit in a room with nice view, waiting for shit to happen

Either you go for a proper career, or you go for the easiest way to make money. Everyone in between is full retard.
>>338351336
did you have to go to college or a trade school to be one or do they just train you at the bar at a price
I put up posters around the city, so I get to play vidya whenever I'm on the subway.
I play shit like Monster Hunter Freedom Unite so the rest of the time I'm just calculating how to tackle a monster more efficiently.
I work about 10 hours a day, every once in awhile 24 hours.
But of those 10 hours I'm only actually working for like... 3 or 4 most of the time.
The rest of the time I'm reading manga on my phone, emulating GBA games or hiding and taking a nap.
>>338351323
Not him, but it really depends on where you work.
Shit like Walmart is definitely shit, while shit like currency exchanges are pretty comfy.
>>338351470
Military?
I work in a research division of a fairly large semiconductor equipment company
there's too much work to think of anything else, it's hardly mind numbing
I do however think of what game I will be playing after work, because there's only enough time to get a decent amount of playing in for like 2 or 3 games before bed
>>338351538
The 24 hours give me away?
>>338351416
I work in a call center right now but it's making outgoing calls mostly. I've done incoming jobs before and it's actually pretty snug a lot of the time
I imagine at most call centers though you'd be forced to do outgoing as well though because they don't want to pay you just to wait for calls that don't come but maybe I just haven't found the right place
>>338351454
Not the bartender, but in my state, you need a license to serve. The job usually trains you for that, here at least.
>>338351197
>When there's a slow day at work and a chill manager on duty
Letting your "chill manager" on duty that you browse the worst place on the internet. Bravo, retard.
>>338351454
It was my first job in fact, I started out as a kitchen porter for 5 months, no work experience, the manager decided to move me to the bar because people he needed someone reliable behind the bar, turns out people in the UK are pretty lousy workers so its easier for us emigrants. Having good communication skills and fluent grasp of the native language helps.
>>338351626
No, the hiding and sleeping did.
No private sector job has that and no civil servant job has hours that long.
>>338351626
Nah, its more the mandatory overtime despite there not being enough work to require it.
Seems to be a common trend with military jobs.
>>338348554
I think about vidya.
And how much I want to play vidya.
And that's about it.
>>338351416
>>338351683
Call Centers are the worst fucking place on the planet. Unless you get good pay but that's rarely the case.
I work at soda factory/brewery in a packing line. I have eight hour shifts but I got two half hour shifts that are part of the day so I basically work seven hours per day.
Its a three shift job so every week has different schedule.
Next week is nigh-shift from 10pm to 6am, which pays extra too.
Then is evening shift from 2pm to 10pm
And lastly morning shift from 6am to 2pm.
Most I do is get the materials and keep the machines topped up with materials for the packages then supervise it a bit so it all looks fine and dandy. Then sit down, shitpost here for 5-10 minutes, then fill machines up, check up the packages, clear up malfunctions if any appears, then shitpost some more.
>>338348554
Art that I could be doing but end up not doing, because I come home and play video games
>>338348554
I put in 70 hours most weeks. I own my own company, and fuck no I'm not telling any of you what it is. So I have to do everything from filing claims for employees to sales when a rep slacks off or disappears. I'm up late most nights either working the numbers or refining the product and marketing.
I could hire people to do most of that but why? Instead of someone there for a paycheck I get to keep the profit. Or more accurately reinvest it.
I estimate another 8 years of this and I can retire. Or sell if anyone shows interest. Work excites me, always has. I have never wasted work hours. Which is exactly how I got to this point.
Hoping I (or my co-workers) don't fuck up while welding cause that's extra time we have to spend fixing shit. Other than that, nothing really. Kinda go into autopilot until I get off work.
>>338348554I shitpost on /v/
What of it?
>>338351760
also just to add up to that
The business I work for uses e-learning modules so you can get trained online for free, whilst practicing during work hours.
I was working standby EMS at a casino earlier today, so I just sat in a room for 12 hours and played the last remnant on my laptop.
Invocations are such shit, I should have made Rush a dual wielder.
>>338351323
It depends on the customers you get. Some days it's ok, other times it isn't. I work at a local family owned restaurant with extremely loyal customers. The kind that keep going to eat in for 40+ years. So most know the menu and how we operate. I also enjoy the stories some of the older patrons tell, what they did when they were younger and stuff like that.
>>338351336
Yeah, since I'm not allowed to sit and almost always moving, my feet usually hurt by the end of my shift.
Thinking about the Blue Oyster Cult and my various card game and gunpla hobbies mostly.
>>338351683
I worked as a technical support rep that's why I didn't make calls, also nobody is going to make outgoing calls at 3am in the morning senpai, try looking for an small isp or retail store call center
The regular shift was hell on earth though that's why I had to quit, I couldn't stay too long in the night shift either because I go to uni and I was only there because another guy was 'sick' for a week
>>338351767
On that note I am really fucking good at sleeping in awkward positions.
>>338351783
The thing is that the military likes to try to be efficient, but that shit doesn't happen.
If we go for awhile without our shit breaking and nothing crazy going on then we could be rolling out right after lunch every day, if not before.
The higher ups see that, assume we can do the same amount of work with less people if we work a standard day, and we lose said extra people.
Then shit hits the fan and we all get fucked.
So we bullshit a lot and pretend to work longer hours than we honestly do so the big dogs way up top don't fuck us raw later.
A lot of that gets lost somewhere along the line because we end up doing stupid bullshit.
Which I hide and sleep for.
>>338348554
I usually wonder what /v/ is raging about next. News and entertainment sites update once or twice a day, but here there's some fresh hell every hour, and the catalog is totally different from the beginning to the end of the day.
>>338349876
enjoy your burnout anon
>>338351830
is there a differential for the swing itself?
if you're only getting extra for the night shift you are getting fucked good my friend.
>>338350638
I used to work with an architect, and he was almost all day out of the office, so I had plenty of time to do whatever the fuck I wanted.
I miss that job.
>>338351830
>Its a three shift job so every week has different schedule.
Rotating shifts has to be one of the most disgusting things employers have come up with. I work nights, I understand no one wants to work nights and its hard to find employees for those hours, I don't like the hours I work myself. But I'd rather work nights forever than alternating back and forth every other week and never getting solid sleep, fuck that.
>>338351931
Please come back to us classic Spoony.
>>338349876
I did that.
If you like it and find short-term satisfaction, then you won't break. If you don't, well, good luck.
>>338352051
Who else works at a call center?
I think about the 58 dollars I just made...per hour.
And all the vidya I could buy with it,but choose not to...because I already bought all the vidya I actually "need".
>>338348554
I work in construction and I feel that actually seeing my progress as I put up walls helps get me through. Also I can listen to my own music and the pay is good so that helps.
Every work day for the past 9 years have been spent with me giggling about the last dank meme i saw before going to bed the night before.
4chan has always gotten me through the work week.
>>338352220
>I think about the 58 dollars I just made...per hour.
What kind of job is this?
>>338348554
>He works eight hours a day
4 hour shifts master race reporting in.
What do I think about during my shift? Well, about the things necessary to do my job properly in 4 hours.
>>338348554
suicide, mostly
School night janitor, I just zone out to music and work. Usually my thoughts will be about vidya and food I'm gonna have when I get home or if there's any little errands I need to do for tomorrow.
Quit my job a month ago. I'm never working a 9-5 job again.
Doing piece-meal contract work here and there from now on.
Full time work is an unacceptable waste of life.

>get security license

>have a job within the week
>cushy as fuck
that was how I did it, though getting paid to do nothing gets boring fairly quick so I moved on to something else. But if you want to get hired do it that way, Securitas and US security are both good.
>>338352006
>Yeah, since I'm not allowed to sit and almost always moving, my feet usually hurt by the end of my shift.
That's normal but if your feet hurt really bad maybe consider buying a new pair of work shoes on a higher budget, don't skimp out on that. Mine cost me £95 and I don't regret it.
>>338352198
I do, working the night shift at one but it's only part time so it doesn't pay enough.
It's pretty chill though, we're allowed to have out anything like kindles, books and stuff just not our phones for confidentiality reasons which makes no sense.
>>338352125
>you will never have a consistent work schedule
Fuck my life. I don't even find out next week's schedule until the day before which is Sunday.
>>338352198
I work IT at a University.
For the summer, they transferred their staff to other departments because summer means less issues to work on.
I got transferred to Operator. So now, I have to figure out Johnny Freshman's problems because he doesn't know what the fuck he wants.
And then you get Indians on the other side. Fucking awful phone manners.
And I still get paid jack shit.
>>338352348
what was your old job and what do you do for money now?
>>338352301
Made up job of course.
>>338351149
lol no it doesn't, security's protocol is literally "observe and report" you're not a cop and you shouldn't pretend to be

I wish I could become a drug dealer.
>>338352302
>What do I think about during my shift? Well, about the things necessary to do my job properly in 4 hours.
this. work consumes my thoughts at work. i run into some psychosomatic trouble if i let my mind wander to my existential dread while performing meaningless repetitive tasks for hours on end. Try to focus on the monotony moment by moment otherwise i could become a danger to females.
>>338348554
How much I'm dead inside, and whats the point of even trying at anything anymore.

A real one. Particuarly in marketing for web design and different automobile brands.
Since it's by the hour and often not a true "9-to-5" it usually amounts to $1500 to $1800 per week. And because it's a contract job, I get paid every single week. None of that "two week period" or "once a month" bullshit.
It's nice...
>>338352198
I am not sure what you mean but in the one I worked there were many departments, like sales, ts, billing, tier 2, etc
I only had to make outgoing calls to follow up on customers issues but that was very rare, only sales had to call customers frequently obviously

I work in a technology development centre for an insurance companie, and the meetings there are super fucking boring. My job role means I spend 60 - 80% of my day sitting in a room listening to people talk. Usually my mind tends to wander (especially when we get into the nitty gritty of financial topics) and thats when I inexplicable conjure up sexy thoughts. Not regular sexy thoughts, super hot, boner inducing thoughts that give me a massive stiffy. Then I have to spend the rest of the meeting trying to shift it somewhere comfy while discreetly rubbing it, cause damn does it feel good. Outside the meeting, sexy thoughts almost never cross my mind.Sometimes I fantasize about co-workers in the room, and look them directly in the eye while rubbing myself

FUCK YOU
FUCK THESE THREADS
WHAT I MEAN BY "THESE THREADS" ARE THOSE THAT HAVE SOME SORT OF "HURR VIDYA" THING IN THE TEXTUAL PORTION OF THE OP YET ARE MADE WITH THE INTENT OF DISCUSSING SUCH THINGS AS PORN, ANIMU, /pol/SHIT, MEMES, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF GARBAGE. YOU FUCKS HAVE CAUSED THIS BOARD TO GO FROM BAD TO WORSE TO REDDIT-TIER TO 9GAG TIER.
THIS BOARD IS NOT /b/, IT IS NOT r9k/, ITS IS NOT /pol/, IT IS NOT /a/, IT IS NOT /e/, IT IS NOT /s/, AND SO ON. GET IT THROUGH YOUR FUCKING THICK SKULLS.
THIS IS ALSO NOT THE PLACE FOR YOUR SELF PITY. THREADS THAT TALK ABOUT HOW YOU'RE "SO DEPRESSED AND LIFE IS SOOOOOOO HARD" ARE NOT FUCKING VIDEO GAMES.
EVEN WORSE ARE THE THREADS THAT DON'T EVEN CONTAIN ANY SEMBLANCE F VIDEO GAMES, JUST GOT TO FUCKING /b/ OR SOMETHING IF YOU WANT TO DO THAT SHIT.

Working as a waiter is probably the best job I've ever had. Tips can get pretty crazy, and they're tax-free. People commend me on my abilities to deal with the customers. Ironically, I'm antisocial as fuck. I don't know where that waiter persona came from, but sure as fuck it helped me a lot.
>>338348554
Mostly i'm just stuck wiith yesterday's music.
I'm having a parttime job working in a post sorting centre. I get up around 4 AM in the morning, bike me way there and then sort packages to about 8:30 AM. It's not very comfortable but this way I can at least do my own stuff when in the afternoon, like focusing on my portfolio and the future.
>>338348554
More like 12 hour shifts for me. I usually get to use my cell phone, and if I'm lucky my Vita. I need to work at least a few of those hours though, otherwise days can really fucking drag on... Sometimes there just isn't anything to inspect though.

That depends entirely on where you are working and what kind of security it is. Low security, sure is pretty much exactly that, but lots of security jobs are not low security.

Inventory stocker here. I just kinda do my work. If it's during the first "phase" of work before the store opens (4am shift) then usually my coworkers and I will all chit chat and tell jokes or stories while working, or complain about life. Once the store opens we usually disperse to different sections and from there I just do work and zone out a bit, maybe think about some recent events or admire the pretty ladies around. Every now and then your section is next to another team member's and you can chit chat a bit, or a kiosk salesperson will give you some free food. It's not exactly boring to me, it's not fun either (except when I'm with a few bro-tier coworkers), I just do my work, snack during breaks, and go home. I don't feel drained from boredom or anything.

I work 13 hour shifts, and if I'm lucky I get to sneak a headphone through my button-down uniform so I can listen to music most of the day, but more of that time is me standing still for 10-12 hours putting things in boxes.
If I get time to think, aside from ignoring the sheer pain in my legs, I try to think about things I'd like to do on the weekend that I can't do, because I work from mon-fri 9am-7pm and a weekend shift 12-5am.
I hate my life hahahah

Yea there's some other extra nuances too that I cant remember right now.
But we do have free drinks on the house, free soda, bottled water, mineral waters as much as you like.
Then every month you can order 24 cans/bottles of product of your choosing. Sodas, water, energy drinks every month, alcohol every second month.
Then there's "production pay" some sort extra payment that they'll pay if overall production rate, quality etc. was good.
>>338352125
Its not that bad, seems to work for me. Though overall I feel bit exhausted but at least I know after this if I want to do other jobs with similar shifts.
Trick is to go sleep after work, then you'll get to sleep as much as you need instead of some pre set time that may not be enough, leaving you tired.

by killing themselves. I used to do 10-14 hours a day. Swing driver at fedex. Shit is hell. you wake up at 4am. Go to work at 5am. Do a delivery route at 6am. Come back at 11. do another delivery route. take a hour break. Then do a pick up route at 4pm until 9pm. I basically got 60 hours every week. Shit was hell. The worst part was I made more money at my old job doing 8 hour shifts. I did that for 4 months and then went part time because I was going to kill myself.
>>338353085

As annoying as certain things could be during that job, it was certainly a fun time. The supervisor always lost his shit when we would joke each other for being white/black.

Because the coddling of the American mind and that people go to Uni when they really have no business being there.
So you get people being told that they're special snowflakes and people who think everything belongs to them.
It just becomes a mess of campus culture when NOBODY talks.
>>338353104
>student loan dept, rent, car payments, and money for food and gas ensure that I'm left with no money leftover to save
Oh boo hoo. If you are suffering from student loan repayment, then you were too stupid to have gone to that overprice school in the first place.
If are suffering from car payments, you should not have leased or financed that overpriced piece of shit you're driving.
If you're suffering from all 3 - it sounds like you were always living above your means and now it's finally biting you in the ass for being a fucking retard who doesn't plan a head and properly budget your resources.
Does anyone actually on /v/ do illegal activity as their job? Remember, we're all anonymous.

Work for a major American car company in a Union shop. I pay around $80 for union dues a month. But full benefits, pays for my school, bonuses throughout the year etc.
Have to put up with salary though. Salary workers make it their mission to fuck with union workers. Sending people home for stupid shit. Number crunching, making shit up based off of their garbage math, and trying to bust balls for "lack of productivity".
The job has me moving boxes around all day. Thankfully I work in the large parts of the warehouse. Wheels, exhausts, mufflers, etc. If a salary worker ever flags me down to get my attention, I usually wait until they're just close enough to possibly hear what they're saying, then drive in the opposite direction and take a break.
As for making $30, that's all I'll ever make. No higher, but can't go lower. Our temporary employees start at $15.87.
What's a job that lets you do the least amount of actual work? I don't care about the pay as long as it keeps me on existence minimum.
>>338348554
I always think about how much I regret not getting enough sleep. Or I think about how much I wish I was sleeping at the moment.
I also think about how I wish I was playing video games or watching anime instead of doing what I'm doing. I sometimes I get really horny out of nowhere and try to destroy my boner by thinking about dead nuns or something, but it never works and my mind wanders way too much.
I work from 10pm-6am. I usually park in a nice area, turn on my 3ds and just waste it away. It's a seriously quiet place and almost never get calls or see people despite the occasional crack head walking on the side of the street.
Currently playing : earthbound.
Next up: one anon recommended soya frontier. Though I'm open to other time sinks.
Really though I have a bad case of insomnia so this works. My girlfriend works days so I leave when she sleeps, and I wake up when she comes home. Everything just fits nicely

I work, 3 hours a day and get paid 50000 SEK each month by my parents. I manage our family webpage and respond to mail.
So can only play games for like 12 hours a day
>>338352817
a few years ago I studied at a maritime college where during the summers you had to go out on the school's training ship to get sea time. Since there were way more of us onboard than actual jobs they thought up pointless tasks to make our lives even more miserable than they already were.
One such task was to have a person standing watch at the bow of the ship 24 hours a day, never mind that the people on the bridge have a much longer visual sight radius since they're higher up, and they have radar so they'd see anything coming long before it was even in visual range, never mind that it is always windy as fuck on the deck of a ship.
I don't know if you've ever been out to sea but at night time it gets absolutely pitch black, like how dark it gets if you're driving on a country road and turn out your headlights. You can't see ANYTHING. Lots of people who were doing the overnight bow watch would jack off while they were there to pass the time,wecalled it a bow thruster.
>>338350561
in the location i'm at all the security forces are like the total opposite

>Fall asleep for the next 15 hours until I have to go to work again
And then instead of playing video games over the weekends when I'm off, I'm dicking around on the internet or spending too much time on /v/. Seriously, it's the worst shit ever. I need to finish video games and I just can't bring myself to have the energy for it most of the time.

This thread is why I'm a NEET
Worked shop floor for Tesco's, got moved cashiers just yesterday for managing to somehow get ten customer recommendations during my time covering there.
I dunno how people survive months on grocery, it's a killer on the body and is mentally grating because of how tedious it is. I'm not really /fit/ though so it's probably just me being a weak sauce. Checkouts makes time fly though since you can just autopilot, so hopefully I won't have to think much at all.

>not allowed to sit
this is still one of the most retarded policies ever
like it's totally understandable when there's actual work to be done but places that have "anti-sitting" policies even when there isn't shit going on is some of the most draconian bullshit ever
