>>296920>>296811 (OP)>>296834I had a similar job, folding boxes at a soulless warehouse production room to package candies. I elaborated on it in the last thread a bit; I got fired because the manager was a power-tripping faggot that hated me because I wasn't totally subservient to him. If you're working and your manager keeps complaining about superficial shit, it's over and you'll be fired soon; it's not your fault, it's just that the manager's a bitter faggot from wageslaving for years.
I worked at that shit tier gas station that payed me close to min wage and blatantly sold illegal vapes and made thousands every shift I had, (pic related) there was no nightshift rate or weekend rate either and they made me pay for till shortfalls too which is illegal.
Anyway Anon, the moral of my post is that if you're not NT, it's fucking over in terms of work and relationships; it's weird how normies can tolerate this endless horror without any sense of discomfort like farm animals being lined up to slaughter.
I still have flashbacks of having a customer throw a credit card at me while screaming because I told him to prepay once.

>>296811 (OP)I worked for company A for 2 years. It was a small warehouse, me and 2 other revolving guys. I kept busy taking care of the day to day stuff of the warehouse while carefully avoiding any physical toil.
Well, about 6 months ago, Company A merged with Company B, as my boss purchased a failing company. No one else came over but my boss asked for me to come over, even paying for my travel until I got a driver's licence.
I was given a seat in the office of 3 other people. These other people are always working away doing sales for Company B (the companies are still considered separate). There are 3 in the warehouse picking and packing. I was given an office uniform.
Well ever since then for the past 6 months I've basically been chilling at my desk in the office. My day consists of scrolling and trying to look busy while getting happy when my boss once in a week asks me to do something. Again in the old place I was taking care of the day to day of the warehouse but that role is already filled over here.
I've tried learning skills but I can't really focus when I'm worried someone's going to come by and see my screen.
I don't think the members of Company B actually know I don't have any work to do otherwise I think I'd have been shown the door by now.
I want to ask for more work but I don't want to be told, go help in the warehouse. I don't want to do manual labor. I would happily do any office task, however tedious, I just don't want to do anything physical.
Any ideas? I know I should be looking for another job. But in order for me to get certified in something it would take months and I don't know how long I can take this anymore.

>>297595>>297596 is right. Security guards are the eyes of the law - nothing else. The most you'll have to do is tell someone they're trespassing, and in a lot of positions that is done over a CCTV intercom. Inner city security work has its own quirks like informing hobos and drug addicts that they can't be there, repeatedly, every night. As an overnight mall cop your job is more of a legal requirement for buildings of a certain size, so they don't get sued if some kid who was hiding in the mall overnight falls off the escalator and dies because nobody was there to tell him he wasn't allowed to be there. Also you just need to make sure the building doesn't burn down and that you inform daytime staff of any damages or oddities you found so they can attend to them before shoppers are allowed in.
That is, if you're not working as a response security. Guarding bank trucks, hospitals, courthouses, and buildings that themselves deal in security will require you to be ready to shoot someone in the face at all times. You will be tested for strength, mental health, drug abstinence, criminal record, and general intelligence before being hired as a guy who gets to shoot people in the face.

How do you deal with losing all intellectual curiosity and drive? I used to be severely poor and the only thing I was passionate about was learning math and coding and physics and shit. In my freetime I would work through textbooks and do those online coding challenges. It was a fun escape for me. I would say my interest was genuine at that time. However I became a wageslave and managed to escape complete poverty, but simultaneously I lost any and all interest and drive I formerly had. I don't get excited to learn something new anymore. I try to motivate myself for months but all I do is sleep, eat, work. How do wizards escape the rut of only doing the bare minimum? I don't think I'm depressed, just too content. I think my drive before was a result of sublimation of unfulfilled desires. I lost sex drive some time ago, and I'm no longer cold and hungry and I sleep on a bed instead of a floor. I guess it was an escape from my situation but I don't have anything to escape from now just endless comfort and boring but tolerable wageslaving in an endless loop forever. What is the solution to this? Cutting out distractions doesn't do anything because I'll just sleep all day anyways.

At my work there actually is something exactly like what you described. There's an extremely intense focus on 1 particular metric, basically sales. If you don't hit your "goal", you get fired. If you exceed the "goal" you get massive life changingly large bonuses, raises, promotion, etc.
I give 0 fucks about it. I usually don't even reach the quota. I do only bare minimum to not get fired. I have less than 0 interest in progressing. Actually I actively resist it, because promotions just means more work, higher expectations, and running harder in the wagie hamster wheel to please your sociopathic masters.
I hate working in general, being NEET wasn't an option for me and homelessness and near homeless adjacent living was miserable and chaotic.

>>297938My job is "okay". It's an office job but not exactly great. Some days it's extremely busy from start to finish since it's basically a call center. So on busy days you are having to talk to strangers for 9 hours straight with maybe 10 - 15 seconds between calls. However it is comfy enough compared to many my previous jobs. Just barely tolerable. The pay keeping me in my own apartment is really what keeps me going, I still remember the 10+ hrs of working physical labor,in person customer service, tons of really awful and miserable jobs. So this is an "upgrade". Actually I sometimes miss working back of house in kitchens, even though that was hard work it felt somehow rewarding and also low stakes. Also I had other jobs that were way more chill which I miss. I worked at a very small hotel in the front desk, but literally many nights only 2 people checked in or maybe 0 people, so that job was literally just paying me many weeks and weeks to just show up, clock in, and play video games or read books or lurk imageboards all night with 0 actual work. My favorite job of all was a security guard. It was even better because instead of being at a static location, I got to go to all sorts of different places. Huge convention centers, random fields in the middle of nowhere, huge variety of spots. I got to explore huge building complexes late at night with no one else around. Furthermore the job itself was literally to just exist. Didn't even have to pretend to be busy, just wandering around listening to music etc. This was my dream job and I loved it to death. I love exploring and wandering, even as a kid I always dreamed of getting to walk around inside all those buildings and stuff as like the last person on earth and security guard literally was getting paid to live out that fantasy. 0 socialization, 0 normalgroids since most coworkers were wizard types too, and anyways you only saw them at the morning when changing shifts.
The ultimate bonus was they would fly me or pay me to go to different cities and states. And pay for hotel room for entire assignments. So I got to travel and explore random places all over the country and get paid for it.
I can't stress enough how much I loved that fucking job. It was literally the fucking end game job for a wizard like me. Sadly the pay was very low, and the company was very sketchy/unreliable and often didn't pay us on time,sometimes several weeks late.
If I ever get fired or whatever I'm going back into security. Office jobs are okay and all but security was way better by every metric except salary, which I only care about so far as it enables me to live in peace and undisturbed

I'm nearing the one year anniversary of getting my remote customer service job. I have never held a job for this long. I think this is as tolerable as it gets for someone who doesn't fit into society but doesn't have parents who allow him to leech off them. If I'd ever get laid off, I'm kind of fucked because I'm too used to this now to ever go back to working on-location. That and other than just telling people our terms of service, I don't really do any real work. It's crazy to think I went from doing non-stop heavy physical labour in a warehouse to this.
Despite my work revolving around talking, I really don't have the voice or personality for it. I have a very low-T soft voice and especially at the end of the day, my mouth will be all tired and I'll struggle getting my words out.

The 8-5 schedule, dress code, normie coworkers, and high pressure environment makes it feel like hell on earth. It feels like I am in high school again. Normies on reddit talk about it like it is the best thing ever and how you are able to just sit around all day. I regret even applying for this job in the first place.

>>298940>8-5 schedule, dress code, normie coworkers, and high pressure environmentHow is this any different from manual wageslave jobs though? Back in the warehouse I worked for, people were always gossiping about each other and you couldn't stand still for a second. At least in an office, your body doesn't hurt at the end of the day.

supermarket worker here. there are daily incidents and they've moved me right next to the checkout/cashier lanes where is where 95% of incidents happen. You know they have a "code red" buzzer that they call out when something happens like a shoplifter getting physical and they expect all male staff to run to the front of the store to try intimidate the culprit. I always ignore it and keep working but we have some super workers who sprint through the isles once the code is called lol.

>>298759This Anon here, I quit after literally 2 days because it was dirty as fuck and paid $25 an hour instead of 30, I'd also risk getting tinnitus and I'm not willing to risk that at 22 years old for $25 an hour mon-fri 10+ hours a day, (and occasional weekends) I'd do it if I was 19 still or past 25, but I'm gonna keep trying to get a decent job before I just waste my life at a dead end job; you can call me a pussy for quitting, I don't care. What the fuck am I gonna spend my money on? a house? a nice car? It's not even 1k a week so I'd have sub 100k (aus-monopolybux) savings after working there for years and now I'd have tinnitus and respiratory problems.
Boomers can complain about us young people all they want - I'm not giving my health and the majority of my free time for meme money that will be wallpaper in 5-20 years. Fuck them and fuck this meme society that's turned one of the most fortunate countries in the world into a glorified casino/real estate auction.
Also fuck that bitch Mel for being a cunt and forcing me to work there and lying to my face about the work hours, pay and the job description, fucking jew cunt works in a air conditioned office doing meme "work" for decent money the total fucking hypocrite.

It's heartbreaking slowly watching the price of food double/triple in less than a decade but theres also more than that
Everyone is a reclusive dick, there's nothing to do outside on your own, every morsel of land is owned by some boomer propertyfag so I can never explore in peace
I cannot stress enough how little there is to do outside, even when I'm hanging out with friends it still feels like we're the only people in this damn country, its so lonely having 0 sense of community. Whats even the point of wageslaving at fucking KFC? I only do it so I can afford some food and so I dont feel like an unemployed loser since a shitty job when you're young is "just what you do" but holy fuck does it all feel so pointless
My parents have had a rich teenagehood, there was always some shit going on back then so what the fuck happened? Where was the life I was promised?
It's actually so unfair, how come I get to be in this grey area of not being bluepilled enough to thrive in the corpse society but not schizo enough to fuck off into whatever little woods we have left
I unironically wish I lived in America, the people there seem a BIT more actually fucking alive, milk doesnt cost 6.50$ yet and there's actually land left to explore that isnt just dirt road dirt road tiny pond that someone owns dirt road
I envy Millennials for experiencing the sliver of time where life (pre 2007) was somewhat hopeful and sustainable

>>298994>One of the many horrors of the modern age is that our various efforts and sacrifices throughout life ultimately amount to nothing at all.How is that a "modern problem"?
Vanitas vanitatum et omnia vanitas - the saying goes back 2000 years.
Nothing you ultimately work towards or build will last the grind of time. Even the great pyramids will disintegrate into dust. Your body will die within 100 years. Your achievements will be forgotten. Your life will be forgotten.
There isn't really anything you can do to cope with this fact except attempt to enjoy the present moment as much as you can with the resources you have.

>>299271You're right, I hadn't really considered that this type of futility has always been a thing. I guess it's just more noticeable in the modern age. Peoples in ancient times could at least hold the notion that the things they create would last for generations, and as we see today they were often times correct. In this day and age, very little of what anyone does seems to have a profound or lasting impact, especially on an individual level. People of the past built monuments, crafted art, and wrote literature that are still discussed and venerated to this day. Now, a person can work themselves tirelessly for decades crafting their life's magnum opus, only to have it become old news within a year or so, and that's if their work isn't ignored completely.
Of course ultimately my post was just me lamenting the fact that wageslavery is an dreadful slog with no truly worthwhile rewards, but I guess I should have expressed that in a more concise way.
>>299273Very true. I only hold a job when absolutely I need to, and try to return to the NEET-life as often as possible.

>>299321nta but webdev, though increasingly, programming jobs in general, are a red ocean market. ever since the 2010s dotcom bubble every normie thinks they can learn some JS and make bank. even the more technically involved programming fields are being flooded with silicon valley wannabes or just straight up outsourced to cheaper markets like you said. I regret majoring in this shit.

Getting treated like a bitch at burger king feels almost too tragic to post about. I really can't put it into words how much I hate my job and the retards I work with. I get abused and given the worst positions and I get paid like piss. They don't allow us to have our phones on us or use them either. (I do it anyway) I tried to look for other work but there's nothing and I fail a background check.

>>299352I was eating my burger at McDonalds recently and heard the jeet manager there giving a job interview to some teenage succubus and man it sounded insufferable. He sounded like he was high on some sort of upper, because he was just blabbering blabbering blabbering. I got a headache just listening to it from a few tables down, I couldn't imagine actually working there.
