and holy fuck, is it easy. Im surrounded by boomers who barely know how to use computers, who are on huge wages. Anybody could be doing these jobs in half the time, but instead everybody takes forever to do anything. I usually get all my work done in a couple of hours, and just read or write scripts for the other 6 hours if nobody else needs help at all.

Yes I do work in gov, but its so insane that people are getting denied for this stuff. Its useless work, but we're somehow giving it to foreigners? All my friends in IT or other fields are dying to find jobs, and I was lucky I got this thanks to a friend of my mum.

Such a fucking retarded society

Picrel unrelated.

Similar to how I feel teaching English in Asia. They overvalue this way too much. I feel a grim admonition from the sense of Confucianism in the air that's reminding me that relying on circumstances outside of my own control and merit is like living in a house built on sand.

Your friends are unemployed because they flew too close to the sun and got to a point where their Boomer bosses don't understand what they do, therefore they're not needed.

Speaking as a deskjob-anon for 18 years, stay visible to your stupid coworkers. Help them with their stupid shit and ALWAYS LOOK BUSY

Yeah I'm definitely gonna fight to keep this useless job. I'm always doing what they want, but also not pestering and being annoying to them ( and I think its going well cause I've been told a few times im doing a really good job). Just wanna be a help to them without getting in their way. My friends however more have never gotten a real job. Its so hard to hear back from any job you apply for, I was applying for hundreds a month, and getting a good few interviews a month, but I never got them
