>>212851593 (OP)

>>212852523
Post a pic of your analog watch

>>212851593 (OP)
Literally had this happen to me at my last job within the first 3 months of working there
>one of my 4 supervisors comes by on Friday afternoon
>"Anon the work orders are piling up and the manufacturing floor is coming in on the weekends. You're going to have to come to bat and start coming in weekends too to push out buildpacks to the shop"
>Flat out tell him that's not happening
>"But anon, the shop needs buildpacks, they can't just come in and have nothing to build."
>Tell him I have a life outside of work and I'm not giving that up
>He completely drops the issue on the spot
>I am promoted to head of R&D shortly after
I think they ended up getting their offshore jeets to work weekends instead.

>>212852542
I don't have a watch

>>212852523
al meet me irl and tell me in words what time 15:00 is.

>>212852309
>he thinks this will last
nigga i got bad news 4 u son

>>212852575
It's funny because here (Germany) it is perfectly normal to say the equivalent of "fifteen o'clock"

>fuck you Lumbergh

>>212852309
This has been me pretty much for the last 7 months at my job.
Manager keeps telling me I'm doing good work and we're just waiting for the next big project to get pushed through so I just dick around until then.
Keep thinking I'm going to get fired, I don't know how you slackers get so comfy like this.

>>212852544
>head of R&D
nigga thinks capeslop companies are real

>>212852637
I'm not sure I understand your reference, is this from the ironman movie or something?

>>212852601
That's honestly fucking disgusting, I coincide and pray for the downfall of your country faster than what is already happening for saying 15 o'clock.
Good day,

>>212852673
real companies don't have R&D departments you just randomly get promoted to be head of
everyone can see your LARP for what it was, I just thought I'd be nice enough to tell you that it was obvious

>>212852626
Just don’t think about it.

>>212852309
I miss working from home.
there are days when I had ZERO work, I kept my company phone on me while I worked on my yard and ran errands all day.
that week between xmas and new years, i literally take a vacation without taking any days off and go visit friend and family, as long as i keep my laptop on me, im golden. ive taken like 2 calls last year while at an airport lobby and the 2nd one while taking a shit.

>>212852695
We still say 3 o'clock for 15:00, it's pretty much interchangable. But that's fair, have a nice praying session

>>212852708
You can bullshit in the office as well, as long as they have dedicated meeting rooms or "focus spaces". Bring in your own laptop and spend a bunch of time in those spaces. It'll seem like you're working because you're on a laptop but you can shitpost on the chinz or play vidya. Put on a headset if you want to make it even more convincing.

>>212851593 (OP)
Genesis 2:2-3 KJV
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

Leviticus 23:3 KJV
Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of theLordin all your dwellings.

lmao enjoy getting arrested

>>212852697
I guess technically I meant to say that I got appointed to run the New Product Development department. Which was just a handful of engineers working on next generation products that hadn't reached production stage. I said R&D so that I didn't have to get into it.

it's so many fucking hoops to jump through, then there is the background check and having to take a drug test if you get the offer of employment

>>212852784
Alright, see you tomorrow anon, God bless!

>>212852832
>>212852416
Do accountants also have to do unpaid work masquerading as interviews like software engineers do? For devs, it's "hey write us this module to show you can do it", I guess the equivalent would be "yo dude balance these accounts for me for free"

>>212852872
kek
welder here, I've been at interviews they want you to spot weld to prove you know how, I just left

>>212852774
>>212852808
yeah you cant to do shit in the office. most conference rooms need to be scheduled in Outlook, there are very little space for privacy, you absolutely cannot browse the internet on your work machine, or on the guest network. its all monitored and the networking neckbeard will flag you immediately. having a neck cramp looking at your smartphone is bad.
i needed to come onsite once a week and it was hell. i tried to look busy as much as i could, thankfully i had chatty coworkers that to kill time with.
but as soon as they all went home at 430, even though i had to be there till 6, i took off right after them and drove home to finish off my day there. there were a few times that i had to pull over and jump into a meeting, or help a vip out.

>>212852944
But how would they know you weren't just puffing your chest about welding abilities in the interview?
You understand that there's a crapton of paperwork that needs to happen when they hire someone right? Then if it turns out you were a scam, there's even more paperwork to fire your ass.
But I agree, I refuse to work for companies that "test" me during an interview.

>>212853275
certificates

I started working car sales this week. This might be a total disaster or it might change my life.
It's interesting working with such extroverted normies that they horseshoe back to being psychopaths.

>>212853518
It's not a horseshoe, no normalnigger has true empathy
If you ask a normalnigger for advice on anything it will always just be "uuuh I did it this way bro"

>>212853379
Can be falsified though.
And certification doesn't guarantee you do good work.

>>212853549
Nor does asking somebody to spotweld in an interview. The only way to know is to look at the qualifications, references, and then try the candidate out

>>212853548
>muh troo empathy!
yeah unlike us bleeding heart 4channers right?

>>212852832
>Background test
>Drug test
Kek. Trump's America really is a prison for the poor isn't it.

>>212853576
you sound like a fag lol
no wonder you can't get get hired anywhere

>>212852309
Give me your contact information please
We need to have a discussion

>>212853623
I can't possibly imagine why you would think I'm the dude who complained about that, when there have clearly been 4-5 participants in this discussion
I'm simply telling you that it's impossible to perfectly judge a candidate. This has always been the case

>>212853623
No I'm with him. Doing "tests" are humiliation rituals and tell you ultimately nothing.
When you call someone in to an interview, you've already vetted them technically through their resume and verified their experience. All you're doing at that point is to see if they're consistent with what they said and if their personality jives enough with your team.
t. have been on both sides of the interview process

>>212851593 (OP)
I unironically am

>>212852416
Where do you live? If you are an autist or socially inept then you are probably fucked career wise no matter the qualifications or location.

My sister did business admin and got a job at Samsung as a sales manager after one internship. Goes to the office 2 days a week and the other 3 days are zoom calls. I also used to work with a guy who went to a shit uni with average grades but managed to get an accounting job at Goldman Sachs

>>212853642
You can check my calendar for availability
>t. has dummy meetings scheduled for most of the day with another colleague who also slacks off

I'm going to kill you tomorrow, and then kill your boss on Sunday.

>>212854443
ok but you still have to come in on Monday

>>212851593 (OP)
But Janny-kun, I'm unemployed

>>212854490
Good. On Monday, I will kill the CEO and then I will run the company into the ground on Tuesday and crash the ENTIRE ECONOMY bwahahahahahahhahah!

>>212852872
>yo dude balance these accounts for me for free"
No. But that's a pretty funny thing to imagine.

>>212854418
Based
Fuck HR and fuck managers

I love being in a union. No mandatory overtime, I can tell my foreman its not my problem. I haven't worked OT in over 12 years at my job and I do about 3 hours of work in my 12 hour shifts

>>212854618
>Union
That's communist shit

>>212854240
CA. It’s brutally hard right now to find an entire level accounting job. Been applying for a month now. I’ve only gotten rejections since they all want years of experience and I can’t exactly lie because I’d get caught immediately when I can’t do the things they expect me to do.

>complete every task assigned to me so management is happy
>still have time to nap during the workday if I feel like it
WFH is the only way to go

>it's a Peter daydreams about cutting off Lumbergs head and wearing it like a hat while walking around the office episode

>>212854649
Do some course in QuickBooks or SAP. Might give you a boost

>>212855611
I doubt that would make a difference. Most accounting firms just aren’t hiring in the summer. Come fall, I’ll have more opportunities. I can always move down to Sac worse comes to worst.

In the late 90s, the worst thing that boomers could conceive of was that they would be TOO successful and that they would get bored in their success. They were beyond clueless and had no idea what was coming down the pipe

>>212851593 (OP)
Am I getting overtime? Because this is a very simple situation, no overtime no work.

>>212851593 (OP)
You're lucky I'm coming in today

>>212851593 (OP)
I’ve been at work for the past 5 hours and haven’t done shit all day. I make $50/hr

>>212852309
>3 pm meeting on a Friday
who does that shit?

>>212855754
They weren’t clueless, they ARE evil, greedy, soulless cunts who don’t give a shit about their children or the future of America.

I am old and have decades of experience in recruitment and hr

My advice is to agree to overtime or weekend work enthusiastically so you don't seem like a sulky morale case problem child then just leave early after an hour. Say something came up, you feel sick, whatever bullshit you like.

Works great for work drinks and company social events too.

>I want…to not work on weekends

>>212852626
There are other jobs.

I've been a NEET for years and my time is starting to run out.

You know I charge 3x the hourly rate at out of hours, right? So you okay with paying me 240 an hour?

>>212851593 (OP)
Um....no? That's not how it works. See you on Monday

>>212852309
I quit my last job the moment they made me start going into the office.
