See, this is the problem with young bloods. They expect stuff to change on its own, like they're entitled to it. Change only comes about with mobilization, talk to your elected representatives to make cost of living affordable again. Zoomers are somehow less resourceful than millennials.

It's satire.

I have one of these nondescript email jobs and I'm much happier on the days where I have a steady flow of work and variety of tasks. Time goes much faster. I still like to procrastinate a little in between tasks but overall it's much better than having literally nothing to do for 4 hours straight.

Can you not just surf the internet, or watch a movie or pull out a switch, or read a book or something?

If you have managers constantly walking around so you have to "look" productive then yeah that sucks. People that whine that they want to stay busy when they could just relax with free reign are fucking lobotomized wage slaves. Or people that could afford to go part time but say "aw man, I'd get bored at home!" fucking born to be a mindless worker ant

Not really, if you're actually working in software development.
You can't force creative work. My best ideas usually come at night on the shitter.
Hate this arbitrary factory-style 8 hour assfuck.
t. 100% WFH and did around 5-6 hours of real work this week

>>213923045
You're still psychologically on the hook for the whole 8 hours, even if there is no tracking software.
I play vidya, read books and do personal projects when there's nothing to do, but there's still some nagging feeling.

>>213923045
Not exactly somebody looking over my shoulder but it's not comfortable enough that I can just tune out for an hour and watch a movie either. My last job was kind of like that with nobody watching and nothing much to do a lot of days and I would just watch shows and play games and it wasn't that great, I felt stagnant and useless after a while. Unless you have some constructive project of your own you can work on during work hours I think you just get bored no matter how free you are to access entertainment on the clock. It's a balance I guess. Being smashed with work and stressed all day obviously sucks but feeling like you have had literally no impact on anything day-in and day-out sucks too. You can call it brainwashed wagieism but mentally were humans really built to do literally nothing productive all day every day?

>>213921614 (OP)
>imagine showing up at work to begin with

>>213923256
Yeah that sucks.
I work nights with one other person, and we will just take random hour long breaks and I'll play video games. Or we'll watch a movie together when something good releases.

It's literally my current job.

He was only able to admit that after being hypnotized to not give a shit. The rest of his day was eating shit from his eight bosses and it was driving him crazy. He was also about to be fired for the incompetence of his eight bosses by efficiency consultants they hired to tell them how to not waste money. There’s an additional angle about how his job was to manually patch code for y2k compliance in 1999, which meant that job was either almost over or catastrophic failure as about to ensue, which he was also unable to give a shit about anymore, due to the hypnotherapy.

Also fun fact: in 98 and 99 there was massive over-hiring in tech to patch y2k. The companies told these new employees they were getting permanent employment, but once the patching was done laid them off, no severance package, because of “efficiency.”

Not me, I’m retired

i know this is crazy to most people especially here, but some people want to do jobs where they actually feel like they have a purpose and are doing something to positively contribute to society where you can actually see the physical benefit of your work, even if it means working in more difficult conditions

i.e. not working a fake bullshit gay faggot ass software development tech job working from home doing nothing useful at all like this faggot >>213923238

>>213921657
spending 1/6 of the day in traffic every day (including weekends and holidays for no good reason considering there isn't enough actual work each week to fill even a single workday), to live a subsistence based existence in your shitty 1 room apartment where you can hear your neighbors beating off and beating each other fucking rocks.
We should all grovel and be thankful for the ability to transfer wealth from our billionaire bosses to our millionaire landlords.

>>213923889
It's basically what you're saying. We've seen with the covid scenario that we only need a fraction of the population's labor to keep society running. So, not only is full employment hard to achieve, it's actually inefficient. All these extra moving bodies just kinda get in the way. So we want them out of the way (not working) because their labor isnt needed, but we need them to keep consuming products so businesses can have revenue, and at the macro level keep the economy afloat. The solution to this conundrum of efficiency and consumer spending is to subsidize the population's income.

Once AI really kicks into gear and corpos lay everybody off, people lose income and spending power goes down, then profits go down. Then, the economy corcles the drain until UBI can bail us all out.

>>213924131
>We've seen with the covid scenario that we only need a fraction of the population's labor to keep society running.

yeah, and even funnier is that the fraction we need to keep society running are actually the blue collar and frequently lower paid members of the population, whereas the higher paid people working in worthless faggot white collar industries who all work from home are the completely useless ones.

>>213924120
You forgot the punchline my friend: the whole thing is predicated on the consumption of tens, maybe hundreds of millions of years of concentrated sunshine for people to even be able to be stuck in traffic for years of their lives in the first place. Winning!

Intelligent people get rewarded and dumb as bricks drug addicts eat shit. Simple.

Nowadays not so true since the influx of Indians basically stole most of the white collar middle class jobs and now they've entering dangerous jobs like trucking that's endangering average citizens.

I'm sure this thread is full of them, but I honestly don't understand how all these tech workers can actually be happy with their jobs. Sitting there frequently working from home but doing nothing to benefit society. And those who work for the "FAANG" companies, all of whom are cancerous poisons to society as a whole with asshole faggots running things and destroying peoples' lives and the planet while they do it, companies and industries based on advertising to people, making them consume endless bullshit they don't need.

Yeah, let me guess, you're happy because you make so much money, that you then use to continue propagating the endless consumerist economy, not giving a shit about the negative effect you have on society around you.

>>213924246
is there any wonder why le fascisme appeals to the masses then?

>>213924267
i think it would be fair if they got paid roughly the same. people would still want to get office jobs because they are easier on the body.
blue collar only really pays less because we let in a bunch of immigrant workers and offshored which hurt salaries.

>>213924267
manual labor is filled with retards because it’s payed peanuts, not other way around. also you sound like a fag

>>213923959
I didn't say "you can do whatever you want with no repercussions". My point is you CAN live a lifestyle where you consume significantly less than you currently do, with a few years of preparation and effort. But you won't.

>>213924372
It's paid less because the people who stick around doing manual labor for money are dumb as shit and get exploited easy.

Most of these guys take pride on doing a "manly" job of working 12 hours a day and getting paid peanuts whilst their boss is thinking about his 4th property

>>213924186
I think it will shift a bit as white collar jobs become increasingly obsolete

>>213924737
I know this is going to cause you to bust a blood vessel because it requires you to think outside the abstractions you've believed all your life, but inflation isn't real, only price gouging. Money is actually infinite because every bank lends out more money than they actually have. The debts we all owe are a farce. Market valuations are fairy dust. The economy is fictional.

Our way of life is a lie. There is no scarcity of food, or water, or housing. Theyve just been artificially commodified, paywalled.

its not a psyop. logistics workers, sanitation workers, etc are essential. if every garbage man quit for 2 weeks, there'd be mountains of shit in every single city in the country. if all the rail workers quit, the entire country would collapse in a matter of weeks when the grocery stores were empty.

>>213924877
its really mind blowing how nearly the entire white collar industry is made up of people who dont matter, their jobs are literally meaningless to the point they go to the office and barely work or work from home barely working and no one notices or cares, but the low paid schlubs who actually probably matter the most in society get told that they dont matter.

during covid, i dont think its a hyperbole to say that almost the entire society collapsed because grocery stores, the employment that people have always said is for moronic retards, were short staffed and not getting essential items stocked. and this would be nearly the same with the other negatively viewed jobs like janitors, delivery people, construction, trades people. etc. that society would fall apart without them. whereas these faggot white collar workers could just stop going to work and "work from home" and literally no one would notice or care if they vaporized overnight.

>>213925018
what type of engineer though anon? engineers are usually very important, but only certain types

>>213924951
No there isn't. Farmers actively burn and destroy food in order to commodify their harvests and raise the market price. Private equity firms buy up whole neighborhoods and let over valued homes sit empty and unused. Car dealerships double their prices and their lots remain at capacity, filled with 3 year old vehicles rusting, unused.

>talk to your elected representatives
This but with bullets. No, not in minecraft, in real life.

>>213925019
well i was only talking about money itself, the method of exchange. But what you are saying is true. Thats what is necessry to abandon the money concept is calculating how much essential production can be provided by labor on any given day.

>>213925086
I think it’s useful to break it into tiers or sectors: primary tier is production, mining, food production, second tier is manufacturing, food processing, that sort of thing, third tier and above is pretty much useless for anything practical but may add value in the longer term through research and development. Unfortunately this tier also includes the FIRE industries, financial, insurance and real estate which indeed not only add nothing of value actually subtract value because of their bullshit. Government sits on top burning money because they want inflation. It all works until it doesn’t.

>>213925213
Price it in gold. The answer may surprise you.

>>213925077
Strawman argument, i never said that. I'm saying that the other anon argued we need to downgrade our lives, but even the cheapest housing has already been spoken for and price gouged up the ass. Basically, nobody in Gen Z is going to be able to afford a house. The market has to collapse and banks will have to yet again come crawling back to daddy government once they go bankrupt

>>213925214
Yeah, third tier should basically include the entire "white collar" industry.

>>213924922
You’re just describing end-stage capitalism, where scarcity is manufactured to justify the continued existence of capitalist entities.

>end stage capitalism
This is an imaginary concept, and capitalism is merely reinventing itself, as it will always do.

>>213924922
You're not really accounting for the effect of salary upgrades on prices, if you make a profit some of it should go towards improving workers' conditions and that has cost repercussions on the consumer end, an endless cycle in theory.
The debts we all owe are not a farse, the lending of money, so credit, has a real, unrealized cost to the lender, that of opportunity, that interest accounts for. Market variations are also based on expectations which are tied with credit avaliability and, again, cost of opportunity, very real and tangible factors.
There absolutely is scarcity of some things, especially in a culture of entitlement. Artificial scarcity is real but not universal.

End-stage capitalism is explicitly defined as manufacturing scarcity to justify the continued existence of capitalistic entities. It’s called end-stage because it isn’t sustainable, as the artificial scarcity can only be maintained by steadily increasing debt.

I work in a kitchen at a bar because in my state you have to serve food in order to serve alcohol. But nobody is ever getting food during my shift (6-230am).

This is how office jobs are. The amount of work you have at any given time is very inconsistent. But you're expected to appear busy at all times for 9 hours a day. That's where the "staring at my desk, but it looks like I'm working" comes in. The boredom really sucks. But it's still better than the alternatives.

>>213926025
absolutely 100%. and it doesnt help when the richer people doing the more meaningless work act like doing basic things that the poorer people have to do is basically akin to slave labor

>ahhh what the fuck do you mean i have to go into the office to sit on my ass for 8 hours staring at a screen in the air conditioning pretending to work to get my undeserved high salary? i can do this at home! making me go somewhere to work is literally like asking me to do sweatshop labor! only complete retards would actually waste time commuting!

never mind the fact that poorer people are always going to work sites to do their harder work, and have to sit here and get told that even just getting to your job in the morning and going home at night makes you even more pathetic and worthless. and the white collar faggots have been doing this for 5 years.

>>213926096
They're not as abstract as you think. They're very real in that they're behaviors that we can observe, with real consequences interlinked in a complex mesh that the average person doesn't bother grasping. I don't get this recent "economy/money is fake" narrative being parroted, just because you only see the tip of the iceberg in the form of numbers on some screen doesn't mean that there aren't very tangible events going on behind them. Currency itself is materialized trust whose job is allowing for the convenience of not having to exchange in kind, it's not fake nor will it ever be, its purpose is very real and practical.

>>213926266
>But it's still better than the alternatives.
whats the alternatives? you mean doing a job that you can actually be proud of for accomplishing something relevant, unlike office work? becuase you might have to actually, i dunno, work for a living?

>>213926366
This "complex mesh" is just a smokescreen for corruption. If the guy running the Fed cant explain what a derivative is and how it functions, this society is fucking cooked

>>213926386
Work doesn't have to be fulfilling. It helps if it does, but people look at jobs too often as a deathcope mechanism.

>this thread discussion
Exactly why I plan to hopefully kill myself sometime this decade (currently 32). I can't imagine playing the charade for another 30-35 years with fake jobs propping up fake industries and fake economies, to buy meaningless stupid shit, just for the hope that when you get old as shit, you get 10 years, maybe 15, 20 if youre lucky, before you become an invalid and die on a bed in a hospital. and no, the joy of having a family to stay alive for isnt in the cards for me because i post on 4chan after all. so basically the only future i have to look forward to would be one based on endless consumerism and "keeping up with the joneses"

>>213926000
Nice trips. None of this was ever sustainable, yet it keeps going, and will find something by which to sustain itself. Perhaps with a global population of 1 Bn humans, perhaps with lunar colonies, etc. End Stage is a marketing term which suggests something that will come after it, usually some kind of Marxist genocide.

>>213926386

But's that's still a real behavior and its consequences are palpable. But know that I'm not seeking to admonish or talk down on anyone I'm replying directly to or not, I'm just hoping that someone more tangled up in the whole "current economy is an abstract farse" reads this so they can see that it's more nuanced than that, it's not some big sham at its core and its reckless abolishment would probably do more bad than good. It's necessary to root out the filth that unfortunately has become too decentralized and tenacious in not letting go, and I'm not sure how that can be accomplished.

International investment funds broke the social contract.

>muh conspiracy
no, it is very simply the type of person to have billions of dollars is the type of person to never be satisfied. they just want more for the sake of having more. the middle class doesn't exist btw, either you sell your labor for a wage or you collect profits off of ownership of capital

Gen X here. Can confirm being broke while lining up bitches who beg for my seed. Shit's pretty cash.

>>213927131
they're just making up numbers now, like the communists

I have it currently. We have 50% home office so I save up all the work for days I have to be in the office (I still run out of things to do in like three days). It's a highly automated accounting job. The pay is way too good for the amount of work I do, too. And yeah during my HO I play videogames / cook / do laundry / whatever the fuck too.

>>213923256
yeah based, a slow day to catch up on less important shit/set up for upcoming projects and maybe screw around a bit can be good once in a while but hitting the point of having to grind out days 15 minutes at a time is suicide fuel

>>213927131
Yeah, it's just the Working Class and the Owning Class. The leeches want to divide us and make us squabble among ourselves while they collect a paycheck for doing nothing.

>>213927131
Man I love collecting profits off the capital I own so much, bros

>>213927201
so.. what exactly are you counting for a living?

A monkey could do my job. I'm not kidding, punching numbers into the screen and hitting enter then copying an email is something I believe even Harambe could've done.

Pushover generation. The elites are laughing their asses off.

I do reconciliations of accounts, which even though it's fully automated, needs to be reviewed by human beings because of how accounting policy is set. Am I going to be replaced by a Jeet one day? Maybe

>>213927590
what happens if the accounts are irreconcilable?

Have you not watched Fight Club in a very long time or are you just lying for (You)s now?

What is the millenial equivalent of the AH I'M GOING FUCKING INSANE movie that zoomGODs are going to laugh at in ten years? My vote is pic related.

It’s only been about 15 years, and it’s not working anymore

Same anon and i agree with you in a way but now we're falling down a deeper rabbit hole here. In that how do we deal with the bad actors, with the problem of evil? Many bad actors are sociopaths, people born with no regard for others. What causes sociopathy/psychopathy and why does it keep manifesting in people?
