How do you find the time to play videogames as a wageslave?

When I was wageslaving last year I worked 4 days on and 4 days off.

>>714824503 (OP)
easy
play them in your head

>>714824623
How do i get a job like that

>>714824503 (OP)
only NEETs play vidya
wageslavers smoke crack

>>714825072
probably by searching for job like that and then applying for it

>>714824503 (OP)
I "work" remotely

>>714824503 (OP)
I neglect family, friends, and other means of escaping the rat race

>>714824503 (OP)
Like >>714824623 said, get a job with a schedule that works for you. I work four days a week with each shift being ten hours without taking lunch or breaks so I break even at 40 hours. Three days off with vidya to decompress and lift. It's ideal and I have no idea how people deal with working five days a week

>>714825917
>and I have no idea how people deal with working five days a week
This, having a 4 day work week is amazing

>>714825917
And how do I find that? Therr are barely any jobs like that and I fail all the interviews because of lack of social skills

live in country with good workers rights. i get paid well and work 5 days a week followed by 7 days off. i work nightshift and work alone most of the time so i often have time and opportunity to game on my laptop at work. get paid well too and its a pretty regular job.
tldr; get the fuck out of muttmerica and move to a good scandinavian country and youll be good.

Probably by going home after you clock out and playing before you go to sleep. If you're too tired just go to sleep and wait until the next day. I worked 1-9:30 at Sam's Club for 5 years. I lived through preloading RDR2, Far Cry 5 and Spiderman. You'll live.

>>714826049
I do 3 days a week. It's more than enough really

>>714826069
apply to be a firefighter, they work 1 week out of the month

>>714826293
i meant to say i work 4 days a week* its schedule work and it works fantastically for me

short commute, 15 minutes 1 way

I work remotely as a programmer so I only actually do about 2-4 hours of actual work per day

>>714826474
it's also 24 hour shifts at least here, but i imagine most of is just chilling lifting weights and playing chess with homies

>>714826746
Especially if you're an Airfield Rescue Fire Fighter, ARFF dudes just drive around the airport

>>714826069
Manual labor either at warehouses, entry level construction, or at hardware stores like Home Depot or Lowes will literally take any available body that can at least lift 40lbs. They don't care if they can have a better discussion with a gold fish, if you can at least do your job then you're in. There's a serious lack of workers right now and that gives you leverage negotiate hours. Start off part time, prove your worth by being dependable, and further down the line adjust to full time with 40 hours accordingly on a schedule that suits you like four days a week at more hours per day. If you can't communicate well, then do so through your work and you'll be accommodated accordingly when you do make awkward requests. It worked for me and after the district manager visited and saw the work I was putting in, approved my request to the store owner I put in that week once he left

>>714824503 (OP)
you dont

worked as an RN, 3-12hr shifts is minimum for full time and you get 4 days off. Work is soul crushing tho

>>714826474
Depending on where you live, getting a job as a firefighter can be a lot of work. Some places requires you to have higher education + take a written and an aptitude test.

>>714824503 (OP)
Easy
8 hours wagin'
1 hour commutin'
10 hours vidya
5 hours sleepin'

>>714826931
damn. i am also an RN. im the anon here >>714826293
i work night shift at nursing home and the shifts are mostly chill. i work 4 days on, 7 days off. it leaves you extremely tired at the end, but you quickly recover and have several days off to do whatever the fuck you want. im assuming its different and more stressful in the US though, if thats where you're from.

>>714826862
probably, not trying to downplay the job. it's long shifts but i imagine lots of downtime just be on call. when shit gets real then it gets.

>>714824503 (OP)
You don't work literally all day, only 8 hours tops. The rest are for vidya, gym and sleep

Play shorter games. Start picking up games that are designed to be beaten in a single sitting. Even if you invest 15~30 minutes and don't beat the game you'll still feel fulfilled in getting your fill of the game. Not only that you'll slowly learn the game and get further over time. Video games don't have to be 4 hour investments that always prod you along to keep playing every day. They can be short bursts of action that have a defined ending with a game over from loss of lives or getting to the credits.

Amazing advice

>>714824503 (OP)
>get home
>eat
>play video games
Like that. I just finished eating and doing dishes, now I have like 4 hours before bed so I'll play games with my friends, play something on my own, read, and maybe watch a movie before bed.

>>714827858
>and maybe watch a movie before bed.
I just watched The Apostle, pretty good

>>714824503 (OP)
I get home and play for 4-5 hours a night.
That being said, I live like 5 minutes from work so I get home really early.

>>714828361
I'm going to watch the animated Resident Evil movies. Since they're canon and I'm going through the whole series, I'm actually curious.

>>714828545
Infinite Darkness isn't good, but the rest of the movies are fucking amazing action kino

>>714828492
My commute is a thirteen minute walk, which is so nice and relaxing being able to oversleep and not worry at all. Those with like hour long train or driving commutes deserve better

>>714828632
I look forward to the stupidity in all of them.

>>714829239
yeah i used to have an hour train ride - shit sucked but i still managed to get in like 3hrs of vidya

>>714825072
become a nurse or lpn and work 12 hour shifts

>>714824503 (OP)
I work remotely

>>714824503 (OP)
i just take it one step at a time

>>714830656
Based. I've been remote for 2 years now and it's a complete cheat code. Wake up 10 mins before clock-in, play vidya during lunch, alt-tab during meetings, and slam work out in focused bursts. If you're disciplined it's the ultimate gig for gaming time.

>>714833763
>>714830656
How to do this?

>>714833763
For me it's 6 years. I have to go in once a month which I do because of the agreement but nobody cares or checks.
>>714834000
I learned programming and became a software engineer. I did have to get very lucky though, and even most SEs are fucked over nowadays by return to office procedures.

>>714824503 (OP)
By just playing a few hours every other day. Bud I have 3 kids and wife and work 45 hours a week, how do you "not have time" for vidya?

What the hell are you doing all day

>>714827013
and you have too be good with cats. They aren't going to rescue themselves from trees.

>>714824503 (OP)
I quit my job at the Texas Roadhouse just this weekend actually.. My mother-in-law is a Haitian medicine woman and she showed me how to hex online casinos so that you can clear $10k a month

Stop being a wagecuck.
You have access to the internet and AI feeds you everything you need to know

>>714835840
He's probably cooming most of the time.

>>714824503 (OP)
By not wageslaving.

I just play a little

>>714825830
Too real anon

>>714826069
Amazon Flex.
Work a minimum of 5 hours and a max of 60 a week, you pick when those are.

>just got job at a hospital
>18 bucks an hour
>12 hour shifts
>work 4 days and then off 3 every week
>I'll have health insurance for the first time in close to 7 years

Feels fucking good man, I hated being a student teacher. I'll finally have time for vidya again.
