Do "people" that wage away at office jobs their entire lives have a soul? Are they even human?

[Anonymous No.55884258]

No, they've sold their souls to the capitalist devil in order to afford more bullshit trinkets from Target and Home Goods. The execs are even worse. One VP was complaining about how it costs him $20k a summer to put his kid in summer camp, get transportation, weekend care, etc, all so he can spend more time working instead of actually spending time with his family.
Every single VP or executive or c suite I've met has similar stories.

Yes, we have souls. Our jobs are relatively easy for the amount of "work" we do. Keep seething, tradie hoy. I'm a proud Jewish man(cry more, polfaggots) who makes almost 300k working at an insurance company. My life is really great. I wouldn't trade places with a disgusting little tradie for anything in the world.

We just had our roof done and remodeled our kitchen I made sure to hire Mexican companies with all illegals working. They did amazing work.

It’s all office jobs that are like this yes
Worked at one before and it was just endless drama and pettiness and just an air of negativity in the air, wagies would talk about financing their next big tv or other such dumb bullshit

People really underestimate how much people in big corps can make. I'm making over $100k in a bullshit job. If I got focused and went for a grad degree, I can move up into a different position and probably make closer to $200k.

Folks,

I know I am seeing a lot of back-and-forth on this topic, but I really need to push back and raise some red flags here. Having an on-site office presence is foundational to our ability to drive efficiencies in a corporate landscape. It is in our DNA. Sure, there is no 'one size fits all' or silver bullet and some are just boilerplate solutions, leveraged to the hilt and really only keeping us at a 30,000-foot-view of things. Being on-site, however, really allow us to get better granularity, find better directional-indicators, or loop back and dive deep into some critical issues on a go-forward basis.

I think if you all start spending more time in the office again, you'll find yourself trending toward the positive, but you'll have to keep an eye on the puck. Gut through it, reduce thrash, and let's stay in lock-step on this. Yes, we will synergize!

What's the root cause of the hatred of Corporate office spaces? I'll put my layman's hat on and guess that it comes from movies such as Office Space and Dilbert cartoons. But we all know that these are fictional spaces, and real office spaces allow us to touch base in a much more efficient manner.

I have to time-box this comment, as I have a hard-stop in a moment when I will have to jump onto a call. So, just one more point that I want to cover-off on: let's socialize the idea of having more office presence and loop back to see whether we're being more impactful. From a management standpoint, I think that we can get the traction to do it.

So, net/net, ignore the naysayers, sidebar the folks that are stuck in the weeds, and don't waste cycles or bandwidth on folks that don't align strongly with this mission. Try it out, and we'll have another touch point in a little while to see if we've moved the needle. Remember, our north star hasn't changed. We're still championing our core values remotely and we will only do it better in person.

If you need me, I will be online again in a bit.

Execs are absolue shells of human beings who traded away any personality decades ago to become a smoothed corporate cog. They cope with their poor life choices by saying they are 'providing a great life for their kids', as if their kids give a shit about having a nice landscapped yard or going to a private school instead of a good public one.

Above does NOT apply to well paid professionals like entreprenuers, doctors, etc. They are committed to their craft but still have an actual personality. It's the exec whose been HRified that truly is a lost soul

I honestly believe there are a percentage of people that do basically need to cage
A.) Because they have no drive or ability to actually fend for themselves
B.) They have no real life outside of that and goyflix

A prime indicator is stuff like them having no real interest in music, going for a walk etc

Walks are awesome. Do some more walking anons.

People that invest a ton of money into a career are now dependant on it to help pay back their student loans. They basically go all-in on their careers and only on the back-end of their working lives can they hope to actually see the full extent of their earning potential. However most will demand their middle-class lifestyle and piss their money away on a house and cars.
You really can't blame them because once you sign on the dotted line the amount of money you need to repay is suffocating and 95% of the people have no other solutions than to wage away.
I am fortunate enough to be a low tier office wagie however I have no debt so I can walk away if I really need to.

Recently I've been seeing people I used to work with while out and about. And some of them have been working for the same company doing the same shit when I left that company 10 years ago or 20 years ago, and when I talk to them all I can think is, "man, all that time I was doing this or that, this person has been at that old place I used to work at doing the same boring shit" it's rope inviting.

Hey bissy, just wanna say I've triaged most of the complaints via Google forms survey and most of them are hallow complaints with little to no valid argument to back them up. I think if we keep pushing, we will weed out the naysayers and keep the A+ people without a shadow of doubt. Let's link up for coffee after my 3pm and we can discuss some ways we can incorporate more game time into our weekly meetings to managers can actually engage with the individual contributors while relaying key points about our strategy and implementation.

Retards think life is a straight line. It isn’t. It’s a zigzag between extremes. You don’t want to work, but you have to buy food and shelter and dick lotion. Life waffles between those things. It sucks being hungry. It also sucks working all the time. That’s why the happy medium exists called rope.
