I was WFH for a while then I got laid off, which is extra annoying because I was actually doing work.

Now I'm just NEETing for a while because the thought of getting another job where I have to go into an office all the time makes me want to shoot myself in the face. Having to make small talk about the latest sportsball game, pretending like I'm actually happy to be there or else being told I have an attitude problem, listening to office ladies treat it like their extended fun-family and spending all day doing everything except actual work, smelling bargain bin pajeet coders stinking up the hallways with their reheated curry lunches and BO, doing 'mandatory fun' teambuilding exercises, wasting my life in traffic every morning and evening surrounded by roadraging retards who don't understand that tailgating and swerving in and out of lanes erratically isn't going to make the 500 cars in front of you magically disappear and open a pathway

Yes I do believe it's either another WFH for me or permanent neetdom, there is no other option

Normie life is unironically the best. Go to events with friends. Get invited to expensive dinners that are paid for. Meet lots of women, fuck them occasionally. See the world. Have prestige among my peers. No existential dread.

What's that? You make six-figures WFH? Huh, that's cool I guess. You're a level 85 on your 6th playthrough of Skyrim? Hoodie and sweatpants each day? Hmm, the girls I talk with like my button-downs and suits. Well at least you bought a house. That's nice. I'm going boating and BBQing this weekend with the guys. What are you up to? Nothing? Well maybe your Asian wife will watch the Mario movie with you. See you around.

WFH management is where it's at. I just delegate tasks all day while doing whatever I want. If I just put the bare minimum of effort in, maybe 8 hours a week, we hit our goals and renew our work orders.

The key to WFH is that you are actually amazing at your job and don't need 40 hours a week to do it.

It's a pretty blessed life but I have noticed some drawbacks. Social skills have degraded somewhat (95% of my daily interactions are with my wife), days pass by in what feels like seconds. Like you look at a clock one minute and it's barely 10, look at it again the next minute and it's half past 2. I think I'd probably prefer a hybrid schedule where I go in to the office 1-2 times a week. Clock would move slower.

I'm a WFH data scientist/"AI engineer" making $200k and this stuff comes in waves really.

Sometimes youre in full crunch mode not even having time to eat trying to ship something, and then sometimes youre just chilling delegating stuff to BE/FE devs

In any case i was a lead engineer, non AI, in a smaller startup previously and that was way more stressful because i was just doing everything. Nonstop deadlines where i had to do almost all of it myself.

So if youre doing remote either do UX to data science.
UX is most chill because its easy af and you don't have much work. But it also doesn't pay well. Data science is as described above, sometimes good sometimes bad. You also need to be actually talented for this, because management will crush you if your models don't actually, you know, work. But if they do, you're perceived as the smartest guy in the company and no one will fuck with you.

Would NOT recommend management. Those guys are sitting in meetings all fucking day and have to talk to braindead boomer clients. That shit is actually soul-destroying.

I open webex for our daily 15min standup meeting (camera off, of course). I'm on east coast but they're on west coast, so it's 12:30-12:45 PM for me. Can just sleep in however long I want.

And then LITERALLY fuck off for the rest of the day. Go do errands, gym, play vidya, whatever the fuck I want.

I moved out of California years ago and they're still paying me Cali money lol. $160k/year + benefits for doing almost fucking nothing. I'm the only one who knows the system and I can make everything sound extremely complex and time-consuming when really all I do is SSH in and restart Apache once in a while.

On top of that I WFH for another company in the crypto space for an extra ~$75/year, and got to the point where I barely do anything for them, either.

It is truly hilarious how much filthy money I rake in doing almost nothing. It can't last forever, I know that, but I have so much saved up now that I could coast for decades easily.

Some of the staff actually still work in an office. Goddamn, I am so glad I don't have to deal with that shit anymore.

I used to work to this very bad company that paid like shit but i built connections with people there. One of them got a really good job after more of a decade of wageslaving and set me up in my current company.

At first there was a lot of things to do(nothing complex just a lot of things) but since then my job consists of waiting for them to ask me new tools,fix bugs or extend current tools.

Thing is,since they use the same pipeline for everything, things are stable. Working from home help me hide the fact there is no reason to keep me fulltime anymore.

There is very little difference between you and a negress who wears overly large glasses with an AfriAm PhD who tells others to call her a doctor. You grew up a poor, low IQ subhuman and will always be one. You probably view the concept of working at your 80k trashy job as "conquering your environment" kekkkk. Keep sucking down those onions malt beers with the vegetable grease barbecue fatso, you are totally like Alaric sacking Rome. Or to use an example more familiar to you, Cortes conquering the brown goblin Oaxacan whom you are faced with every time you look into the mirror.

[Anonymous No.57760341]

I mean, yeah WFH can be pretty easy depending on the context.

I just got an IT job at a major insurance company and I'm not even monitored by my direct superior manager, I mostly talk with people from my squad at the daily meetings and the guy who assign tasks and mentors me is a senior analyst who takes the role of scrum master/product owner. But 95% of the time there's no pressure to deliver, so you go as you please and reports your progress saying whatever shit at the meetings. The HR, who has the power to fire you, has no idea how are you doing in the company and then it always stays pretty much the same.

The tide certainly changes if you are working for a small startup specialized in the IT area. Sure you still will have the standard WFH flexibility, but you will actually have to work since you are supposed to take an important role inside the company and even the CEO will be aware of your actions by constant monitoring through the days, plus all the people know what the work is about. It's not a pleasant experience, you feel that you are always urged to deliver and people will demand actual results all the time.

Now all of these advantages don't come with drawbacks. Your social life will be inexistent, you don't build a meaningful link with your coworkers (no matter how cool they are), you will have to hunt new people somehow to build your own social networks, it won't come naturally like school, university or workplace. You end your working week only to face an empty weekend with nothing meaningful to do, week after week. I am still struggling with this and it is visibly taking a toll on my mental health, some advice from fellow WFH /biz/raelis would be much appreciated.

Degrees don't really matter. I'm a yuro high school drop out and still made it to Silicon Valley. No one ever asked me about my degree in an interview. Ever. Never pretended i have one either.

It's all industry experience and, if lacking that, personal projects or made up experience.
People online will tell you to just grind leetcode and that might work for some of them, but i never did that. Both of my gigs i got due to having published stuff myself that was interesting and showed beyond doubt that i can get stuff done.

Before the lead eng gig i had published multiple apps by myself. Nothing successful or particularly interesting, but still, complete, published, feature-complete apps.

And for the data scientist gig i did a bunch of open source work that got lots of attention on Twitter and Hackernews etc. Obviously a chunk of luck involved there as well i'm not gonna pretend like that's an easily repeatable pattern. But you basically gotta build this image of "achievement" around yourself. No matter how exagerrated it actually is.

That has nothing to do with WFH and everything to do with your own life choices, though. I love weekends and they're almost all filled with fun things to do with friends (all made outside of work), my family, and my wife.

Best option is hybrid. 1-2 in office to network, socialize, etc and then wfh a majority of the week. You don’t even need to spend the whole day on those days.

The time you save from commuting is amazing. I’ve learned German, worked out & have been able to read books on my list in that time instead of sitting in my car for hours or bullshitting with others who won’t care if I quit tomorrow. I make time for my genuine friends and family and that’s what really matters in the end.

I don't know, I'm a guy who made most of the friends during school and university, and my first job was a WFH right away because of the pandemic. I have a feeling that the workplace would be a natural evolution from university. As I grew older and moved up with my life, I barely talk with people who I used to see everyday and now I have no idea what places I have to attend to meet new friends.

>>57760654
I guess it depends on the company, there are companies with a lot of young people like me (Im 24) and others, generally big and old companies (my case), have more people in their 30s and 40s who already built families. But I guess that one standard friday's happy hour with the coworkers happens in most companies no matter the age gap.

Hybrid is cuck tier. Wouldn’t ever choose to socialize with boomers, dress up, commute and put on a fake smile to whatever bullshit politically correct speak they come up with. At least in meetings for my company it’s almost all completely on topic, then I’m back to whatever I want to do.

Best option is fully remote while you frequent a hobby with other people 2-3 times a week. For me it’s tennis and I’ve gotten regular gfs from that alone.

I've been WFH since 2015 other than like 7 months in an office at one point.

Im an Adobe After Effects guy so i constantly have to put out actual animated videos.

Maybe you guys can help me here. I've been freelancing this whole time and this past year finally cleared six figs, 108k. My expenses are obviously higher since im self employed, but since I have multiple stable clients i can truly fuck off at any time and say I'm "booked" by someone else. I also take around 2 months total off each year. Thats' the big ticket item. But I do have to work on an hourly basis (yes I pad them) and if I'm not actively working on a project I'm not making money.

I see WFH jobs that I qualify for listed with salaries sometimes up to 150k+. I think, boy that would be cushy and I'd get paid even when they don't necessarily have something for me to be doing. BUT they all have limits on the days you can take off. Like two paid weeks a year then 10 holidays? the fuck is that? Idk if I can take unpaid time off.

I've been applying to them for fun and don't want to throw away something good. But it's not like a web based job which is largely maintenance. Design might be too productive. At least hourly I can just bill 3-4 hours for a 30min task.

Can anyone attest to a similar WFH salary position vs. freelance? I really like my fuck off time.

Nah, that's very far from what todays DSs actually do.
You're thinking of research roles, not applied AI.

I do some research-y stuff within the bounds of my projects as well, but modern AI is all about keeping up with the open source shizos on X, having an intuitive understanding of what kind of datasets work for what kind of models, and being able to train big models with only little initial data.
I'm almost exclusively training LLMs, 7b parameters and upwards. Training runs are expensive and time consuming, so you need to have a clear vision on what works and take into account papers from like 2 weeks ago.

Statistics are hardly relevant at all besides some shared evaluation metrics. The most sought after talent is all esoteric autists that try to build god.

Yeah, I was WFH fully March 2020-May 2022. It was great at first but then started to get very monotonous and every day just blended together. I had a lot of anxiety and dread when it was announced we'd have to do 2 days a week in the office, but it's a perfect balance. I met some cool dudes that started during the pandemic that I had never met. We all sit together and just bullshit all day. I always thought I didn't need social interaction as I'm a typical introvert, but it's pretty obvious how that social interaction basically benefits everyone. I don't have many friends(my best friend moved to another state) so it's nice talking to people other than my wife. We go out sometimes after work. Next week we are gonna do hot pot. Should be fun.

Most people don't though. Socialization has basically been destroyed. Even normies barely have friends these days(men mainly). Not even memeing if it wasn't for work I'd be able to legitimately go months without talking to anyone. This is the unfortunate reality for us zoomers

>Yep, office is hell. I have to show up twice a week, commute is 1h40m each way on average

Dude you gotta get a new job! Holy shit, no wonder you hate going in. My commute is 12 minutes with traffic. I go in at 7AM and leave at 3PM to avoid traffic. When I WFH I sleep til 8 and sign off at 4PM

Ah well most people have hour commutes. I wouldn't mind going to the office if I had a short commute. The only thing I hate about the office is not having my own bathroom like at home. I avoid coffee in the office cause I find shitting in a public bathroom disgusting. I hold it in until I get home. I don't understand how people sit on those nasty toilets shitting with someone in the stall next to them. Fucking gross. If I had a 12 minute commute I would go home at lunch to shit.

>The key to WFH is that you are actually amazing at your job and don't need 40 hours a week to do it.
this is the truth

I WFH for the last 4 years, have to go back in Monday; I maybe put 2 hours a day on average, some days it was nothing at all, other days I worked 60 hours weeks depending on the project

retarded C suite kikes think you can't waste just as much time as work

I would like to have some sort of hybridization but I am an industrial/mfg engineer so I kinda have to show up. In the right situation it isn't so bad:

>my coworkers are S++ based tier
>the work is interesting and challenging
>most weeks i fuckoff after 40 hours
>i dont work the entire time, maybe 6 out of 8 hours
>i learn a shitton about stuff

The only problem is that wfh is primarily coding only. I could do data stuff or programming, but I don't love it that much. I always saw coding as a means to achieve a result, never a primary job. I also hate the faggy ass coder culture, whereas real engineering still has good cultures. Are there hybrid manufacturing engineering jobs where I could wfh 1-3 days a week?

Nah, fuck that shit.

I'm never going back to playing dress up and commuting.

I'm also far more productive at home because I don't have constant interruptions.

Engineering is fine, the problem with industrial is the dumbasses on the assembly line (literal felons and drug addicts) and the mgr's who bitch when the line goes down for more than 1s during work hours. Also the unions can go fuck themselves.

im wfh for the government, i make 75k as a data analyst, im an 'asset' that is lent out to the unit when they need or want to conduct research. Fortunately, everyone is incredibly busy with other tasks and have little to no time with research so I have like only 1 or 2 projects going on where I write very basic data cleaning scripts in R. some days i literally will send only two teams messages, otherwise the laptop is closed.
I will hover around my room to be able to respond to emails or pings when they are sent. Otherwise they also gave me a work phone so I can take that and get teams messages and emails that way as well, allowing me to go to to the gym. Occasionally during the 3 years I've been doing this, I will actually need to do work for some projects that require implementing a more complicated statistical process like bootstrapping/randomization distributions of beta coeffecients in regression models, but those have been rare.
I'm young so while I appreciate the free time to actually be a gooning degenerate, I want to get promoted or internally job hop to earn more money so I can acquire more crypto. But I am afraid I have lost all of my work ethic and might lose my comfy leisure. my favorite coins or btc, eth, ltc, link, and RUNE. I also enjoy dating asian women and they seem to enjoy showing me off a "high status" white boy to their other female friends.

It comes and goes. If there's a big project push then your ass belongs to the company including weekends and god help you if you need to fly somewhere to monkey dance for a customer, but most of the time it's zero to two hours of actual work and then I go ride motorcycles or watch anime or go swimming in summer. Total Permanent Victory mode occurs when you get a job without daily standups so you can keep your own hours for even the limited work you're actually doing.

Did you really just brag about all of this nonsense? You are comparing yourself to literally the worst of the worst and taking pride it. The same way an Indian is proud to be a poop stained menace instead of a nigger.

>that picture
i started WFH a few months ago making 2x what ive made in the last 20 yrs. went to the office christmas party to make HR happy and ended up bullied into twerking jingle bells out of a tissue box tied to my ass in front of 100 roasties. never again.

cant complain, sleep half my day, offload menial tasks to outsourced contractors, send complex tasks to my seniors, people outside my department praise me for "my" productivity on the daily. don't do much besides send a dozen or two single-line emails each day lmao. shits so cash.
