Same man. Also where's my work from home general? Can someone open it? i keep getting banned for it

whos asking you.
you will comeback!

>>24323942
For 99% of WFH:
They will pull the contract card to get you back in, you are contracted to be in an office 9 to 5.
It would require signing a new and adjusted "Terms of employment" which employers won't do when it comes to February/March when things get back to normal.

Just enjoy it while it lasts.

>>24323942
I have been working from home since 2008. There was manage shakeup just before covid and a hard push to coming into office that was resisted to a high degree. I literally can barely conceive going back to a fucking office everday...the idea is so distant it seems like going to prison

>>24323953
1-2 at most

>>24324245
this will be a standard thing (at least for me) i will negotiating in every new job for the rest of my life

>>24324245
>Just enjoy it while it lasts.
if we have to go back im calling quits and go on benifits for a few months. fuckem.

>>24324245
The collective demoralization of everyone having to actually drive and get stuck in traffic two hours a day while having to re-look at their co-workers every day was worth my vote for Biden.

>>24323942
Employers are shifting to WFH because they realized it saves them huge amounts of money from not having to rent office space. Even after corona there will be few office jobs.

>>24324536
yeah it's pretty common. I work for a big telecom company and apparently the old corporate dickhead came in, regionalized it (so a bunch of people lost their jobs if they wouldn't move) and then forced everyone into the office. However, everyone still worked from home I guess outside of the major office. He's gone now though and we got new corporate leadership in the last few months and he seems to be much more supportive of the work from home thing. They were mobilizing to return everyone back to work soon covid be damned. He pumped the breaks on it. Future is bright, but I'm still probably gonna jump ship eventually since I'd rather work in an office and make more money than work from home and make no money. I just have a small apartment so it kind of sucks to spend every day stuck in my room.

>>24324245
>just enjoy it while it lasts

I genuinely thing office jobs are history bub

Also wanted to say, my neighbour is a multi millionaire with a hot wife massive house 2 kids and 2 dogs.
He said recently that he thinks 'office spaces' are going to become more like campuses in the coming years. I'd buy that considering my office block is a bit like that now

I’ve been working from home for 7 years, there’s no way I’m going back to a physical work place

>>24323942
i will be homeless before i "work" in an office 8-5 again. i would rather be a bum. i would rather fucking be a fucking bum.

>>24326184
stage 1 denial

>>24326042
that's kinda interesting, can you explain a bit what he meant by that? like people would only come in if they had a big meeting that day, or newbies would come in for a few weeks to get trained?

>>24326184

>>24326854
I have been “working” from home for about a year and a half now. Reading 4chan every day the entire time. I do not see myself being able to go back to a normal job.

>>24326332
no. i've already got a bum beard. i have a wife but i'll leave her if she doesn't understand. no kids. don't care about money or possessions. at least not above freedom. i will fucking be a hobo riding freight trains around the country, fuck you. fuck offices. and especially FUCK niggers and FUCK jannies.

>>24327087
I think you need a trade job my dude. I'm in tech, and I've decided that I will fix cars before I go back to the shitty office space again.

I prefer going to work at the office. I can use their heating/electricity/toilet paper and I do the same shit I do as working from home. (Nothing)

>>24327270
It's too late for me, not in tech but in another "white collar" job that I can do remote. But also in my late 30's. There's not changing careers at this point. Do or die. Remote or die.

>>24324245
I’m mostly afraid about a mandatory vaccine for continued employment. My office is closed through Q2 of next year. Was already at only 2/5 days a week at the office so hoping 100% isn’t a problem. Sucks for people who need to be there. Theoretically I and many others don’t but companies might expand it out of the idea of fairness.

>>24324245
if this happens i will follow home the head of HR and cut her eyelids off with a razor blade. i will then force her to watch me roast her family alive and eat them.

Who actually enjoys working from home? It sucks. You can't compartmentalize your work. Fuck having to work from home.

>>24327638
go back to r*ddit before something bad happens to you.

>>24324245
Very unlikely because of Vizcaino v. Microsoft

>>24324245
this is the new normal

>>24324245
>t. middle manager
Things are never "going back to normal", everyone with a modicum of actual power has made it obvious.
WFH makes you seethe but it makes CEOs rich.

>>24327638

Fuck you piece of shit

>>24327520
Well the good news is that it will be mandatory for doctors/healthcare professionals, and politicians first, so we'll get to see how nurses and stuff are reacting to it (if you think they won't be making instagram/snapchat/tiktoks en masse documenting their entire experience, you're delusional)

>>24323942
>being a wagecuck

I actually love working in the office. I hope to go in at least three days a week once this is all over. It's far better than getting calls on Teams all fucking day. I've also found people are a lot more polite in person than they are behind the keyboard. They can't blow you off as easily if you can just walk over to their cubicle/office.

I've been thinking about refusing to go back also. I was going to give them a resignation letter if they force us to come back and use it as my bargaining chip. I'm a good employee, but not really vital to the company so I've been thinking about different ways to increase power on my side and just walk out if they refuse. I can't handle going back to my wage cage 5 days a week with a 1:45 total commute.

>>24327638
low iq pleb detected

>>24327638
You won't find too many people on here who like working in the office because most of them are schizoids and/or work bullshit jobs.

>>24327772
>It's far better than getting calls on Teams all fucking day.
no it's not. i can mute dumb meetings and masturbate to pornography, as i have done several times over the past month. i'm not forced to shuffle into a shitty conference room with 10 other retards to listen to some dumb boomer faggot drone on about shit no one cares about. working from home is based.

post yfw middle management cucks are going to be cut out of the equation permanently
hopefully worthless HR roasties too

>>24327889
Then I'm sorry to tell you that you offer very little value. If you don't have an actual speaking role in most meetings, then you work a bullshit job.

>>24323942
lots of people are going to feel like this, either work changes or frustrated people will make companies that replace the old structure

>>24327901
I can't wait for the day whole HR departments are laid off in mass

I JUST WANT A JOB

>>24327965
HR will always be around. You have to be a serious retard not to realize that they're essential for legal purposes and to protect the company from lawsuits. They're basically O'Brien from 1984.

>>24327946
i'm a senior accountant at a publicly traded company and i also handle our year end external audit. so no, chances are that my job is far more important than yours. i'm sorry your communication skills are so poor that you need to do everything face to face like a total fucking boomer. better luck in the next life, niggerbrain.

>>24328106
I bet your company is in a loss, LMAO. I'm a senior tax accountant and recently left public accounting. I work for the largest company by market cap headquartered in my state. I haven't had a single meeting where I didn't have a decent-sized speaking role. If just a senior senior accountant handles the year-end audit, then odds are you work for a tiny company in a loss.

>>24327901
Please make it happen, ladder climbers are the worst pieces of shit humanity has ever seen.

i'm the only one that understands what i do at my job
been working remotely since march, they seem to recognize that there's zero need for me to be there and that i can just hop on literally any computer in the world and do my work
if they fire me (or make me quite by trying to force me to come back in) they'd have to train someone on the million+ lines of code ive written which would take at least 5 years

>>24327901
thats why i love WFH - it's exposing worthless social engineering social climbers. fuck them.

>>24328158
>public accounting
i had a strong suspicion i was talking to a retarded cuckhold, now it's been confirmed. i'm sorry you are too stupid to accomplish anything without your manager holding your hand, or without setting up a 1 hour meeting with the client so they can explain simple shit to your dumb ass. also no my company isn't "in a loss." i do far more than the audit, that's just my most communication intensive role and i do it 100% over email and teams calls without issue, on schedule. cope harder.

t. worked at EY for a year in audit. fuck every faggot onions nigger that works in public, i hope you're all gassed to death.

You are all turbo autists being in an office isn’t that bad. I didn’t have time limits in my job though so I could come in and leave whenever so long as the work was done. But I’m in a white collar high demand, low supply job in tech. Can’t imagine it’s much worse for anybody in my type of industry

>>24328050
That role will obviously always be around in some capacity, but hopefully in the near future it will be reduced enough so junior associates who just received their first promotion that brag on an anonymous imageboard about anyone who thinks differently than them works a "bullshit job" and enjoys dressing up in their slacks and vest to go play a corporate charade to feel important from whining to them about someone "not being a team player" because they can see through the bullshit.

>>24328252
If you only lasted on year in public accounting, then you obviously sucked. No one worth a damn would leave before making senior. Thanks for confirming my suspicion. You work for a tiny company in a loss. No senior--especially not one who couldn't even handle a year in public accounting--could be responsible for coordinating a year-end audit with the audit firm, unless the company is a complete joke.

>>24328360
i guarantee i make more money than you. also my company is doing a $450 billion divestiture, watch the news cuckboy.

>>24327530
no you won't

>>24328396
You don't make more money than I do. You probably aren't even a CPA.

>>24327638
t. useless middle manager

look at the wagies fight kek

Where my WFH engineers at? I haven’t seen a coworker in person for over 6 months. It better fucking stay that way too or I’m going to quit and become a Neet I swear.

>>24328616
MechE here. Excel is pretty easy to use from home

>>24328158
U got BFTO bitch, go talk with your boomer friends in the coffee machine addicted to social interactions bitch

>>24328577

That's incredibly amusing

>>24328577
waging from home makes it barely tolerable. i might kill myself if they force me back to the office. i just want to work from home in a low cost of living area far away from niggers and jews, what is so wrong with that?

>>24328761
Is that why he stopped responding to me? He couldn't handle even one year in public accounting and obviously works for a joke company now. Wow--I sure got BTFO'd.

>>24328662
Lmao yeah guys like this are the average WFH crowd. Running parts spreadsheets and project management and making a bloated as fuck salary.

>>24328014
Every police department in a USA desperately needs applicants. Every state, county, city, town, and village force.

>>24324245

Nice cope
Shit will never b the same anon

>>24329509
I'm the middle of my studies, I need a job related to it so that I may continue em with some apprenticeship
Althought it's been since august and I can't find dick

Dont worry wagie youll get an individual pod to go back to where you never see anyone or interact it will be much less stimulating than before

>>24327638
Retard. Fuck off with your traffic kike

>>24329093
It sucks because I actually have to sort/filter through fairly large amounts of equipment data on a daily basis. I can't just "get my work done in two hours and play Vidya for the rest of it" as I've been seeing in some of the wfh generals.

>>24326184
>would rather be a bum for the rest of his life
>could just stop being huge faggot and just wagekek for 2 years on beans n rice to build capital and invest it

Worked from home in 2017 when I went full-time self-employed ended up setting a physical place of business. Good to have a bit of variety and see people but the thought of having to go into "work" for somebody else makes me wanna KMS would rather drive uber or some bullshit if it came to it.

>>24328577
both are larping NEETs most likely

>>24327638
it really depends on your commute. it’s a 20 minute walk for me downtown in a big city so i didn’t mind so much. i used to have to drive 2+ hours every day and i’d want to kms by the time i got home.

>>24330046
Just something to consider. Everyone overlooks the career these days because the media makes them think they understand it.
