Ready for work tomorrow? You are showing up early, right?

Reminder that Mike Rowe has never worked a "real job" he pushes on you.
Grow up dude
why this jew always looking like he tryin to squeeze one out
Nah calling off tomorrow
I haven't worked since 2015.
It’s a holiday tomorrow. Getting paid to sit around.
Remember kids. Working for less than minimum wage is good for the economy and the country, only communists ask for raises.
I don't have a job
Doesn't this fag have an arts degree or some shit
Companies get mad at you if you clock in early or out late.
knowwhatimeanvern?
He's a theater kid who was an Opera singer
I can't even get a job stacking boxes
Stacking boxes isn’t a job
Fedex hires anybody and everybody. I hate working there. You don't actually have to be good at stacking boxes or any general competency, like jeets (yes they smell like shit and their language is what I imagine the buzzing gibberish of beelzebub sounds like).
yes it is, any paid work you do on a regular basis is a job, i think you mean it isn't a GOOD job, its certainly a job though
lets see those hands college boy.
only the well run companies whos operations are so tight theyve balanced payroll
When I used to work on the clock I'd punch out the moment I hit 8 hours. Since then I've reached practically the top of my career and now have a flexible work schedule i.e. people work around my schedule and two levels of bosses above me aren't really my bosses as they can't fire me or tell me to do shit. One thing I've noticed is that I'll often clock in 9, 10 hours nowadays, just to make sure everything is in order. Moral of the story is that, unsurprisingly, if you give people low paying shit jobs without the possibility of advancement, they'll seldom be enthusiastic about the quality or output of their work
Yes I am. Because working gives me purpose and sitting at home being a neet doesn’t. I’ve been down the neet road. Took years to build myself back up from the damage it caused. Now I work and have confidence and money and my life is infinitely times better. The hardest part sometimes is simply getting out the door. Once you’re there it feels good to be out and with other people. Cope and seethe neet fags
What's Ernest P Worrell up to these days?
Yep. Got my boss' tip squared away too. Wasn't sure if I could afford both the landlord and the boss this week but one of my side hustles came through with a bonus from the client so I was able to do my duty toward my betters.
I have a severe concussion and I'm wearing a moble EEG machine. No work for me.
Still dead, unfortunately.
just drive two hours for a job that won't pay enough for gas
Interesting concept.
You gotta spend money to make money. Take that job. Do that work. Get the experience. Knowledge is more valuable than gold. Network. Build a career one Risk at a time.
Get up and go back to work.Turn that concussion into a cancussion.
*heavy voice*
NO
I hope you thanked your boss for giving you the opportunity to work and then apologized for getting injured
Hell, no. I was just super drunk and fainted on my feet. Cracked my head real good.
No? You mean no quitting? That's the spirit.
tip your supervisor
do americans really
Once you’re there it feels good to be out and with other people.
Can only be around a handful of people. Anything more and the anxiety rolls up and I start acting out.
Working for less than minimum wage
Dumbass
I purposefully never tip at restaurants and cafes to save up money to tip my shift supervisor and landlord.
im 30 years old and never had a job in my life and never will.
I know someone who worked on one of his productions. Apparently he's an asshole who shows up for 2 hours to film then leaves.
I work at NASA and do maybe 11 hours of real work a week. my coworkers bring in donuts too. it's like the Simpsons
I work in state government and am the only one in my office who actually works. I can't wait for my contract to expire.
DOGE can't come to the state level soon enough.
Unless you're salaried, which means they fucking love it, because it's free labor for them.
Yes, I signed the pledge
I don't wanna go to work tomorrow...
lmao
It looks like someone's got a case of the Mondays.
told boss I quit
says I need to work the mandatory two weeks before I can go
what do I do bros?
okay this guy isnt a cuck like Tony is though.
This entire concept of jobs and the economy is bullshit
I got work tonight. Fuck my life. Wish I was some rich fuck who had a fake "job" like hosting a TV show.
Unless you already are hired for another job, or you are leaving because they are abusive or mean to you or something- then I say it doesnt hurt to put in the 2 weeks. You leave a good impression walking away, get your last paycheck there, and no bidges get burned. Win win.
I'm actually moving to first shift tomorrow so I do have to get up early.
HE'S A HECKIN WHITE COLLAR ART'S MAJOR
HE'S NOT A BLUE COLLAR WORKER AT ALL
HE'S A PHONEY!!!
Yes, him being a "fish out of water" is LITERALLY the point of the show and he admits this freely, you illiterate reddit-tier retards.
People still buy that game?
Kek.
Communism is why we don't have higher real wages.
They push government intervention which causes human suffering.
I only ever use Anon Babble at work.
same.
I wonder if these anti-work/wagie posters are paid shills whose sole purpose is to try and demoralize young men from working. You are better off working at McDonald’s making $15 an hour than you are sitting at home being unemployed. Don’t ever fall for the bait with these threads that actively mock working. Awful, rotten human beings to try to discourage young people from working, baka
weeks ago
supervisor says there is a guy there (same position as me) who shows up early every single day
me: "That is crazy. Good for him."
I keep getting there on time, not early and not late
last Monday
boss says there is another guy (again, same position) who always shows up like 40 minutes or 1 hour early
me: "Really? That is so cool."
You're allowed to fire me or pay my overtime, boomers, but I won't show up early for free.
Trying to haha
I'm the manager at work tomorrow. We don't open until four in the afternoon. I can stay up all night drinkin' beer. So go kick rocks, Mike! Heheheh.
supervisor
overtime
oof ngmi
Please, explain.
I lost points on a review because I leave when I'm scheduled and never stay late...not allowed overtime. I quit.
How do you survive. I'm 23 and never had a job. I'm considering getting one but it seems so foreign to me. If I could never work for the rest of my life that would be ideal if I knew I was safe from the consequences.
low level job. should have a manager and working salary.
Then just go find one. It's easy now because the internet works. When I was eighteen, I had to pound the pavement everyday. Just walking into places asking for applications. It took me a week to get job. And nobody had cell phones back then, so I to check the answering machine every few hours to see if I had an interview. It wasn't fun, but it worked.
cleaner at Taco Bell
In core (big bosses can stroll through at any moment)
Pretty much the only one who is doing all the massive amounts of cleaning because until recently I was the only cleaner
They had me coming in at like 10pm-4am even 12am-3am and expected me to do all this shit
Finally get a new cleaner for nights
He is lazy as fuck and I am still doing all the dishes and detailing by myself while he just walks around when I am supposed to be training him
Probably only making a few dimes less an hour than I am to do basically nothing while I do everything
A lot of this shit I just do on my own volition without being asked
Now they have higher and higher expectations from me but all I get is a "good job!"
I finally had both Saturday and Sunday off last week for the first time in months and one of the first comments from our supervisor was "well, look who decided to show, Mr. Two days off in a row"
I thought you never had a job. Let's go back to talking about how you got so good at that.
>Now they have higher and higher expectations from me but all I get is a "good job!"
This is what happens if you go above and beyond while the rest slack off. No go deed goes unpunished
I’m a state government employee who makes $174k and I won’t be working tomorrow.
My public sector union negotiated a perk where we get every other Monday off. I don’t work another Monday until June 9th. I work from 80% of the time and even that’s some incredibly easy and tedious task that I barely show up for. I’ve gooned my way through so many trainings I’ve got a cert in pulling pud on the taxpayer dime.
You are showing up early, right?
I got wrote up for leaving 5 mins early once.
Since then, the second 5 oclock rolls around, I will disconnect mid conversations. Anytime anyone complains I forward them the writeup that specifies I am paid till 5.
You want a job? You go find one. Simple as.
i work in a warehouse and my supervisor is a woman
if i dont tip her she yells at me
what if someone pays me to stack boxes, faggot? I thought you boomers were all autistic about free and mutually consensual transaction deals.
a week
lol. that's lightspeed now, the internet has made the job search slower
There are millions, probably tens of millions, of people around the world with far more nonsensical, tedious, pointless, or redundant positions for which they’re compensated than stacking boxes. Faggot.
just make money doing what you want to do.
Why can’t Mike Rowe take a shower?
Unless you’re under contract you can terminate the employment at any time. They might not give you a good recommendation but if you have another gig lined up fuck it
1000 other people applied for this job
T-thanks Indeed.
doing anything more than the bare minimum in a service job
I learned this a long time ago; if you’re in a lower level service job, doing your job well and h going above and beyond will only result in more work unless you make it explicitly and repeatedly clear you wish to advance. It’s frustrating as hell.
Opens himself to all kinds of legal exposure since his show is called DIRTY jobs.
That makes sense. It's easy to apply for jobs now, and more people can easily apply. Back in '99, simply walking into a hotel, restaurant, etc, and asking for a job was a demonstration of work ethic.
I can wagie away so i can go home and be a nobody, or i can have all day to be a nobody. I've done both, still prefer the latter.
yeah, tipping culture is bullshit, and now they don't want to pay taxes on it. You think that will include 'tips' and 'superchats' people receive on Youtube, Chaturbate, Onlyfans and Fansly?
The bare minimum, if that. Take a 3 hour lunch. Clock in and vanish.
What are they going to do, fire you?
Did you sign anything? They can’t make you do a fucking thing. I wouldn’t list them as a reference but there’s nothing they can do.
they don't want to pay taxes on it
This is sort of get, tipping was big when everyone was using cash so income was all hidden. Now nobody uses cash so they have to claim everything.
slave's mantra
I have had an awful lot of servers asking me to tip them over Cashapp lately. Leeches.
why yes let me give you my taxed money so you have tax free income in order to save a greedy cunt business man some money
early life history
Just tell them you don't have any money.
once you’re there it feels good to be out and with other people
lmao failed normie
trades are shitty jobs and the mike rowe is part of a psyop to flood the labor pool
I’m such a pathetic humiliating embarrassment
I hate normalfags so god damn much. They're retarded, lazy, whiny cretins. They blather on about their cats or their kids or some celebrity bullshit for hours instead of working and look at you like you're weird when you try and make sure shit gets done right. What happened to taking pride in your work? I'm here anyways, might as well do the best I can. But no, apparently it's weird to give a shit about the outcome of your labour.
pic unrelated
OP will defend fat fucks like this
their language is what I imagine the buzzing gibberish of beelzebub sounds like
KEK!!!
Nah i work in a union
I show up 5 minutes early, do a group stretch, sign safety task forms, then go meetup with the crew and get laid out by my foreman, work for a bit, take a break, work for another two hours, go to lunch, work for another two hours then clean up half an hour before quitting time
Do it all again the next day for the next 25 years
go to work, clock in, then leave the premises and remain clocked in until they fire you. Don't pick up the phone for them when they do. When you get the paperwork saying you've been fired, demand your last paycheck and file a wage theft complaint with your state's labor organization. File for unemployment right away and contest it if your claim gets denied.
having a contract is even funnier because then you can show up and do a comedically bad job until they agree to just pay you out. obviously this varies by the terms of your contract, but if you don't like your employment contract, you can actually just ignore it.
I “work” as a doordasher, since as a college student literally no one has hired me. I make like $15 a hour, not great but better than being a wagie in a cage.
works extra hard at his Job™ for 0 extra pay
calls others normies
Absolutely nothing brain breaks a member of the Mike Rowe species more than these three words
You do it
There are plenty of variations you can use too, for fun
What happened to your arms and legs?
Pull your own weight
What will you trade for?
And so on. The amount of times I've seen these phrases result in complete meltdowns is surprising.
I have to wake up for work in 4 hours and 32 minutes.
I've been sleeping 5 hours a night for the last 5 years since I began wagecucking fulltime.
Had to start drinking coffee after I fell asleep standing up in front of the machinery.
After 6 months I felt numb to reality.
My soul is dead now.
I had a gf for 2 years but she dumped me when I refused to become a rentoid because living with my parents is my escape hatch for when I finally can't stand wagecucking anymore.
I'm 31 with 70k saved.
I wanted to buy a tinyhome so I could work part-time again but they all had a fucking 458 dollar a month HoA fee.
Couldn't even afford it.
I got some Indian girl willing to fuck, I made out with her and rubbed her pussy but she wants me to give her an STD test result before we fuck.
So I stopped replying.
I'm repulsive to women and I'm too poor to be a beta male provider.
I've lost like 15 IQ points due to missing almost 5200 hours of sleep I should have had.
But I can't stand to do it without the wagie rage overtaking me.
I can't imagine another 50 years in this fluorescent gehenna.
Fuck kike Rowe and fuck wagecucking.
What happened to taking pride in your work?
I prefer "You get what you pay for". Go find the best craftsman in the world and underpay him and see how much pride he takes in your project. This cancer that I should give 100% no matter what is why people burn out.
when i had a job i was late every single day
spends his own gas money and puts miles on his own car just for the privilege of working without benefits or worker protections or consistent wages or job security
0 professional contacts established, 0 resume-building occurring
"not great but better than being a wagie in a cage."
they are fucking playing you, man. Doordashers and gig-economy bros are some of the biggest suckers in American history. If your only contact with your employer is through a phone app, you are a member of the new slave caste.
Why would I care about the quality of my labour when my employer doesn't? Welcome to the Scamconomy. Every company I have ever worked for involves middle man executives looking to rip off the employees, their customers and ultimately the companies owners.
Nigger it’s not even a real job, it’s a side hustle for a college student with no other options. I always go to the same location where I spend the least amount of gas, you think I haven’t tried getting into other jobs?
0 professional contacts established, 0 resume-building occurring
If that means flipping burgers and dealing with retarded customers with the same base pay, fuck that
tfw 33 years old and 100% disability from the VA
I never have to work again and I get no societal shame for my neetbux
side hustle
yeah and you're the one getting hustled
your employer is through a phone app,
I don’t contact anyone. I send shit and get paid, that’s it.
I think there's a reasonable middleground between being a useless asshole who gets paid to be a useless asshole who steals real estate and tax dollars and slaving away at obscene hours for dogshit wages to help some Jewish executive afford his eighth yacht and second private plane that is not only happy to give you more work in return for your accomplishment of making life easier but also seeks to replace you with an illiterate Indian because they're cheaper.
How exactly. You want me to just be a neet and rot, or work at McDonald’s?
I get to wake up and teach 6th graders. It's the end of the school year and state testing already happened so I'll probably just put on Space Jam for all of my classes
work at McDonald’s?
absolutely, having a McJob is one million times better than being a drone for a phone app. I have no idea why you think that's somehow the worse of the two options. At McD's you'll make the same $15/hour except you're not burning gas and putting wear on your car and exposing yourself to risk from traffic accidents. You'll get benefits and worker protections, such as unemployment pay and health insurance. You'll actually meet coworkers and get to know people and learn how to exist and work; if you're lucky you can meet people who will be useful to you later.
I cannot emphasize this enough: Doordash, ridesharing apps, all that other shit - they're all scams and you're the mark. You are doing real labor, for pennies, with 0 benefits or job security.
based
Need to work at least 30 hours a week for benefits
They schedule you for 29 hours every week
Even if you hit 30 the "benefits" are an absolute ripoff
For example at Taco Bell I can get health/vision/dental after a year but the deductible is 10k. That's like a sixth of a GM's salary here.
Honestly I'd rather never work again and just practice my art while on disability bux, but property taxes are expensive and mom keeps bugging me about work.
tfw working 9 days straight
tfw still only counted as a part timer
My aunt (who lives with me) tested positive for covid today. She's going to be out of work for probably weeks now, and so will I if I catch it. I don't want to fucking catch it though, because I had that shit in 2023, and it raped my ass for a month.
I caught it and all it did was make my temperature rise to 105f and induce fever dreams. It was an interesting change-up. Would do again.
nooo Elon don’t cut our budget.
You get what is coming
vision and dental don't have deductibles, they have limits. it's free money if you need glasses or dental work
$10k health deductible
most plans will partially cover bills and fully cover preventative visits even before hitting the deductible, but if some Real Shit should happen, being on the hook for $10k is still a lot better than being on the hook for $150k.
you also get vacation time and OT, which are two more things Doordash doesn't offer
if your chosen employer screws you out of being a fully-vested employee, you need to find another employer - but that's SO much easier when you already have a real job.
How would you react if you learned you were sharing a board with someone that is 36 years old and never worked an actual job in their entire life? Asking for a friend, haha
why didn't it happen?
how do you survive now?
When you have to walk a mile in 110 degrees weather with the sun in your face only to work 3 hours
Get off and start walking home and suddenly summer rains but you have no umbrella
Shuffle home miserably as cars honk at you while they pass by
Woman stops and throws crumbled up dollar bills right at your face without saying anything then drives off
I've been sitting inside work in full uniform and have had women come up to me and say very loudly "I SAW YOU SITTING HERE THROUGH THE WINDOW. HAVE YOU EATEN? CAN I GET YOU ANYTHING?"
Ma'am I work here
Then all my co-workers laugh at me.
haha my friend lives off his parents who collect social security lol, pretty funny it just never happened for him haha, he went to college and never did anything with his degree and has stagnated at home for the last 15 years haha
when his parents die he is going to be so fucked haha he doesn't even have healthcare lol
Can't say i blame him. Unless you're trying to start a family, there really isn't fuck all of a reason to do more than the minimum.
lol my friend contemplates suicide from time to time but actually stays reasonable mentally fit by exercising daily. He also takes care of fixing stuff for his parents, going to the grocery if they need it, cleaning the house for them, etc. It's not all bad even if it's depressing at times, as long as he avoids thinking about the existential dread he sleeps well at night haha
STD testing is just good manners.
I wasn't saying they had deductibles just that they are rolled into the same plan(s.) And I don't particularly need any of them aside from medical.
you will need dental work done. left to their own devices, your teeth can and will ruin your life. There's a reason every ancient culture had dentists.
except you're not burning gas
Again, I’m able to pick locations where I don’t have to drive for long periods of time
putting wear on your car
True I guess
traffic accidents
Superstitious much?
You'll get benefits and worker protections, such as unemployment pay and health insurance
That’s actually a pretty good reason, I haven’t considered that
You'll actually meet coworkers
Ones that will probably piss me off and give me a hard time?
I can understand more now the benefits of working a wagie job compared to dashing, but again (cause I have to repeat myself for you)
1:I’ve tried to apply to jobs and kept getting rejected
2:I’m in college so I’m just trying to make some quick easy money
Also
you also get vacation time, which is something DoorDash doesn’t offer
Except you literally pick your own hours to dash? You can just stop dashing for a month and then go back if you want to.
Again, from my experience dashing, theres no employer or anyone checking up on you or anything, you have a lot more free will. I’ll give you the car stuff and health insurance benefits, but don’t act like working at fucking Taco bell is any better than sending deliveries (though maybe to employers it is, which is retarded)
NTA but you don’t even know his dental situation
Maybe in 20 fucking years. I'm 33 and have zero cavities.
You are doing real labor, for pennies
Depends. You can even make $30 an hour if you’re in a good location and pick good offers. I’m not saying DoorDash is a great job omit anything, but it’s better than not making any money
everyone on Anon Babble claims NEET
How? I know euros get unlimited gibs, but what about the Americans? Do you 30+ year old niggas live with your 70 year old parents kek?
Except you literally pick your own hours to dash? You can just stop dashing for a month and then go back if you want to.
You get paid for vacation time. It's not just a leave of absence, it's money.
A cavity is any region of a tooth which has experienced a loss of density. It's impossible to know whether or not you have cavities without an x-ray. I had a seemingly-fine molar crack in half at the age of 27; it had no visible perforations but had rotted from within.
You are a huge faggot. A dental x-ray is a couple hundred bucks without insurance. I'd rather that than pay $20 a month extra every month for 20 years.
I hear being a UPS driver pays well, should I look into that?
You get paid for vacation time. It's not just a leave of absence, it's money.
Nice benefit I guess, not a big deal for me
I'm a temporary NEET, living off of savings. Will have to work again before too long unfortunately.
Fellow burgers i imagine are either with parents or on disability. I've seen some anons claim they're able to NEET by having autism/assburgers/etc. diagnosis and getting disability or permanent unemployment.
If you love driving, sure
that doesn't even make sense. You're going to get one single x-ray and then never have your teeth examined or cleaned ever again?
my dental insurance costs $6.47/mo and it's got a $1,500/yr limit. By my napkin math, I only need to spend ~$77 per year to break even - which is 1/3rd of a typical x-ray or about 1/5th of a 3D scan.
Last time I had it, it was like a really bad flu. Which doesn't sound that bad, until you realize you can't even physically go out and drive anywhere for weeks.
Isn't this Cocksucker a MAGA?
