People always compail about office jobs being borring and unfulfilling and shit. But jesus fuck it's a 1000 times better than working on an assembly line, how can people actually endure that kind of work? 8 hours of doing the exact same motion over and over again while you can't even sneeze without your supervisor's permission. I've worked in an office and on an assembly line and I would rather be unemployed than do literal slave labour. I pity those poor souls who have to do this for a living
I worked in operations for a manufacturing plant, we had old machinery so a ton of stuff had to be completed or worked on in some way by human hands.
It is literally modern day slavery for low drive people. They just show up, do whatever they're told, and leave. No agency, no upward path except to oversee the other slaves. You fuck up your body with repetitive motions and you rot your brain from lack of mental exertion.
Absolute worst dead end job you can get, anons if you have to do something like this to survive make sure you don't do it for long, it is literally the worst form of labor out there.

You can always listen to podcasts while doing these, right?
Nope, safety regulations prohibit use of earphones and i doubt you're allowed to use loudspeakers to listen to your favorite natsoc podcasts
>Nope, safety regulations prohibit use of earphones
Nigga what? They wear ear protection headphones and those usually have radio in them. At least where i worked in factory
Protective gear for ears are mandatory but your airbuds blasting fashwave are no bueno
"You can't hear danger approaching" is the reasoning over here
You can't have two headphones in here for that reason. You are allowed one.
But are you allowed to have radio in your ear protection headphones?
I "worked" in Yazaki, Dimitrovgrad. You are not allowed to wear headphones and listen to music.
You assembled systems for mercedes-benz, like airbags, the wiring on the cars and so on.
I wouldn't work a factory job unless I had a family to support.
Most of the workers in the factory I work in are alkies and get hammered after their shift and I completely understand that.
My dad worked in a chemical plant for most of his life, most of his coworkers were dead by 55 from inhlaing toxic fumes and alcoholism. My dad's joints and back are fucking blasted, shit's insane
A lot of this is true, but the best sweet spot for them is a highly automated (but not fully automated) assembly plant.
This allows you to groom the drone workers into managing multiple stations. This gives them more "challenges" and variety in their work, and thus they stay forever.
One of my customers in Germany (we sell robots/assembly processes / factories) was running a factory with 7-8 people that the American equivalent would require 50-60.
The 7 guys were all great German men who liked the regular hours, regular commute and working with cool robots and software. Some of them had been there 10+ years, and made decent money (for Europeans).
People here judge harshly, but any stable society needs a role for 80-100 IQ people to make decent money and dignified work.
>but any stable society needs a role for 80-100 IQ people to make decent money and dignified work.
This.
I used to work at a factory that made the explosives for airbags. It was the worst work imaginable. I'd shovel mountains of shit by hand professionally before I went back to
>motion 1
>motion 2
>motion 3
repeat
>motion 1
>motion 2
>motion 3
for a shift that went 6am to 6pm. I'd literally prefer homelessness. Best part? Every once in a while one of the "bottles" (what they called the containers) would explode. Imagine if you were shitposting and I randomly walked up behind you a couple times a day with a shotgun and let go into the ceiling. Hell on earth.
>doing the exact same motion over and over again
I used to grind 16 hours on rpg games. 8 hours is nothing
but without the bing-bing-wahoo dopamine reward system those 8 hours feel like an eternity
Depends. I've done putting shit in boxes. So mindless you can think about other things while doing it, and it's mild exercise. Maybe I didn't mind because I knew it was just a few months, and not my whole life.
There are people who actually prefer such a job. You just put yourself on automatic mode. After a while you can do the motions while thinking about other things.
They should just gamify jobs add sound effects etc. To make it more bareable
Holy audible kek, based runescape grinder
Im currently working in 7/11 becsuse i looked for w proper job for 6 months. At the end of the year im currently planning a russian roulette. Not sure if i actually will but it seems reasonable, so might do it. If theres no hope then there's no point
you should try to immigrate somewhere awful first. try Georgia. The state or the country.

manufacturing assembly line beats so-called white collar bullshit in nearly every way, only exception is salary
I used to be a technician tester back in the Internet boom. Back then the jobs used to pay $22 in 1990s money. Double in overtime. That's not bad for someone without a college diploma. Those jobs all went to China. It was mostly boring but at least you could have a conversation with the guy or gal next to you.
yea office work sucks ass
the main thing I hate is
women
they are fucking everywhere and they make everything 10x more annoying and make you have to talk all the time
Women are retarded. The only thing i enjoy working in 90% dominated field by women is their easy pussy. There is no competition at all. I only talk with these i want to fuck. Ignore others..
>while you can't even sneeze
I don't know what you're talking about. When I used to do that I could listen to music and even discuss with co-workers.
Yeah it's an interesting job, makes you feel so disconnected but it's good for us introverts I guess. Compared to the other jobs I did, there was zero connection. You go in, do your shift, leave. The pay is decent if you're willing to do overnight and week-end hours. Lots of opportunity to do overtime since they're often understaffed or somebody calls in sick. It's just frustrating because it never ends. I prefer jobs in which you're not paid by the hour, but just clock in do your mission then leave. You don't have that here, you don't even times in which it slows down, it's constant 24/7.
>difficult
If you get paid only 15-20 it's not difficult, it's Amazon tier shit a random hobo could do. If it's technical, your pay isn't even close to 15-20.
In Škoda for example, the conditions are very harsh, you gotta meet high production quotas, tight safety regulations. Things like listing to music and goofing off with your co-workers are no bueno.
i had two businesses, one deadended and the other I didnt care for and closed. I found myself tossing boxes at night at fedex while looking for something. I was so happy to just show up, work and have no fucking headaches then go home and not have a second thought about work. No paper work.
I spent a few years there
I used to do factory work back in the day. Yeah, it's repetitive and your body is occupied, but your mind is relatively free. You can bullshit with other people on the line, think about what you want to think about, etc. it wasn't that bad.
My former brother in law said the same thing about driving a cab in Chicago. His mind was free.
PS - Eventually I went into software development, and on many days I am unable to look at the code, as if repulsed by a physical force, and applying myself to the work is agonizing. Spending a day "on the line" would be sweet relief.
>Spending a day "on the line" would be sweet relief.
I think everyone would be a lot healthier if we could do job rotations on a societal level. Sick of coding today? Go do some plumbing or help build a house or whatever.
It would also make society more resilient.
In a way, Sir Thomas More wrote about something like that in 'Utopia.'
Agreed, give society one "smart job", one active job and a day for sports.
Would only work in a communist society sadly.
One of those posher grocery stores (trader Joe's maybe?) Does this with their workers. Everyone is trained in everything so they get to switch it up so they don't get bored. Always seemed like a good idea to me.
Can't have that goys have to "specialize"
I used to do this. I would occasionally take a day off coding to go help out at my old job lifting heavy shit. Fucking loved it.
>You can do bullshit with other people on the line
Nah, gotta meet production quotas + if the supervisor sees you you're gonns get in trouble. But It largely depends on where you work.
Sure, your mind is free and you can just turn off your brain for 8 hours a day. But for me it's excruciatingly boring
It's only boring for idiots who can't use their mind to think about improving their situation while their bodies move. That's why these factories eventually fill up with old women and losers who never leave, clogging a pathway for the young to gain confidence and experience. Eventually the losers unionize and fat, lazy, entitled assholes who tell their kids to go in debt for a worthless college degree using their minds, but alas, their kids are idiots too because the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I think both can be OK.
We need assembly lines asap in North America, with automation and a reasonable schedule wkth livable pay we can have manufacturing and security.
I think four hours of work in assembly line is reasonable, with good pay so people can have work life balance which can strengthen even reproduction and ownership potential, and automatically strengthen security and peace.
I think in this system for manufacturing three day work week is enough to four.
Services are more needed so it would be great if say someone has a three day job in one and one day in the other sector, services can run like now but manufacturing Monday to Wednesday and that's it.
We have tech to organize paradise!
But were Idiots!
I just had to explain same shit for the hundredth time to people who only getit for a day, then forget the whole thing and mix it up, remind them where it's in writing to confirm instructions given... mfg, mfg, mfg
Why do I remember everything z why cant I be like them! lol
I live in HELL!
We have assembly line work like this here and it's minimum wage 12 hour shifts so the plant never stops running. There's no way else to compete with the 3rd world but live like a 3rd worlder. Only good thing about jobs like this is they don't care if you get drunk and high on your break.
>four hours
That is retarded, factories are always understaffed and you'll be doing 8-12 hours anyways being called in.
Getting paid $16-20/hour for nonstop difficult labor is not worth it.
You get paid like 7$ an hour here. The only exception is Škoda because workers there have strong unions and they get tons of benefits but oh boy the conditions there are insane
Škoda Union member here.
Unionize asap.
I work in a company making fuel tanks for car companies, mainly VW and Škoda.
I work in the quality department as an intern, so I have to do assembly line tier work but I work mostly in the office. The operators here get a basic salary of 21k czk brutto a month that goes up to like 26k with years of experience. No unions
Take the CNC pill. It is giga comfy if you can listen to podcasts at the job.
I will start different job soon, but it is good start, if you want to work in technical field.
It's for ppl with no internal voice
If you can steal stuff regularly and sell it outside of work it could be cool
I once work in electric engine factory. And some woman, there was stealing copper wire. She was making more from the wire sales, than her salary was.
test
>how can people actually endure that kind of work?
I love electronics projects. I can easily spend an entire weekend soldering hundreds of tiny components
haha this guy is as white as the arctic
is this really a white guy thing? i thought asians did this stuff too
i hate stimulants
the natural ADHD hyperfocus is powerful enough
asians are white
-_-
How's the Adderall treating you?
I hate soldering so much it's unreal. You inhale the fucking vapor from the flux, if you have facial hair, it sticks in it, you ruin your eyesight completely soldering fucking 0402 and 0201 components an looking at 128 legged QFN chips to see where is the short. I only solder nowadays my own prototypes, nothing more
A good fume extractor, decent soldering tips and a relatively cheap microscope will solve all those problems
Where can i find some good kits that are more than an AM radio or a blinking light?
seconding that
It's for the 80 IQ slave class, a regular human being can't handle it
It's not really the type of work you do that matters but rather how you're treated. If you ask most people who kept working the same job for years they'll tell you it's not the money, the prestige, or the title that made them want to stay, but rather the people they worked with that made all the difference. Who you work with is important, more often than not will even drive content workers to work for less pay if it means those they're around allow for a fulfilling environment.
Back on the topic at hand consider the environment of a cube environment to that of an assembly line. What kind of people work those jobs? What attitudes do they bring? Which one has more naggers? Which one has more cutthroats? Ideally, the "best" place to work (in this context) is one where you'll be surrounded with the type of people who bring fulfilling relationships, and if you chase only titles or a salaries you're liable to wind up fucking yourself into a corner where you hate everything and will begin to invent things daily to bitch about.
>Which people do you work with
Now it's mostly mongolians/Kazakhs/Uzbeks/Romanians/Ukranians. Like 90% of them don't even speak czech
It's a general statement. Assembly lines will be different based on location. Conversely the same can be said in office jobs in different environments. If you were to wind up like I did in a Illinois software office starting out like I did I swear you will never stand the smell of curry again.
Yeah true. Office jobs here are mostly done by czechs. But if you work on an assembly line you'll be dealing with some mongolians from a village in the steppes who can't read nor speak czech.
>But if you work on an assembly line you'll be dealing with some mongolians from a village in the steppes who can't read nor speak czech.
that is a lot better than dealing with nepo israelites constantly trying to get themselves promoted by sabotaging their peers. doing skip levles with israelites annually was the worst when they would lie through their teeth trying to get promoted. white collar work is horrible in a israelite infested environment
that's life. people bitch about these jobs being outsourced to china but would never do them if they came back.
The people who do this shit are in the subhuman cattle class as others have said. They have repetitive and meaningless lives outside of work too. Their money generated from repetitive motion goes towards goyslop, tv subscriptions, in app purchases, and scratch off tickets. These people absolutely terrify me.
you have it all wrong. They will terrify you because they are psycho and will go out of their way to harm you if you cross them
plus they have guns and will kill anything because animals scare them
Never did line work, but I worked at a call center that took inbound calls for infomercials. Most painfully boring and repetitive job I ever had. Got in trouble multiple times for standing at my cubicle because I couldn't sit for 8 hours. Did it for 3 months and then one day on my lunch break I just left and never went back.
Now Call Centers? That is a job that exists for subhumans. The morbidly obese, retarded, sleaballs, and meth-heads are all you'll find at places like that.
>captcha G0YV0D
In normal world that kind of shit gets automated. In israeli world money gets inflated and naggers get imported so it makes more sense to keep a wagie busy than to pay for automated system.
I dunno, boomers here are mainly the ones opposed to getting the populous more educated in order to move to producing things with more added value
Boomers just want to keep their jobs.
If you work assembly 20 years it rots your brain and turns you in to uncreative robot. Naturaly they don't want those jobs gone. Also companies are israeli because they replace 10 low skilled workers with one engenner with 1.5 the salary.
Those assembly lines would be filled with czechs if they paid livable wage, enjoy capitalism and endless slave labor migration from naggers just to keep things floating.
I worked 4 years in a factory, and most of the days went on auto-pilot. The only memories of the day was the trip to and from work, and the lunch-break. I even drove a forklift in auto-mode.
Real NPC shit.
>you can't even sneeze without your supervisor's permission
I've noticed that as a common theme. They intentionally try to demoralise assembly line workers. It's like a corporate rule: "you must shit on them, push them around, constantly complain to them about them and generally make their working time as miserable as you can".
Back to work wagie. I don't like those wasteful motions you're making.
?t=192
Its the future of office workers once ai takes over.
Our Boomers are absolute retards. But at least they are racist. I'll give them that. Average czech boomer would be second hitler in germany.
I did these jobs when younger and they kind of imprinted on me that I should at least perform decent enough to never land in places like these.
Most times I could zone out, but when I couldn't, time never went slower.
I unload trucks and build furniture 5 hours a day 5 days a week. It really leaves me too drained to do much of anything. When the schedule was more erratic and I would get 3 day weeks I could actually muster the energy to go outside and stuff.
True. Half of our patients at neurosurgery unit comes from this field. They all have fucked backs in their 40s. 1/3 of them are heavy alcoholics. Since last year i started doing just bare minimum during my job. Especially during night shifts. These kind of people never talk shit when i pretend i dont have time for them unlike white collar jobs. They are mentally pacified slaves. I pity them sometimes.
Wtf first time my flag changed and its fucking bolshevik
It's because you are descendant of fucking communists ty ostravska spino
yeah? and where do you live, then?
I worked at a few factories that were ok but one in particular stands out that i worked at for a few weeks..it was putting these metal grommets into seatbelt parts and the place was so deafeningly loud you couldnt talk or listen to music or anything so i would just count in my head to 60 over and over keeping track of the time but purposefully counting slower than time so id always be pleasantly surprised at what time it actually was
They always have god awful rotating shifts too.. its like theyre designed to be as aeful ad possible
10 paid weeks off per year is nice tho
I did it. Drove me to drink.
Working construction was preferable.
People often ask what I do for a living I place a sweet sugary treat in boxes.
I place them in the parcels on a daily basis
It is my job They are then ready for shipment as we receive orders from many different places.
I worked in a cookie factory once too.
Fucking awful.
I was never prescribed anything. But I have taken Adderall, get so much shit done. It's the only way I would have the patience for whatever the fuck it is you do for fun.
The thing with amphetamines is that they will give you the feelings of getting a lot of shit done, whilst it is in fact done poorly. Plus the hypersexuality it causes is awful and very distracting.
Wasn't like that for me. I wasn't smoking crack or meth. Just Adderall once in a while.
I miss mindless labor every now and then, it give you time to think. Even doing something as complex as working as a machinist doing valve jobs becomes simple and repetitive and relaxing. The closest thing I get now is rolling around on a lawnmower. Unfortunately it also give you time to get up to mischief which is probably why so many assembly line jobs are authoritarian in nature.
Im the netherlands we give retards these jobs i worked at Caparis when i was a teen for a month or two in a summer vacation. I was surrounded by literal down syndrome tards who would spas out every 5 seconds or so. Sometimes theyd fall asleep behind the line and i had to work harder as my supervisor wouldnt wake them up. So what did i have to do behind the line? Literally just put lids on pots. Lids on pots 8 hours just lids on pots.
Yeah, it's mostly retards doing these jobs, It doesn't cease to suprise me what those people are capable of doing
Im autistic, i love doing the exact same thing all day and it pays $25/hr despite being shart mart tier work
The only thing that demoralizes me on this site if hearing americans talk about their wages. Literal retard tier work gets paid more than 85% of people where I live yet we have higher cost of living.
Thats why i believe canada will have a revolution first
Why haven't you left, isn't Canada like a mix of India and China?
>work in manufacturing
>12 hour days but only 3 or 4 days a week alternating

>Listen to audio books all day
>Manager doesn't like bothering people, I work in peace
>Company has decent benefits
I quit a manager position to do this and although the hours can be long, I haven't had a work message or call since I started. I no longer have to manage retarded monkeys. I really don't have to deal with people. Every other week I get four days off in a row. Honestly, it's kind of freeing feeling, especially if you came from having to deal with employees and customers and vendors all the time. I get paid more and I'm on track for the company paying for me to get a degree.
> also gets on tinder and expects a 6 figure salary, 6ft+, being handsome and super intelligent guy
at least, that bench is ergonomic
boo fucking hoo
They were asking for 10 people for one day in factory near Belgrade. We had a good days wage but the shift manager was a retard babbling about hourly quotas. She said she was going to lower my money so I knocked here out and took my share, felt so good after being nagged at
it is literal slavery and everyone with at least room-temperature IQ quits after one or two shifts. the only people who actually do these jobs are either complete mental write-offs that can't do anything else, those neck-deep in ~~*debt*~~, or both.
t. maintenance technician fixing their machines.
my job is actually comfy though; i get to work on literally everything so it's hard to get bored, i can take as many breaks as i want and it's not even physically demanding.
My last job was at a PVC window factory. No one there wore propper PPE. Retards just inhaling PVC dust for hours a day at an old factory. I was the IT guy, but i always hated having to go down on the floor as the only guy wearing the proper PPE mask. Hundreds of people worked there and i was the only cunt that bother googling if PVC dust was harmful. I was offered an instrumentation tech job, but fuck factories, and fuck being a low tier tech nerd for ~$50k.
Don't enter the working world until you have a bachelors. Two year degrees will have you living the same QoL as someone working part time at McDonalds and living with their parents. I'm currently scouting all the restaurants for QTs, then will get a part time job, and finish my bachelors online. Tech shit only pays out if the job is dealing with high voltage, or cancerous chemicals.
>I'm currently scouting all the restaurants for QTs
Like you're looking for fast food restaurants where girls work? How do you even get them to have sex with you? It's impossible
You need to cert/specialize dude
ofc nobody pays 6 figures for the dude who reboots the printer.
Get some sysad skills, fiber skills, security, etc
Any idiot can do that stuff
So why hasnt anon?
t. Security goofball clearing >200k comp while WFH for maybe 2hr/wk
America today is like the ussr where you need connections to get a good job
No, you need to be not a sperg and spend a little time researching what is in demand in your market segment.
All the real admin jobs require a bachelor. I only get callback for low tier shit with my AA degree. My area is mostly agricultural. There's not many tech jobs.
I've only ever met women at school, or shitty food jobs that high school and college girls seem to flock to. My pizza job co-workers were bros that would hook me up with parties and women.
Just lie anon
Just get sued by your employer for lying and have you wages garnished
You are a shit IT guy if you cannot learn on the go.
Like really who is going to catch you on stackoverflow?
nagger, all the good jobs require a bachelor degree. You can't get your foot in the door without it.
You just are wrong man
I dont have a bachelor nor does half or more of my coworkers.
You have shit experience, shit qual and shit resume and thats why you arent getting callbacks.
What certs do you recommend for cyber?
Start with Net+ and Sec+
Then its time to decide if you want offensive or defensive security
Defensive doesnt pay as much but is a good pitstop on the journey
Defensive: SANS courses, CCNA, CCNP
Offensive: Anything Offsec, GWAPT, SANS
But really dude if you want a near free leg up on your competition, just start grinding out cloud certs for AWS and GCP. The two basic cloud intro certs are nearly free. Now you can add "Cloud" to your resume. Oh you were a devops? Welcome to cloud devops, +30k/yr. Oh you did sysad? Welcome to cloud systems architecting, +50k/yr.
etc etc
Sitting on /misc/ and crying about not having a bachelors is retarded. 100% any company that hires on exclusively degree isnt worth you anyway. If you are old enough you can also stretch your 2yr degree into a 4yr degree (nobody is going to check).
>(nobody is going to check)
Are you sure?
Also, i just looked at cyber security jobs on linkedin. They all want bachelors, masters preferred, with years of experience. When did you get your cyber job with an AA. Sounds like some boomer shit.
I have literally no degree
Ive hired no less than 30 people at an industry leader and nobody has ever checked any degrees.
You got the job just based off certs?
Yes, certs and experience.
Of course the pencil pushers on linkedin are going to cry about degrees and put that shit in every listing. HR women filter is retarded and you need only slide through it to talk to the men you will be working with. Consider changing "AA in Computer Networks" on your resume to "Completed degree in Computer Networks" and putting an end date on it vs 2016-2018 and ENSURING that they know its a 2yr. Not a lie, but rather a deliberate omission that is likely to get you passed the woman filter.
Also you need to send your resume to every job, I dont care if you arent qualified. Even if you bomb the interview its free experience.
If you can also make it to local industry conferences and meetings that will also help you. If you cant attend, look at the list of sponsors and ignore the Ciscos of the list, apply to all the others because clearly they are local and have enough money to pay you over slavewage.
Cool, i'll try that.
Working at mcdonalds sounds like a dream if youre getting to have sex with them after work
Forget qts, do pizza. There is too much unexpected bullshit in the majority of restaurants. Pizza is the easiest type of restaurant of all time. It was made by meds that only sit on their ass.
It actually astonishes me how stupid those people are sometimes.
>You have to take out this part out of the fuel tank otherwise the pump might malfunction and cause trouble, costing us thousands of dollars
And those people still aren't able to do this simple task and there needs to be another person just watching them and making sure they're actually doing it

>Operates with a skeleton crew managed by some boomer who can barely walk
>Every safety incident always involves someone who doesn't work in the factory, some office monkey going to an area they don't belong in.
Every American factory ever, the worst part is the last part, you have someone who is basically wheelchair bound micromanaging everything demanding you work 6x12hr a week falling back on "We're a family here" followed by some thinly veiled jabs about how easy it is to get new employees.
Stay away from aerospace, its a collapsing industry. The news about airports ought to be enough to drive any sane person away from anything related to it. Those planes stop flying-you stop working; no point in making replacement parts for planes that aren't going to fly.
Ah yeah, and they always try to relocate the factory to a place with the lowest wages in the country.
If the planes stop flying then having any job will be the least of your worries.
kek
some people are designed to do it, that's the first thing.
also:
> job always looks the same
> no stress due to no surprises
> no work to do after you leave the workplace
on the other hand, 80% or more people can't handle any work which requires creative thinking and dealing with new issues potentially everyday.
Only retards like communists can think that a white collar job, which isn't just typing the same shit every day, is easier than blue collar jobs
this is how & why you teach kids to stay in school
You feel like you're in brave new world when you work this kind of job.
It’s not bad depending on the daily quota and the size of the factory. I can definitely see it being hell. Sometimes you can still smoke and listen to music lol
Liar, most of the assembly is done by machines now, humans just do tasks that require complex movement or quality control
sucks to suck
Industrial work usually blows at the operator level. I did a bit going through college.
Now im an automation engineer. The fun part about my job is, i do take these jobs away( if the owners are smart enough to invest in automation), but the jobs left are waaayyy better usually.
These type of jobs will go from doing one or a handful of tasks a day on loop, to a small group or trained operators who are smart enough to use the automated equipment. A higher skilled industrial workforce with proper automation will destroy a third world style sweat shop in quality and productivity.
Its really great news, people with an Iq of about 100, 90 min are needed. Sub 90 becomes more of a liability at this point. I forsee manufacturing returning to the first world more and more over time.
People who complain about office jobs being boring have never worked a physical job, or at least not long enough for them to realize how soul crushing it can be. I've only had physical jobs my whole life, mostly factory. I'm 31 now, and in a technical role (factory tradie), it's less physical, but still fairly physical. Working on my four year degree so I can get into an engineering role in an office. Never take for granted all the energy you have at the end of the day, hell the end of the week, when you sit at a desk or walk around typing on a laptop for a living. Also having weekends off, which I don't. Especially as you get older... I'm 31, still relatively young, and I am starting to be able to tell that I don't have the heal like I used to, which is just going to get worse as the years go by.
I dont know, ive done some packing line work before but in a much more casual setting than a factory. Was probably one of the better parts of the job, being able to zone out into my own thoughts while doing repetitive motions.
Having to talk to people, look through files and put up with office bullshit is a lot more mentally stressful i find. Still, ive never tried 8+ hour shifts of doing the exact same repetitive motions so i cant judge conclusively. Either way the ideal scenario is only working part time, 4 hours a day makes me feel productive without killing my will to live.
I work near a factory as a sysaddmin
The operaters get paid the same as I do and they just have to focus on their own lines
Meanwhile I have to know Windows, Mac, App deployment, 120 servers, 300 PC's, 200 mobile devices, weird configurations
dozens of legacy software, weird scanners, horrible implementation of assembly printing etc
I might as well flip burgers
That was what i was doing. It was great experience. Those cunts tried to send me up on a scissor lift without the proper OSHA cert, so i reported them to L&I and made the maintenance guys run all the lines lmao.
One time they sent me up to install a camera. The scissor lift alarm started going off, indicating the safety struts should be deployed past this height. The operator down below was like, "don't worry about it" and sent me up, then hit the e-stop to shut off the alarm. Why are factory wagies so willing to do illegally dangerous shit?
>Assembly line job
the time goes by really fast
you show up, eat lunch, and it's time to leave
You always can go back to the front.
I work in a factory by myself and do whatever the fuck I want. Today I will probably get some fried chicken and play silent hunter 3 all day.
How do you have it for yourself?
My company is contracted by the factory to do work there because they kept fucking stuff up. There is only a few of us and the work is nearly 24/7 so I might only see a coworker for a few minutes per week.
I have optimized the equipment we work on so well that you basically push some buttons and that's all you need to do unless something breaks.
Automate, automate, automate. Nobody should be involved in those jobs other than overseeing the machines.
I work for myself making high end luxury products.
Sometimes I batch out product 30-50 pieces at a time, each step taking well over an hour as I assemble.
I pay myself $50/hr, listen to podcasts and music all day, drink beer while working alone.
Sorry wagies, I broke free of my cage.
You make bdsm gear dont you
40 year old white women are a great market
Used to work a a meat patty production plant as a maintenance guy. Plant made millions of patties daily for Mc D's, Burger King, Starbucks, you name it. Yes, it's real meat, and the patties are 1/8 Lb. So tiny little shits.
These Line workers would stand at the end of the frozen patty belt and collect stacks of 20 at a time to stack in the boxes all day long. Standing in a cold room in full hazmat (covid), and do one repetitive motion for 8 hours a day with the Shift Supper office overlooking the whole line.
Yeah I think if I ever had a factory job or a service job that required me to deal with uppity naggers I'd almost certainly end up killing myself. This is why I'm never rude to service workers even if they have a chip on their shoulder.
>8 hours of doing the exact same motion over and over
So easy it becomes automatic
So easy you don't have to think about it.
So easy your mind is free.
1,000 times better than having to think about work.
Thinking about work gives me some kind of challange which makes it more engaging, time starts flying by because I have to actually feel like I'm working. Working on a line felt like staring at a wall, with the added benefit that your body hurts like hell after the shift
Says the guy who jerks off for 8 hours a day
You should really stop doing that.
I live in a manufacturing area. Currently work at a manufacturer doing technical support, product development, and testing. Our solders and quality control people are super comfy. Snacks, drinks and work at own pace production. We produce chip boards and what not though.
Just so you guys know, and I'm not making this up, if your city has even a 1% nagger population and has production facilities, then there are most likely uneducated naggers working in warehouses throwing items into shipping or watching and breathing over your food as its being made/cooked/baked before its put into containers and shipped out to your nearest low-cost grocery chain. Chains like kroger for example, foods like all baked goods and anything that you'll see is chain-store brand. These companies accept naggers and spics "without discrimination".
Its the same for assembly production lines.
All your low paying city wage jobs are populated by people who can't get into better jobs, either because of lack of skill or lack of education, so what ethnicities do you think work at those low paying production jobs?
I've seen pajeet throw your precious health food supplements into boxes after having dropped them on the line floor, and marquandre working in the "clean" section where the raw materials for those goods get encapsulated. I've seen naggers in charge of your Food4less WinCo Costco Kroger cookies.
I've seen wagies get mad when their female love interest in the production line starts acting strange with the new guy on the job. Those jobs really do suck but they're employed by hundreds if not thousands of people that go there full-time from morning to evening or whatever shift the facility requires.
Somebody has to do it.
