With that IBM PS/2 setup and the IBM2490 Dot Matrix, you are golden getting out those Lotus 3 reports done.

@OP don't forget about ppl bringing donuts and bagels, or attending retirement events of ppl you never met just to get cake and ice cream

This bothers you but "mildy" doesn't?

this is the upper 10% of workplace attainment, just FYI

Just the right amount of mundane. I'm strangely content with this.
d3jake
I could be okay working in an office like this.
mynameisminerva
It's kind of nice, I don't have to be stressed everyday, go in, do my thing, go home. We can't all be firefighters and opera singers...
d3jake
I could see enjoying it. I'm currently working in public service. The idea of a M-F 9-5 job is strange.
Rcb58
This bothers me
mynameisminerva
My job is like this, pretty average, can afford stuff, good people to work with. I know we're supposed to be passionate about work
mynameisminerva
But sometimes it's pleasant enough and pays well enough that it's okay to be passionate about other things.

Jesus, that looks like my Dad's old office. I swore they just emptied out a storage room and put a desk in there.
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
Had a 18 y.o. who worked beside me & he smacked all fucking day long, 16 hours of smacking. I did the math, he'll fit in a spent acid barrel
NineByNine
smacking??
AIRBORNEALLTHEWAY
Chewing with your mouth open, it makes an annoying sound, aka smacking.

crewing tobacco?

I'm more just adding onto OP's meme theme. I'm currently unemployed.

No. That’s not how it works. That’s not how any of this works! Especially loud talking people round my desk
barnwolf
Ya, just put on some headphones turn on some music and get back to work...

TheBestThingOnCHIVEwheneverIFeelLikeIt
You either decide to be at your desk, on time, every morning. Or you decide to find yourself a new job. Do i make myself clear?
topdollar38
Nah, just gotta get in before the boss does
hearthstoneaccount3
do you just not use headphones? I don't understand how people can be bothered by people in an office. I barely interact with other people
somenerandom
I can't imagine working w/o headphones on, but depending on the natue of the job not anyone can/is allowed to do that.
venusofwillendorf
We aren't allowed headphones, it's considered very unprofessional in my industry. Really wish I could have them some days!
nvrclr
F that. I use noise canceling headphones and everyone disappears. Except that one asshole.

Alternate universe Neo, picked the life Agent Smith said had a future.

But does he still help his landlady take out the trash?

Of course he does hes not a monster

Technically in the movies he did pick the life with a future. A future for everyone. Machines included.

Well yah, hence qualified by Agent Smith said...

We seem to be heading downhill on that last one though - especially if it is a red swingline
jimmyjam13
I still love the fact swingline started making read staplers after the movie.

Is this your stapler?

Which color ... ?

I couldnt do it. Sitting on my ass staring at a screen 9 to 5 would kill me.

And Stanley was happy.
Iamthemonkeymansowhatevercats
Yeah, count me out. I chose wild small company life and love it. 9-5 office was soul draining. - am engineer btw.
philosoraptor1000
Am engineer also. I just do what i want (as long as my work gets done) and it seems to work out pretty good.

I don't know, office work feels so meaningless sometimes

must be nice to have consistent hours. my boss recently cut me from 23 hours/week to 11 1/2.... cant say shit about it....
TheBestThingOnCHIVEwheneverIFeelLikeIt
What i wouldn't give to not be ostracized for being 15 min late from time to time!
Eldibs
I don't mind people being 15 minutes late sometimes. It's when they're late every day that it's a problem.
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
How about you be fucking punctual from time to time?
dovahsevobrom
How about you don't judge without knowing their reasons to be late?
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
I will judge because I somehow manage to be on time majority of the time. If you are consistently late, get your shit in order or fuck off.
randomsubrepost
I’m always 20mins early to take someone’s shift...I get phone calls if I’m late, folks think I’m dead
mulligylan
You got the right idea. People in my dept usually show up early and if they let someone know they'll be in late, no one minds
randomsubrepost
If you’re on time, you’re late...
ThoughtYouSaidSithLord
If you’re early, you’re on time? France is bacon?
