Work from home thread Anonymous 314354

I can't find the current smalltalk thread so here is one for all of us remote wagies. How do you spend your downtime when you work from home?

I'm back to work after vacation and I can't focus so I'm doing laundry and browsing this and the other site and I'm so bored and it's cold and I'm drinking seaweed soup. I have 14 tasks left to do for work and 2 loads of washing some musty old clothes I kept around in garbage bags, which I will sort afterwards and discard of all the old orphaned socks. There are some bras with one wire missing or poking and I don't even know why I didn't just throw them away years ago. There's two dresses I could probably give to a thrift store or sell online but the effort of ironing and making them presentable is probably not worth the maybe 5 bucks I'd get for them but I feel bad throwing them away so this is how I ended up with 2 garbage bags of clothes gathering dust and moths over 6 years.

How to get decent wfh job? It feels like all the low tier tech cert shit dried up.

i never took certified IT work to be a wfh job, the only low-skill wfh jobs that haven’t gone the way of the jeet a decade ago are terrible-sounding sales jobs. like cold-calling all day for insurance companies

I'm OP (the other response you got isn't me) I lucked into it, my CV is all over the place and my absolutely insane boss liked that I have a mix of experience with e-commerce and customer service with a focus on difficult clients (I worked for a covid vaccination hotline before and it was hell). I was applying to every bearable seeming wfh job listed on recruiting websites and heard back from a few but this one hired me on the spot during our first call.

It's an email/ticket job working for a tech sales company where I do mostly internal communication between the CEO and repair centers or lawyers and tell him about updates and forward summaries of the cases to our lawyers and send some "we told you what we can do about it, if you don't want any of this then contact us through your lawyers you speak of" emails to customers. It's very flexible and relaxed and pays well. The only downside is my boss. He's a far right aggressive moid who fulfills every single stereotype of a dangerous scrote who will kill someone one day and his temper is extremely volatile and every call is 90% about his personal life and it's a small company with his wife being the HR so we're all at his mercy and whims. But I work 5 hours a day and effectively I only spend an hour of that really working. The rest of the time I dick around or sometimes go run errands.
