For some reason I always end up landing myself in jobs where I have my own private office with an insane amount of down time, so I just end up playing on my phone all day. I don't even try to get jobs like this they just find me. I am still jealous of clavicular but this is low-key a lifemog, I've never worked a hard job since I worked at Wendy's when I was 17

Same I've been working on WFH 70-80% downtime tech jobs for the last 4 years but it's lowk making me go insane. I yearn for social work but I don't wanna sacrifice being comfy for work 😊

Step 1 get a computer science degree

Step 2 apply for random administrative jobs that have nothing to do with programming

I thought computer science was a bad degree to be in rn

Standing desk under desk treadmill, scrolling on looksmax, and piddling on my practice pad helps

Python and Excel wizard. They don't understand shit so you just work at like 5% and still look like the hero

You get insane downtimes in tech jobs in general In most American companies work is organized into agile/scrum model with people being given what we call sprints. It short iterative development cycles where devs focus on specific deliverables. The actual hands on development comes in bursts like implementing new features, debugging, fixing issues, and writing unit tests. These coding sessions only take a few hours each day, while the rest of the time is spent on reviews, planning, or coordinating within the sprint cycle. And during this time you can do whatever the fuck you want on your computer. Discord, Reddit, Slack groups are where a lot of tech people hang out

Isnt computer science oversaturated?

Computer science is oversaturated and has a ton of competition but as long as you don't just rely on your degree and learn stuff on the side, upskill on your own, build projects, do competitive coding to show, you can get still get a great job but be prepared for a lot of rejection.

I already have the degree it is what it is. There are plenty of engineering degrees that are extremely under saturated if you are focusing on that. Don't expect infinite downtime though

Which ones?

Agricultural, metallurgical, nuclear, etc etc. you'd be safe with a basic mechanical engineering degree. I just know engineers and I know how busy their work day is

That’s what my old job was like. 12 hours tho but nothing to do but sit there on my phone all day. Thats why I’d get horny and jerk off during work hours because I’m just bored

This too, a basic portfolio and especially an internship puts you in the top 10% of candidates, most of these cs graduates are fat lazy sniveling redditors with no personal projects outside of trash unity games. Tbh being a normal functioning individual who doesn't look like complete shit and has a modicum of social skills puts you in the top 10%

Chemical engineering is a good one. Mechanical also. Another one that is very stable is electrical engineering but you won't make anywhere close to the kind of money top devs make but it is a stable respectable job and you won't have a layoff problem and constantly be learning new stuff like CS
