Office Space is a horror film.

this a one time deal, or possibly recurring job?

Recurring.

nice

Dunno for how long.

Who's voting Nikki Haley in 2020?

Here's the mega dumb thing.

All work I did today was pointless.

We just cleaned a thing they plan to tear down in January

"Wha? Why?"

This is a good question.

The place that hired this guy and us, have a budget.

And they might as well spend the budget.

possible contaminants

Doesn't matter what.

So we just worked on a thing that will no longer be, in January. lol

I'm grateful to be paid, but as soon as I learned that, my eyes glazed over. lol

sounds like a government plan

maybe easier to get salvage being unpainted?

It's fine. I learned how to 'paintbooth'

lmao

"we have a budget, might as well spend it"

Paint . . . hmmmmm

There are a lot of jobs like that.

@tritrium funny given that they have a budget, yet have no money for it.

Jobs that have an illusion of service.

makes you wonder how they got a budget for it

It's good that people do tactile laborous things.

To get together. To work together. To have lunch.

But knowing that the PRODUCT OF YOUR EFFORT is pointless, does put a cloud over it all.

u dont say

hey, think of it as training where fucking up won't cost someone money

schools here have a yearly budget, better spend it as well because otherwise they get less the year after.

now the equality doctrine has taken place.
Every school principal earns the same no matter how many students there are

#equality

*equity

hey, we need equal pay for equal work /s

Equity laws . oh god

I trained by taking jobs of people i know, renovating the electricity in their houses.
Had good teachers as well, they encouraged me to take it on AND they came to visit the place to check my work after which was really cool tbh

yeah equity pratel

those apprenticeship style jobs really need to come back
