Remote jobs that don’t feel like working?

I am looking for a career change and looking to get into remote jobs. I hear from various redditors that a lot of working from home does not actually feel like working at all. I see comments like: ” I only do 2 hours of actual work and get paid 8 hours a day.” To me this sounds like a dream job. The problem is that I've only worked blue collar jobs. I currently work as a security guard. Before that I worked at a computer repair shop for a year as a unpaid intern. I did go to community college for 3 to 5 years but I dropped out after low grades. I am also a fast typer being able to type up to 100 wpm. I want to know where are some entry level positions that are like this?

Should I lie on my resume to get a good paying job?

I can’t afford college and I don’t have any experience outside of being a fucking janitor. I want a nice paying job where I’m home on the weekends and I can have vacation time.

Most underhanded employers?

Hai Guyz, I was wondering what company would be the most underhanded. My vote is for H&R Block. You have to pay for your own training. Even then you aren't guaranteed a job. You also can't use said training to compete with H&R in any way. Also it's a seasonal job. The IRS has the tools to file your 1040 for you, but the lobbyists for H&R Block say no.

who takes responsibility?

I feel like all my life, I see corporate make mind boggling bad decisions, yet I don't ever see anything come from it. For instance, multi billionaire company pushed out a location manager. They were sued and had to settle for quite a lot of money. Almost 2 years later, the location which had 5 years worth of contractual work at the time of firing, is struggling for business. Now they are having to close down the location. So, why is it the people who made those decisions are still employed with their titles entact? But some hourly employee shows up 5 minutes late a few times in a week and they are shit canned and detrimental to the business for the inability to be on time.

Quitting After Major Surgery

I just got off a meeting with my managers, and I spent the entire video call sending my resume out. I had to have major reconstructive surgery (double mastectomy) and I currently WFH. My upper manager is after me about when I’ll be returning to office, meanwhile she openly admitted to infecting 6 other managers with “stomach flu” after also admitting the entire office doesn’t have enough desks to hold everyone and they were put together in a conference room. As required by law, I had to use my entire years worth of sick time before my STD leave kicked in. She said in very clear terms that any sick days taken after your balance runs out is grounds for write-ups and termination. I don’t understand how a company can see someone have surgery, and then allow them NO leeway if there’s complications or other illness (like, oh idk, another…

Boss called me to his office to bring him a coffee.

When I get to his office door is shut so I knock, don’t hear anything so I knock again. “Just open the damn door” he yells. I punched the key code in, and said “sorry wasn’t sure what you were doing” to which he responded with “that was a stupid fucking thing to say” I placed the coffee down and left. I really wish I said something back. But this just pissed me off. I work in a restaurant and I am a server not a servant first off and I was just being polite and respectful knocking on your door. This isn’t close to the worst thing he’s said before just bothered me today. /rant
