Let’s brainstorm serious ideas about taking advantage of the system and not working too hard

My aunt became a Catholic nun and lived a pretty decent life in Italy. She helped other people and never had to worry about not having a roof over her head or going hungry.

Any tips for a newbie to the corporate world?

I’m 27M. I’ve avoided entering the corporate world as much as possible through pursuing higher education and doing independent work etc, but my circumstances have changed dramatically recently and i’ve found myself forced to get a corporate gig. Had my first interview last week and got an official offer today. Any tips on how to no go crazy/ make the most out of it/ fuck the system before it fucks me?

I did it, I walked out.

Left a bunch of shopping carts over there. Don’t care, I just don’t wanna work, I didn’t feel like it. Gonna focus on my education. I muted my phone, might kill the battery too. I’m gonna not even go home but chill at a park for the night

(Hopefully) last day of working at Lowe’s! Will still be working customer service but working from home!

I say “hopefully” because I told the girl that I wanted the job and she said my “tone wasn't sure” and she thought I sounded like I didn't want the job but that's just how I sound. So she told me to call her back after I had some “time to think” and I did but never got an answer. So I'm hoping to get a call tomorrow that I have the job!

Found this while moving, felt motivated to tell the story: Paperwork/emails from when the owner decided to fire me (the manager who saved his cafe) for refusing to write up employees who were a few minutes late. The cafe went bankrupt and closed a few months later.

Apologies for the weird pic, I did a panorama shot from the bottom up to get it all in one photo, as I don't have a scanner. I realize I coulda done side-by-side, but this at least maintains the chain of messages in order. Start from the bottom and go up. So I was the manager of this cafe for 1.5 years, and basically saved it from certain doom. The reason? Insane expansion (opened 4 cafes in 4 months after a decently-successful year) led to insane money hemorrhaging across the entire business. I came on board and single-handedly tripled our sales and turned around our public image from “an over-priced, greasy dump” to a fun, community-driven cafe, full of regulars and great folks. Staff loved me. Customers loved me. We got a handful of reviews on Yelp and Google saying things about how much the manager seemed to care about…
