I play games at work all the time. If we're not running, due to, like, maintenance or whatever, it's not my problem. I still have to be there per the attendance policy, and work still has to pay me per the union. Even when we're running, there are lulls for a few hours here and there where I can play something.

[-]

Sapper501@reddit

Ooh, what do you do for work? A job that isn't 100% hyper focused all the time sounds nice.

[-]

PuddlesRex@reddit

Quality control in a factory. Most of our tests are done in an hour or two, and we only get samples every 3-4 hours. Usually they overlap, sometimes they don't.

[-]

Sapper501@reddit

Education requirements? Cause man, I'm getting really tired of healthcare!

[-]

PuddlesRex@reddit

The factory floor does less than us on most nights, and only requires a diploma/GED. I obviously can't speak for all QC departments in the world, but mine requires an associate's in either a science or engineering discipline.

[-]

Sapper501@reddit

Ok cool. Thanks for your help!

papertowelfreethrow@reddit

What do you play? Looking for some to play myself

[-]

Echolomaniac@reddit

If you are into card games and/or roguelikes, I'd recommend Slay the Spire. Fits great with office work.

Recently I've been playing more Runescape mobile. Gotta get that xp in. Although I've also been playing a bunch of assorted switch games. I was playing through the N64 catalog before switching over to RS. My main problem is that there's no wi-fi at my job, and my cell connection is garbage on a good day, so I can't play anything that requires an internet connection that wasn't optimized for 2004 Internet speeds.

[-]

papertowelfreethrow@reddit

I didn't realize RuneScape was on mobile now. My brothers played it all the time when i was young and i never got to play it. Maybe this is a sign 🤔

[-]

Ghant_@reddit

If you're looking for a game you can stop playing at any moment on mobile, android specifically, check out shattered pixel dungeon for an amazing turn based dungeon crawler

Gonna check it out thanks!

why this wagie is so mad

[-]

shangumdee@reddit

I'm this wagie. I have one of those techfag jobs but get shitty salary, don't get any wfh, and get BS tasks to do all day while getting watched over. So naturally i cope and seethe when I see people do similar job make 3x my salary while working 4 hours a week.

[-]

ilikewc3@reddit

Either you don't have tbe experience yet to change to a better job, in which case this shitty job is them giving you a title you don't deserve yet in return for treating you like shit, or you're qualified to find a better job, but just dont...

Liebermode@reddit

Kenshi, Crusader Kings, and Stellaris. All of this game can ruin your life and i'm not fucking hyperboling like some out of touch boomer, the stimulation can suck out your focus for anything else other than clicking maps for hours straight, eating drinking pissing shitting be damned.

[-]

Sunshine_Sage@reddit

Don't listen to him. I stole hundreds of hours of company time, and saved myself the stress while accomplishing an unbelievable amount of personal work. Many jobs are BS jobs. I was a salesman for an industrial company that had already reached its effective market share. Basically, it was impossible to improve any metric. But it was possible to get paid to journal, organize my week, and learn to write well.

[-]

No_Entertainment2934@reddit

Well, that escalated quicker than Drake driving through a school zone..

[-]

fuckitymcfuckfacejr@reddit

If you're putting in actual effort at an average desk job, you either suck at it or you have very little to do most days. 40 hours a week is an absurd amount of time to do what usually amounts to very little work.

[-]

semihdogan@reddit

Factorio. You can pause it or save it when ever you want. Also it will work on a 10 year old laptop.

[-]

professorkek@reddit

Agreed. I spend most of my time playing Factorio in excel so noone will notice anyway.

[-]

PieIsNotALie@reddit

the guys who are like this are usually the poor bastard immigrants on h1bs, meaning if they lose their job, they're getting physically removed. sure they're getting more money than they'll ever see back home, but its a fucking stressful existence.

My big boss caught me playing BrawlStars and didn't care. Still got an offer to extend my contract months after. It's the lower managerial kiss asses that get mad when they see you get comfortable.

[-]

AlfaSurgical@reddit

Same, I get quite a lot of perks from upper management because I do my job incredibly well (still can improve but better than peers).

[-]

Master_Shopping9652@reddit

Serious question: What desk job has so little work, that this situation develops?

[-]

AlfaSurgical@reddit

I think it's designed for 40 yr old normal people that technology is a little hard to Manipulate hence slower productivity. Company sees it as normal though. They hire a 22 yo that's great at computers and does all tasks in half the time. Job is done but employee finishes tasks too quickly. This is why a lot of people "pretend to work" so they don't get more tasks handed to them.

[-]

WTFisaCelsius@reddit

If it's a meaningless desk job, and no one is affected by it, play all the games you want.

But if it's a situation where doing less work forces your coworkers to do more, I'm not above telling the manager (and you) that you're being a lazy peice of shit. I fucking hate coworkers who make my job harder than it needs to be.

[-]

anchovyenthusiast@reddit

Caged

[-]

shangumdee@reddit

Caged and buck broken.

[-]

WTFisaCelsius@reddit

Yes. We are all caged in here together. It sucks equally for everyone. But if we all do our share of the work, it will make things easier on everyone, and we might even get to go home early.

My job is very physical. By the time I get off I am sweaty, sore, and worn out. We work in group of 3, so if one of us is being lazy, the other 2 are putting in 50% more work, and that fucking sucks piss out of the balls of christ.

I just recently lost my shit on a lazy coworkers lol. He was still fairly new, but it only took me a few weeks to realize how damn lazy he was. Never doing what he was supposed to be doing, would take as many breaks as he felt like, would show up late and leave early, no-call-no-showed twice. Finally, like 3 weeks in, he decides he need to leave early for like the 6th time, and I fucking snapped on him. I feel bad, because some of the shit I said was truly harsh, but god damn he needed to hear it. He got fired the next day and I got a warning from the manager to "never talk to a coworker like that again" lol

if you can play games at work without negatively affecting your company it means they don’t need you at all.
