news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

My gf basically does 3-4 hours of work a day including meetings and then literally naps or watches TV all day. She's taught herself how to crochet and she's done like half a cardigan in a week because she has so much down time
Boy i sure fucking wish I could get a gig like that. Instead i'm paid 2/3rds as much to sweat my dick, balls and ass off in a kitchen, standing all day, one unpaid break that i'm forced to take. 30 minute commute each way.
I can't even look for work like that because even if I could find a job i couldn't pass a drug test. I want endless, hell like torment for the people responsible for marijuana drug tests precluding people from employment in fucking 2025
they drug test for kitchen work now? fuck me when i was young restaurant work was the best place to find a drug dealer and half the people were high on the job wtf happened
They probably do test at some places but no i meant i can't look for work-from-home work because of it. And although I love cooking for people, commuting sucks, not being in control of my environment sucks (the A/C breaks all the time, the school Im at apparently has literally only 2 maintenance guys), putting on clothes sucks. I'm just insanely jealous of my partner, her biggest complaints are just that her coworkers do dumb shit and she's frequently bored. She also gets bonuses and shit, i'm staggered by how jealous i am
I think the only way I could work from home is if I manage to not smoke weed for 3-4 months (i'll want to die because i'll be unable to sleep and even if weed doesn't always put me to sleep it at least helps me not feel like i'm sitting in bed uncomfortable trapped inside my own thoughts) and i manage to find something that doesn't care I have 0 on paper office worker qualifications, or if I do some streamer shit but let's be real, I'm not knowledgeable enough to teach anybody cooking info they couldn't get elsewhere and while I'm ok looking i'm not charismatic and i'm an asshole, i'm not getting that hasan piker mega fan base even if i could tolerate the public scrutiny (i couldn't)
Get your partner to get you some entryish level office role
