Or… find a job that values your time appropriately so you can just chill a day or two a week.
I’m so tired of the race to make the rich richer work cult
It will set you apart. People will think of you as ‘that maniac with no life’.
I work 4 hours on Sundays but get paid for those hours as if I was working the whole day. I have Wednesday off instead which makes grocery shopping much more enjoyable because the supermarket is near empty during off peak hours
This is dumb. But just to talk corpo for a bit (because that is the reality for many of us): early in your career, putting in extra study time (or just making time on the clock if possible) will give you a leg up for certain kinds of white collar work. Just because you’ll know more.
But doing work on weekends will set you apart as a damned sucker who can be used by others to make career moves. So do that if you want to feel someone’s pump in your eye socket as they trample you to reach for their dream job.
You’re never going to get promoted to an easier job if you’ve proven you can build like 2x more widgets than your co-workers.
You’ll get to a better job by showing up with your co-workers to the boss’ house and asking nicely.
I’m lucky enough with my position that we have pretty well defined pay bands that mention our levels of knowledge, easily identifiable systems and managers that are basically expected to pay us to those bands when our knowledge increases. The one thing we don’t have is enough time to effectively skill people up past a certain point. If you can spare the time, you basically will get promoted. We also have a lovely flex time system - work whenever between 7-6:30 as long as you hit 36 hours a week over 3 months, never heard of any pressure to come in early or anything like that with it either.
I love transparent / open books, and I bring it up at every company I join, but unfortunately I don’t know of any local employers that do this, outside of big institutions or tiny cooperatives. But I guess I can just keep looking on the remote job market.
Your job sounds very human! I’m happy with my set up as well. We don’t have a Clock so to speak, so as long as you’re available, make meetings on time, and get your tasks done, no one cares how you do it.
“Multifamily syndicator” seems like a euphemism for paying child support and alimony.
Though the reality is its when a group of investors become a landlord for a duplex. And with “$50 million in assets raised” it appears this guy convinced people to invest in a row of L.A. duplexes.
What a champ. A real market maker.
It’s a real estate thing.
Yes if I was self employed I’d do that but not for a company.
how to make money:
own property
charge poor people half their salary
???
write a blog telling poor people to work more
Don’t forget this step:
write a book on how the poor can get rich like you (by selling your book to other suckers)
weekend
4 am
bitch i go to sleep at 4 am during weekends
Just decide not to sleep! More money easy! Who needs sleep anyways? /s
It WILL set you apart
As being a gullible schmuck who takes advice from opportunist dumb fucks.
How’s about you take a long walk off a short pier, pal.
Does this person think working shifts are just magic? You show up at 4am on a Saturday unscheduled and they just pay you with no complaint? People just get as much unauthorized overtime as they want?
I understand that’s not the kind of work he’s suggesting, but it is the kind of work that the vast majority of us do. Stop trying to normalize the hustle. We need to go back to RESPECT for the 9-5 working person and pay them enough to have comfortable lives
Oh please. Those are rookie numbers.
If you snort some coke you can get 23 hours in a day.
It WILL set you apart.
“Oh that’s Ralph, he’s a coke addict and probably only has 6 months to live, best to avoid him at all costs.”
It 👏 WILL 👏 set 👏 you 👏 apart 👏 . 👏
“If you work for part of the day you still get the day off” is certainly an…interesting perspective.
Can we name and shame? I won’t go on twitter or whatever it’s called today, but I would love to troll and harass this guy on Mastodon.
What makes you think a professional bootlicker like him would even know about FOSS social media? He probably makes fun of FOSS every chance he gets
There are not many multifamily syndicators with 50 million raised. You will find if you search.
Yeah but that’s only viable if you’re in real estate because those guys barely do any work anyway.
But, but if you never leave work, imagine…
