Date: May 22nd, 2025 12:45 PM Author: \'\'\"\'\'\'\"\'\'\'\"\' i turned off my timer if I was just chatting with coworkers, browsing the internet for personal stuff, using the restroom.
also, if I accidentally left my timer running when I wasn't working, I subtracted the excess time based on my rough estimate.
under this system, the most i ever billed in a month was 230, and that was absolutely hellish. |

Date: May 22nd, 2025 1:17 PM Author: i gave my cousin head Any time I've been honest I've been passed up or fired
When applying I'd give honest solid resumes all passed up Then I lie even a little bit and they all bite
I tell clients realistic timetables that are still aggressive but reasonable passed or fired eventually
Now I straight up lie
Employment is a satanic system built around forcing u to lie cheat and steal in some sick humiliation ritual
Few ever see the truth about this |

It's all a big ponzi scheme and everyone else is in on it trying not to be caught
Seems like u only get "caught" if u step out of line politically (call out jews etc) or are bottom of the barrel and are essentially a Aztec pyramid blood sacrifice |
