How do you coordinate job and vidya?

How do you coordinate job and vidya?

You tell your boss you can't work late on raid night.

Get your boss to join your guild

>not being the somebody else who everyone else works for
plebs

i don't really

i basically only binge play vidya once in awhile anymore outside of portable shit which I only play because I'm stuck on public transport 2 hours a day.

I just bring my handhelds to the cubicle and play when I got no customers.

>tfw self employed
life is good, anons. work load is minimal, employees are reliable, and vidya time is abundant

>become a wage slave
>looking forward to weekends like a drug addict

>tfw work making videogames
>have a lot of fun doing so, even if it's tiresome
>play my game at the end of the day happy with my progress

I wish I was smart enough to be an entrepreneur

>mfw it's these kinds of people that will make the Switch a success

hate to break it to you but that game sucks and another game is superior

>tfw 25 & work part time job but still tired as fuck and wish I had more time for activities like vidya and guitar and traveling etc

I don't get how people do it. The human body is not meant to work a full time job. It shouldn't be possible. And the one time I did it I started noticeably ageing.

>be grateful for the opportunity to do so?

Because if you didn't, you're forced to grow your own food and raise cattle for 14 hours a day, otherwise you fucking DIE. Which, I guess, for some people is okay, because they enjoy that stuff, but the vast majority do not.

>How do you coordinate job and vidya?

I don't. I have less time now to play games. But not a single new game has peaked my interest these days, so it's probably a good thing. I mostly go back and play older classics, like RCT and SC4.

Shit bait thread, but I'm bored as fuck.

Bukowski is a hack, an addict and a lush.

>get up at 3:30am
>shower, dress, and go to work till 1
>come home
>vidya till 9 or 10, maybe 11 if it's good vidya

Like that

But he's not wrong.

>4.5 hours of sleep

By getting a good job.

I practically run a storage facility thats 5 minutes away from me. I live 5 minutes away so I show up whenever I want because I have two lackeys who work under me, and I work for the owner, who rarely, if ever,shows up. If I don't feel like showing up for a day, I don't. My lackeys don't mind cause they like having more hours. I work between 20-30 hours a week on average and get paid $20/hour because I feel like it. It's pretty nice.

Remember Sup Forums it's not about what you know, it's who you know. I've known people in very high positions who didn't know jack shit about anything.

my only goal in life is to sniff chloe

Because the alternative is either to die from starvation and homelessness or begin a rural life where you will have to be awakened by a cuckoo even earlier than 6 am to work on the fields from morning to dawn.

Hours per week friendo?

Because I finish my shift by 11AM and have the rest of the day free to live in moderate comfort and indulge in video games to my hearts content.

fat ugly whale, even if it's photoshopped

I get off work at 5, make and eat dinner when I get home, and play maybe for an hour or so before bed.

Only during the weekdays, though. Weekends I play for hours at a time.

That's a lot of effort though, I'd rather just shut my brain off when I'm at work. I'm fine with other aspects of life being fulfilling and work just being a way to sustain

...

I'm a baker, it doesn't take tons of energy. Plus once I get going I'm good

Beats being naked in woods, riddled with parasites, starving and fearing for my life every waking moment I guess

You're really hurting your body by not getting enough sleep

It can lead to an earlier onset of dementia and a slew of other health problems.

>be me
>employed full time
>too tired for vidya after work
>days off no motivation to play

Help me

play good video games instead of bad ones. Or play an old one you really liked that you haven't played in awhile.

You don't need to be smart, you need to be lucky enough to be born with the means to do so

>Sup Forums
>job
pick one. I've been on NEETbux since 2005 when I turned 21. Sup Forums is a website for NEETs and lolicons only, so nobody should have any sort of job.

This so fucking much.

I worked like a dog to get the job I have now. A few months into it and I'm realizing that all that work bought me was an even more stressful and unfulfilled existence. What the fuck is it all for.

>sleep 7 hours
>job 9 hours including commute
>8 hours left for 'maintenance' and videogames
>weekends are mostly free

Wake up at 7am.
Get to work for 9am.
Finish work at 5pm.
Get home for 6:30pm.

That still leaves 4 1/2 hours if you want 8 hours sleep.

I know, the 11 o'clock bed times are rare though. So it's not super bad

Being a business owner is like twice the work of being an employee or else your ship sinks and you are a tens of thousands of dollars in debt.

Sometimes that happens anyway.

Work 5am-1pm, game/read/internet 3-5/6, bed by 8/9.

Exactly. People who whine about this are usually cucks who can't handle a relatively easy life.

Most people in their 20s work crazy ass hours for at least one job. When I was active duty we had to be at work by 5, so you were up by 4, but you didn't get off duty until about 7-8.

So, even if you optimized your time and went straight to bed, you weren't getting 8 hours, and considering you weren't' going to just work/sleep, you more realistically got like 3 or 4.

My roommate and I got to the point where every night we downed a 6 pack each for a little while.

>being a neet
Absolutely pathetic. If you can't hold a job, learn how to tie a noose.

>tfw I bake bread and cakes for work colleagues and bask in the warm glow of their gratitude

I don't think I could do it for a living though

>The human body is not meant to work a full time job. It shouldn't be possible.
Your ancestors spent 24/7 farming and trying to survive. You can do 8 hours a day.

>most people in their 20s are retards
You could've just left it at that, sleeping 4 hours a day is no way to live

this
>live with roommate
>raid mon/tues/weds
>say I'm available to work late thurs/fri but can't on mon/tues/weds because I cook for both of us
>work thinks I'm some nice person now and won't ask for a second of overtime for me

Work day, play evening. But games have been boring me lately, so it's no loss.
I am almost 30, is it the age or have games just gotten less interesting?

I work 9 hour days with every other friday off. I have time to have a wife, play video games, exercise, and picked up a martial arts class a month or so ago. Just fill your days up and don't stop to sit down dude.

Yeah he is.

Wat job do you do?

you guys are like little babies. I work 45 hours a week not even counting the commute and that is normal. people in japan work 60 hour work weeks typically or more.

it's called stop being lazy and learn how to pace yourself. don't go into the job and work your ABSOLUTE hardest 100% of the time or yeah, you'll burn out.

It's all science and formulas really. Once you get a knack for eye balling stuff or being able to tell when dough or batter needs more x, or less y, you can just automate yourself

It's not every day, it's a sometimes thing for me, chill man.

Yo, i'm , we Baker-bois 5lyfe, nig!

Exactly. Unlimited free time isn't given to most people because they waste precious free time they already have.

so now instead of having misery inflicted on you, you're inflicting it on others.

>stop being lazy and quit working so hard
Great advice there my dude.

>muh memes

Shieeeeet man, you guys mainly cakes or like pastries and breads?

Rules of nature.

live close to work and you wont have to fight traffic, also i dont eat breakfast and I shit in the shower

During the week I work.

Over the weekends I play vidya.

They spill over a tiny bit sometimes, but that's basically how it works.

i work from home so basically i just game all day because fuck doing work

stop being lazy by saying "uguuu I work too long" but work smarter. don't do the opposite by going "ok going to GO MADMAN" and push yourself like crazy. learn how to go at your own pace and only go into rush mode during the rare few times your job requires it.

Bagel shop mostly, muffins and cookies too.

You can make 20-30k a year just removing viruses from computers. It's stupid easy and you only have to work maybe 20 hours a week.

Being a wage slave is morally wrong.
Leeching off wage slaves is perfectly fine.

>I shit in the shower

I'm a network marketer, I can play vidya whenever I want.

>all these non-neets
times have changed
I'm actually back in college at 27 y/o and pretty much destined to become a neet again, you guys were supposed to be similar failures and not make me feel depressed

The problem of this philosophy is that it provides no proper alternative. The truth is that people have to work to keep production up. There is no good replacement for factory workers and office workers until robots automate shit.

Why not play vidya for living like everyone else?

I recently got fired so I have more free time than I know what to do with.

I've been sleeping a lot more than anything else

I can cope with the work, it's just the realisation that I'm giving away the healthiest years of my life to some shitty company I don't give a fuck about. Working 60 hours isn't something to be admired it's a pathetic existence.

I feel you.
Could work full time but fucking college.
Aunt suggests that I should stay in school and get masters as well but fuck me sideways, I hate the report making.

So instead of being a slave, you're a leech. What a life.

Breads and pastries and some breakfast shit in the morning. I'm actually really surprised to see another baker here

>You guys are shit, look at me, I spend my life alternating between working and sleeping

It's not something to brag about

thats what our bodies adapted and evolved to do though
everything from the way our brains are wired to our skeleton and muscles.

we didnt evolve to sit at a desk and stare at a screen.
its unhealthy.

and yes i'm aware of the irony of saying so on a video games board. but i think any one of us would readily admit long gaming sessions are just as unhealthy. we do it anyway because it at least stimulates our minds.

I work for a vidya game company, so every mid-day break we play board games/tabletop.
Coming home I play various online multiplayer games with my gf, eat while watching movies/series and then read/play again or work on personal projects.
Easy life.

If it helps, I have a job but no friends or social life.

>The problem of this philosophy is that it provides no proper alternative.

It's almost like they're whining huh.

>be 28 years old, married and full-time job
>sometimes wish to become a NEET again but be afraid to drag my own family into poverty

I view life as a distraction. Its just something I have to do when not playing video games which I guess is an escape from reality for me. I hate this life so much. The only thing that stops me from offing myself is the fact that my pops is still alive and it would hurt him to lose me.

Once he's gone. I'll have no reason not to kill myself

Doesn't help that Ps4 has no gaems

what's that like? I heard most companies it sucks because you're only hired contract-to-contract and you can have horribly long work weeks.

Nigger a central banker could be shitposting here and it would not surprise me.

I was basically the same, but I took a semester off and felt even worse about being a burden. So I got the first job that'd take me and started working around. It's still hard to get out of bed and be normal, I have constant headaches now.

You should have married at like 35 because then it isn't so bad if you realize you fucked up.

the fuck do memes have anything to do with that?

moot himself said both of those things i mentioned in my post in the 2005 otakon panel.

>vidya in my free time
Golly, that was hard.

>What's wrong with you lazy niggers? Japan the country with the absolute most stressful, overworked, and unhealthy work culture in the entire world does it, why can't you?

being in school is preferable to working a shitty dead-end 9 to 5
at least you have hope
at least you've put off facing the crushing despair for a little while

Often a symptom of depression is you stop enjoying things you love. Not trying to say you're depressed, but that's another option.

>work smarter not harder
you sound like a character from a dilbert strip

You're not missing much. Sure I make more money than autismbux but I no longer have anything I care to spend it on, and I have to spend at least 8 hours a day with a bunch of people I fucking hate doing work I have no interest in.

This

The only mix of work and gaming is to sleep less on work nights or game less

It sucks

>itt wagecucks

Wow, user, it's almost like you get the entire fucking point.

You should cut down to 40, man. What is so admirable about working an office job 60 hours a week?

Except I don't regret being married because waking up next to the person you really love every morning is the most wonderful thing in the day.
