Office Jobs Actually Suck… — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00You know, growing up, I always thought getting a real job was the finish line. Like,
- 0:04that's it. You made it. Congratulations. Here's your desk and your 401k, whatever
- 0:08that is. And now life just works itself out. But alas, I was brainwashed. Brainwashed by
- 0:14on TikTok who glorify the [ __ ] out of this life. How come nobody said anything about the
- 0:18corporate jargon and the 3* 3 cm pizza that's supposed to make up for a missing bonus? So,
- 0:24today we're going over exactly why corporate life probably sucks. First things first,
- 0:28the suffering starts way before you even step foot in the office. Cuz to get a job,
- 0:32you need to apply. Bro, why is applying for a job basically a part-time job in itself? Are you a
- 0:37Mexican? No. How about Hispanic? No. Military? No. Are you Go ahead and hand over the resume.
- 0:44Let the AI have its way with it. All right. Now, go to the next page and enter all the information
- 0:48you just gave us manually. Zero years of experience. Don't you know this is entry- level,
- 0:52kid? The clanker already rejected you, by the way. It's just waiting for you to hit submit.
- 0:57You sure you're not Mexican? Never committed a crime? Explain it in detail. No. You got
- 1:01any felonies? Explain it in detail. No. You ever killed a man? Explain it in. What race are you?
- 1:07Black, white, Asian, or a secret fourth thing? Mexican, perhaps? You got to tailor your resume
- 1:12for every single application down to the last minute detail. You got to write a cover letter,
- 1:16which let's be for real, nobody's reading that [ __ ] Pouring your heart out on why you're so
- 1:20passionate about a mid-level logistics coordinator position at a company you found out existed 3.4
- 1:264 days ago just for the hiring team to autodelete your resume cuz you lack passion. Passion. There
- 1:30is no vision. There is no aggression. There is no mindset. Oh. Oh. Oh, you have all those things.
- 1:36Oh well. Um, you know, the manager's daughter just turned 18, so sorry. Sorry. Anyway, basically me.
- 1:44I'm supposed to convince a stranger I'm passionate about supply chain optimization to pay my rent.
- 1:49And then after you send like 50 applications into the void, if you're lucky, you'll get a response.
- 1:54Unfortunately, after you send like 300 applications into the void, if you're lucky,
- 1:58you'll get a response. First is an automated email confirming they received your application, like,
- 2:03"Okay, cool, man. Thanks, Mr. Robot. I already knew that. I was there. I was there." Then weeks
- 2:07of nothingness until randomly you finally get a call for a screening interview with somebody
- 2:11in HR who's 100% going to ask you the exact same five questions they got from LinkedIn. What's your
- 2:17greatest weakness? Stop right there. Stop right there, everybody. That is called a trap. That's
- 2:21a trap. Everybody knows this question is fake as you're really supposed to say a weakness that's
- 2:26secretly a strength. Like, oh, uh, I work too hard and I I care too much when your actual greatest
- 2:30weakness is, um, the urge to dismantle someone when they take your food from the share fridge.
- 2:36Anyway, um, let's say you survived the screening call. Now, you got to do round two and round three
- 2:41and round four and round five for a job that pays 55 thaw a year. In this economy, that'll get you
- 2:47a, drum roll, please, a studio apartment. Enjoy NFL Sunday while someone takes a [ __ ] in your
- 2:55living room. Anyway, four separate interviews. One of them will be a random culture fit
- 2:58question where they ask you a weird hypothetical question like, "If you were a kitchen utensil,
- 3:03what would you be and why?" Mhm. Mhm. What in the everlasting are you talking about? Asking
- 3:08these weirdass questions just for you to spend most of your time on Excel. And on top of that,
- 3:12sometimes they hit you with the unpaid assignment. just do this little two-hour project for me real
- 3:16quick so we can see your skills in action. Is this slavery? Am I being slaved away right now?
- 3:21You want free labor from me before you even decide if you want to pay me for real labor?
- 3:24That's crazy. And they also ask you if you would do this job if you weren't getting paid. I mean,
- 3:28no. That's why I'm applying. But, you know, you got to say yes, master. Of course, master. Yes,
- 3:33master. I do it for the passion. Cuz we all know, you know, landlords won't evict you if you have
- 3:36a passion working for free. Why do you want this job? Well, um, I want this job because I just love
- 3:40helping people. Also, working with others towards a common goal. Nice. Okay. Then you ask me, "Why
- 3:45do I want this job?" I'm like, "I need money." I'm just a very outgoing guy. I also love to take
- 3:50initiative and taking leadership roles. I got gas. You must not know. Take a lot of auto [ __ ] bro.
- 3:55For real. And after all that, you know what you might get in return? Nothing. Just nothing. Yeah.
- 4:00Try sending in a thousand applications next time, buddy. What is the job market like in
- 4:032026? I really wish I knew how to sell crap. But okay, let's say you make it through all that. You
- 4:08actually land a job. Cool. Now, welcome to day one and welcome to HR because that's really where the
- 4:13true corporate experience starts. HR is such an interesting department to me because they present
- 4:18themselves as being there for you. Like they're actually your friends and like they got your
- 4:21back. But bro, HR does not work for you. HR works for the company and that's it. And you going to
- 4:27find out real soon the easy way or the hard way. Their job is to eliminate threats to the company.
- 4:33So the second you got an actual real problem, an issue with a manager, a genuine complaint
- 4:37about something unfair happening, you go to HR expecting support. Hell no. They'll say, "Oh,
- 4:41we'll look into it." And somehow someway 6 months later, nothing changed. But now everybody in the
- 4:46office mysteriously knows what you said in that confidential meeting. Negative 80 team chemistry.
- 4:51Bring it up again and they might bestow upon you a present, a brown box. Enjoy. That's wild to me.
- 4:56You're supposed to trust this apartment with your most sensitive workplace issues. and it functions
- 5:00more like a PR firm for the company than an actual support system for employees. Hi, I work in HR.
- 5:05We're a family. I fired three family members this week. I'm not your friend. I'm the company's
- 5:10lawyer in a cardigan. I don't solve problems. I make sure the company doesn't get sued for them.
- 5:15You came to me with a complaint. Now you're both under investigation. But you wouldn't think that
- 5:19the way HR runs you through hours, literally hours of mandatory training videos with a cartoon mascot
- 5:25explaining why sexual harassment is bad. Like, bro, I know. Damn. Why do I got to sit down while
- 5:31someone tells me why enacting the culling games is going to get me fired? Like, it's pretty much
- 5:34self-explanatory. What they should really put in those videos are like the mini workplace rules
- 5:38these people set. Like, whose parking space is who so I don't get death stared on the first day. And
- 5:42to top it all off, these videos always end with a quiz. A whole quiz. If you were walking through
- 5:46the halls and saw Robert, would you a smack him in the face? Bend him over and throttle his [ __ ] C
- 5:52flinch at him, or D greet him, G man, I wonder which one. All of the above. And speaking of
- 5:58things that make corporate life miserable, let's talk about the buzzword slop, cuz [ __ ] like this
- 6:01is just exhausting. Corporate people, for the life of them, will not speak like normal human beings.
- 6:07They speak like aliens trying to fit in with society. Everything's got to be dressed up in some
- 6:11vague, meaningless phrase that sounds important, but says absolutely nothing. Every word that comes
- 6:16out of their mouth needs to engage and put more fire into the conversation or they'll be having
- 6:20a chat with Rebecca after the Zoom call. Let's circle back on this. Let's take this offline. I
- 6:25don't have the bandwidth for this right now. What does this mean, bro? What does that even mean?
- 6:29Don't tell me to keep paying your mortgage, you're forced to behave like a bot. Let's touch base. We
- 6:33need to leverage our synergies to move the needle on this initiative. I don't even believe that the
- 6:37dudes who say these things even know what they're doing. They smart though, you know,
- 6:40like if they speak vaguely enough, you can never really be held accountable for not doing anything
- 6:44cuz technically you did circle back and you did touch base even if absolutely zero progress was
- 6:48made. And I just feel for the poor poor intern that has to sit through all of this. Oh. Oh,
- 6:54that's me. As some of y'all know or might not know, I'm doing engineering. So, my dumb ass
- 6:58had to get a summer internship. I can't say the company for obvious reasons. Just know it's the
- 7:03uh red and white social media platform used to discover, save, and organize digital ideas. Uh
- 7:09connect the dots. Anyway, for some reason, it was in person, but we still had these stupid ass Zoom
- 7:13calls where people who probably make 500K plus a year get to waste their time spewing BS for
- 7:1945 minutes. I kid you not, unless you've seen firsthand, you will never understand. These
- 7:24Tik Toks don't do it justice cuz it's not just 60 seconds. It's like 45 minutes non-stop of
- 7:30them just spewing nonsense. And after that, they expect you to know what they were talking about.
- 7:34[ __ ] was so bad I started taking YouTube more seriously doing weekly uploads and [ __ ] I said,
- 7:38"Fuh no, I ain't doing that [ __ ] for the rest of my life. Hell no. Hell no." Everyone see my
- 7:41screen? Great. Let's kick things off with a word from our CEO. Hey there, everybody. My name is
- 7:46Rick Rutled. I make five times your salary and do half the work. and I'm here to tell you why
- 7:49you don't deserve to work from home. So, as you can see on this graph, employee satisfaction and
- 7:53getting [ __ ] done are directly at odds with one another. And as your corporate overlords, we tend
- 7:57to lean towards getting [ __ ] done. We took it upon ourselves to study a local cattle operation
- 8:01to see how they manage their livestock. And what we discovered was that the most efficient method
- 8:05is to pack as many animals as possible into as tight a space as you can. And that's why we'll be
- 8:09giving each of you your very own cubicle. Not to mention this earlier, but nobody's getting a bonus
- 8:13this year. Sayanara. And don't even get me started on premeating. Yes. Yes, you heard that right.
- 8:19There's a meeting before the meeting. I don't think you know what a bad day is. A bad day is,
- 8:27but you going to find out. Yeah, that's a real thing that happens in corporate life. You
- 8:30got to have a meeting to prep for the actual meeting so the actual meeting goes smoothly,
- 8:34which if you think about it means the whole point of having an efficient meeting got defeated by
- 8:38needing two meetings just to have one productive conversation. And then after the real meeting
- 8:42happens, guess what? They send a follow-up email recapping everything that was already
- 8:46said in the meeting. So now you got a meeting that could have been an email plus an email
- 8:50recapping the meeting that could have replaced the meeting in the first place. Just a nasty, nasty,
- 8:54nasty waste of time and money. And now let's talk about the propaganda. This fake ass happiness
- 8:58cuz I can't lie. This got me. It actually got me. These Tik Toks glorifying this life have probably
- 9:03done more damage to society than the J word. What do you mean I can't go into my car and have a
- 9:06Nikico avocado style mukbang for an hour without getting terminated? What? What? What do you mean
- 9:11I can't be flirty with co-workers without going to jail? What the? Another propaganda piece corporate
- 9:15culture demands is this constant unrelenting positivity. No matter what's actually happening,
- 9:20company just did layoffs. We're so excited for this new chapter. Streamlined efficiency. Bro,
- 9:25are homeless. Why do these company emails always have so much enthusiasm for people going on food
- 9:30stamps and that fake plaster on positivity gets exhausting real fast? Cuz you're not allowed to
- 9:35just be honestly tired at work. You got to perform enthusiasm. You ought to act like you're thrilled
- 9:39to be there doing a task even though you would much rather blow your [ __ ] smooth off. Cuz if
- 9:43you don't perform that enthusiasm convincingly enough, suddenly you're the one with a bad
- 9:47attitude. And now Rebecca would again like to have a conversation with you after the Zoom call. Oh,
- 9:51and when this fake positivity seems to not be working, you know how the company fixes it? A
- 9:56pizza party. Yes. Ah, yes. The optional, but not really. Unless you want that brown box a
- 10:01pizza party. Just what we need. Company misses a huge deadline. Employees pulled overtime for
- 10:06a week straight. Morale is at an all-time low. And how does leadership decide to fix it? Pizza
- 10:10in the break room on a random Thursday. Like a couple boxes of cheap cardboard pizza are going
- 10:14to erase weeks of unpaid extra hours and stress. And they have the audacity, the audacity to frame
- 10:19it like this huge generous gesture, too. Like as a thank you for all your hard work this quarter.
- 10:24We're providing pizza in the break room from 12 to 1. Bro, you want to thank us? Give me
- 10:31a raise. Give me money. Give me money. I would have preferred you just throw the coins you used
- 10:36on this slop at us instead like we're peasants. Or just give us better hours. Anything. Give us
- 10:41actual tangible compensation for the hard work. Not two slices of lukewarm pepperoni pizza that
- 10:46we got to eat standing up cuz sitting down means you're not engaging with the get together and
- 10:50lowering team morale. And what pisses me off is that some companies genuinely think this
- 10:54works. They actually think a pizza party is an acceptable substitute for real appreciation. And
- 10:58they'll bring it up in the next town hall or in the next meeting like they just did this generous
- 11:02act of corporate kindness. We really believe in taking care of our team. Remember what we did,
- 11:06guys? Remember that pizza party? Remember that, guys? And let's not forget the office layout,
- 11:10either. Cuz things like this just make me wonder if companies just want their employees to be
- 11:14in hell at all times while on the clock. At some point, somebody in a leadership meeting
- 11:18decided that removing all the walls and all the privacy, all the personal space would somehow
- 11:23boost collaboration and innovation. when really all they did was create an environment where you
- 11:27can't concentrate for more than 5 minutes without somebody walking past your desk or somebody having
- 11:31a loud ass phone call two feet away from you or somebody's keyboard clacking so aggressively you
- 11:36start questioning if that 401k is really worth it. There's no privacy for anything. You can't even
- 11:40have a normal quiet conversation without the whole floor hearing it. If they could, they'd build a
- 11:43toilet in public because it boosts employee engagement asking someone else for more TP.
- 11:47You can't take a personal call without everybody around you knowing your business. And somehow
- 11:51despite all this nonsense, you're still expected to produce deep focus highquality work. Like the
- 11:56environment itself isn't actively working against you the entire day. And then there's this thing
- 12:00called hot desking where you don't even get your own permanent desk anymore or PC. You you just got
- 12:04to find whatever spot is open that day. Like are you are you are you serious? Is this a workplace?
- 12:09Real [ __ ] Is this a workplace? This some [ __ ] you do in high school. Also, we got to talk about
- 12:12business casual for a second. Um what is business casual, you ask? I don't know. Don't look at me.
- 12:17Is it a polo? Is it a blazer with jeans? I feel like every single office seems to interpret this
- 12:22phrase completely differently. Cuz during my internship across the street was the red, white,
- 12:26and gold bank. And they would be wearing the most craziest, ludicrous fashion I've ever had the
- 12:32misfortune of seeing. I mean, Supreme Headbands. Come on, bro. Is Is this a good first impression?
- 12:37People spend way too much energy deciphering what they'll wear to work because for some reason,
- 12:41corporate culture insists on this performance of professionalism through clothing. Like looking a
- 12:45certain way somehow correlates to the actual quality of your work. in high school because
- 12:49with swag were always the ones that did no work. So, I don't get their point. It's just another
- 12:52layer of unnecessary pressure stacked on top of everything else you already got to manage before
- 12:579 in the morning. But like I said in the beginning of the video, I don't think you know what a bad
- 13:00day is cuz corporate email culture is genuinely a unique type of tom foolery. I mean, it's basically
- 13:06chess. You ever notice how every email at work has to be wrapped in such unnecessary politeness that
- 13:11the actual message gets buried underneath it? Uh, hope this email finds you well. Okay, so I'm just
- 13:15going to skim through that just to be hit with just fall in love on my previous email sent with
- 13:19just enough passive aggressiveness to let you know that they are annoyed you didn't respond
- 13:22within 4 hours but not enough to actually say um [ __ ] you didn't respond please respond and
- 13:27then there's the dreaded per my last email which I assume most corporate adults know is corporate
- 13:32code for read. You clearly didn't read what I sent you the first time and I'm mad about it.
- 13:36I see you playing unblocked games on my computer 30 ft away from me and I really want to walk up
- 13:40to you and gouge your eyeballs in but I got to stay professional so I'm hiding my frustration
- 13:45behind three polite sounding words and you got to respond nicely too matching that same fake ass
- 13:49energy unless you want to be forwarded to Rebecca again. Will you try something new? Um Jay, any
- 13:53ideas for like improving our reach? Yeah, we could reach for these nuts. Leverage this opportunity,
- 13:56right? So like uh any any any thoughts? No, not really. Y'all I don't think conversion rate is
- 14:00a problem. I think we really need work on our target audience. Target this dick. Let's take
- 14:03time to kind of identify every customer touch point. That's a dick. Yeah. Yeah, Cooper, you
- 14:07make a good point. Okay. Well, we'll start back to that. I also want to talk about code switching cuz
- 14:10depending on what race you are or actually not really nowadays, but depending on where you're
- 14:14from, this will actually be the death of you. You right now sitting at home thinking this is easy,
- 14:19you don't realize how many times you actually say some [ __ ] or swear or say slurs without
- 14:23realizing. I didn't know how much I swore until I started that [ __ ] ass internship and YouTube.
- 14:27It's exhausting. You basically have to become a bot the second you walk in through those office
- 14:31doors. Having to perform a slightly different version of yourself for 8 n hours a day and then
- 14:36switch back the second you walk out them doors and get back to your actual life would probably be
- 14:40dangerous for a couple years. Like after a couple years it would probably be dangerous cuz give it
- 14:45a few years and you might talk like how you talk at work outside of work for the rest of your life.
- 14:49Like you might get stuck talking like that and then you're actually cooked. Let's talk about
- 14:52performance reviews cuz these things just don't work to be honest. Unless you work for Google,
- 14:55you know, if you work for them, you'll actually get a raise out of this. For most people, you sit
- 14:59down once a year, sometimes twice, and you got to somehow summarize an entire year of your work into
- 15:04vague categories like exceeds expectations, meets expectations, needs improvement. And half the
- 15:09time, these ratings feel completely disconnected from your actual performance. Cuz it's not really
- 15:13about how hard you work or how much value you added. It's about budget. Companies only got
- 15:17so much money allocated for raises. So even if you crush every single goal they set for you,
- 15:21sometimes you still get raided meets expectations because giving everybody exceeds expectations
- 15:25would mean giving out more raises and the boss's son losing out on free Christmas money. You know,
- 15:30at most places nowadays, they got unlimited PTO. And this one's a trap, too. Sounds amazing
- 15:35on paper, right? Unlimited vacation, take off whenever you want, right? But it's all again
- 15:39jutsu. It's all againu cuz I dare you to actually take one of those days off. I dare you. Come on,
- 15:44do it. I dare you. You might come back to Rebecca sitting on your seat like a super villain. You'll
- 15:49get to see HR in person. In practice, most people with unlimited PTO end up taking less
- 15:54time off than people with a set number of days. Cuz if there's a set number, there's a use it
- 15:58or lose it mentality. So people actually take their a loted time. But when it's unlimited,
- 16:02there's this like unspoken rule, this vague guilt trip built right into the policy where taking too
- 16:06much time off makes you seem like a lazy bum, not a team player. You're not hungry enough. So
- 16:10people end up barely taking any time off while the company gets to avoid paying out on unused
- 16:14vacation days when somebody quits, which they legally have to do under a normal PTO system. The
- 16:18greed is immaculate. And another thing too, the fact that for some companies it's a requirement
- 16:23to get LinkedIn is truly a human rights violation. Every single post on that godforsaken platform is
- 16:29either somebody humble bragging about a promotion the most snarky way possible or somebody turning
- 16:34a completely mundane life event into some deep profound leadership lesson. I got cut
- 16:38off in traffic today this morning. And you know, it taught me something powerful about
- 16:41patience in the workplace. Hey, hey, hey, [ __ ] Nobody asked. My wife left me and took the kids,
- 16:45but I look forward to pivoting and scaling my personal brand. Career tip: Never take PTO and
- 16:50always work through lunch. Your boss will notice and give you a big raise. As with gratitude to
- 16:54share that I've been laid off. I want to thank my company and co-workers for all the amazing
- 16:57memories. Unpopular opinion. Commuting to the office is so much better than working from home.
- 17:01There's just nothing like circling back in person and feeling that sweet synergy with your coworker.
- 17:07These bots are probably what these mandatory team building exercises are targeted towards. And the
- 17:12reason these are so annoying is because it's just so forced. Nobody builds genuine connections being
- 17:16told on a random Tuesday afternoon that you and your co-workers got to fall backwards and trust
- 17:20each other to catch you or spend an hour building a tower out of spaghetti and marshmallows to
- 17:25represent innovative thinking. Bro, half these people don't even want to be friends with each
- 17:29other outside of work and now you're forcing them into an escape room together. Like that's
- 17:33magically going to fix communication issues that have existed for eons and it's always scheduled
- 17:37at the worst humanly possible time to like right when everybody's actually got work piling up cuz
- 17:42you know this is a workplace but nah stop whatever the [ __ ] you're doing and go do trust falls in
- 17:46a conference room for 30 minutes straight. Oh oh oh and company culture being used as a replacement
- 17:51for actual tangible benefits. He could only have gotten that idea from Benjamin Netanyahu.
- 17:56Companies love love love to talk about culture. We got a great culture here. Culture fit is so
- 18:02important to us. And what that actually translates to in real time is we can't pay you as much as our
- 18:07competitors. But uh hey, we got a ping- pong table in the break room. Bro, I don't want a ping- pong
- 18:11table. I want a livable wage. I don't want to be a slave. I don't want a casual Friday where
- 18:15I'm allowed to wear jeans. How about not being a slave? Companies have gotten so good at replacing
- 18:20real meaningful investments in their employees with cheap surface level perks that look good in
- 18:24a recruitment video but do absolutely nothing to improve people's actual lives. free snacks in the
- 18:29break room, bean back chairs, a wellness Wednesday where they send you an email suggesting you take a
- 18:34walk like, "Wow, man. Thanks. This will definitely solve my crippling depression." None of that
- 18:38actually addresses the root causes of burnout or fixes understaffing or fixes unrealistic
- 18:43deadlines. It's all again jutsu. Moa should have won. And actually works at distracting people,
- 18:47too. I mean, at least for the first two months from how little they're actually getting
- 18:50compensated for what they give the company. You can give a company 40, 50, sometimes 60 hours a
- 18:55week of your actual life time you're never getting back. And in exchange, they give you a foosball
- 19:00table and a company hoodie. And in exchange, I walk in there with an AK-47. Resist. Resist.
- 19:04Resist the urge to walk into your boss's office with an AK-47 and just continue working for free
- 19:10for 40 years. Hit me. Hit me. Hit me. I love I live for this type of [ __ ] But let me know.
- 19:18Hit me. Hit me. Hit me. I knew it. Hit me. Hit me. Hit me. Hit me. Get up. Ain't nobody shooting at
- 19:24y'all. Get up. Get up. Nobody shooting at y'all. Nobody shooting at y'all. Get up. Shoot me though.
- 19:30Shoot me. Homies talk about being like a family but failed to realize families won't fire you the
- 19:35second quarterly numbers dip. You know, families won't lay you off over an email on a random
- 19:39Tuesday morning while simultaneously posting on social media about record-breaking profits
- 19:44the same day. Real families don't operate like that. So, when a company calls itself a family,
- 19:48what they really mean is, uh, we want the loyalty and emotional labor you'll give an actual family
- 19:53without any of the actual protection or security that comes with being in one. Families won't
- 19:56replace you with AI and give you UBI for eternity. That's all I'm saying. We are cooked. If there's
- 20:01a lesson buried somewhere in all this yap is that corporate companies, generally speaking, are not
- 20:04designed around your well-being. They couldn't give two about you, they'll sell your soul for
