Please give me the tips, tricks and cheatcodes I desire You start by knowing how to IT. This means how to restart a computer, install drivers for a printer, and google something like "Outlook error 0x00023813" and figure out how to click some links and get a solution. Then you get the job. It's not rocket science. Oh, you have to get over your crippling social anxiety and actually apply for a job and do an interview.

Computers do seem easy with the plugging and unplugging depending on the situation. Never used one myself, but I intend to one day.

I don't work very hard or get much done but I'm paid for all the time I'm at work. I don't show up drunk too often but I'm always high at work.

# 1. Pay to get certified, which means you have a piece of paper showing you can do the equivalent of tying your shoes on a computer # 2. Apply somewhere for some 39 hour week 'part time' helpdesk job at a call center # 3. You probably have a bit of pride from actually working for your job, maybe you have previous working relationships and experiences that make you feel somewhat valuable as a human being, go ahead and forget about all of those # 4. Every boss you have probably imagines themselves as the lord of a manor for which you are their serf, and if you act otherwise the lower level ones will make your life hell, so do what they say. If he's gay suck his weiner if he asks. Even if you don't consider yourself gay. Likewise for the other sex, dumpy lady goons. # 5. Stop taking care of yourself, and maintain your 'working man' diet that's entirely inappropriate for sitting at a comptuer from 9-5. # 6. Bathe every other day instead of every day, and only wash your hear every 3-4 days. This will give you a nice greasy look that nobody likes. # 7. make sure to huff and puff and give a very strong passive aggressive attitude in the company of anyone who smiles at you while doing your work. Make sure you look miserable. # 8. If you catch yourself doing too good of a job or working faster than what's absolutely necessary, STOP. Take in the sights around you, slow down buddy, people may have work to do but it's their dumbass fault you had to come over probably, so inflict and express your pain by expressing your indignity in the most passive agressive way possible, working really slow, and deliberately 'missing' small items that will create more work for you later. If you do this properly, youll keep your job while still being a gross and terrible worker that nobody will want to touch or promote. Oh I almost forgot... # 9. Have Fun!

Pay to get certified, which means you have a piece of paper showing you can do the equivalent of tying your shoes on a computer A lot of this is interchangeable with working nights, except you really do become invisible to the superiors unless they know you and they are your buddy. Otherwise, they don't even know you exist until something goes wrong, or you spend one minute too many taking too long on dumb busy work that you are monitored on.

I would trust one of my old factory co-workers to laugh and keep his mouth shut at a faked credential, but my experience with IT nerds is that they are exactly the type of square to snitch. The funny thing is, usually a certification in a factory means you can do something fairly dangerous, with competency and safety. in IT it literally just means you paid for someone to acknowledge that you can FOR SURE do a thing 99% of people under the age of 40 knows how to do, or could be trained to.

And agreed that IT guys are even more likely to be snippy dorks that go mad with power the second they get a tiny scrap of it.

so you basically have to undertake zero training to do this job. I am/was quite proficient with windows 95 and XP so I guess I'm already prepared? sweet

Being a computer janitor is not just a career, it's a calling. Ask yourself, have you ever installed windows and Linux for fun? Do you build your own computer and still think Mac users are gay? Do you think you can be a condescending prick to everyone in your life? Well, you might be ready to join the elite crew of computer janitors, the blue collar workers of the future! If you haven't done so already, get started on the following: 🖥 Grow a goatee. Or if you're a woman at least a mustache. 📀 Pick a side on many contentious issues and defend it vigorously. Best operating system, best phone brand, Star Wars vs Star Trek, video game platform, favorite anime, etc. 💻 Post over with the bros in yospos. We are always friendly to new people. 🖨 I dunno maybe learn to click some things and looking up things on google. Welcome to your new career! A lifetime of staring at progress bars and crawling under desks trying to blindly plug cables into the back of a computer awaits you.

Go to school to become a computer scientists or software engineer. Get job as a Jr. QA. Make the lives of developers difficult by existing. Then write automation and focus on devops.

My buddy is in year 5 of IT having started out with literally 0 knowledge or experience. He just faked it in his interview. The thing is however stupid you think you are with computers, everyone else is even worse. There are somehow still people who are totally baffled about even the most basic functions of the magic glow box with the Google inside. So just lie and successfully turn on a computer and you get the job then fake it until you make it.
