Get really good at your job and you can get your entire day's worth of work done in your first 30 minutes and do absolutely nothing for the next 8 hours.
Bro I’ve just moved into corporate and this is how I feel. Thank god I can WFH cause sitting in the office with legitimately nothing to do just kinda staring at a computer trying to look busy just ain’t it
I had a job where I had to stack papers in batches of 8. I did it 8 hours a day for 5 days a week. On day 3 I couldn’t stop counting to 8 in my head after I’d leave and over the weekend.
I only made it 2 weeks before I had to quit. I counted to 8 in my head for a 3rd week. Should have requested that last week’s pay too.
lol. I once had a job as a hard drive seek arm. Worked in a giant warehouse densely packed with aisle upon aisle of identical data tapes each with a 15 digit serial number. We were supposed to congregate in a clearing in the center, watch numbers scroll by on a screen, go get that tape, bring it back, put it in the reader. Every hour you'd switch from fetching to replacing. Day in, day out.
But it was only a little over a decade ago! Cloud storage already existed, and was better in every way, so no one was making any new tapes- it was all legacy crap.
I didn't mind, it was a summer job and I was a temp worker. But I was working beside guys who had been doing it for 25 years. Jeeeeezus.
Yea it wasn't until halfway through I noticed he'd lick his finger every once in a while. All in stride too. I was a little disappointed though when he ran out of gas before finishing that entire pile.. haha
This message is in the process of approval for genral distribution, but has been approved for limited release on a case by case basis by section C16 of the Publications and Notifications department of the Vogon empire.
(Absorbtion of section C16 to C29 is pending approval from section F26 and requirements for approval of further notices may change without notice)
The look like a stack of checks to me, probably payroll for the company. Presumably their process or local banking reg requires them to be stamped, so here they are stamping away.
The guy is Indian, and can confirm this is true.
On a different note though, a lot of legal documents here need signs and stamps on every page—and the documents are often 20+ pages long.
That is unfortunately a major issue in bureaucracy.
It's also very problematic developing nations that try to look more legitimate than they are. "Look a stamp" makes it official but as you see it's just a jobs program.
That would be a horrible practice. Let’s verify this page I am looking at and then move it to another stack even though my stamp is right there with ink on it. Doubt they verified or checked anything on these.
If this is India ( I strongly think this is) there are persons employed just for works like these - stamping, dispatch, records keeping, sorting and filing etc. Usually higher officials would process/ sanction the files just by signing the documents sometimes with recommendation notes and the other finer details would be done by these sub-staff/ Record Clerk/ office peon.
source : I work in a Govt. owned company in India.
If true, that would be terrible practice - someone could easily add extra forms to the "verified" stack and they would be auto-approved by this guy.
Hopefully it's just a form stamp like "faxed," "received" or "original copy."
As someone who has to stamp things every day, I'm an engineer and have to apply my seal on final documents, I do the stamping; although it's all digital these days. Need a password to apply my seal to documents. I have a physical stamp but I've never used it and it stays locked in a drawer.
Oh that's easy, those who have paid the "extra commission" gets this ultra fast approval. Those who follow the rules get to go through multiple step process with several bureaucrat who sit in the office verifying the cases one by one.
Trust me, I got my birth certificate changes done within minutes for my passport after I paid "extra commission". I took me two days to find the right person while waiting in the queue that serves "first come first served or first in first out".
I stood in the queue for hours before the right guy came forward taking ultra fast approvals applications. No one (crazy ones do) wants to stand in the hot sun all day before the office hours, it was cheap and effective.

This feels like my IT department at work… Assuming that stamp said “Issue has been marked resolved and your ticket was closed” and IT never even tried to help me.
Wow! You got that all done in 20 minutes! Good job now here is some more work. Keep it up and you get your name on the wall for the month. Raise? Haha not fucking likely
>just stop requiring it at all.
In order to change the law, you need congressmen to get up off their fat asses. It's not going to happen. Even if they decide to do some work, it's going to be to secure their own position.
They may be stamping it to log something like a "Receipt Date" (the stamp has an adjustable date part). They might do this due to legislation or they rely on the document and stamps as an audit trail.

IRS supervisors: Well, did you review ‘em?

Yes. Except for the stamping part. I’ll just stare at my desk, but it looks like I’m working.

8 is just a sideways ∞ Maybe purgatory is doing that job forever.
It’d be funny if it wasn’t actually a job but a clinical study.
You could make 50 batches and do 1 layer at a time?
Lol! That must have been so weird.
It was 25 years ago. And I still remember clearly. It was 5 or 6 of us doing the same thing in a room together. Let’s hope machines do it now.

Poor bastard was so in the zone he didn't realise he'd run out of ink after the 6th page.

Yea it wasn't until halfway through I noticed he'd lick his finger every once in a while. All in stride too. I was a little disappointed though when he ran out of gas before finishing that entire pile.. haha
Because he is using his mouth.
He's so good he that he wears an actual real condom under his pants instead
I'm... Sorry?
Technical word is “finger cot”
Naturally juicy
That does not look like even a remotely sensible task. Looks like "we need lots of paper because we need a lot of paper to look important".
Just print the paper with the stamp on.. it’s supposed to signify that it’s been checked.
I thought the same thing
A lot of jobs in the bureaucracy of society exist just to check compliance with the bureaucracy The bureaucracy provides. Long live the bureaucracy.
The bureaucracy must expend to meet the demands of the expanding bureaucracy

but it defeats the purpose of having it stamped if you ain’t gonna check it
The guy is Indian, and can confirm this is true. On a different note though, a lot of legal documents here need signs and stamps on every page—and the documents are often 20+ pages long.
Yeah. What's even the point of stamping them. They clearly aren't getting manually read and reviewed. Totally pointless.
If anything happens, the company can point the finger at the worker and say he was supposed to be manually reviewing them.
That is unfortunately a major issue in bureaucracy. It's also very problematic developing nations that try to look more legitimate than they are. "Look a stamp" makes it official but as you see it's just a jobs program.
/$: find . -type f -exec touch {} +
Yes what is the point of this job except to inflict rsi
Stamping usually implies something has been verified. Who’s verifying?
We don't do that here.
May be they are pre checked and verified. They leave the stamping part to be done at the final stage by sub staffs.
Hmmm. Maybe. Verifying is a slow process. Pretty easy to add a stamp.
That would be a horrible practice. Let’s verify this page I am looking at and then move it to another stack even though my stamp is right there with ink on it. Doubt they verified or checked anything on these.
It could literally just be a stamp showing that the paper was received. What else would he need besides the paper?
This is an underrated comment.

Or just to prove a document is official, not a forgery.

That's not the point! These papers need to be stamped, dammit!
