I would be responsible for creating more and more paper forms which have to be filled by hand before each task.

PS: Can you guess what I'm doing now?

Iโ€™m a teacher, so I guess now I spread misinformation on social media for a living. ๐Ÿคก

I think the exact opposite would turn me into a literal pirate; stealing money in a way that statistically increases the risks of maritime commercial ventures.

[โ€“] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Are you the port authority or what?

[โ€“] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Maritime adjuster. My body is a machine that turns the inherent risk of fishing into box wine.

Discount Harbor Jesus!

I make sure people don't talk to each other about what they're working on and hide important information they need to complete tasks. Sometimes I'll advise them to work on the wrong thing for a long time.

In my spare moments I delete the data in reports and unpivot tables.

[โ€“] eselover 5 points 2 months ago

That sounds like what my managers are doing right now, minus the unpivot tables. I have to guess what I am supposed to do.

I transition automated processes into manual labor

[โ€“] atro_city@fedia.io 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Probably how governments want to solve joblessness, just like the Germans in the second world war forced their population to build highways by hand.

I write software that scours the internet for porn and other NSL content, then sends it to school kids.

I have a job! Woohoo!

[โ€“] Mighty@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Damn I feel like the polar opposite of my job is also my job. But if I try to make it bad, I'd say I would hurt and demotivate children and try to keep them stupid

[โ€“] SirSamuel@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I lock people out of their homes and break door hardware.

Aww geez, I'm a frat boy now

I am served and taken care of from the moment I wake up untill the moment I fall asleep. Someone makes me nutritious meals, and I only do activities that stimulate my brain. Once a year a small baby gets shoved up inside me

[โ€“] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 months ago

Now I'm Not sure if you give birth once per year currently, only gave one birth in your life, or plan to be childless.

[โ€“] psmgx@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Annihilate transportation infrastructure on a large scale.

CloudStrike has already put me out of business, it seems

Does that mean instead of cleaning up the place, I make it messy as fuck? ๐Ÿค” What's the opposite of a janitor?

Well, fuck, I'm now an engineer on day shift. (I'm night shift QA and most of my issues are caused by careless engineers.)

Instead of talking to the customers and fixing issues I'm writing code and breaking things.

So apparently I work at Crowdstrike

If it were the opposite, I make sure planes come out of the sky

Instead of building homes, I destroy them... So same trade, different step.

[โ€“] Kamephis@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I do research on technologies that make airplanes heavier, increase their fuel consumption and make them fall out of the sky more often. Oh and I spend time in the classroom making sure students have no idea how to reverse it.

[โ€“] Noodle07@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

How is it working at Boeing?

Outbound inferiority

I make sure what I send is going to fail all the tasks. Nothing but the worst for my customers.

I decommission computers with a very efficient inventory and documentation system.

I now make it impossible for trade schools to be publicly funded.

[โ€“] Phate18@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I become a Asset Liability Mismanagement specialist.

My job is to devise an investment strategy and corresponding pension benefit structure that maximises the chance that the pension fund runs out of money before all pensions are paid, and does so as quickly as possible while taking as much risk as possible.

So basically what pension schemes did in the 80s and 90s.
