For two summers in high school I lived in south Florida with my grandad, I worked in the IT department of the company he’s in the administration of, I didn’t do shit but answer phones and post funny shit on the internet lol

IT helpdesk is an easy job it was good money for a high school kid though
 
Hofstra University public safety.
Summer 1998

I got paid minimum wage to smoke weed and play video games with my roommates.

I would clock in, grab a walkie talkie and go back to my apartment which was about 2 houses down from the edge of school property.


I would occasionally get off my ass to walk around the student center and steal food from catered events and meetings on campus.

Data Analyst for Tesla. I started at 8:30 and finished my daily reporting around 10:30. The rest of the day I'd either hang out with the IT manager to my left, or the transportation manager to my right. The building GM's office was right behind my desk so sometimes he'd call me in there to help him with something on his computer or to show me a youtube video. He'd also give me a piece of whatever his little daughter baked over the weekend.

A few months of doing that, we were told that our entire building was being laid off but they gave us a two month warning. My boss told me to show up, clock in and out during the two months but she didn't care what I did in between and they didn't need my reporting anymore. So I'd clock in and mostly hang out with the transportation manager. We'd take 2 lunches or go to the mall and walk around. Someone had brought a playstation and hooked it up in the lobby so others would sit there watching Netflix all day. I got a good severance package too just for sticking it out.

Semi-conductor headquarters down the street from me has a fitness center for the employees. I worked lifeguarding at the pool, and it was so easy that it was actually bad. Basically, trading time for money no actual work or stress.

Pool was laps only employees only, so the entire job was you watching on average one person an hour swim laps. The only reason they even had the job was in the early 90s two people had cardiac arrest while swimming so the liability insurance for the building demanded that the pool be staffed or the policy would either be revoked or priced out of the ass.
 
Working in a EBgames in a mall center.
18-19yrs old.
 
I had 2 jobs in the '00s that I basically automated 80% of everything I had to do. But I didn't tell anyone because I didn't want to cause problems.

I just came in, BS'd with my friends, messed around on the internet, and ran my macros according to a schedule. My work was always on time and error free, so no one pressed too hard about why I seemed to have more time to socialize or take long lunches.
 
Real estate broker. Once I stopped actively selling, I was able to coast off the cut from my agents and basically just did housekeeping and conflict resolution.
 
Road crew flagger during summers for a brush clearing operation in middle of nowhere areas. Decent pay (government) Barely any traffic where these projects were taking place. Just worked on the tan, read countless novels and did bicep curls all day. Was about 16-18 yo I think.
 
Applied to Amazon as a box chucker because they had a $2500 sign on bonus. I decided to test it since there were no stipulations for receiving it other than being hired. I spent 4 hours shuffling between cubicles doing onboarding tasks. After that I went home, never showed up to my shift, and received a direct deposit for the $2500 bonus and 3 sick days the following week.
