So here we are again, its Sunday...
Youve spent all day yesterday doing all the things you had no time for during the week and now today you dread all the horrors and nonsense that await tomorrow at work.
Anyone else relate? Theres no feeling of relaxed anymore with this place and they do it on purpose
Bored at work. Watching others complain about being overworked. Is it me? Couldn’t be.
Post ID: @a8+1jqkpnep0, interesting analysis. Who is Panjeet? What is a piehole?

”Its obvious OP was referring to being overworked all week so theres no time during the week to get errands done so he/she has to do it on saturday. We can all relate.”
”So do the needful Panjeet and shut your piehole....your time will come”

Now you're just proving that you are not only a misogynist, but a homophobe too.
@es Now you’re just being disgusting to try to win an argument.
Maybe he's g-y. Ever consider that?
Even if it was a female, the slurs about being a single parent had a lot of assumptions and stereotypes going on. Best to keep an open mind and not assume the worst about people. You never really know what's going on within people's personal lives or what they've been through.
“…You work all day, then afterward, you don't get to just chill with a glass of wine.”
Said no man, ever.
That's rather harsh. Also we don't know if that poster is male or female. Could've been a widow or widower, too. Not every single parent is a never married or subpar type of person.
Lots of people are suffering. From the tone of your post maybe you're suffering too? Try being kind.
Agree. Where’s the elevator music? Bathroom butt trumpets in 2025?!? What da ffffffff? My shower vent has Bluetooth, for Christ’s sake.
I dread taking a dump in RR1 with all those conference call folks in the stalls telling others “it is what it is” and “do the needful” while making noises .
@aq no one asked (or wanted) you - and whatever sad sap you opened your legs for - to disgrace the world with whatever it is that you pushed out of that wretched, stinking womb.
Don’t punish everyone else because you had kids and were too of a b1tch to keep your man around.
TDS is real
Group self-poisoning in the parking lot?
This entire country isn’t going to be worth living in once the baboon in office is finished.
Welcome back to reality. "Embrace the Su-k"
I 100% relate. I dread going into the Dell offices, the company has gone downhill.
I drove into the office for 17 years. Then covid and now back to the office. If you think going back into the office is better somehow you’re an id10t, sheep or totally blind.
Especially the “single parent” poster. If that was really your life you would have loved working from home because most of that is alleviated.
If I could work from home I would every single day. I’m actively looking for a new role that has it and it’s funny. 9/10 companies I see do have it.
You people are f00ls. Sheep
Holy sh-t how many people post here on the weekend
"Your post highlights exactly why we are back in the office. You just admitted you weren't working during the week and instead doing personal things."
No the post highlights how an unnecessary rto causes a 40 hour workweek to turn into a 50 hour workweek once commuting is added. This extra time drain can have a vastly negative affect on those of us that were already in a time crunch every day.

...again the more I read on this forum the more glad I am that us Europeans do not behave in this way.
Child like is putting it mildly.
@bc+1jqkpnep0, according to the DOL FLSA, ”normal travel from home to work is not worktime”.

If you're saying I was slacking off while working from home and occasionally running errands, don't forget that I now spend 7.5 hours a week commuting to the office—that’s a full workday!
Cut the Cr@p
Stating how we all feel isnt whining lmao....go do some laundry
You're still whining.
OP here....i can certainly sympathize with your situation and thank you for proving my point, which is that this place is working us to death all week and passively aggressively making our lives he-l in HOW they do so. Weekends are and used to be for relaxing and back before you could still work normal work hours during the week and have time for errands outside of work so your entire saturday wasnt spent getting caught up because you were too mentally exhausted to do anything other than relax once you were off work. We all know Dell culture isnt like that anymore and the expectation now is you put your whole life in for this company and that all the HR blah blah about our health and mental health is just that.....words.
Lastly, just because you are a single parent isnt everyone else's fault and you are no different than everyone else in how this company treats you AND us, so you should really stop being so condescending and understand that we all put our pants on the same day and all have the same irrational expectations from this place.
All the Dell bots with the downvotes
"Its obvious OP was referring to being overworked all week so theres no time during the week to get errands done so he/she has to do it on saturday. We can all relate."
It's called, "adulting," FFS!
Guess what? Life isn't all flowers and unicorns f@rting out rainbows, a LOT of life as a responsible adult involves sacrificing your own time and energy for others, including the dr-gery of chores and errands.
You talk about being "overworked?"
Try having to do all of that as a single parent!
You get up at 5:30 am every weekday to pack lunches, get kids' breakfast together, make sure they're awake on time and clean and dressed and ready for school with their homework, etc. Then you get them fed and out the door, and to school. Then you rush to commute to your in-office work dayto get there on time. You work all day, then afterward, you don't get to just chill with a glass of wine. Oh no, your 2nd "job" has just begun! You rush to after-school care to pick up the kids. Then you get home to make them dinner, help with their homework, listen to their problems and try to help them learn how to solve them, make sure they take their bath, put them to bed, and then maybe you might have time for yourself for a few hours, before you have to get up and do it all over again.
Every day.
Week after week.
Year after year.
The chores (which you don't have anyone helping you with) all wait for Saturday: cleaning, meal prep. for the upcoming week, laundry, food shopping, clothes shopping, paying bills, car maintenance, and this is also while chauffering kids around to various friends' houses, ball games/practice, family visits, medical appoinments, and other events. Sunday is your one day "off" for the week, but you're never really "off" when you're a parent.
Let's see you handle that schedule, completely on your own, with no help from anyone else, for a couple of decades.
I dread tomorrow. Another week of drowning in a ridiculous workload. "Do more with less" translates to working on weekends so it's not so crushing during the week.
All thr sad loser downvoters lmao
Get a life
yep, sort of dreading going in tomorrow. It's not too exciting anymore.
Your post highlights exactly why we are back in the office. You just admitted you weren't working during the week and instead doing personal things.
Go outside today.
Get some sun.
Exercise.
Breathe fresh air.
Be grateful to be alive.
It's SPRING!
