Has anyone here completely automated their job? I'm slowly

>>1638790
what is your job?

>>1638790
you mean like a real job? or just spamming job? its not that easy to fully automate your real job bro.

>>1638798
literally 99% money making forums that are alsocancer are full of this exact shit bro xD

>>1638804
whatever, i stopped caring after replying to your first post.

It's a real job, business analyst

A lot of my workload is navigating a computer in some way to get the results I need. A lot of daily routines can be automated using programs like Java.

>>1638790
I wasn't able to automate 100% of it, I was only able to do 80%. I ended up starting my own business and now I provide services to my prior employer and a few other firms. Make about 6 times as much as I did before, I highly recommend it. I only have to work about 3 hours a week now, but I like to improve my software and whatnot, so I work more around 20 hours a work. I'm very cozy. Law firm industry.

It would be cool. But I don't want my autonomous loader to flip over a truck or kill anyone.

Plus if my boss shows up and I'm taking good a nap while my loader is running around my job just got 100 times harder running an automation group while simultaneously getting a bounty on my head for putting 60 people out of a job.

They do have automated haul trucks already though. So that would be nice.

Just don't end up like this guy

Fucker should have routed his LoL traffic through a VPN so the IT guys wouldn't catch his ass.

>>1638874
that... that wouldn't work though.

>>1638879
How so? They would only see an encrypted connection to a few IPs.

Kek'd and discarded.

It's hard to take you seriously when you write like a 14 year old.

>>1639184
Recommended programs then you NEET smartass?

>>1639231
i think what he meant was that java is not a program and no one would ever say it was unless they were completely tech illiterate

must be some business you got there

I wouldn't use Java for automation. Probably some kind of scripting language. Bash or Python probably.

I work at a small community bank as the IT and operations guy, I have almost completely automated my job to the point where I show up to work and do whatever I want to all day, usually this means posting on 4chan, watching netflix and doing some light trading or playing a strategy game like Stellaris, I even installed a low profile graphics card into my workstation. The only time I have to do anything now is when people forget their passwords or lock themselves out of the domain which takes like 2 minutes to fix.

>>1639271
Sounds pretty comfy. What education do you have?

>>1639278
Computer science degree, but I didn't even need it, the guy I replaced didn't even have a degree, just had a lot of IT experience in the finance world and he went on to a much nicer job.

Interestingly enough, scammers write like that intentionally because only idiots would reply to them, so they only have to focus on idiots when they get their skype messages.

Which is why the Nigerian Prince is still used, because only an idiot would fall for the age-old Nigerian Prince scam and email them back.

>>1639271
Just curious, what's your income?

If you can automate everything in that job, then it's not a REAL job.

>>1638790
I have a shitty dead end job in a medium sized company which I hate. I either do nothing in front of my PC all day or hide in the toilet cabins.

It's similiar I guess.

>boss finds out

Thanks anon

I'm a project manager so I'm basically already replacable with Microsoft Project and a blind monkey. But my employer prefers to ignore a human being than a monkey/PC.

What if I lock it up?

intellectual property ftw

>>1640530

So what if anon just writes his code at home and tests it at the job to see if it works?

>>1641413

Now, correct me if I'm wrong here but if the boss found out about these automations, can't you just delete the source code as if it never existed?

>>1641421
Exactly, our IT is a joke. I could be wrong but I'm sure there is a way protect it from tampering. My whole job won't be automated but I'd say 50% of it and I work from home when I want. Then when I get bored I'll move on to a higher paying job with my new skillset.

>>1638790

Would be real nice to even begin to have time to automate stuff in my job.

>get fired after another year.

before I became a programmer I did this at a shitty library I worked at and automated a 45+ hour cloning process (because they were doing everything wrong) down to a 2 hour one but it caused the entire "IT" department to get butt jello and start to sabotage and fight me on everything so I had to quit. Anyone want me to type the whole story out?

>>1642747

Please, so I can apply to my local library and do the same.

Plz, plz, plz.

>>1642670
That's pretty funny. How did they find out? Were you surprised they weren't pissed off at you?
