0:00.0 | Welcome to our slash anti-work where OP tricked his company into paying him $80,000 a year to do literally nothing. |
0:09.2 | This podcast is supported by Anchor FM. If you've ever thought about starting your own podcast, |
0:14.2 | then check out Anchor FM. Anchor FM is a free podcast platform that allows you to record and edit |
0:19.9 | your podcast right from your phone or computer. I really can't recommend these guys enough. This is |
0:25.0 | the podcast platform that I personally use. Once you set up your podcast, Anchor FM will automatically |
0:31.1 | distribute it to all other platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts and others. It's super easy, |
0:36.8 | super streamlined, and you can start making money immediately. Download the free Anchor app or go to |
0:42.2 | anchor.fm to get started. Our next Reddit post is from podcast questions. I've been getting paid |
0:48.0 | $80,000 a year for the last five years doing absolutely no work. And I don't plan on changing |
0:54.7 | a thing. I'm an account manager for a telecom company that provides VOIP phones to companies. |

1:22.8 | who is very tech savvy. And we'll never have to call as asking where they should plug in the |
1:27.5 | ethernet ports. And a 10 would be like a client that's an old age home and we would get five calls |
1:33.4 | a day from each resident asking how to get a dial tone. So one account manager may be assigned to |
1:38.9 | a client who has 5,000 employees. But they're rated as a one, so it provides them just enough work |
1:45.1 | for 40 hours a week. While another account manager might get a client who has only 100 employees, |
1:50.7 | but they're tech idiots and they call them constantly. Well, when I started, I got assigned a client |
1:56.6 | with a few hundred employees who are rated a 10. So my company's algorithm predicted this would be |
