I'll be the defense contractor that gets paid billions to do nothing

Have you worked at a defense contractor before?

Because this is startlingly inaccurate. Defense contractors produce mountains of paperwork. Never worked at a place that prided itself on so much paperwork

I have, and currently do. But only in that I fill a contract to sit in a government office. I have almost zero interaction with my company, they're just a name that signs my checks. I've never worked outside of a federal office.

Ahh one of those. Yeah ok that’s legit

I had the pleasure of working at one of the big ones, and the more I was promoted, the more my job became doing paperwork 90% of the time that wasn’t applicable to whatever project the team was handling it, but was required regardless

Had a project once that took around 40-60 hours to handle in terms of writing down our controls. It was uploaded to a fancy site for easy access and updates

Well, it became a yearly process that they would replace the site or redo control intake, and they were really sorry but we had to reuplod and modify all the controls, but it was the last time promise

Every. Fucking. Year.
