The world is going to end in 30 minutes and you're trapped at work with no escape.

Try to escape even if I'm going to die. Who wants to go out like a dweeb sitting in the corner alone eating a tuna sandwich?

I see some GAfer showing are thier true face in this thread.

See their morals; Their code. Its a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble They're only as good as the world allows them to be. When the chips are down. These civilized people. They'll eat each other.
Hate to break it to you but as soon as law and protecting services drops out there, civilization doesn't exists anymore

Humans are fucked up

If the world is about to end, then all rules don’t matter. Nobody is stuck at work even when it’s not the end of the world.

Geezus, that would be fucked up circumstances for me. No phone or Internet signals means no contacting family or friends (something a few posters here overlooked). My severe anxiety when it comes to dating would only be way worse due to knowing I’m dying in 30 minutes so no way would I be able to hook up with anyone. Can’t just sleep since you know a few people would be running around screaming. Well, my work building has nothing fun to do, so only one option:

And if I happen to be low on cash in my wallet and the debit card slider isn’t working, oh yeah I’m breaking that fucker open.

Nope. When the 30 mins are up that's it. All life just dies instantly. There is no light show or grand explosions. It would be like getting knocked out.
Well jeeze, aren't you a party pooper.

Pre covid I taught children, so I suppose it would be especially tragic in my case.

I’d gather them round for a story full of magic and wonder, inserting them each as a character, and finish up as we’re all wiped from existence.

I work in massive office with hundreds of staff. In this situation, I'm absolutely certain I'd be fighting for my life. The nature of my role means I have to give negative feedback and have difficult conversations with certain people. I've fallen out with a few people (they couldn't accept the feedback. Not my fault) and I know in this situation they'ed be coming to for me.

It's obvious. When there are no laws and no consequences, human nature descends into chaos and anarchy, so a few people would be coming for me and management.

I'd spend my last minutes on Earth fighting to the death with office equipment. If I managed to survive that, I'd probably spend my last few minutes having a fury fap. That's it. Pretty badass way to go out.

1) call family
2) eat all the food in the fridge
3) watch news
4) search other people to see what they are doing ( if they go nuts hide from them )
5) wait for it to happen as i wouldn't believe it anyway or if its a meteor or anything, hide in metro + harvesting all food i can.

You know, I was too busy thinking about what I’d do/say to my boss in this situation that I completely forgot about what others would do/say to me. I’m a team leader of about thirty staff, so that’s a lot of people who will undoubtably have a few things to get off their chest before we all die. I’d like to retract my earlier answer, and change it. I’d build a fort in my office and cry in the fetal position beneath my desk.

I bet a lot of answers is getting revenge from the boss. But is he so important that this is the last thing you want to do?

I wouldn't even bother. I would probably crawl in a corner to think about things and ignore anyone else. Maybe get my phone and listen to some of my favorite songs that i have stored, assuming i can't communicate with any of my family or friends because the network is dead or something.

Your last moments on earth will be hiding from the mob? Fuck that. You're going to die anyway in 30 minutes. Go out with a bang and fight back. Just go pure animal for the last 30 minutes of your life.

Are you saying I should go No Russian?

Sorry. A few rules were outlined.

No phones (mobile or landline) work after the news report. Internet is also out.

This isn't a meteor. Nothing will survive this. At the end of the 30 mins, all life just instantly dies. It'll be like getting knocked out. You can't run from this or hope to survive it.

Do you have guns in your place or work?

Anyway, all I'm suggesting is that you have two options. Hide from the mob and die behind your fort, or fight back against all who attack you and go out with a bang.

Would just think they are trolling or wait outside to see what up.

Getting the guns may be an issue. With that in mind, I’d don my smartest suit, put on some Freebird on the stereo, and go Kingsman on their asses with a desk chair and a fan.

The hotel i work at has a bar, and I work nights so most likely I would be the only one around. I would put such a big dent in the liquor inventory I might not make it 30 minutes.

Take the time to throw my manager down a staircase and maybe have a chat with some of the decent people if we're not all too busy freaking out.

Stand on the tallest thing in the office and masterbate furiously.

Then drink any alcohol available and either lie down or put a paper bag over my head. Not that it would help.

Wow, I would not want to share an office with some of you in this situation!

I'd lock myself in a closet or some other vacant room and pray.

Throw a chair through my bosses glass door in a fit of anarchistic rage, smash all the computers and stuff, and let out months of bottled up anger on a coworker I don’t like, maybe stab them with a sharpened pencil.

also raid the office fridge freezer and eat someone’s hot pockets

Their is a bar in the lobby of my building. I guess Id go down there and pour myself the best Scotch I can find, light up a cigar, put on some music and just enjoy what little time I had left.

I’m in the fortunate situation that I teach in the same building that my kids attend for school. I would pull them out of class and we would go back to my classroom to pray. I know we have policies against prayer in class, but at this point, I wouldn’t really care.

LOL. I was gonna say the same thing.

I'd scan the room and hope there's a good looking taker.... Ok ladies, anyone want to have some fun?

Only problem is what if it's an ugly fat one putting up her hand. Not sure I could do it even though I'm going to be disintegrated in half an hour.
And in the final moments of your life you would come to the realisation that you were the ugly fat one in the office... :messenger_blowing_kiss:

I’m big on doomsday it starts by turning tables over. When the world is ending you got to listen to your favorite song, when the world is ending in Majora’s Mask honestly people leave, shake, shiver and accept it.

If GAF is offline, how would you even post the thread in the first place?
I’d write and carefully compose it in a word processor in fear of losing it if writing it online, as it’d be my last one.
Then I’d try to log in to the internet and...


Why is everyone waiting until doomsday to fuck their coworkers?
Asking the real questions here.


But the saddest thing is, I’d probably spend the whole 30 minutes trying to choose the one last thing to do that’d make it worth it.
I also tried to picture the scene in my mind and I imagine lots of people would be in the same situation, used as they are to occupying every free second of their lives looking at a phone that would serve nothing in this scenario.
Being violent towards others would inevitably end up with others getting violent against you. Not the best way to go. If the end that awaits you is instantaneous and painless, why bother?

Unfortunately, in my situation there is nothing to watch. When the 30 mins are up, all life just instantly dies all at the same time.

Anyway, I'm surprised at some of the answers here. Do you really think you'll spend your last 30 mins fucking or having a fap in the corner? If you knew the game was up in 30mins, would you even be able to get it up? I'm not sure I'd be up for sex or flicking one off the wrist.

I know for a fact my office would turn into a orgy of death and violence. Nobody is going to fucking. Everybody will be busy festooning the walls with blood. It'd be a very intense 30mins, that is if I actually lasted 30 mins.

I guess try talking with my coworkers? They're all a bunch of older women so they'd prolly be breaking down.

Keep last 5 min for myself to sit and think of the good times one last time.

Doesn't matter. Same answer applies for me.

But yeah, I think some folks don't have much appreciation for the depravity of mankind when there are absolutely no consequences.

No doubt. Some people would turn into absolute animals, and I mean real animals.

Take away the laws of society and people would lose all humanity.

I'm actually shocked more people in here haven't said that they'd kill/eat their coworkers or other dark shit that the human mind struggles to comprehend.

Most of it has been hiding, fucking, or that one person who said they'd spend their last 30 mins playing GTA.
