Intro
Hey!

There are 29 achievements, you can unlock them in any order. Game is quite short, so if you happen to miss something, then usually it doesn't take more than a couple minutes to get back to it.

One of the achievements is tricky ('Pfff who needs lights') but the rest shouldn't be a problem whatsoever.
Achievements
In the Main Menu

What no, don't do that!- Mute the Narrator.
Go in the left side door 'Settings' and press the red button next to 'Mute'.

Be Patient - Thank you for extending the steam playtime.
Don't start the game (wait about a minute) until the achievement pops.


Watch the credits - You watched the credits to the end.
Go past the trophies, in the next room with the green sofas. Sit in one and watch the credits until the achievement pops.

Clean up the cinema - You cleanded the cinema.
There are 15 pieces of trash scattered around and on the green sofas. Collect them all and throw them in the bin next to the door.

Quit the game - Wow you quit the game properly.
Go in the right side door 'Exit' and press the red button under 'Quit'

Start a new game

Find a clown - Buuuuhhhhh :D!!!
There’s a welcome present box behind you. Open it... if you dare.


Fill the trash can at the first level - Wuhu you are a trash royalty.
There are four paper balls on the floor and one in the desk drawer. Throw them all in the bin next to the desk.

Light on, light off, repeat - You played 10x with the flashlight.
There is a flashlight on the table, click it repeatedly.

You couldn't resist - It is just human, don't feel bad!
Press the red button on the table.

A:
You had negative points - Be bad at the button game.
Do the opposite of what the instructions on the monitor tells you (or don't press any buttons).

B: (you'll have to start a new game to get back to this part)
At least 18 points - congrats - Be good at the button game.
Follow the instructions on the monitor- you must correctly do at least 18 (out of 20). Please note that sometimes it tells you which button to press, and sometimes which not to press.

Start a new game

Take a dump - You took a dump in the dark.
If you don’t press the red button, the narrator will return after a while, and the night shift will begin. Look in one of the dark corners (to the left of where the door will appear). You’ll see the outline of a toilet...


Sleep on the Job - You couldn't help it.
You will eventually fall asleep if you don't press the red button or drink the coffee that's on the table.

End your shift - You finished your day.
After you are woken up- click on the door to leave the room (this achievement unlocks with other endings too).

Start a new game

Have a sip - Drink coffee to stay awake.
When you start yawning, drink the coffee that's on the table.

Lights out! - Experience a power outage.
If you drank the coffee, didn't press the red button, then after a while there will be a power outage.

You can now pick up the flashlight.

Ehhwwwwww - Spit in your bosses coffee - you monster
As soon as you exit the starting room, head through the door on the right to enter your boss’s office. On the desk you’ll see a cup of coffee...

Find all cards - You checked corners and drawers and found 3 cards.
There are 3 cards hidden around:
- As soon as you exit the starting room, one is in the room to the left, in a drawer.
- One is in the room to the right on the clipboard.
- One is farther in the room with the green monitors- on one of the desks.

Recycling during a Power outage - You recycled all 8 pieces of trash.
There are 8 paper balls in the building (not counting the starting room):
- 1 in the room to the left.
- 2 in the room to the right.
- 1 in the 'fuse box' room.
- 1 in the corridor.
- 3 in the green monitor room (1 hidden behind a plant, 2 in drawers).
Bring them all back (before fixing the power outage!) to the starting room and throw them in the bin.

Glitchy!! - Get outside the level boundaries!
In the room that has the locked fuse box, there is a lockpick hidden between the boxes. Pick it up, use it on the previously locked door and go outside of the building.


Win a race - You doped yourself and won the race
Go back into the room to the left of the starting room- it has a board that says “Nobody Cares Work Harder.” On the table, there’s an energy drink- drink it. Then go outside again, head to the opposite side of the building, and you’ll see an orange button. Press it and run to the finish line!


(Not slender man) - find 3 Papers outside the level
Outside the building there are three papers attached to objects:
- One is directly in front of you when you exit the building, on the plant pot.
- One is on one of the trees.
- One is on the outer side of the wall (not the building, but that separate wall behind the trees), close to a chair and a box.

Get stuck in a rocket silo - You got stuck in the rocket silo
While you are outside of the building- jump in the rocket silo, then click on the door.

Start a new game
As before- don't push the red button, drink the coffee, power will go out again.

False Alarm - fall for a false alarm.
Pick up the key (it's in one of the drawers in the green monitor room), unlock the fuse box, use the switch inside, go back to the starting room. After the narrator congratulates you on a job well done, there will be about 10 seconds of silence, after which he will return, saying that there's an alarm and asking you to push the red button- do as he says!

Rocket man - let a rocket fly.
Unlocks with the previous achievement.

Start a new game
As before- don't push the red button, drink the coffee, power will go out again.

Pace, peace... finally - You saved humanity.
Fix the power, go back to the starting room, then click on the door to successfully end your shift.

Start a new game
As before- don't push the red button, drink the coffee, power will go out again.

Not the brightest - you wandered into the dark without a light.
Don't pick up the flashlight and open the first door.

Pfff who needs lights - You don't need lights!
Fix the power outage without picking up the flashlight. This one is a tricky achievement. Get familiar with the layout of the rooms, and try using the doorknobs and green monitors as reference points.
(Probably not intended and might be fixed later, but if you go close to the fuse box, you can 'walk inside it' and interact with the switch inside without needing to get the key) Looks like that's fixed.

All achievements - Be a mad lad and achieve EVERYTHING!
Unlocks at the same time as you unlock your 28th achievement.
Afterword
If you have any questions, suggestions, criticisms, found any mistakes and so on, please let me know!

Thanks to the developers for making a good game and thank you for checking out my guide!

I slightly edited the guide to make it clearer that there will be a short silence and you have to wait.

How does the game end after he congratulates you? I just tested again- it doesn't end. After he stops talking, there should be about about 10 second silence, after which the narrator should be saying there's an alarm.

Very helpful

It is there only during the night shift (when it says 'Night Shift' in the top right corner). Just move the mouse around in that corner until you see that outline. Not sure what else to suggest, it shouldn't be too difficult.

i cant find the toilet for the take a dump

Did you fix the power outage and go back to the starting room? The narrator will then first congratulate you on a job well done. Then there will be a short silence (he is waiting for you to exit the room and end the game, I guess). But soon after he will be back, saying that there's an alarm.
