You would receive a laptop, go online, comment some kid's photos at MySpace, Facebook or Instagram, vandalize Wikipedia by replacing Donald Trump's face with a penis and finally of course experience an exchange of memes with a chatbot pretending to be an Antifa member. All of this done while listening to EDM from earphones instead of receiving music directly into your brain.

Reminds me of this ridiculous and very funny VR game:



Job Simulator: The 2050 Archives is a virtual reality simulation video game developed and published by Owlchemy Labs for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Oculus Quest in which players participate in comical approximations of real-world jobs. 

...

Players participate in simulated jobs in a job museum run by robots resembling floating CRT computer monitors with faces. The jobs are represented as tongue-in-cheek approximations of real occupations: "Auto Mechanic", "Gourmet Chef", "Store Clerk" and "Office Worker". Accompanied by a computer character who provides exposition and instructions, players perform tasks associated with that occupation, some realistic and others comical. For example, in the "Office Worker" simulation, players engage in activities like evaluating new employees and transferring calls, but are also called upon to eat doughnuts, share photos at the water cooler, and participate in other office tasks.
