This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

my last unemployment check just hit my account. Not even a single call back in 6 months. I’m scurred.

Have you tried strapping yourself up by your pullboots?

Or booting yourself up by your pullstraps?

These both sound unsafe

Fuck 'em. Add AI to the front of everything on your resume and apply at a startup.

I feel like if they could successfully bullshit like that, they wouldn't be in that situation in the first place. Or they have some kind of health issue that makes it literally impossible to work any kind of job, even if they make it through the application process.

Have you shopped your resume around with friends or family? Or stripped identifying info and posted it here? Blind spots happen with resumes and a little outside perspective can help with targeting it to the job you want.
