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.

Eh it worked 10 years ago as well, but I've not been in retail/entry level jobs for about that long. Just walk in or visit the store website and fill out an application. Turnover is so high in these shitty entry level roles that they're always looking for new blood

Heck a recruiter I talked to 8 years ago is still including me on mass texts about immediate openings at warehouses and factories for laborers with the most recent just a couple of days ago

Do these jobs suck? Yeah, but they'll hire anyone with a pulse who can show up sober, and oftentimes sobriety is optional. It'll get the person out of the house and earning some money which should help their mental state as well since staying inside 24/7 and having no structure to your life is a recipe for depression
