The service industry is like living in a parallel world, you're busy when everyone else is free on the weekends or night time, you're working the hardest when everyone else is resting or playing on the holidays

You see your family after everyone else is back at work, there is is no Christmas break, there are no weekends, it's time formed in the shadow of "real" life, life lived in the invert

actual encounter i had with a customer at my job

[fruity-boy-bruno]

if you go to a small store (such as a family dollar) and you're getting a lot of things, do you:

grab a cart/basket/buggy

put your things at the counter and walk back and fourth while you shop \^-^/

Carry it all in your arms

I don't go to small stores/something else/I'm bald

hi how's everyone's night going, because here we just had to deal with a man trying to abduct women out of the work parking lot

You know whats stupid? That I'm not technically allowed to sit down at my job

My shifts are only four hours which is easy! But ive had 8 hr shifts and not being able to sit down for that whole time is fucked

Even for 4 hours is fucked

Anyway capitalism stupid, let ur workers sit down when theres no work to be done

Dissociating at work in the grocery freezers, hands full of popsicles, at 11:45pm while ‘major tom’ plays on the intercom

we, retail workers in December fighting not for the sake of the War or those that started this War, feeding the great maw of capitalism that demands tribute each winter lest The Economy rolls over and annihilate us first and foremost, but like all foot soldiers we fight and die for each other . . . *throws myself in the way of an angry older customer so my coworker can go pee*
