Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

I love my current job, it’s unionized, we get weekly pay, the managers are some of the kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet, let alone work alongside of, I get plenty of breaks and reading time when I’m not busy, I get Saturdays off and additional Sunday pay. But two things suck, the coworkers and the pay. One of my coworkers is an old Lib that was very Pro Ireland and we talked for a bit but he’s TERRIFIED of Soviets, like he’s literally spooked by me bc I wear a USSR jacket and Ushankas in winter. I also had a coworker that claimed to be Jesus. Yep, they thought they were the Son of God sent down to redeem humanity’s sinners. He also claimed to have been in the military, a few cults and a few mafias and eventually got fired for calling a young black coworker the Hard-R N-slur, so he was a piece of work. You could never trust what he says and would love to cockblock people. Very odd guy, tough to feel sorry for him but I kinda do, he’s obviously not all there. With all that craziness out of the way, I’m interviewing for a new position that makes like 2-3x as much as my current job and a lot more professional than a grocery. Technically the title of this post is a TINY bit misleading because I already did the interview early this morning. I had to look up stuff about the company and slob a whole bunch of corporate knob to make me seem interested in the job without sounding desperate. If it went well I go on to Interview #2 in-person, if THAT goes well, I get the job. Hopefully I never have to see that crazy wannabe Jesus dude again.

Lol I lied so much, Irl i went from cashier to outside cart pusher because i wanted more breaks, i told them the opposite, that I “worked my way up” to cashiering and how I commanded a team when tbh all I did was let people know ahead of time when I would go on break. Technically I’m commanding a team to acknowledge when I will take my break🤷‍♂️who knows worst they can do is say no and not hire me, if I get hired I can learn

The trick is believing your lies, you have to practice them too lol.
