This is riskier but you could stay, stand your ground, and then either go down with the ship and get severance or get fired for said ground-standing and turn whistleblower, which will probably get you other job offers or at least some publicity you could direct towards your passion of pixel art <_<
Ya know, I THOUGHT about staying on til we just go under

but who the fuck knows when thats gonna be, ya know? Every year for the past 10 years its looked like they were gonna go down but they never did

its like me sitting here hoping to because an NBA star, its not gonna happen lol

I don't think "Hey so like, they spent a shit load of time training me up to ensure I was up to speed but then I fucking dipped cause I didn't want to do it, wasting their time" sounds very good to other companies

So I wanted to research the STUFF a bit more before I talked about it

So the guys above me want to start Adding on crap to the customer's orders with the MOST minimal of notice to them

like

Adding a warranty and just simply saying "Does this look okay?"

or "This is your total with the warranty"

Its a common rule that the customer is not listening to you. Thats why you have to pitch several times, to snap them out of their daze and make them pay attention to you.
This is exploiting that. I Thought MY Higher ups were making this up, but apparently they cleared it with Corporate "as long as you give them SOME warning". And I heard it mentioned this was gonna be a more widespread tactic

people have been FIRED for this
there was a guy who got fired for adding 1 dollar bags without telling people. THIS IS ALMOST THE SAME THING

I have said this many times, but I know the stories, I've been a customer too, sometimes (alot of times) the company is crap. I tried my hardest to make my store a really cool one. Even when I started in a lowly position. The customers go there for fun. They trust you and you have to build that trust. Then maybe you can start suggesting things and they'll listen to you.

this completely betrays that

this is gonna make people come back and do more returns and be angry. This is gonna BREAK trusts more than ever.

not only that, they are raising the required numbers by like, double. They are sort of "FORCING" us to do this and other stores are complying no problem.

Another thing thats going on is MY boss stepped down. I had to take his place for a few weeks (which I have never actually been trained for), but yea, its looking like I might get promoted again. I won't be at the store anymore. I already had my fill of things, but I don't want to do this.

So basically I'm at a crossroads. People say you don't like your job and you put up with it. Been like that for decades, hell, probably centuries, what am I talkin about. I make a DECENT wage, definitely more than I was, but...I just don't want to do this any more. And now I'm being sucked further in. My team is now only like 3 or 4 people. we used to be 10. But Corporate keeps screwing us and people bailed. Its probably my time now

all of my favorite moments are super simple
the genius of the Simpsons is adding a twist to something thats super normal
They're usually only funny in context, explaining them don't work sometimes

Lisa:"Dad I have something for you"
*Kiss*
Homer:"Aww I was hoping for money"

Sideshow bob rakes

That episode Bart is framed for killing Skinner
he barges in and Homer is like :"I thought he was dead!"

and finally
the Clown College one

Homer and Krusty are in the same room
"I'm seein double here!
FOUR KRUSTYS"

I personally didn't like the dub. I felt Levi being voiced by Matt Mercer didn't fit, and he made too many wisecracks

and alot of the VAs didn't feel right either.

Who does? I know some extremely bomb-ass pixel artists and they don't make close to living on it. It's supplemental at best.

Don't try to make it your living unless you know (within a reasonable chance) that it will work. Otherwise you'll burn out fast and start to feel about pixel art the same you feel about gamestop. That's the worst scenario and it's unfortunately common.
You're right though, thats why I wanna break into prints and stickers.

hell, apparently magnets have a market

but yea, I do know what you mean

I've always played it safe but this is me taking a chance

I do understand it becoming work changes things, but I wanna try

I've been trying to build a nest egg this past two years, I've been planning on this for awhile

of course, life tests me. I used alot of money trying to keep my kitten who passed alive at the vet

I had my wisdom teeth removed

etc

but yea.

Honestly, my plan is to do what I like. Imma try to sell sprites for a living.

Sometimes they struggle but people are making a living doing these things. Its an active, upwards fight. but It beats doing retail anymore. ESPECIALLY the store
