I get roughly $950ish a month and I do fine, but then again I only pay $400/mo in rent plus utilities and also have food stamps.

The actual rent is $193/mo, but I also pay for electricity and internet, which brings it up to around the $400 mark.

Only reason I pay so little in actual rent is because the building I'm in is specifically reserved for the elderly and disabled, and calculates your monthly rent based on how much you get per month from the government.

Yes, Retail.
It has gotten progressively worse for me of late.
I think I am working on a plan B at this point.

Barring the eventual curing/massive suppression of my psychological disabilities, nothing. Just gotta keep being a defective piece of shit.

I used to work retail. I actually dont think its a bad gig if you are in a small store and you only have 2-4 people working a day. Its pretty chill and there is not much to clean or anything.

Casual breakfest resturant.

Every day my soul dies more.

IT is non functional
Corporate is incompetent
Our staff barely exists
Our supply line is a mess
Our building is old, poorly designed and in dire need of several repairs and renovations.

And our guests are fat, stupid, oblivious demanding fuckwads who have no sense of time, or empathy and a complete inability to conduct themselves in an orderly fashion regardless of signage, being regulars or being outright how things are.

Ya, that is one of the problems at my place....it's huge and there a ton of Diva co-works.
But even when there are a ton of people on shit is still not getting done.

Ya, there is a ton of this. I swear I don't understand how some of people made it this far in life.
Plus they are needy as fuck. "Oh, could you help me with this out." ...Yet never tip.
They don't know how shopping carts work. "Where do I put this?" Where you got it mother fucker.

And the people who name drop the former owner...who from what I can was a psycho bitch.

All that and they just hired someone who seems to go of his way to make me uncomfortable...pretty much ever shift.
^^That might be the thing that pushes me out.
