The funny thing about getting that job at McDonalds in 1978, They’d only been opened for a short while so my mom picked me up from school (it was the last school day of the year) and drove me straight to McDonalds where I went in, filled out an application and submitted it. I think they contacted me the next day to tell me I was hired. I worked there all thru the summer and during my entire…

Also, when we leave the game, does the player avatar disappear too?

Like, I'm a big boy, not some hyper-spoiled royalty or 18-th century peasant grandma, I can carry my food to the table, I can put my bread up to the scanner. I don't want half the waking life of a human being dedicated to this kind of task

They're in a miserable position, I see it, but have to treat them like a surf because otherwise I can't get my groceries or food fancier than a trashy burger otherwise, so I'm miserable too. No fun for anyone

I know there are disabled tech-illiterate grandmas who need such options, but, like, most people don't. Like two cashiers and as many self-checkouts as you can get is the best, same for waiters and "ORDER 69420 READY"-s

I'm a cashier at a large corporate dollar store chain (guess it with your friends!) and really my entire job comes down to being a stocker that primarily spends most of my time doing Not That and instead checking out customers.

But like, self-checkout is a thing. So why is my input necessary? Trust. I am being used as a guard to keep people from just taking stuff. But in an absolute collectivist sense, why can't people just take what they need? We live in a time of excess, so what if some people don't pay for, say, food or water. Water used to be free. Food is free if you grow it or hunt it yourself. Ultimately you're not paying for the calories, you're paying for the shape they're in. Likewise, they aren't paying me to cashier, anyone can do that for themselves, they're paying me because they don't trust someone unpaid to check out properly.
