This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If you are paid $15/h that is 20% of $75. Don't you think that the clients you will serve will pay way more than that during an hour?

See, I don't need to think hypothetically. I lived it. This "you'll akshually make more money this way" is the shit owners spout so they don't have to pay you. Self-serving prop to feed those who don't know better, simply and completely untrue.

I used to love looking at my negative dollar paychecks showing my paltry 2.13 didn't even cover the fuggen taxes on my tips while the manager espoused that falsehood in the mandatory monthly meetings
