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.

When you're young and need money, a dead-end job is better than no job. Fund your search for higher sights to set

When need money

think you can simplify that equation

Nah, trust fund babies exist, and old people may actually have worse outcomes from working a labor-intensive job just to pay bills

old people was my point, it's not limited to youth who need money, our society takes the elderly and jerks them around into the labor force.

The tragic part of spending all one's time & energy in a dead end job, just to barely financially survive, it kinda drains you (physically, mentally, emotionally, morale, creatively, sucks out all your life force) and that's where the tragic dead end truly begins.
