Also, have you considered changing jobs? I get a strange feeling you're not very happy in your current one.

Also, does the U.S. not have some sort of regulation that limits the amount of working hours per week, or is that communism? :unsure:

There's no limit. You get time and a half pay after 40 hours. But the catch is, and I dunno if this is a NC thing or federal, but I noticed after you get past 48 hours or so they bump you into a higher tax bracket and you start making less. Like when I worked 8 hour shifts at this one place and we worked 6 days, I would get like $100 extra but if we worked 7 I only got $50 extra for the 7th day.

I dunno why they don't just get plexiglass. I'm Florida there was a corner store next to my house and after a few gun in the face interactions ol' Ishmael wisened up and put some thick plexiglass up.

Back around 91 I used to get take out from this Chinese place during my short stint in Brooklyn where they operated entirely behind plexiglass. They had no inside service and as far as I could figure it would’ve been impossible to rob the place. They had three options A B and C and they all cost ten bucks and were ****ing incredible.

One time I was watching Cops and a place with a similar design had some guy stick their gun in that little hole where the food and money was exchanged and shot the Chinese guy in the ass. He had to be thinking why the **** did I move here, I swear. But the place I went to had it so that opening was only vulnerable for split seconds. They had this wheel thing that locked and only they could move it by pushing down on their side.

Yeah up in Rhode island the corner store I went to at night was outside only with plexiglass. They know how to do it up north.

Some people think you can just give them the money and you'll be safe. You hope you'll be safe. Down in Florida robberies turn deadly sometimes cause it's a gang initiation.

NGL I've stuck up some corner stores. It's a dumb ****ing thing to do though cause you don't get more than 200$ and if you get caught you face the same type of time you would face if you hit a bank with a note.

it's just an easy target for petty robbery. I was young and stupid. I don't do **** like that anymore. Don't even steal anymore. I was always been too scared to rob a bank though. Like I don't care morally but I'm just sketched out by the security. I know someone who was in for 14 years for a bank robbery.

Nah you never target mom and pop Asian corner stores. In Florida it was Muslims. Those are the people who might shoot back.

You go for a chain where a minimum wage employee isn't going to bat for the register.

They’re fighting over if that litigation clause is going to be in the next relief package (that will definitely not include another check)

Nothing on the table addresses the issues of the truly impoverished as far as I’m aware

The talking head on the NewsHour said the only reason we got the first one was because Trump wanted it. Neither party would’ve ever supported that on their own. Which leads me back to the idea that Trump is the greatest president of all time and we need to make sure we count every LEGAL ballot.

Isn’t that already standard procedure whenever a black person tries to enter?
