we're closed on thanksgiving but are getting paid for the day regardless... sounds fake but okay

but yeah, getting together with coworkers and one of them loves to cook so I'm excited...

and one of them agreed to just clopen on wednesday since we're only open til 8... so two days off. \o\

aww coworkergiving

cute ;u;

that sounds fun!! it's good also that you're getting paid for thanksgiving...

that a thing people are normally paid for...

I'm new to this...

but yeah it should be fun!!

some holidays are paid for...

whoa... adulthood is fascinating.

right??

my manager is really awesome and helping me make sure i get paid for thurs and fri even though i... will not be working lol

what a good

but i'm happy to have you back nemo!!

leans on you aggressively

pats you reassuringly

you know i actually always got paid for christmas/thanksgiving and... i think just those two

while i was at shitty retail jobs

other holidays would do 1.5x pay but only if you were scheduled

still sounds fake!!

(subway was a dark and terrible place)

i was always angry that i didn't get paid an increased wage during thanksgiving/black friday shopping bs when i was working retail

blrgh yeah

just... the pitiful amount i was being paid hourly was not worth me dealing with all those people, harsh laugh...

speaking of black friday I think we're going out for that too, which I've vowed to never do but I guess I should see how it is once...

oh god

the only black friday bs i will ever do is digitally or online... i can't put up wit hthat

it's going to feel like going into an animal shelter and looking at all the kicked puppies and kittens............

I feel you, retail industry...... I'm sorry I'm here when I can't help you...

it's The Worst

why is american capitalism like this

experience the soullessness for yourself firsthand i'm sure it'll be fun

no..... I probably won't buy anything anyway maybe I'll ditch before they go...

we'll see how much of my internal monologue is that in the arms of an angel song they play over those stupid commercials with the sad dog montage

which will probably be most of it

omg

but other than that, coworkersgiving gon be gr8

GOOD im glad

i think im gonna cook a mess of sweet potato hash and some chicken and just kinda veg out for a few days... well, and possibly apply to some jobs but hfhg

sweet potatoes!!!!!!!

if we ever meet irl nemo i will have to make some sweet potato hash for u!

i am not a good cook but it's one of the few things i can do

i make mine savory with bacon and onion and it's really good imo ...

you must, that sounds amazing... anything with a sweet potato in it is perfect, sweet or savory

omg...

i would make it more often but chopping vegetables is a hassle

ah I feel u.

mostly because im not skilled with a knife so it takes me 2x longer than a normal person because i'm very carefully making sure not to cut off a digit

idk what she all has planned for food, I think it's just all traditional thanksgiving stuff, plus some crazy fancy cocktails.

mmMmmMmm

ah :'D

we'll probably get drunk then our coworker that doesn't drink will drive us to our stores and we'll all lay out bread for the next day like a dysfunctional family.....

oh that'll be my chance to ditch black friday, I live like 2 minutes from my store.

perfect.

I'm saved.

I should probably contribute food to this, but she said she's got like 90% of it covered... I'll try to bring something nice anyway.

bothers u back

bothers harder!!

nO THERE'S A TEAR IN MY FAVORITE JEANS...............................

collapses

cries

slowly digs out the mom jeans...

ah ty..... I can probably patch it when I get time to, at least, it's not like right in the crotch or anything.

u can even patch those ones

my life changed when i realized that

whoa

getting intense

whoa

DEEP SIGH buys pokemon on the walk past gamestop........

I got sun..

!!!!!

sun is the one that has the murderous spiders

in moon they're sweet and loving

good choice

good

and I like bats and all but I feel like I have some kind of sun lion aesthetic to maintain...
