I love it, but keep in mind I worked in that hellhole where even the dregs of society would look down on you. Any social skills I have came from putting up with that horse shit. I work at a decently expensive restaurant so that really filters out most, if not all the shitheads, and 90% of the tables I get are friendly, even have a few regulars that will tip $15-20 on a $10 bill.

I can fake being a normie extremely well, and it's gotten me an employee of the month plaque and almost everyone at my job loves me. But little do they know that when I get off, I immediately come home, close all the blinds and sit on 4chan and watch anime for the rest of the day because I'm a fucking loser with no gf ever.

Oh, and I'm ugly as fuck

Typo

It's 52k/year, which isn't massive but I can't expect banker number in my field plus I love what I do.

I work in an outpatient clinic with addicts and chronically mentally ill adults. The psychiatric clients are usually family referrals for low functioning adults. The addicts are referred by probation/drug court, etc.

The benefits are solid though, so it's fine for the time being.

Retail/fast food jobs are the easiest to get. Just walk into the store and ask to speak with the manager, and if they like you then they'll hire you on the spot. Just make up previous related experiences during the interview and on the resume. They never check. Good luck!

I was planning on moving away this summer, but now I might be getting somewhere with my oneitis and I don't know if I can leave.
I know there's no happy ending to this regardless, so I might just leave, bawl my eyes out, and be done with it.

Finish my undergraduate and teach at a high school level. Maybe upgrade to a Masters degree after awhile.

If anyone has a Costco near them, it is a fantastic place to work. I'm in Canada but I've heard from foreign transfers that the American locations treat their employees just as well.
