Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Fucking god! A small business hired me to do IT, run cables, manage their websites and networked hardware, etc. and when I showed up they just started giving me shifts behind the counter at the gas station they owned.
Worse yet, the owner thought it was still 1955 and had all the gas pumps set up so that you could just start filling up without any form of pre-payment and if (when) you drove off without paying, they'd take the cost of the stolen gas out of the counter employee's wages.
Everyone who swiped their card at the pump before filling instead of coming into the convenience store after filling would not be charged.
