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!

Yep
I've held several jobs in retail and service and they've all been painfully awful
Like drive me to the verge of suicide awful
I made it into data entry and everything is so much better
Fucking wackadoo that I get paid more now than when I was actually doing stuff
What do I need to get a data entry job, other then luck? I already do a tiny bit at my current job so I could put it on my resume but its very much a side part of the job.
Lying will get you 60% of the way there
I took some information science courses in college, so that became an "accredited training program" and wham-o, I started getting interviews
The other 40% is confidence, as in, selling the lie to their face
