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!

Oh they definitely did that too, but day workers got paid less yet had to deal with more since they would constantly need to interact with people or dodge customers (me every time I'm at the store now). Not enough people want to work like 10 pm to 6 am the next day though. Other than that, we were just expected to stock more shit more quickly since nobody was really bothering us.
EDIT: Honestly, night shift is super sick if it doesn't kill your social life. I also worked at a hotel during night shift where I basically played emulators on my phone unless someone showed up to check in or ask for something in the middle of the night.
