This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I worked a mailroom job with only about 3-4 hours of actual work a day. I was explicitly told I was free to spend any free time however I liked, so long as I stayed nearby.
I read books, gamed a bit, learned some programming and Linux server stuff... was pretty great actually. I only ever left that job because the offer was for twice as much pay. I often still miss the free time.
Yep I'm self employed now and still working my ass off but sometimes I day dream about just getting a job like you describe where you just have super low responsibility, simple tasks and lots of downtime. It's a shame this usually means shitty pay, so I'm more focused on making my skills valuable enough that I can work only a few days a month.
