    Haha as an office worker, I wish I wasn’t living paycheque to paycheque 🥲

    edit: also having done retail work, the retail politics are as bad, if not worse, than office politics

    This seems lopsided, there’s no way working in an office is worse than being so broke that a single setback will make you homeless. Unless that’s the joke and I’m just dense lol

      For most office workers, it’s both working in an office and living paycheck to paycheck.

    You don’t have to be in an office to have to deal with workplace politics, so the cashier potentially has the worst of both worlds.

      You can have an office job and still live paycheck to paycheck

        You can indeed, but I’ve done both retail and office work, and dealing with the public is just awful.
