    what is up with those inconsistent shifts

    just like, okay chubert, come in at 9:32a today, you'll work for 3 hrs and 12 minutes, then have a 16 minute break,

    They're all 8.5 hour shifts.

    there's no reason for them to start and end at random times if the store hours are consistent

    I've watched rad put together her store's schedule. Availability of different workers makes stuff swing back and forth a lot. She'll schedule herself to "clopen" before one of her people if she can.

    Don't. Everything is relative. Your issues are no less relevant just because your market value is comparatively less than others. That concept makes me literally irate.

    Moreso because I do make 6 figures but that's just pushing money around. Who gives a fucking fuck about that? You works somewhere people need to go for fucking food, a literal necessity for people to live. Your job matters more than mine does.

    it's getting dock space for your yacht that's the real killer

    I was arriving at an unfamiliar marina the other day on my 60 foot yacht but they send out their pilot boat to tell me the largest slip they had was only 48 feet! Can you imagine that? What kind of marina are they running there? As we got closer I could see it was filled with the sort of ... riffraff I wouldn't want to associate with - you know, the type of man who goes into the office every morning, heaven forbid -, so I'm glad to have avoided that calamity anyway, but still!

    I enjoyed clopening in retail, because every time I'd find something that pissed me off that the closers missed the night before, I could be like, "Ha, oh yeah, I'm such a dick to Future Narwhal."

    That's a nice sentiment Drez, but unfortunately like every facet of our entire society is kind of built to brutishly disagree, at least in practice if not in theory.

    a slip is the thing you pull a boat onto land with to do hull repairs not dock it and they're way longer than 60 feet and it's not the length of your dock space anyway its the width

    Man some of y'all have been out of retail for a while, huh? :P
    Even when I worked retail I had a reasonably consistent shift.

    I worked at a gas station and we had a 6a-2p shift, a 2p-10p shift, and a 10p-6a shift

    same start/end times for every shift, so you could at least plan your life a little without wondering if you'd need to come in a 1:45p or 12:00p or some random shit
    When I worked for 7-11 I worked a swing shift 11ish to 7 ish Thursday was inventory so that was 2 hours extra.

    At Media Play I did mornings. Because I wasn't retarded and could open.

    Definitely not the case in North America. A slip is a location at a marina where you pull in and moor your boat. The thing you pull it on to land with is just called a boat trailer.

    I don't have any plans or ability to buy a proper boat anytime soon but man I just want somewhere I can have like, a rowboat
