HOME DEPOT: Congratulations! You advanced in the candidate pool. Click here to access additional assessments needed for Parking Lot Attendant. *click* HOME DEPOT: Sorry. We sent this opportunity to multiple candidates and too many completed the assessments before you.

You can't make this up. I'm sitting here writing an article about exploitative landlords when I get a wayward text message from a random landlord raising somebody's rent $1,050! Welp, that's going in the article.

Due to poverty-maxxing, I switched from buying the flat of 24 little protein shakes and started buying a single, larger protein shake the day before I donate plasma. Now, I'm diarrhea-maxxing all over the place. 😭

The audacity!! Blue Cross called and gave me a heads up that my tax return might be garnished to pay for the insurance my dad opened in my name on the marketplace last year. Haaaa. No need to yell at my dad again, but next year is gonna be wild! That return was gonna help me avoid homelessness. 🤣

First phone interview down, two to go! One job I could see myself not loving, but keeping for a year to patch up my résumé. The other two I'd probably pull my classic move of soaking up the orientation & training week money then disappearing.

I just want a little fuckin' alien or fantasy creature to appear and hand me my destiny. Why I gotta apply for jobs I don't want?? 😭

Yes, unfettered capitalism kills. I believe we need to establish democratic socialism, outlaw billionaires and insider trading, punish those who are derelict in their obligations to citizens, and establish oversight for the executive branch. Oh, and ban fascism.

MONDAY. OK. OK. Job searching again. I think I'll only apply for part-time work. I seem unable to dive into a full-time schedule. I need maybe four hours a day to build better habits. Exactly 60 days until homelessness!

Be me trying to explain to my non-Pokémon fren, Shim Sham, that the shiny Tyranitar I caught at his wedding just gained perfect IVs in a lucky trade with my dad. #PokemonGO

I probably shouldn't have shared the Marriott Bonvoy friends & family discount with my parents as soon as I joined the Ritz-Carlton, because when I rage quit they immediately got an email saying their benefits were canceled. 😅

So I arrive at the plasma clinic five steps behind this kid with a motorcycle helmet, who holds the door for me. Except inside, I'm now ahead of him at the computer. So I step aside so he can still be first, and he says, "No, I insist." 🥹 I'm not used to kindness.

That was awkward. HR called and reminded me to bring something to my first scheduled shift on Monday that I already dropped in the mail last night along with the rest of my rage-quit starter pack. Annnd *block*.

Netflix made $10 billion in profit last year, and just laid off 1,000 people who worked to build that wealth. If you haven't already, delete Facebook, cancel Amazon Prime, and unsubscribe from all the MAGA streaming apps (so, all the streaming apps).

Urge to drop my employee ID and parking pass in the mail rising... Why am I like this?? Lmao. How did I work for 15 straight years in mentally taxing positions without any problems??
