    I never got good at it. Well, for a retail job, anyway.

    It’s too draining to do that for a whole shift, then it starts to come across as fake

    This strip highlights one of the reasons I have such a hard time keeping a job. I have Schizoid PD and combined with Depression and Anxiety and Paranoia, I am incapable of feigning politeness.

    Thankfully, interactions on my current job with people are short, and I don’t have to worry about them reading my expressions.

    This is what I call “playing the game”. We pretend to be ok for so long that after a while it becomes second nature.

    I think this is why I enjoy lyrical dissonance in my songs so much (happy music and sad lyrics). You think I’m happy? You think I’m fine? Look closer. LISTEN.

    Unfortunately no one I know seems to pay attention to the lyrics normally…

    I also frequently lack the energy to keep this up. I’m not really “employee material.” 🙂

    Haha wow, I actually work at “Coffee Star” *cough cough* and this hits dangerously close to home, especially when it feels like you just want to walk off your shift and stand in front of a train. As depressing as it is. thank you for this. I’ve just been coming off a really shitty week, and it will be the anniversary of my dad’s passing coming up soon. Trying to fight it, but you know how that song and dance is.

    Aha, precisely what I commented on an earlier comic. Little did I realize my binge would lead me to exactly what I was talking about.

    That so expensive smile that every costumer thinks that is cheap.
