Comment on Being a "sleeper agent" sounds awesome. "You just want me to chill and be a normal dude... for money. Yeah put me down for 5 years, make it 10 actually.

  Now I must hear what it is you do, that being used as target practice is a part of your current life.

    Retail management. I recently left my job as a district manager for a dollar branded store chain.

    I also in my free time help abused people get to the shelters.

    I’ve been shot at three times 2 were protecting women leaving, once a banned customer who saw me out on a walk.

      Seems like you need to go get a bodyguard certification so you can fight back.

      I bet you’re talking about dollar tree or one of the chains they have. Really doesn’t surprise me; the management for that company is a few hairs short of a slumlord. Stay safe

        I think the dude replying to me is a dissatisfied sleeper agent.

        “The don’t pay your bills, you need certificatation and barb at the service desk is mean to me!”

        Dude wear unionizing, don’t fight me, join me!

  I’ve been deemed expendable by companies and people have shot at me.

  That’s not the typical experience… Mind elaborating a little?

    I did in another comment.

    More importantly five people liked that comment so it’s not as uncommon as you think

    To use silly fake math 5 likes on lemmy is 100,000 on Reddit. That means 104 billion people have experienced it.

    The less funny answer is, I’ve worked corporate jobs, and I’ve unfortunately seen people die. I’ve seen the math that goes into that. I’m kinda a safety nut now. “No ones going to pay you if you die watch out how you stack that. You have an arbitration agreement “
