God I don't understand how people think this is cute

Sorry for the weird question, don't know how else to word it. Basically I'm job hunting and I'm realizing the dress code is gonna be an obstacle.

I exclusively wear skirts and dresses. Not for a religion -- I'm agnostic -- but for sensory reasons. I hate pants. I hate how they feel on my legs and I haven't worn them in almost 10 years now. I understand the need to wear pants for some jobs because they're ultimately safer than a flowy skirt, but one of the jobs I've applied to is a bank. I doubt the building is a skirt deathtrap behind the scenes.

Honestly the idea of having to wear pants is so upsetting I'm breaking down over it. It's so stupid but after I finally found a way to feel comfortable when I started wearing skirts, I don't think I can go back even if the job is better than my current one.

My only idea is to get some kind of doctors note but even that seems unlikely. Hoping for other ideas here.

it's almost like the rich are the ones actually running the country

yep when I applied to work at target a few years ago, there should have been absolutely no reason for them to not consider me but I took that thiny veiled screening test and wow I suddenly don't get a response.

Ive been considering getting one of these honestly. as an introvert there are just some days where I really don't want to talk to people but retail doesn't care about that and I need money. at least having some kind of gague seems better than just glowering and hoping i don't have to deal with small talk

more like eating more processed food. and I mean like 'gone through a cooking process' kind of way. We do a lot more now than just burn our meat and eat veggies raw to get nutrients. we simply just don't need to work our jaws so hard to get what we need

if only my wisdom teeth got the memo :+:

fuck the draft, make everyone spend a year or two in the service industry after high school

oo I have an answer of sorts! Humans are endurance predators, not ambush ones. We're meant to be moving often for hunts, standing still for long periods of time isn't what our body's good at.

I feel like a lot of modern society does whatever it can to ignore the fact that we're animals too

My favorite thing I learned while researching for writing was that hunter-gatherers worked less hours than the modern human ๐Ÿ™ƒ

iirc the article stated 'work' as when they hunted, not for stuff like cooking and crafting

It's called The Bride of Barbaroi for those wondering. Unless I misunderstood the translation it gets revealed that the main love interests are aunt and nephew.
