>>78208 Sharing alcohol amongst strangers uninhibited is a way to invite danger and unnecessary drama, too. I have issues with drunken people pretty much every day I work second or third shift. Really, it depends on the person you're dealing with. Generally the people that shop at my store are honest, hardworking, but financially disadvantaged. I've even seen a guy get arrested right in front of me for robbing a local's apartment. Tonight I actually got to see that guy for the first time since he got arrested. I guess he's on parole now. He's a decent person aside from being an accomplice in some delinquent's robbery. That delinquent's father actually visits our store pretty much every day. After they got arrested, he just talked shit about his son pretty much every time he showed up, haha. The person who was robbed visited as well, but she seems to have recovered mostly from the robbery, after notifying the various businesses they returned her stuff at.
Also the alcohol laws here are quite archaic, I know. Until 2015, you could not even sell liquor in my city AT ALL. The bars have since expanded their menus incredibly, of course, and various locally owned liquor stores have popped up with excessive success.

People are gonna get it one way or another and it has massive demand unlike many other highly licensed or illicit products.
It's just really weird how alien your life is to mine.
>>78210 That's what you think but I have met people who act like it is the end of the world they can't buy their booze or cigs at the local 7-11 Just today in fact I heard someone open the door to the beer and I said "Time's up!" and they responded with a "B-BUT I ALREADY HAD IT WHEN YOU SAID THAT"
Alien how?

Partly due to the aspects of lower income environments. Like, I've never really experienced interpersonal relationships with people from that social class so it's a life I just don't really "get". I can sympathise but I've always been an observer looking in. And then there's the more inane details like the alcohol cutoff which is just funny and unreasonable to me. Here if a store is open and sells alcohol, you can buy alcohol. It's as cut and simple as that. People like to rag on our two countries for being super similar in culture but personally, I've found there to be pretty clear divides. But this has kinda gone a bit all over the place 'cause I'm getting tired.

"I see," I say, nodding to myself. Looking towards the other two, I ask "you two finished here?"

I'm making an advice thread here to ask people for some help on some concerns, but it's not necessarily centrally focused around me. I just wanted to talk about more RL things without being disruptive to the flow of the other thread. There's a lot of work stress i'm trying to cope with, and financial management that's just a bit overwhelming. It feels more appropriate for me to phrase concerns in the first post rather than on the OP so I'll do that in a bit once i formulate it.

how do i save and make money when im on a salary and have payments
>>76247 I think adapting to society while carving out your own niche to be personal and eccentric in is a fairly global idea. At least within the modernized world.
i just want to make enough money that i can feel safe
and then i want to do dangerous things but in a way that i control the danger
