Convenience store
This damn convenience store 00 (223.39) Views 932023.12.30 10:27 ▲ Notification Hey on Saturday, Dec 30th, I hope our dictator is having a good weekend ~ I'm so grateful that you always work hard, faithfully, and diligently. Even just seeing your shadow I nag lol but did I save the country in my past life?? ~~ A blessing came rolling in so I brag here and there and thanks to you I'm living comfortably, or so they say. Other convenience stores are struggling like crazy, but you know I love you a lot right? Do you know my heart though lol ~~

Sorry for the weekend but if you have time swing by the store real quick ~ I'll leave it to the wife in the morning and afternoon. Still, I grabbed some department store girl and agonized over it before buying, but I'm not sure if it'll suit my taste. I'm buying a watch but they even threw in wine lol. I put in money too so I hope you'll buy gifts for our parents and get some good meat to eat together ~ hehe
7:46 AM
Next year please nag me just a little less ~~
7:48 AM
Thank you.
9:32 AM
Nothing more to say, right? ~

Please prep the January event card in advance. Lots of 20-year-old customers come after midnight. Keep refilling drinks and alcohol.

Then take even the fish I caught
A robot?
Is it your fun age or your mom's age? What is it?
I didn't want to respond so I made the robot do it

Shitty convenience store ㅇㅇ ( 223.39 ) Views 155 2026.05.14 15:49
I came back after a long time since the gallery still exists.
1. The reason I only communicated via text was because photos and files disappear from KakaoTalk after a certain amount of time, so it became fixed as text. The biggest reason was that the store manager kept creating new group chats, which made existing employees and former employees uncomfortable 2. The store manager also knows about it. Since they travel all over the country, they're genuinely fun. I didn't know I'd become this famous, but the two management managers at the time noticed and suggested good opportunities with 5 major companies, and I even did internships at 3 of them, but I rejected the offers because it seemed like I'd just be harassing store managers or performing only those tasks. Despite having methods like job support, government subsidy bidding, delivery, discounts, app system improvements, etc., headquarters didn't even seem willing to cooperate.
There are a lot of problem customers. I hope everyone working there takes care of themselves and stays healthy.
Are you still ordering like this?

The kind of person who excels anywhere + found a good boss
Wow that's wild lol
This is the most wholesome thing I've seen all week, we need more people like this fr
Wow, people who work with integrity no matter what role they're in really can go anywhere
What lol
Honestly suits them as a civil servant lol
Same thing happens in civil service too.. not my problem to worry about lol
Convenience store managers start at like 5k salary and they just left it to become a civil servant??
For that person money wasn't the priority—their principles were
Might not even be a 9-level position
It's called 'administration' but it's basically self-employment with people breathing down your neck or being the scapegoat, so it's not easy to stay if you only care about money
The boss must be feeling the pressure too lol
Honestly convenience stores are sketchy too. It's not a legitimate way to earn money—it's the exact same predatory franchise structure where the headquarters bleeds the franchisees dry. If you start a business there you'll probably die lol
Wow that's absolutely wild lololol
Even convenience store headquarters workers get their bonuses and evaluations wrecked if they don't hit their quotas, so both sides end up doing shady stuff—people place huge overstock orders and end up having to personally absorb all the excess inventory themselves
What the hell, it's like watching old Lotte Confectionery execs. They ran their numbers with their own money too lol
The boss is so cute lol what lol wow that's wild lololol
Okay but WHERE is the full story because I'm invested now and need to know what happened 😭
lmaoooo this guy really said 'I'm not just scanning items' and became a superhero, respect
Finally someone documenting the REAL mvps, convenience store workers literally keep society running
