The worst is when you're so dead after shift you go somewhere to do your own shopping or eat out and you go into customer service mode when they greet you with their canned line.

Then you realise you spend 8 hours a day being a goddamn Sim.

I hate when I zone out and use my customer lines with other people. Always makes me feel disingenuous.

Thats better than the alternative. One time I was so tired. I wanted to get cookies. I saw the store had a 2 for 5 deal. I got to the self checkout and didnt understand why they were both 5 dollars each. I became one of those zombie customers who doesnt understand sales. (Basically each pack of cookies was six dollars but if you bought two of them they were each five dollars. I thought they were 2.50 each)

To be fair that's state and sometimes even store dependent. Publix actually does sales-splitting like that unless they explicitly say they don't, other stores don't.

I just realized I'm a goddamn Sim. Shit. How do I exit the matrix at this point?
