in paper yeah the pragmatic solution would work

the next problem though is the asinine amount of people who bring their boxes to customer service stuff and expect the store to take care of it the trash can would only work if people were either asked to break down their boxes (unlikely) or if it was mechanically able to break down the boxes for the person. then there’s the next problem of making it idiot proof because crunching machines and flesh don’t work well together.

sorry I’m extra salty because I just got back from a shift were I deal with these kind of people for the whole day. there’s no winning.

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

If you want to watch a similar experience that doesn’t ruin other people’s days, I recommend checking out Vagrant Holiday’s videos! The guy tries to spend the least amount of money possible while traveling without being an asshole. he’s even done a video in Japan! I should really binge his stuff again
