This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Oh, definitely. And having 2 part time jobs, if you can manage it, often means you end up working more hours (25+25), and are still not given the benefits of a full time employee because you aren't technically full time anywhere. It's terrible and for what it's worth I do feel bad for anon here. They are drinking the right wing kook aid, which sucks, but it's an awful position to be in. There's comments calling them a moron or that they just have to make minor changes etc, but the reality is, especially in these small towns, there's not a lot of options and acting like it's the fault of individuals is really missing the point.
For what it's worth, Obamacare did technically add to the employer burden by making good healthcare a mandatory offering for full time employees, so I understand why some people have convinced themselves it's the ACAs fault, but employers were doing the 25 hours thing to skirt other benefits way before Obamacare.
