For when you need a laugh!
The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!
But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

What skills are required?
Friendly demeanor, store knowledge, people skills in general.
Did you think about this for half a second, or did you just want to try and punch down?
What's the point of defending the existence of a bullshit job like that? A skill is something you can learn, can improve, and can be adapted.
None of that applies to a "greeter". Of course it's a subjective notion: a craft that takes ten years to master is skilled, a job that has you productive within a single day doesn't. "skill" is a gradient, so the label "unskilled" is in itself meaningless.
You know what else is a gradient? Size. Does that make terms like "big" and "small" meaningless? Just about everything in this universe exists on a spectrum.
