{"title": "How Much Money Am I Losing", "timestamp": 1728055730.732124, "description": "When people see [my film](https://blenderdumbass.codeberg.page/MoriasRace/), or how versed I am in computers, they are often confused. I work a minimum wage job as a cashier. And before that I worked a number of jobs all of which were minimum wage, or slightly above minimum wage. Those jobs aren't particularly challenging, unless they are physical. So I don't have very much to complain. As a cashier I actually enjoy working. I get to talk to various people. And get to sit in front of a computer all day long. So what is there to complain about? Yet, whenever people find out that I know programming or that I can do movies, they often assume that I should not \"waste my time\" at a job like this, and instead work something a bit more prestigious.", "author": {"avatar": "https://blenderdumbass.org/pictures/favicon.png", "bio": "Aka: J.Y.
