minus-squareGot_Bent@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·6 months agoThis is the thirteenth year of my illustrious career in accounting. You really get to see the dark underbelly of humanity. I used to be a social person. Now I’m a misanthropic agoraphobe who generally avoids human interaction to the fullest extent possible.
