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:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That's just not how people introduce themselves out in the real world though.

What do you think is different compared to when you join some new company, training or club and you are asked to present yourself to the group?

That happens a lot less than you think. And I try to avoid clubs etc that do that nonsense.

I have done this innumerable times at multiple jobs. Maybe it happens a lot more than you think

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Maybe I just have a good job.

I've had great jobs, introducing yourself at meetings that include people you don't know is just part of it
