One thing I noticed about the original NNS is how “Humans are Bastards” was one of its most prominent themes. Like, when the most morally sane people in your comic are a group of a snarky and kinda d-bag teenagers, you know the world that they live in sucks.
The reboot, I noticed, still follows that trend. However, it dials it back a bit in favor of the characters being more likable. The snark is still absolutely plenty, but the characters overall are more supportive of each other and act like douchebags at worst rather than at best (barring Jessica, who was unexpectedly off the deep end [no joke intended]).
Frankly, its easier to root for your protagonists when they’re in a genuinely relatable situation, rather than being dismissive of everyone and everything around them because “rebellion” or whatever.
She absolutely right. I don’t care how smart a person is — the minute they enter a retail outlet of any kind, they lose about fifty IQ points and any sense of human decency.
The people who ditch their shopping carts in the checkout lane are a special kind of douchebag.
I bet the new girl is Valerie, Chris.
14 1/2 years in the “Evil Retail Empire”…and that is 1000% true.
Heeeeeeey, who’s the NEW girl?
Ho hey she is super cute 😮
That’s the problem with the “customer is always right” mentality — it gives the customer absolute power, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Yeah, that pretty much sums up a retail job right there. Oh, and Hi Patricia.
