THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I love this so much, I feel like we've all been Retsuko at some point, the episode was overall pretty good, and was just funny in general.

Indeed. It's tragic that so few people watch this show. It's hilarious.

I thought as much from the first ep, but I see this will have some plot line to it. Well, I can sense things are gonna go wrong.

Man when Puko was telling Retsuko how exhausted she looked, I could totally relate. I uses to work at an awful job with a contract I couldn't end until 6 months after. That job sucked.

I hope Retsuko jumps on the opportunity but why do I feel like her friend's business proposal might fail? I hope not.

That pushy alpaca almost wasted more of Retsuko's time by forcing her to subscribe to a rewards card so good thing her friend was in town to save her. It's funny that Puko and even her coworkers know exactly what kind of person Retsuko is by nailing the stuff someone like her does even if it sounded very random especially with the socks bit.

While Director Ton's at his busiest doing very important business matters, Tsubone's being such a bitch towards Retsuko for forcing her to do the work she was supposed to do. It's a really relatable situation she's in. Puko's proposition might just be her ticket out of there but hearing her talk about how laid-back they all are and how they need someone responsible in the team makes me feel like they'll make her do all their work as well.

The part at checkout was too accurate. No I don't want to sign up for reward points, I just want to pay and leave.

I'm sorry, Retsuko. Us sales associates hate bugging you as much as you hate being bugged. I tone it back as much as I can, but it's still a job...

I hope Retsuko can someday quit her damn job and live her life.
Sometimes otakus are rejected by society, so I discovered that it is much better to be an
otaku in secret.

Ah different from the og one with shopping part one, so there's some old friend asking Retsuko to quit the job and join her with the business. I doubt its works out for Retsuko, but i feel like the episode really slapped me hard how relatable it is with the wanting to quit the job even though its hard to make the decision till now...
