Hello, world. I’m MacDara Conroy, and this is my blog.


Farewell to the Porn Clerk

So the porn clerk is no longer a porn clerk.

Nineteen months is a fairly long tenure, even for a part-time gig. Added up, I think I’ve spent ten months part-time and seven months full-time at my store, over the last 2 1/2 years. I’ve lasted quite a while, considering how bad the place has gotten morale-wise over the past few weeks and months. Turnover’s been pretty high this year, and I can see it getting higher.

I’m hoping that three more weeks won’t kill me. That is, if they don’t throw me out on the street the day I hand in my notice. (That’s definitely a possibility.)

So long, Ali the ex-porn clerk. Your stories didn’t change my life, but they did help me put things in perspective. Thanks.
