[It took him about forty minutes to decide on a username and then try and post to the network. Of course, it was probably better to just be anonymous, but that felt like being too much of a coward. Still, he couldn't really avoid it anymore, he had already secluded himself away for a month. Without work to force him out, it was all getting too difficult.]

I'm sorry to intrude on any discussions. I was wondering if there are different ways to generate an income here other than through physical contact. Are there ways to pay for things without needing to touch another person?

It seems that those methods are very important to the people here, but, there must be alternatives, right?

Thank you.

just get a job, man ... if you're askin for free money right now that probably won't work

[somaru]

I am definitely not asking for free money, I'm not that sort of shameless person.

[nipzips]

is it really that shameless ... [ He would ask for free money. It's not like he's forcing anyone to give it up! ]

if you need some work, the cat cafe i work at is always looking for extra hands

[somaru]

[It felt like this place thrived off part time work.]

Of course it is.

[He could barely ask for help from friends, let alone money from strangers!]

Thank you, though I must decline on that.

[nipzips]

that's cool

do you dislike cats?

[somaru]

I don't mind cats.

[For a moment he didn't connect the two statements./i>]

Ah, it isn't because of the cats.

[nipzips]

oh ... it's probably not the kinda job you wanna do, huh?

[ Sorry, he's a chatty guy so he's just trying to make conversation. ]

[somaru]

Something like that. I don't really handle interactions of that nature very well.

[nipzips]

Interactions of what nature? you'll just be asking people what they wanna order and shit

[somaru]

I am not good with contact with others, even... small ones.

[nipzips]

[ Nope, he doesn't get it at all. ]

uhhh, why not? most people are pretty nice and chill

[somaru]

It's not that I'm scared of people, it's....

It's a condition. I can't stand physical contact with other people, or things unless they are sanitized.

[He didn't want to come out and say it, but this person wasn't taking the hint.]

[nipzips]

so you're a germaphobe or whatever? didn't know there were actually people like that

then do you not go out at all?
