Right? I dunno how it was back in the old days but Clerks is maybe the worst representation of modern service workers I've ever seen. I've got a "hard labor" job and work about 1/4th as hard doing that than I ever did in service when I was younger

Superstore is the worst representation of retail work, I think they did about a week's worth of work max during the entire series.

One of the better ones is a British show called Trolled, they at least show them doing some form of actual retail work, still shenanigans, but they never leave the store to do them besides one or 2 episodes, plus it's a damn good comedy.
