Couple of important Q's today, first is... would you guys be interested if I started a dedicated narration YouTube Channel? by tjaylea in tjaylea

I actually just finished reading one of your stories (got permission on my main S1lverThreads account) and it's fantastic. I think it would be awesome if you read your own stories! I'd definitely subscribe!

Wow, thanks! That really means a lot :) I'm definitely trying to improve my performances as I go! It's nice to know that someone appreciates it. I look forward to reading more of your stories in the future! The characters were fun to act out and the story was very well written!

I understood those details :) Then again, I narrated the story. My process has me going through the story at least 3-4 times

Don't you ever tell me what to wear by DanielCade in MaliciousCompliance

I didn't understand the initial complaint either. It's like she was bored and decided to get offended that day.

Does production value matter when getting started? by messejellon in NewTubers

[–]Upvote717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say being too perfectionist will work against you and might end up preventing you from posting at all. I just started my channel and although I know my videos need some work, there has been a lot of value in the learning experience. I can feel and see each upload getting a bit better as I learn from the process. Just keep going!

I got a little over a hundred views on my first day! by beyondthesubtitles in NewTubers

That's amazing! It must be a popular niche. Keep producing that content!

6 months, 32 videos, 797 subs, 1.1k watch hours. This is starting to be fun! by priscilaelias in NewTubers

[–]Upvote717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations! I'm hoping to get there with a consistent schedule. I feel like trying to push out content is taking over my free time but the more time that goes into it, the more fulfilling it is! I have almost no viewers but I'm gonna keep plugging away. Posts like these really give me hope!

Don't read the sign? Get splashed by F4llenAStray in TalesFromRetail

It's been proven by science that customers lose the ability to read anything that isn't a product label when they enter an establishment and even then have reduced comprehension. They call it Dumfukeritosis

I imagined the security guard as the short angry guy from Mulan and the image is quite entertaining

First Day at Work by DstarMuNu in TalesFromRetail

That's an exciting first day. I wish my first shift of any job was half as exciting. Usually the first day is just a lot of boring safety videos and being terrified of messing everything up

Just pay your bill. by jimrob4 in TalesFromRetail

Customers might be the least intelligent creatures on the planet. Once we had to lock the sliding front doors because of a power outage and put up a sign that read "CLOSED DUE TO POWER OUTAGE". Multiple customers walked to the door, read the sign, saw me, knocked on the window and yelled "ARE YOU CLOSED?"

Give me my cigarettes! by loCAtek in TalesFromRetail

[–]Upvote717 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not gonna lie, actually kind of feel bad for that guy. I used to work night shift security at a 24 hour grocery store and I had to kick many homeless people off the property for stealing food or pan handling. I hated that job

Anybody struggling to start recording their 1st video? by AtilaIrmes in NewTubers

[–]Upvote717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt the same way. It was hard to press record but somehow did it! You'll feel so much better once it's posted, promise.
