| At the time, [[places:615_south_center_street|Josh's new apartment]] was an hour walk away from Wendy's and as a result would play a role in his being late to work. This also factored in to Josh's decision to let one of his co-workers, Kent, crash at his apartment in exchange for rides to work. In addition to staying at Josh's apartment, Kent would also ask Cobra for gas money. | At the time, [[places:615_south_center_street|Josh's new apartment]] was an hour walk away from Wendy's and as a result would play a role in his being late to work.

| In the times where his tardiness was not due to oversleeping and unreliable transport, he struggled with misreading his work schedule. In a famous incident, [[incidents: pay day|Josh attempts to dye his hair black before he has to go into work.]] Mistakenly, he believed his shift started at 5 PM prompting a call from his manager when he did not show up. Josh would agree to come in at 4PM, dye stained heavily across his forehead and face. | In the times where his tardiness was not due to oversleeping and unreliable transport, he struggled with misreading his work schedule.

| Having real money coming in motivated Josh, and he aspired to move out of Clint's, to get off of SSI, and to buy a car and get his license. As many people do with their first jobs, Josh would end up blowing his weekly pay on non-essentials like tobacco, booze, wand making supplies, and energy drinks, without consideration for his monthly budget or savings. | Having real money coming in motivated Josh, and he aspired to move out of Clint's, to get off of SSI, and to buy a car and get his license.

| Corporate was threatening to shut down the location he worked at if they received another strike. The job at Loaf N' Jug was closer and would have paid more, but after learning that corporate was not going to close the store, Josh gave up pursuing the job. Early on, Josh's income was supplemented by SSI, which he would claim that he would only use for emergencies or rent. It would later be temporarily suspended as a result of letting [[characters:Couch Chris]] stay at his apartment and him making too much at Wendy's after they increased his hours. | Corporate was threatening to shut down the location he worked at if they received another strike against them.
