This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Cyber forensics have a huge turnover rate.

Most of the work you will be doing is rarely tracking down hackers, it's finding someone's illegal collection of their computer. Then you get asked over and over about it.

If you think you are hardened by the internet, you are wrong. You will break when you multiply it then you have to talk about it. The talking about it is out loud will make a lot pf people break after the volume.

But what gets the truly hardened ones is having to face the victims... They know what you saw and the see you without your computer to hide your identity. You look at their face and you can see their pain.

You realize it is real.

And reality hits hard.
