Blurb
Working is hard. But it is fun.
The main character, Kamo, works a wide variety of part-time jobs in in a world where people are a little bit different. She makes mistakes, but her unwavering dedication makes her look for her own identity in this strange world. Somewhat dark, warm, and odd stories from Higashi Yamakita's mysterious world.

ちょっとだけ変な世界でアルバイト - that title explains the premise perfectly. We follow the protagonist through 10 page short stories in manga form, which always play out at a different work place where she’s helping out for the day, and because the world is indeed “just a little bit weird” she’s dealing with interesting customers -e.g. robot customers at a coffee shop, or a ghost child at a photograpy studio- and the unique challenges these situations bring.
There is a bit of an overarching story line, but it's very thin and only appears near the end. Until then it's mostly episodic. Sometimes there’s a bit of a surprising twist, and sometimes the story just feels surprisingly (considering the non-human characters) mundane and relateable.
But more than anything, the stories feel warm.
I liked it a lot, and even as someone not usually into slice of life or short stories I think this is great, especially for the rather low difficulty level.
