One of the shared greentexts told a story of a person working as a bottomless pit supervisor who one day discovers that the pit in his charge is no longer bottomless. Unable to fix the issue, the person quits his job and becomes a regular pit supervisor instead. However, on his first day, he discovers that the new pit is bottomless (shown below). The tweet received over 13,200 retweets and 72,100 likes in 10 days.
