Just a Heathen, Losing Their Mind

We’re about to get personal, ya’ll. 

I suffer from cPTSD, Anxiety, Major Depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, and ADHD. 

And it has affected the way I work, how I interact with people, and how I function.  I thought that I was able to hold down a basic job, cashiering, but I had a break down and had to quit. I thought that it was just the stress of dealing with people all day. 

So, I got a job as a produce assistant, and was doing a lot better, but there was a lot of drama at work, and I had a break down. It broke my heart, because I really want to work, I want to have something to do to earn money. 

So here I am, applying for other jobs, trying to find a place where I fit. 

I wear a Valknut pendent, usually tucked under my shirt. I was working and it came out.

Didn't realize it. So,uh. This couple comes through my line and starts loudly whispering that I must worship Satan.

Kept at it.

When they left, I told them to have a blessed day.

I had a.full blown panic attack at work.

I'm currently looking for a job, and have put in an application to a larger chain retail store.

I currently work in a smaller one.

And the one I'm moving to has better benefits, better hours, better pay, etc. etc. etc.

But I also love some of the people at my current store and don't want to upset them.

"Do you do price match?"

No ma'am, this is a smaller chain store....

"Well then, I'll take my business elsewhere!"

I'm sorry you feel that way.
