People always gloss over how mentally damaging it can be to work in retail. I fucking hate that whenever I say “I could never work in retail again” someone has to reply “You snowflake millennials can’t take a starter job because you have to INTERACT with other people” No. Fuck you. I’ve worked as a planetarium host. I’ve worked as a public speaker. I’ve worked as a tutor and as a student teacher. I can work with people. I can work with crowds. Retail was fucking different. Retail was being treated as a subhuman. Retail was being treated so poorly that you have anxiety attacks before work. Having to work retail was a factor in my last suicide attempt. If I hear you say one fucking word about retail workers playing the victim I will personally break every bone in your body. Fuck You.
The holidays are coming up. Retail workers are going to be spiraling into a nightmare beyond human comprehension. If you’ve worked retail, you know this. If you haven’t, be aware of it. Please be kind to every retail worker you come across. Please be patient and understanding. It is misery out there.
doesn’t it piss you off corporations act like you were born to see ads. why it’s so bad for trying to escape them??? the way it’s okay for websites to make ads sooo annoying you feel like you have no choice but buy premium. and even then you can’t escape ad reads. i don’t want to waste hours of my life skipping ads. finding the x button. or being woken by an ad that pops at the end of 3 hours long white noise video. using spotify without premium is a nightmare. i hate how ads are everywhere and somehow it’s normal to say ‘if you don’t want to see ads on youtube and use adblock then you’re stealing from them!’ what. i’m gonna install adblock on every computer elders in my family use as a preventive measure bc too many websites put ads in between news articles!!!
i believe in aliens but not ghosts! i don’t believe in an afterlife or really anything spiritual so no ghosts. i don’t believe that aliens are here on earth or anything but i do believe they’re out there in the universe. reblog for sample size and share your thoughts in the tags!
He’s riding the bow wave! The boat, moving forward, also pushes quite a bit of water forward. The dolphin is letting the boat push him with the water, to save on the effort of swimming. It’s like birds that fly in a V formation to take advantage of the wings of the bird ahead of them.
