... are coming out of the woodworks recently. I have no idea what's going on this weekend but the retail abuse has increased outta nowhere at my job. My coworkers have been having issues and my manager was addressed by a racist man yesterday.
I think I came pretty close to getting assaulted at the cash register today and I'm still aggravated af about it. People never cease to blow my mind wide open sometimes.

I need to stop thinking about it lol
tell me something good that's happening with you guys lately?

@timeandtimor:
Yeah I checked on a friend of mine in a neighboring town and its the same there lately. Tensions are real high, but some people are acting straight evil.
Really had to tuck myself in my bed and throw down a bunch of marshmallows and cbd to shake it off after I came home :vanora_sweat:

Welcome back though! This place is my little safe haven on the internet lol always super pleasant

@timeandtimor:
Yeah usually my store is fairly tame compared to anywhere else I've worked. But this weekend was a special case lol
I've noticed that my coworkers have been tripping up (on very minor things) more than usual too so I think the stress is overloading them.

I think the items have gotten really creative lately <3 I mean, they were before too, but I've been pretty excited for them now!

@totalanimefan:
Most of the time it doesn't get to me. Today was just something else lol

In lighter news, I installed tiktok for the first time cause I was fidgety. I thought it was just an app for people to try hard at comedy, but there are so many wholesome af clips on there its actually kinda nice to end the day with! I'm surprised

@koneko:
Ohh what kind of plant? It is a worthy highlight imo!

I think I've only mouthed off in public once, but thats cause a waitor was being abusive to my date cause he was a transphobic asshat >>
otherwise yea, when it comes to employees, I usually try to be extra friendly because I know they're often given a slave treatment.

@totalanimefan:
Well it can have a blast visiting my animal crossing camp and playing puzzle games! XD
but yeah ill look into that just to be safe. I have my bank app but they also have like, incredibly tight security so might be fine anyway

@totalanimefan:
It was exactly the recipe of my favorite ramen!! Its not a common flavor around here (or in general idk?? I didn't find it anywhere in LA either) so I was pretty excited <3 They got a happy lil review from me lol


I want more already ;;

@lilykin:
I'm convinced that toddlers have more reasoning than adults do lol
I actually had a thought while at work yesterday where I noticed how adults tend to force children to ask politely for things. Like if they hold up an item for me to scan and the mother will be like "USE YOUR WORDS WHAT DO YOU SAY?"

but then I compared it to the adults and... in an 8 hour shift, not a SINGLE adult used their words but every child, except for one that was grumpy, said please and thank you :vanora_xd: I wish I didn't notice cause it was starting to annoy me so much. adults will just literally shove items in my face without as much of a "here". They don't say anything, they just look at me expectantly. Sometimes they wont even look at me and its kinda weird when I notice that this is normal

Yayy icecream! I got mochi ice cream! lol
