I work in the receiving department of a retail store. I think it's pretty good. I don't deal directly with the customers. I spend most of my time in the warehouse opening boxes and putting security tags on clothes. I work with 6 other people. And I usually get off work before 2, so I don't even see many customers. I struggled with my anxiety when I worked as a bagger at a grocery store. But, this job is so much better. I still can get anxious before going into work, but once I'm there I'm fine. I try giving myself incentives to help me get through the day. Yesterday, I brought a jar of hearts of palms to eat on my break. I also set silent alarms on my Fitbit, for when it's time to go on break, or if I have 15 minutes left on my shift. That way, I'm not focused on the time, but I'm still keeping track. It's just the little things I do to keep my work days going smoothly.
Thanks for this!
