That’s my best advice. Sounds like you’re intelligent and will be able to get another job when you choose to... especially as you gain some work experience....so just learn how to deal with these toxic people. They’re not nearly as powerful as they seem...

Hey,
Thanks for replying so fast to me. Yeah — I’m trying to make it a positive experience. I have two managers I “like” and I feel I can sort of rely on and trust? This isn’t a job I have to keep, thankfully. It makes me scared that we live in such a nasty, dirty world. I mean like, I’m a teen and the fact that I feel I’m mature enough to respect people, yet I’m working with old, adults who are gossiping about people (from what I hear, I stay out of it) and complain — and then not appreciate the other employees work is hard.
I hope I can bring some positivity into the environment? I know it’s not my job, but I want to work in an environment that’s positive — and it’s just disgusting to be acting like that in such a low level job. I say that angrishly because I’m tired of how everyone treats each other, including me. And I know I sound harsh — but I’m tired of the times I’ve been mocked on, joked of, it’s crazy.
Thanks for your input, really — I appreciated it.
