When that GM stopped by 6 weeks ago, he wanted to borrow cleaning supplies because of upcoming inspection at his store. Right as he was heading out the door, my coworker M started talking to him about his own blood sugar cuz M recently developed diabetes,

I expected that GM (I’ll call him J) to rebuff him cuz J was busy AF. Instead J engaged in that conversation for at least a couple minutes. Right after that, I attempted to talk to J as well jokingly asking him to stay awhile. He never acknowledged what I said to him. Instead, he immediately just said, “bye (insert my name).”

I cried in the restroom for half sn hour while still on the clock. That was the day J first walked out on me.

Even worse, a few days later, M told me he and J were messaging each other food they ate each night and low carb recipes. My heart visibly shattered into a million pieces. M then quickly added that other than that they don’t really talk to each other. Supposed to take the edge off my wound. Nope too late. I spent almost an hour crying in the lobby while clocked on (it wasn’t even remotely busy that early in the morning).

Recently I signed up on the sign up sheet for crew trainer. That position was resurrected recently after years of being done away with. The name I signed was, “broken girl.”
