Hey, i am pretty upset atm everything seems to be going wrong for me i feel like everything is so negative and i cant find anything positive in life whatsoever. Im usually a happy person and full of life but lately people have been putting me to tears with comments. I hate confrontation and when i get freaked out at or in trouble i start to tear up and cry. For example yesterday .. roommate cant drive me to work cuz hes out of gas ...no big deal so called a cab im broke as usual so only had enough to get there like exact. Long story cab fair was like ten cents over from what i had ..cab driver got mad at me that he had to change the price. I was in cab for ten min with him like i was sorry u know? So anyways he makes me late 6 min go into work ( i work at a petstore) one of the first customers freaks out at me she was an older lady maybe 50 or so brought back a dead goldfish then i tell her u know they should have a bigger tank and maybe to bring me a water sample so i can test it right make sence? Before i get her a new fish ..then shes like im 20 years older then u i know all about fish u know nothing i just want a fish blah blah
Blah for like 5 min right to my face ...i didnt even know what to do my face got all red and i just said i was sorry and was only trying to hhelp even tho i felt like freaking out and telling her she looked way older then 40 lol. And she was the dumb one but i let it go kept it in the she goes to the cash freaks out at the cashiers telling them she didnt want a 30 min lecture on goldfish which obv was not true it was like 2 min before she fliped her cool. Anyways the manager comes and gets her the fish and she gives me a dirty look so im like whatever i start to cry like at the cash in front of everyone when she leaves and go in the office alone to cool off . Then i tell the other girls what happened to try and vent a little made me feel a but better then the manager sees im crying and offers to do anything to help but i say im fine and just try to calm down ... he says that i was right in educating her cuz she only had a 4 gallon tank for 2 goldfish when they really need like 29 for 2 ...made me feel so mad that just because im young i dont know anything about. Fish when i have read so many books ..helped sooo many ppl set up their tanks over the year and a half i worked there have my own like 8 tanks . I just cant believe how rude some ppl are. Then then i come home everythings fine im calm happy my fiance goes to sleep im playing a game on his phone . And i know its bad but i start to snoop i read his texts and its from some girl that long story short he is never to talk to her again and he knows it and she had sent him a pic of her midriff showing a new tattoo and u can see her bra and stuff i start to get red faced and pissed now . Throw the phone at him and say not to touch me the rest of the night hes half asleep and doesnt really understand so i forget it and still shaking mad fall asleep .... next morning i text him about it and he says hes sorry etc. I forgive him. Go take a cab once more to work thankfully i got paid. I get written up cuz i joked around and said something offensive that another employee didnt like and im forced to apologize on monday ...lets just say total shocker had no idea i said anything wrong like im sorry i didnt mean to offend anyone with my stupid joke i cant even remember what it was how am i supossed to be sorry for that asked my other coworker friend and she agreed that i was obv not trying to be offensive and that they take things wayyy to seriously about it so whatever i guess ill have to do that monday.i again started tearing up in the backroom after i talked to the manager. i feel like i cry everyday about something or i take things to heart way to much i dont know . I hate this job they promised to move me up so i can make more money like 6 months ago and they have given me a 35 cent raise after a year which i find infair i know so much more about animals there then anyone combined and make the same as a cashier who just stands there u know? How fair is that .i need a new job asap i think. But honeslty i feel so sad and mad and stressed about everything happening at once i feel like exploding . I have no friends to talk to beecuase i moved acoss the country after i graduated 2 years ago with my fiance . I have no money for school and no motivation . I feel like my life is a waste and im never going to get ahead . They made me employee of the month for september but they will not promote me i dont understand im valuable to them but they treat me like crap. Everything just sucks i feel depressed and i now have a lovely coldsore for company becuase of this stress. Ughhh

When you say "lately," how long do you mean? When did you first start crying at others' comments? (No need to answer; share only as much as you wish.)

Yes, you are valuable to them (you sound like a genuinely knowledgeable employee), and they are trying to buy your loyalty with "awards" rather than a decent wage. You seem capable of much better things.

Please keep posting.
