Damn this is by far THE best post! So many different people!  i was a manager at Walgreens once for a few years and had mental issues that disabled my life(when i was 27) and so i took like 2 years off and went to work again and same thing happened so now I'm listening to my mental health team now and under their guidance taking time off and working on myself. Things are super good now though and i'm super eager to start building a different life.

I paid for 1 on 1 tutoring on my free time, took advantage of each and every resource my school offered. It was not easy, I almost dropped out twice because of the work load and stress  :crying2:

Was a beauty therapist for several years, hated it. Was very very good at my job, but I hated the clients. Oh my god I hated the clients. I cannot state it enough, that job turned me against people in a big way.

Spent years as a stay at home mum. Hated it. Glad I did it, but I've never been so bored in my life.

Moved into marketing. I also hate that, but slightly less because I mostly just sit in front of the computer now making promotional material and telling clients their vision is great. When its not. Its really not.

What an exciting adventure my life has been :P

Just curious why did you hate your clients when you were a beauty therapist? cat makeup GIF

Any customer service job is just an awful time in general. In the beauty industry though, its karens as far as the eye can see. There is no escape. They are an infestation.

I did have clients I liked. But the majority were definitely people I'd have rather not have embedded in my memories. From people with bad hygiene [ and there were a lot considering the clients were mostly female housewives ] right through to just general ********* who thought their **** didnt stink.

If I had a sunnier disposition, the job would have been fine, because like I said, I was very good at it, people would ask for me specifically.

But I am not of a sunny disposition and I needed to leave before I ended up telling someone to get ****ed and getting fired.

Maybe you’d love writing a newspaper column (journalism), you’re very funny and astute.
