about to put in a two-weeks notice for a toxic, mentally and physically draining work environment in favor of two other jobs that already feel more natural and relaxing than the one i've worked in for eight years.

will it screw over the management for the current store? yes.
do i feel bad about it? a tiny bit.
but after being treated like i could be replaced (when i know that's not easily possible), for years, and a few mental breakdowns over the last few months, has opened my eyes that this is not a healthy working environment.

remember folks, you are worth more than a dollar sign. worth more than being a mindless worker. you don't have to remain in a toxic work environment, even if you feel trapped.

chopped off all my hair yesterday, fully came out to my dad, and made a public announcement about my gender identity that went better than i'd ever expect. 2021 might still be shit like 2020 was, but i'm looking forwards to what the future brings.

but i',m gonna go get my hair cut after almost 9 months, then go home and read over some threads that make my heart happy.

me @ the customer coming into the store saying i'm brave for not wearing a mask: ma'am i have anxiety that literally prevents me from wearing a mask.

me @ the customer coming in saying i'm a danger to everyone due to me not wearing a mask: if it's between getting sick and my sanity, i'd rather keep the sliver of sanity oi have left.

it gives me such a good feeling when you're on a level of friendship w/ people that you could.... pick out certain aspects of them.
the way a thread's going? same page feels good man.
listening to the same podcast and screaming about said things? gives me life.
watching friends play video games and being voice in the back that says the spooky sounds are just friends coming to visit. my sworn duty

havin one of those days where i know i'm worth it, deep in the recesses of my mind.
but the louder, more overpowering part of said mind has been shouting obscenities and nonsense my way, and makin me feel like the smallest ant in the world. the one that can't hold double it's weight and holds everyone back.

so i've been watchin some feel good youtube, listening to the magnus archives, and occasionally playing around in animal crossing to make myself feel better.
