I quit my job randomly. I have no clue how people can work in customer for 20 years or more. I’ve been in the workforce for 7 yrs now and out of that, 6 have been in customer service and it was MISERABLE. I’m neurodivergent and having to talk to customers and being expected to play like I want to work doing that has been an extremely fucking grueling experience.

For the first year or two I couldn’t imagine being so much as 5 minutes late. I rarely used pto and I pride myself on never calling in. For the past couple of years Ive been forcing and forcing myself, until I started coming in 15, 30, an hr late. I had a breakdown at my job.

I called in twice in the past 2 weeks.

I’ve tried reaching out to programs, job searching, trying to get a LOA(which got shot down), speaking with my managers who tried to give me advice.

Then it happened. I don’t know what it was but I felt like I physically could not force myself to do it like I had been doing. I hate that fucking place and told them I couldn’t do it anymore. I cried all day because I know this has to be the worst possible time to burn completely out like this and to quitting like I did with. My mental health has been in shambles, even on SSRIs I couldn’t fucking take it anymore.

Hopefully I make it through this…I have like 4 months worth of rent give or take.

Wish me luck…
