Hi 👋, former batista here , I read your post about your work situation and even tho you and me live in completely different places in the world , I have experienced exactly the same thing . My heart goes to you my friend. I know it sounds like a lot right now bc you're in uni and finding another job seems like a massive hurdle, been there myself, but you have to find another job in retail if you must that isn't so exhausting. I now work in a supermarket, and even though I have other things to look out for , at least I'm not by myself, and if I need help others will help me ,also I'm not cleaning all of this place alone.

You can try working in a clothes shop, sweet shop (idk how to say that in English sorry) ,or as a tutor for young kids or as a full time waitress, (these are all jobs I've considered in my country) . My advice is to choose a place with lots of other people working there .

I don't know your living situation so I'm sorry if this message offended you in any way , I really hope you find another place that is 10 times better than your current one .

🩷😘

oh dear, thank you for caring enough to send me this! it doesn't offend me at all! i've actually worked all those jobs before. working at a supermarket might be the worst job ever, followed by retail. i really want something related to my desired area, but it's impossible unless i do an internship first (which doesn't even cover my rent). i did end up talking to my boss because i had reached my limit and she promised she'd find someone to share the tasks, so i think things will get better soon :-)

study of the love note

there is something about the action of folding that is integral to the love note. once folded, it’s charged with a furtive and hopeful magic, like finishing a spell
