Today at work, someone was training to fall of the roof, a stunt at the end of all of our cowboy shows. When he fell I saw this dark spot on his neck, with itty bity legs too! I thought i‘d be the hero and snatch it off his neck, so i yelled, “yo hold up you got a tick on your neck“ and i pushed his head out of the way, yanking at the “tick”. It was IN THERE, so i just kept pulling on it, but everyone else around was like, “wait that’s a mole…” and the guy said “im just jewish it’s okay”

I was working at a greenhouse that stored tropical plants over the winter for wealthy clients and someone's "man" -- I don't know what his actual job or relation to this client was and only ever heard him described as this -- was due to bring a delivery truck with 6 or so 10 foot tall lemon trees in pots. This was the day that only me and another small non-man employee were in the building, but we were told he had a handcart and we weren't expected to move anything. But then he did, I fear, drive the truck into the building for a little kiss because he didn't know that the height of the truck was several feet taller than our garage door. And then as me and my coworker were jogging up to the door yelling for him to stop, he did of course repeat this for some reason. And then he was so rattled he basically begged us for help moving the delivery down from the truck onto the floor of the greenhouse. For reference if you've never seen a lemon tree they get BIG ASS villainously sharp spines on the branches that are spaced out just enough they're difficult to spot, so moving them is harrowing. Especially when they're so tall that the person navigating the handcart has the branches directly in their face once the cart is at an angle sufficient to push it and you have to 100% rely on a buddy to direct you forward. And even moreso! When you're looking at your coworker like is this guy tweaking!! Is he going to drop this big honking spiked tree on us or himself!! Anyways we all lived and we didn't drop the trees and later he explained he was just a little eepy so it's fine!

after five years of grad school and subsequent job search, i can finally say i have successfully changed careers 😭 i start my new job counseling kids at a community mental health clinic on Monday. yesterday was my last shift at the grocery store that was an escape from my horrible corporate job and a sustaining force throughout grad school. it’s so bittersweet to leave the sweetest coworkers i’ve ever had and the most fun i’ve had at work. it’s immeasurably healing to quit a job for only good reasons. my coworkers got me a cake, everyone wrote notes in a card, and the goodbyes throughout the day made my heart swell. i even got to tell the good news to my favorite instacarter 🥺 after i clocked out for the last time, my friends joined me for gelato at the cafe and we strolled the store for a final time, this time as simply a loyal customer.
