Tell Me

Ok I'm a little loaded tonight and I wanna ask you guys' opinion. I quit my first job back in august. I quit cuz I didn't want to work during school, but the main reason was I don't think ppl liked me. I remember one time a couple of guys were mocking me, which I cant stand cuz in high school a bunch of people fucked with me. One time at work there was a really awkward moment between me and this guy. The problem with him, I never knew if he was joking or meant something he said. I remember this one time, he was putting up a shelf and I was watchin and he said he could do it, he was having difficulties with it, and he got mad and said if I'm not going to help him I should just go away. So it got kinda awkward and I was so embarrassed, anyway I told him I'd move the pieces from the shelf that were left over (which was a long long walk to the other end of the parking lot) and he said ok so I just did. Anyway by the time I got back Another guy was helping him. He never asked me to help him though. I was there with him so you'd think he would have asked.

Anyway, this guy I never felt comfortable around and it seems like everyone else got along great with him. I couldn't stand being around him and I always avoided him. I remember when me and him would work the closing shift, I would stay in my department while he fucked off and went and chatted with his friends somewhere else in the store. I thought if I let him do that he'd be cool with me but that never really happened. I always did hard work, I swept the floors, I put shit away, I rarely ever saw this guy do a damn thing. I just felt since he's been working here longer than me, he could be like that, but by the time I left the place I knew he was a lazy bastard. I'm so sorry I quit my only job I've ever had, but at the same time I'm glad to be rid of this guy.

Guys this has been bugging me since I quit last august. Any response would be greatly appreciated. I feel like such a tool.

Unfortunately, some people are assholes and that can't be changed. All you can do is try not to let it bother you and not let them push you around. Since this happened in August, it's now ancient history and you have to forget about it and move on. Those guys have long since forgotten about it, and the best thing do is to stop worrying about it and dwelling on it. And on the bright side, now that you have experience, you can find another much job much more easily, hopefully one with decent coworkers.

Ancient history is the pyramids and sphinx! My manager told me I could come back in the spring if I want to. I got nothing else so I'm really thinkin I should go back. I need the money but I don't know wat to do.
