Y’all let me take a moment and vent

Which I usually don’t do on social media, so I’ll do it here. 7 months ago I had a miscarriage, shortly after that, we found out we were expecting again, so soon, but so grand. I blamed my miscarriage on stress from my job and still do even though some say stress can not cause a miscarriage. Anyways, fast forward, a few months and the stress at my retail job is unbearable, I decide to transfer to another pharmacy. I had 8 weeks left in my current position, 5 weeks past and I got cussed out twice in one day. (People are assholes) I left in tears. The next day, I put my two week notice in. I didn’t discuss it with anyone besides myself. I texted my fiancé on the way to work just to give him a heads up. I wasn’t sure what I was going to be doing besides helping my mother expand her business. My last day at CVS was November 23 and I can not even begin to tell you the happiness I feel every day. I feel valued, appreciated, obviously by my business partner, but by ACTUAL PEOPLE! The people I now deal with are a whole new kind of people AND I LOVE IT! When you work retail, customers don’t care about you, your feelings, how hard your working, they want their crap and they want it now. So I want to let everyone know, when you get the opportunity, shop small, shop local, tell business owners how much you appreciate their work. It will mean the world to us small business owners and at the end of the day, this pregnant chick won’t be crying!
