Lucky we didn't freaking die

I opened the store alone with my manager and a few hours in, my eyes were burning. I couldn't figure out why, I washed them out with water and they burned even worse. And he said "my eyes are burning too". I just suffered through it like wtf did I get in my eyes. I thought I had rubbed something into them but

Couldn't remember touching my face.

Because I didn't 😒

It was a pizza place so we had a massive oven, it has a vent that needs to be open and someone closed it. There was no smell, we didn't feel sick, all that happened was our eyes burned. Finally FIVE HOURS LATER he realized the oven vent is closed. So we were inhaling fumes all day, probably the only thing helping us was that customers were coming in and out and I was constantly opening the drive thru window.

What the fuck.

Night shift tried to murder us I guess.

I think he started to feel bad, because he was working the back half of the store while I worked the front close to the door and window. So I was getting more air than him. He was so mad, he made an angry phone call to someone. I was just happy my eyes weren't burning out of my head anymore.
