Walked out of my shitty retail job

I was a head cashier. After a month of pulling twice my weight because of a fresher hire who wouldn't pull their weight (ie not doing our shared assigned tasks, taking two hour lunches) because they were a manager's favorite (they got multiple credit cards a week, which is important to the corporate gods).

Our store manager told me that she was okay with what god-cashier said. So fuck them, and fuck their credit cards. Credit cards won't keep their store running. I'll make sure to spread the word around town.
