I started a job a week ago at a warehouse only working 10 hr a week. I’m not in a position where I desperately need money. I don’t understand why the thought of going to work M, W, Th gives me so much anxiety and dread. I’m confident I have OCD (I’m seeing my doc tomorrow and I’m going to talk about it with him) but literally having to go to work has been on my mind all. week. long. literally, it hasn’t left my brain. I’m currently in college and i absolutely love it. however, I can’t figure out what is wrong with me that even just holding a job that’s very low hours makes me obsess so much and causes so much anxiety. I feel so alone. I don’t know what to do.

I’ve been working as an e bike grocery delivery person for 2 weeks now. The job is pretty chill, we ride groceries to peoples houses on e bike and that’s that. I work at 2 different locations.

I have been told by management that we are not supposed to work over 40 hours, but that there are no rules against it. Two weeks ago was a big winter storm, so I ended up rescheduling two days worth of clients. I am booked out for a month, so instead of making them wait, I just put them on my schedule for my off days. Another groomer and the store lead told me when I first started, that if I have to go over 40 hours…

Celebrity cameos, pyrotechnics, helicopters. Every Single Company paid Millions just to air a commercial, but you can’t afford to pay a living wage? I can’t even enjoy the game knowing how commercialized it is by companies who abuse their employees.
