I'm a full-time college student and I work part time at a physiotherapy clinic as a receptionist. I'm lucky in the sense that there's only one other girl who works there, we work opposite shifts and basically make our own schedule. But it's still exhausting having to talk to her to figure out what days we wanna work, to go in and put on a fake persona and talk to people all day, to make small talk with my boss and pretend there's no power dynamic and she gives a shit about me as a person. I'm just tired of it. I find interacting with other people so exhausting and I suck at small talk.
