Meltdown at Work

Uh… Well, here I am, again, hiding in the restroom. I hate the holiday season in retail so much it makes me cry, but the more I try to avoid going out there, the more customers come through the door. My feet hurt so much from run back and forth between each whining old women, I think my toes are turning to stone! I feel like I haven’t taken a lunch break in days, maybe weeks. Where did the managers go? Did everyone call in sick? I keep catching glimpses of myself in the windows of the store and I don’t remember my dress looking this wrinkled or my face this pale. I’m not sure how much more I can take. If I could just lie down for a few minutes, I’d feel better and maybe my legs won’t feel so stiff. I hope I can clock out soon.
