What's Bothering You?

This one cover manager at my job is driving me insane. I don’t like him and I can tell he doesn’t like me either. Thank god he’s getting borrowed by other stores from now on so he can train to be a real manager. That means he’ll only be here like once or twice a week. I don’t know why he just doesn’t like me for no reason at all. I wish I knew why, although I’m pretty sure it’s a stupid reason. I just do my job and ignore him.
I post about him a bit lately, but I think I finally understand why he hasn’t been nice to me. He was talking to someone today and was telling them about an incident between a customer and a gay worker. The customer was using slurs and being hateful towards the worker. The customer ended up being kicked out of the restaurant. But the manager went on to say he “doesn’t give a damn what you are but don’t shove it down his throat.”

Honestly, I’m still using the she/her pronouns in real life and at work but I do present very masculine. I really don’t resonate with those pronouns but that’s just easier right now at my job that I’ve been at for over a year and with my grandma around that’s very set in her ways… but without going off topic, I think the manager feels some type of way about the way I’m presenting myself despite me being afab. He’s very political and I think he’s aware that I feel off being referred to as a woman/female and with feminine pronouns. If that’s the reason, I find that very screwed up.

We used to have a worker that was very openly transgender. They are mtf. She had a deep voice but her name tag had her birth name on it which confused a lot of people. She doesn’t work there anymore but we were cool when she did. The manager didn’t seem to like her very much either.

Whatever the reason is, I’m very well aware it shouldn’t bother me. I just felt like we could’ve been friends, but I’m not sure I want to be if this is the case. Although, I’m good friends with both of his friends, but they are both cisgender woman. Strange, isn’t it?
 
Took a nap a few hours ago and I still feel like :poop:. Didn’t even eat dinner, just had peanut butter on bread.
 
I may not be able to finish my animation this week. I got invited to somewhere today, and I prostrated yesterday. I'm pretty sure I wont be home to finish it this weekend. sigh. . .
 
Good lord my I got terrible service at Starbucks today.

A barista was picking something up and I asked her about the required passcode to get into the customer restroom (pretty much every Starbucks in my area had one). She not only ignored me, but told her coworker "that person just hit on me. Like, no.” I proceeded to order and she purposefully skipped the drink for my mom and got my drink completely wrong. When it was done she said “it’s done” in the most seething voice I’ve heard in weeks. Her other coworker was nice enough to share the code and made the drink that was missed.

I almost never leave negative reviews, but this was just ridiculous. I literally just asked how to get into the restroom.
 
I am not a morning person, that's for sure. I have such a hard time waking up in the morning. I set my alarms for 6 AM and 6:30 AM, but I always sleep right through 'em and wake up an hour later.

Almost forgot that my family meeting with my therapist is this afternoon when I come back home from school. I'm dreading it.
 
I got a sudden sharp pain in my chest. I was cleared for good heart & blood health less than a week ago so I know it's just a symptom of my anxiety, but it freaked the hell out of me, and now it's hard to relax.

Going to be one of those nights :(
 
hate the human need for specifically human companionship, like "oh, you want friends, you want people to interact with" and then every time those friends suck or, as has been the case several times, just turn on me because cliques or w/e or harmless differences in opinion. would like this part of my brain removed asap please ty
 
i got a 68/80 on my mock interview assignment :( it was like 30% of my grade too... my midterms are gonna look horrid.
 
Hooooly moly I am so unbelievable tired returning back to work. Don’t know if it’s the after effects of COVID, not being at work for like 2 weeks, or both lol. Just 2 more hours and I’ll be in bed as soon as I get home 😩
 
double post but I have to share my sadness
I'm so sad that Fate: The Winx Saga has been canceled on Netflix 😔 it was genuinely a good series based off one of my all time favourite shows.
 
i wish human interaction and leaving my home didn’t make me so ridiculously anxious. how am i supposed to live like this lol. i don’t feel normal. i feel like an outsider that isn’t supposed to exist, and it feels like everyone i meet can sense that, too. it’s why i don’t have many friends. why i’m so easily forgotten, overlooked and ignored. i exist just to take up space, and it’s exhausting. this isn’t a life. i try to be kind. i try to be good. i try to keep to myself. it is never enough.

i am so tired lol

I woke up like 6-7 times between 7am and now, and by the time I actually woke up not feeling tired and drained it's 12:30 😭😭 I wish I could actually sleep like a normal person lol
 
So apparently I’m sick with who knows what. I hope the sickness doesn’t last long because I have a lot of stuff to do in the coming week.
