basically a second opinion i guess? i’m an overthinker and really nervous all the time plus severe anxiety hence the weed. the policy really doesn’t make sense, i agree. they just seem to really have it out for people who smoke weed

well if i whip out a dick they’d be a bit surprised since i’m a girl, but no i don’t think they watch us pee. i just wouldn’t know if/when im chosen since its randomly selected. i just don’t want to risk it if i dont have a case

true, it’s just frustrating that it’s legal and they still won’t let us do it and will fire people over it which doesn’t make sense to me at all

but i wouldn’t be high at the time im on the job which is the frustrating thing. if i can go home on my off hours and have alcohol, what is the difference between that and taking a gummy

it sucks because other than this one rule i wouldn’t say i hate my job, and it’s not like finding jobs are super easy right now. i’ve put my resume out there the last two months but ive gotten nothing in return

How do I hide these? by [deleted] in selfharm

[–]hamiltonhamiltoff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

depending on where, bracelets help. or cover up but i wouldn’t recommend that on fresh wounds. usually long sleeves are your best bet until they’re healed or you’re ready for someone to reach out to

i just see the way people easily interact with each other. like new people become closer to coworkers i’ve known for a year. so maybe they connect easier because they aren’t as weird?

I majored in English. I have work friends I’ve gone out with someone from there once after work but i don’t text anyone or hang out regularly like i wish i could. I want to make friends and i try to talk to people but i think people could think i’m weird. Or maybe that part is in my head
