I can't anymore
So I have been working at this warehouse for a while now. I am working here just to make some cash during summer since I still attend college. My coworkers are mean, they will ask me certain questions like " why dont i have a bf?" And when I said I don't want one right now, they will keep asking why and stuff like that. They also give me certain jokes that make me feel bad about myself... like today one told me she wonders how I am attending college( like I am so stupid like how did I make it). The reason she told me that is because when packing or alarming certain goods I like to ask alot of questions...so she feels I am stupid. I just can't stay at this job anymore...its starting to affect my mental health now, it's making it worse. I am someone who is very sensitive and take stuff personal. If I could get another job I will gladly leave.

I would agree that sometimes it is easy if possible to walk away....... but if only for summer that is almost over and frankly you will deal with people like this in one form or another many times in your life. Now might be a lesson in toughening up to those who if making statements like that are showing you how stupid they are and know many of them that is the job they are stuck at while it is a summer cash move for you..... do not let petty statements get you down and if you are up to it stand up for yourself and tell them you would be happy to discuss their harassment with a manager.
I’m pretty sure every place is like this. I’ve been at the same job for almost 20 years and almost every day someone has something to complain about. If they’re not complaining then they’re making petty comments about anything that they can just to put me down. Some days are better than others but for the most part this is the culture. Stay focused on your personal goals and when the time is right, make your move to something better.
