as long as none of my coworkers at my shitty customer service job ask how old i am, i can pass as an abled teenager working a starter job rather than a 25-year-old with a bachelor's degree who lost 3-4 years of their life to a grief/depression/autistic-burnout juggle-combo and potentially wrecked their career prospects forever

#i try. i tryyyy to stay optimistic about the career prospects but it's fucking hard #but i almost started crying trying to give the extremely bare bones version of why i a college educated 25yo am #working at safeway so that's where my stability is at today #i do have a baby face so people tend to be visibly/audibly surprised when i answer this question #actually autistic #aphelion.txt #20sposting #negative #worst part is that it IS my first paying job #he was like 'this is ur first job right?' and i was like 'uh huh :)'#and he was like cool! how old are you? :) and i was like 't... twenty five...'#and i could watch him go like 'o_o
