#your poor customers and clients and coworkers arent the ones to be mad at my dears

I mean this as gently as humanly possible, but some of you really need to start interacting with people you don’t like in person. I cannot stress enough that you will be EXPECTED to be able to work alongside or with people you don’t like throughout your life and, in real life, you can’t just clap back with a spicy comment and keep your job.

I am by no means saying you have to tolerate racists, ableists, homophobes, or sexists. But you will have to learn to work with people who you disagree with, whose personalities drive you up the wall, and who you just simply don’t like.

Being unable to do so is a “you” problem that you need to work on- because it doesn’t just apply professionally. It applies when fighting for human rights too. And if you can’t have empathy for the 80 year old who calls your call center because she can’t figure out the online portal, then you’re not really practicing the ~uwu im a small baby that needs empathy~ vibes that you preach, now are you? Treat otters the way you want to be treated, etc etc.
