Goodbyes.

  • I don’t enjoy when somebody leaves my life, even if I despised the person. 
  • Joe- the manager.  I think that he is a tool, and an asshole.  I almost quit one day because I was being overworked.  The straw that made me tell the manager that I quit was her making me go home to shave.  I don’t like shaving, I have never enjoied it, and I don’t like it when I am forced to shave: on top of that, I wasn’t that rugged, and I was working in the back.  He pulled me outside and asked me what was wrong, and I told him all stories involving a breakdown I had some months ago, when this story takes place.  He told me about his ex-wife kicking him out and such, things that he was going through a hard time as well.  He showed me empathy, and I stayed.  Since I told him what my problems were, he now knew that I am gay.  This doesn’t bother me, I don’t care who knows I’m gay, but I want to tell him.  He outed me to a couple other managers and makes jokes about my homosexuality.  It’s all in good taste, and I think most of it is funny, but there’s that side of me that hated him for a while because of it, and because I have not been in a very good mood these past few months.
  • I found out today, just as he did, that he is being transfered to a different store.  I have to say, I’m kind of upset.  We would wollow together, we would make each other feel like our problems weren’t so bad.  I tal about him all the time, and he is the person who hired me and makes my schedule.
  • Now he’s leaving.
  • Do I take more things for granted than I think I do?
