before i started working i was very isolated, for weeks the only person i would speak to was my father and my Roleplay friend (but sometimes she would go ghost and i wouldnt talk to even her for weeks)
now i talk to people on a daily (well when i work) however, this isnt really socializing. when i serve customers i have a script;
" hello, gas? cash credit or debit? anything else? would you like a bag? [price] would you like your recipt? have a good day, good bye!" if a customer tries to engage in deeper conversations i usually ignore it, i dont have the energy to chit chat with strangers everyday. i do chit chat with my coworkers but only because the engage first, i would be silent all shift if i had it my way. i bring headphones and draw most of the time when theres no one buying anything (its a very very slow job, we get maybe less than 100 customers a day)) everyday i feel more and more socially exhausted. even my coworkers are starting to not like working with me, when i asked why they say its because i ignore them.
