I work at a gas station near a lake, and we serve customers all the time that are campers, fishermen, etc. Today, a man pulled up with his nice new fishing boat and fancy pick-up truck. He lifted the pump and I approved it from inside the store. Generally, drive-offs are very rare, and when it comes to someone with enough money to afford a boat, even more so. He drove off after he filled up his boat, and now it is going to cost me $95.56 out of my own paycheck. I work part-time, and I am a full time college student. This is absolutely devastating. This has happened to me during a time in which I have an empty refrigerator and midterm exams. It has been a terrible struggle for me to just remain sane, to stay above the pitfalls of anxiety and depression, to keep a delicate balance of paying bills and keeping up with school work. Please reddit, what encouragements do you have? I really need some kindness. I am at work right now and fighting back the tears and the hopelessness just long enough to get out of here and to the safety of my own home.
