As someone that struggles with ADHD, social anxiety and depression navigating the workplace and figuring out where I fit in has been extremely difficult. I absolutely can’t stand retail. There’s no structure, my hours were all over the place and it felt like I was expected to do a bunch of different things at the same time, and I have a really hard time multitasking it’s so overwhelming. Running into coworkers or managers who refuse to talk to you and treat you differently than other people is so hard because I will never understand why people will get upset with someone for learning something a different way or having to train someone for a longer time than they expected too. I just wish everyone was more understanding and patient I always end up feeling so left out and out of place. I have been unemployed for a year now because I refuse to go back to a retail job and as soon as I left, I started taking a beginner floral design course. I then realized when I graduate, I will have to walk into another retail job, but I’ve wanted to be a florist since I’ve graduated high school so I’m not just going to give up now. It’s frustrating to go back and forth with this but I would really like a backup plan if I don’t end up enjoying my new job at a flower shop. Any ideas?
