The thing is, it’s exhausting because I have to deal with customers all day, and on top of that I have to carry very heavy carts of medication from one pharmacy to another. It’s not an easy job. They demand a lot from me and scold me almost every day. I only get 45 minutes of break time, and sometimes I don’t even get to eat until 3 PM or 1 PM because lunch breaks rotate between employees.
Honestly, I don’t want to quit yet because I need to become financially stable and gain experience. What frustrates me the most is that I could just go to sleep when I get home, but the idea of only coming home to sleep, without being able to distract my mind except during public transportation rides, overwhelms me.
My house isn’t close to my job. I leave at 6 AM to arrive around 7:45, and I get back home at 8:00 PM. I’m really having a hard time. It’s only Tuesday and I already feel exhausted.
I had previously worked carrying heavy loads and even selling things on the street. I know how to work hard, but I had never felt this overwhelmed before. Maybe it’s the mental strain of learning such a difficult field, I don’t know.
