i’m not really all THAT anxious about going to work anymore by this point, but pretty much all of my anxiety is related to having to interact with my one coworker

i dont want her to keep insisting i’m doing things wrong, i dont want her to keep telling me what to do when it looks like it hurts the animals, but i DEFINITELY dont want to tell her to fuck off bcus she’s rly intense and i am petrified of confrontation

i can’t very well say “i mean, i’m told that you’re not supposed to be aggressive with the animals when you’re a groomer bcus that’s gonna give the animals bad experiences…” bcus then that’d be me saying that she’s bad at her job, and i dont even wanna know how she’ll react if I, some chick who’s been working here for two weeks, insinuate she’s bad at her job when she’s been doing it for years

any day that i KNOW she’s not working, i’m not rly worried about. yeah i’m small and weak and probably gonna have difficulty with some of the dogs but my other coworker at least isn’t going to give me shit about it.
