| I work in Health Information Management/Medical Records which is a support role to healthcare. I tried doing clinical lab tech in college but the pressure of getting the measurements correct wasn't worth it for me. So I went to HIM which is more office-based environment and with the increase in tech... |

| Thanks to everyone for responding. First I won't be going back to the gift shop for a while if not ever. Some of the stress is probably coming from the fact that I've been working a different job in an office setting, so I was only at the gift shop once a week so I was forgetting little things. I do... |

| I volunteer at a gift shop at a local hospital. Two incidents occur. The first one was the week before Christmas. This guy comes in and acts as if he was interested in buying a smartwatch. I showed him a few ones that we had and he tricked me into turning my back on him. I turned around and the guy ... |

| Ana, that sounded boring I would had walked out too. Red Cross came to my school and since I couldn't give blood they had me talk to the people donating blood and give them snacks. They should had other jobs for you to do instead of just calling people. And texting and/or just writing s**t down in g... |

| I have major issues with phone calls, I've always done whatever I can to avoid and get around having to call people. It really is debilitating if you can't make certain calls as an adult since no one will talk to your parents anymore for legal reasons, it has taken me years to get to the point to a... |

| Today I decided to call to schedule a doctor's appointment and ask about a prescription refill for one of my meds. My dad has always made the appointments for me and I thought it would be a good idea to try to do it myself since I am an adult after all. I usually get nervous when talking to someone ... |

Whenever an episode hits I usually try to distract myself from watching TV to listening to music and even spending time w/ my dog. Other times I would talk to my mom write it out on my phone's notepad an... |

| I've been doing volunteer work at a hospital gift shop for a few months now. I've been learning a lot of new things from retail to operating the cash register.
