Worst Day Yet !Help!

Repost from my tumblr page, because I really need to talk to somebody right now.

I ing despise my job. And my co-workers. Wanna know why?

I work in a market. We are separated in about 4 departments or whatever is that called in english and today I had to go to another department for the day. But that’s irrelevant.

I was scanning items on shelves to make new price tags for them when I saw in the corner of my eye a man around 30-tish in a black t-shirt going towards me and stopping behind me. I didn’t pay him any mind, thinking he was just a client that wanted something from the shelve I was scanning or something. I started paying attention when I heard laughter from my left. My co-workers were laughing and pointing towards me. I turned my head and you know what I saw? The very same man that I thought was just a regular client was bending down and looking at my . When he noticed I have seen him he turned and grabbed something from a shelve behind him almost dropping it in a haste.

I ran. I saw an older female co-worker walking a bit away and ran to her, showing those laughing ers the international you-are-stupid gesture. I had tears in my eyes and caught up to her, explaining what happened. I stayed with her for a few minutes calming myself down, when I saw him again. He ing FOLLOWED me and pointed at me to someone? I don’t know, but didn’t come closer, because I was with that co-worker. I told her he was there and she asked me to show her, who was it and if that ever happens again to call our security. I went with her and saw him talking with one of my male co-workers and told her that was him. She told me it was one of the people that used to work there and to not pay him any mind, because he was apparently drunk and we went our ways.

You know what is best? The very same current male co-worker that I saw talking with that man and that was the first one to laugh came to me asking who was that man. I told him he should know himself who he was and he said that he heard he was someone who used to work there, but claimed he didn’t know. I asked him how the should I know then, when I only started working in May in a very loud voice, because he was seriously starting to piss me off and he ran and never came close to me till the end of my shift.

I don’t know what to think of it. I’m looking for a new job ASAP.

Oh my God, this is sincerely horrible. It's already awful when it happens on the streets, so I can't imagine how embarrassing and infuriating it can be in your workplace... I'm sorry you had to go through this, I'm sorry that so many of us all around the world have to go through this.
Just know that there are many of us who can relate with you because we face the same problem on a daily basis -don't let people like your co-workers get to you, they don't seem to have an ounce of decency or common sense.
I hope that you find another workplace soon, or that things at your current workplace get better! Stay strong!
