I work the way I do for me. As someone who is hyper focused on my job, I understand what you’re getting at. Before my recent promotion, I was doing way more work than my coworkers for the same pay because I was work obsessed. But it was what I wanted to do. I am excellent at a job that is genuinely important.

At this point I have wholeheartedly embraced it. I’ve been even more focused since my promotion. I will be the convenience store woman, but for my dispensary. It makes me happy.
