If you are riddled with anxiety and think of yourself as a shy person (like many people in the world), then sometimes it's hard to do things that you know will benefit you. Sometimes you just want to drop everything and walk away like it never even happened. For example, putting in your two weeks.

In this case on Reddit, this salesgirl was only 21 years old and very very shy. Apparently, the optical store she works out asks for a two-month notice, which is insane. Luckily, that is just the courtesy they ask, and it isn't in the contract. Because this poor, shy girl was pushed to the brink of walking out. She doesn't want to burn any bridges and hates confrontation, but she has just had it. Her entitled boss, a woman who is almost a decade older than her, is always trying to turn everyone against each other and taking lunch breaks that are multiple hours long. When she comes back, she always has something to yell about to OP. So, one day, OP had had enough, grabbed her bags, and walked out. Now, she's asking what should be her next step. Should she meet with the manager and the owner and get her side of the story out, or should she just walk away? See what people are suggesting below!
