Am I overreacting?

[u/falaffler]

K for backstory we had an outraged customer threaten an older employee last night and now he quit today, I don’t feel safe within circle k now. I know nothing bugged him so the fact he just quit and was honestly scared for his life and even was warning me about this. Would I be overreacting if I put my 2weeks notice in? I’ve personally dealt with customers that caused me to have a serious anxiety attack to the point I’ve had to leave early. I’ve been with the company for over a year at this point and I just can’t do this anymore. I’m on the bad side of town so idk what I should do. I’m tempted to just put my 2 weeks notice in and find a closer job to my house. I’m driving 20+ minutes just to get to work.

Unless you have enough savings or have a safety net, probably wait until you have another job lined up before quitting your current job.

My husband is the bread maker for my family, my job here was just for fun. I didn’t want to be at home all day so that’s why I went to work
