Night shift at the Gas N' Go is weirdly therapeutic. Just me, the buzzing lights, and 3am customers buying beef jerky and existential crisis fuel. 😂 It's giving me too much time to think though... about how people can wear such convincing masks. How someone can smile at you while sharpening a knife behind their back.

But then I remember: for every person capable of that level of betrayal, there's someone else who'll run through hellfire for you. And that? That's the only truth that matters. Loyalty isn't a word. It's an action. It's showing up. It's seeing the monster and stepping in front of it anyway.

Also, the slushie machine is fixed and it's a goddamn miracle. Cherry flavor supremacy. 🍒
