This is Mark. Organized, dependable, and always thinking about others before himself. As an ISFJ, he took pride in doing things right… and in not letting anyone down.

“Six shifts?? But… my math test is Thursday morning.”
Work schedule- Mark: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday- Lena: Wednesday, Thursday
Alex glanced at the newly posted schedule pinned to the corkboard. He stared at the paper, shoulders tightening. His chest felt heavy, but he said nothing.
The next day at work, Mark fumbled while scanning items. “Uh-sorry,” he said as a barcode wouldn’t register. His hands trembled slightly.

Come on Mark. Speed matters. You've got to stay efficient. Work comes first.
Alex forced a small smile. But inside, his thoughts spiraled.

After work, Lena sat Mark down for a talk. “You look stressed,” she said gently. “What’s going on?” He hesitated. “It’s nothing. Just… busy.”“Mark,” Lena said, “you've been so anxious, thats not nothing.’”Mark replied, “I have too many shifts. And my test… I don’t think I can do both.”

Then tell the manager. Im sure she would understand.
It's fine. I don't want to cause any problems.

By Thursday, Mark was exhausted. He miscounted change. He forgot a price check. His usual calm focus was gone, replaced with anxiety.

Oh no...
Can we talk for a sec?
"I don't want you to worry. you did nothing wrong, you just seem off lately. I've noticed you seem overwhelmed. It's not like you.... what's going on?"

I… I have a a lot of schoolwork. And I’ve been scheduled too much. I didn’t want to say anything, but I’m really struggling.
الانزلاق: 14
I didn't want to let you down.
And in trying to do that, you ended up overwhelmed... It's okay to ask for help Mark. Here's what were going to do. I'll rearrange your shifts, School comes first. Also, when things feel like too much, take short breaks. Reset. You don’t have to carry everything at once.

Of course, and Im sorry if I have been to hard on you lately.

The next work day, Mark was more relaxed, more himself. His job satisfaction returned back to normal.

The manager talked to me yesterday. She offered me support and guidance about speaking up when I have issues such as scheduling conflicts. The manager talked to me yesterday. She offered me support and guidance about speaking up when I have issues such as scheduling conflicts. Amy adjusted my workload, i feel more supported now.
As he clocked out, Mark glanced at the schedule again, lighter this time. For once, he didn’t feel trapped by responsibility. He felt balanced and understood.
