When the automatisms you acquired during your job are invading your private life.

When i was an intern in a big store, i had to fight against the reflex of storing the shelves during my own shopping sessions.

i worked at starbucks during its heyday in the 90's and it turned me into an espresso snob thanks to the training they used to put their barista through.

they stopped doing that sometime in the 2000's and now i'm so bougie that starbucks is beneath my standards. lol

i'm the same way with food; i used to make my own tortillas and now everything store bought is beneath my standards too. lol

I used my hands to flatten them (flour tortillas); I don't make them anymore due to health reasons.
