May be you should go and look for a sales job, you will get more abuse but the most important thing should be the money. Create an exit plan and be focused, you exit plan might be earning a particular range that will lead to you switching job

As far as your job pays your bills...

See it as a means to an end. There is dignity in labor.

Just keep working on improving your situation or getting a better job.

Meanwhile, be dignified in what you do. Accept and love what you do. Don't feel bad about a job you do temporarily that pays your bills. They are worse and despicable things people do to survive. Your job happens to be legit.

I feel everything is your state of mind. Be proud of what you do. Do it with your head raised up high.

That job doesn't define your person!

You should not be ashamed of the legitimate job that takes care of your basic needs. If you check well, there are many unemployed persons roaming around that wish to be in your position.
The only downside is that it consumes your whole time and does not give you some free time to scout for other job opportunities available within your locality.

Suggestions:
1. Look beyond the challenges and identify managerial skills you can learn from the current job. This will increase your chances promotion or securing better jobs.

2. Whenever you are not attending to customers, go online to learn a few digital or real life skill that relate to your goals in life. You will be surprised how much you can learn online. If real-life skills (fashion designing, welding, agriculture, electrical works, mechanical works etc.) are your preferred, check for those that are easy for you to gain free or low-cost practical experience maybe from a friend, family member, neighbor, acquaintance etc.

3. Look beyond the business challenges and maintain a positive energy and friendly countenance when attending to customers. A positive energy has a way of attracting good fortunes. Even when some customers are rude, try to maintain your composure and do not try to retaliate.
Some people have been able to get better job offers from their customers just by maintaining good customer relations.

NB: Do not always beg customers for tips because it passes you as cheap and irritating.

There is DIGNITY IN LABOUR.
Your story is not complete because you roll out the challenges of your duties but you refused to roll-out when fuel attendant are KINGS & Queens where there is fuel scarcity. All the challenges faced at your place of work is just temporary. Almighty God shall soon pick your call and your will look back and say THANK YOU LORD ALMIGHTY for making you pass through the stages of life.

How are the people to whom you cannot tell what you do for a living be your friend? Pride or low self exteme is one major problem you may have.

The day you overcome it, that's the day you will understand that no legitimate job is to be looked down upon. There is dignity in labour. It is that day you will begin to open up to your friends more. Opening up sometimes makes way for information and commitments to help by people.

Why are you ashamed of your job? The thought of cleaning up after others greatly troubling you is an indication of inflated self worth. If you were as good as you think you deserve you won't be working there.

But what do I know, if you think you can do more why don't you prove it and make a plan to get out of there.

You must strive and prove to yourself that you can do better, by being conscientious with your work.
