I work in a state where abortion was previously banned and is now still pretty heavily restricted. Lately I've heard a lot of really negative and hurtful comments about patients who are picking up contraceptives, and about people who are pro-choice. I don't usually bring my political views to work, and now I feel like I honestly can't say anything without making work really uncomfortable for myself (I'm pro-choice). What should I do?

I would look for a job that is outside retail dispensing if you have to stay in the area. If your colleagues feel comfortable expressing those views now, that is unlikely to change anytime soon.

Very true, I had to make a similar decision for myself...was just getting tired of the environment and listening to these things

Have you ever thought that you might be the one in the wrong? Why can't your coworkers express how they feel if you feel so comfortable too? Isn't it their choice to feel that way? Seems a bit phony.

I got passed on an industry position that I was really excited about. Had multiple interviews with the company and was 1 of 2 people left and they went with the other person. Had a great WLB and over a 40% pay increase. Feeling very discouraged and kinda like I just got dumped. Find it difficult to believe that there will be many other opportunities like this. Any advice to stay encouraged?
