  • outbreaks every so often aren’t unusual so i don’t want to be alarmist but this is going to happen at a higher frequency because of Trump’s appointees. they’re all corrupt and were only chosen because they’ve sworn fealty to him. for example, the dr. who heads the FDA, Martin Makary, used to work for John Hopkins and advocated for vaccines and masking and sounded like your normal average physician during the pandemic. now, a few months in to his role as head of the FDA, he’s announced that covid vaccines are going to be limited to only people 65+ older or compromised individuals. you’d think maybe there’s some supply chain issue or logistic difficulty or idk anything reasonable that would support the recommendation, but no, Dr. Makary thinks they “aren’t necessary.” in 2024 he was vocally opposed to vaccine mandates as well and hasn’t changed that opinion.

    okay so, as someone who has struggled with this my entire life but has recently married these concepts together let me try to give some insight. i truly thought i would never be able to find a personally rewarding job that i am good at and can tolerate well. i resigned myself to a lifetime of taking what i could get while constantly searching for that elusive role at a company that didn’t seem to exist.

    the way i found my current job was simply by never giving up. i wish there were more to it. it was merely a matter of time moving forward plus the amount of searching and applying i did on a semi-regular basis. basically, never stop trying to find a job that benefits you as a whole. it’s likely out there and close by but incredibly difficult to obtain because everyone wants it. everyone wants the kind of job you’re searching for. your competition is large but it could always be your turn next.

    i work for a business that gives back to my community. it is an amazing feeling knowing that i contribute to something people depend on and does good for the people in this city. i wish everyone had a job with purpose and meaning instead of meaningless tasks that only serve to make some asshole richer.

    keep searching! always believe you deserve better because you do.
