jesus, goddess. Got me crying on a Sunday morning.

I found the listing last night for the bedside delivery technician at the main campus. My new plan is to fill out the application and email, also, and find some extra work I can do at my dad’s office, where I help out occasionally, particularly when they need tech support or an extra set of hands to help with weeding…

You want me to what now? I’ve posted here before that I was raped repeatedly as a child by one of my brothers, and your brilliant suggestion is that I let myself be raped to earn gas money? Gas money, of all things?

The Clinic is about 20 hospitals in NE Ohio. They’re always hiring. Check out their Job Board. You don’t need to go to a job fair. You DO need to leave your current job ASAP.

Hell, here’s the whole letter, because it’s ringing bells for me for you

You can do this. I believe in you.

And your awful family? The reason they treat you like shit is so you’ll work harder to get them to finally treat you well and then THEY don’t have to lift a finger or spend a penny on your parents.

I say do it! You’ve got the skills, take them where they can be appreciated and work for you!

an extremely generous benefits program that starts on day one; better pay and full time hours (I’ve been cut from 43 hours a week to 32); a job at a world-class health system that would give me every opportunity in this field that I could possibly want to advance and to learn; and the chance to finally live on my own, …

I said in my original post that I was scared and anxious about it. This is the behavior of a scared and anxious person for whom this is an all-or-nothing proposition. The only person who assumes any actual risk, the only person who loses if it does not work out, is me, and me alone. I am asking questions and…

I have commented on threads about career issues and moves in SNSs past, so I think I need to seek the wisdom of the Jezebel community on this one.

How detailed do I make it?

Except that it wasn’t a protest against Pelosi, nor was it a pissing match, least of all between Pelosi and Ocasio-Cortez.

And why are you asking here?

So, you’re against things that would help regular people? Like universal health insurance? Oooooh kinda scary...

How was Beto a victim of his own fame, exactly? He was never expected to beat Cruz, but ended up coming painfully close and gaining international attention.

Well that jacket was apparently quite cheap, and probably made by kids the same ages as the ones Malaria visited.

AOC is to the right of me on some issues, but I love how she just makes conservatives and centrists absolutely furious. I loved her taking part in the protest outside Pelosi’s office. She’s using the spotlight being on her and being newly elected to put pressure on the party establishment. Wonderful to see and I hope…

I hate that the constant bashing and clamoring of old conservatives actually work and take root in the collective mind. Hillary and now Nancy Pelosi have been made much more unlikable than they really are.

It’s just another thing men need explained to them that women already know: the cost of being a woman is WAY HIGHER than men. Men can wear the same suit and just change ties (like that anchor in Australia who did it for a year and no one ever noticed!) and that’s it. Women have to have OUTFITS, hair, makeup, nails,…
