(posted a wee bit early since I am tired from working outside all day…)
So my ‘off week’ is almost over and it is time to go back to work. Remember ‘going to work’… that was when you left the house and did a job somewhere other than at home…
Locally we are at about 20 cases in my county, and I am expecting this week to be the point at which the proverbial shit hits the fan. A couple of counties over from here they have had 5 COVID related deaths in a service area the includes the hardest hit county per capita in the state.
Having this forum to post to has been a great way to keep my mind off the upcoming shitshow that I am foreseeing.
So, all that got me to thinking.
/giphy uh-oh!

I realized early on that there was absolutely no reason to keep going to a job you hate, to work 40 hours a week doing something you don’t enjoy.
Over the years I have been employed in:
Food service (16-33) multiple roles from hourly employee, to store manager to franchisee…
Construction (33-38)
Firefighter (33-40)
EMS (33-42)
Nursing (40-now)
How many different ‘careers’ have you had?
Are you working in your field (insert farmer joke here…)?
Are you working currently or has your job been put on hold by SARS-CoV-2?
