       You know what? Why don't we normalize paying people directly for their time. Like tips, but for like, professional stuff? Like if someone works for some organization, and you see that they're underpaid, come to work depressed and shit and you know they only have a few people working with them and tons of people they need to care for, or help in some way, why not give them money? Hospital staff, hotel staff, stuff like that? Cause you *know* the system ain't paying them nearly enough to give of themselves until their ain't no more to give, and hey you have a new patient! Aren't you excited? Be excited! Put a smile on your face. Oh and we need you so no vacation right now ***please***. Oh and next week you're dealing with that patient that drains you especially dry, along with the others. Aren't you happy? You have a house, a car, a job...Like, there comes a point where "thank you" just kinda... I mean I don't know about anyone else, but it just means nothing. People have told me just how great I am, how smart I am, but what do I get? More students. Luckily, there won't be a new one popping up this coming week thank God, but goodness y'all I need a vacation and I don't have but 40 hours of personal leave, and I already took 8 hours out a month or two ago. And I almost *never* take a day off. Like, ever. None of us do. Meanwhile some people that work at the manufactoring plant thing for the blind, it's like some of them take a day off every few weeks or so. God I wish I could be like them sometimes. But I'd get even less money than I am now. I'll figure something out eventually. Anxiety is always digging into me. "Don't you have that other thing you need to do?" Yeah but all creativity is gone. "How about that other course that needs done ASAP?" I, I just, need to do that when I won't be interupted. "Update the Internet course!" Sometimes I just shut down.#work
