I have to be real for a moment: lately every day I walk into work I feel like I’m rolling the dice. People are being reckless and growing more impatient by the day. What was mild concern is turning into full blown fear. My employer is doing everything they can BUT some things....

....are out of their control. When the TV says “it takes all of us” it really does and I’m not sure we all have it in us. I can’t imagine the bravery it takes for health care workers right now, because as someone who works retail I’m terrified.

Right now I have job security which is more than a lot of people have and I am thankful for that but it does come with some risk. I’d be considering a career change right now but I don’t think I can risk that right now, especially with the current job market.

So instead I carry on, fingers crossed. But I have to admit, I’m scared shitless. For myself, for those I love and for others. End thread.
