i know at least three meth addicts right now. two told me they used because they can't/couldn't access their mental health medication. one told me that many people don't start until they are already on the street, and the misery plus being forced by cops to move over and over instead of sleeping encourages use. one told me it was the only way they could stay awake to work enough to support their family.

addicts need real help, like medical/mental health care, housing, a living wage.

but yeah, desperate people will do desperate things.

keep in mind, this wording is filtered through the hr fool's retelling.

why the heck would someone want to waste time with an interview process if they don't know the most basic expectations and compensation? no, i don't think you should have to wait for an official offer to learn things like hours and benefits.

you know a lot of Texans are Mexicans, right? edit - it drives me nuts to see entire populations painted with such a broad brush.

my teen and i really enjoyed this movie. so absurdly stupid and a lot of fun!

androids was 1968, blade runner 1982.

but yeah, this movie is foundational, and you don't get gits and fallout without it. edit - a word

i mean, probably more people experience anxiety about an interview than don't. having created a mechanism which supports this person in conceptualizing herself and her experience more positively to manage that anxiety is a good sign, to me.

and you will suffer with them, most likely.

this is not the way to class solidarity.

my daughter said to me one day - you have to have more empathy for those who are oppressed than hatred for oppressors.

right now, i see a lot of people lumping those who are most vulnerable together with incoming leadership. indifference to those who are most vulnerable doesn't help any of us.

some of the people who will suffer most are also people who are least likely to learn. and i still don't want to see them homeless or starving.

it bothers me that so many commenters are excited about the idea of people suffering.
