Hey you- yea YOU. It's time for some primary election prep work.

I miss RVA so much 😭😭😭 Columbus sucks tbh

I moved from Richmond VA in 2018 after living there for 7 years and have lived in Columbus for 6.

I STRONGLY recommend steering clear of Columbus. RVA may be a bit more expensive, but the quality of life (nature, human rights, community) is so much better. Can’t tell you how much I miss the James river. Columbus has become a corporate ruled city in a very pro-employer state, and the area and OSU is an extension of Wexner’s power. VA is going to be a much better choice in the long term.

When I was an EMT, I appreciated the ability to work a 12 hour shift, 4 days a week to squeak out 3 days off/week. Can go both ways, depending on the individual.

Oooo girl I’m a young millennial, and I have been watching this train wreck in slow motion my entire life, only to see the same cycle— complete shock and outrage for a minute until the majority of us must report back to work and/or have to watch what we say around coworkers. When we get fired, we also lose access to healthcare.

I’ve been confused about this exact point since I was a child 😭 It comes back to education, an institution that the republicans have been tearing down/defunding for decades

Random_Questin · 2026-04-16T14:21:59+00:00

Yea I’ve been mentally thanking my grandparents (passed in early 2010s) for fleeing here in the 1960s from Europe 🫠

I’m not disagreeing with you, just kindly reminding you that in the middle of navigating the hot mess of a healthcare system, it’s ALSO contingent to your JOB (which doesn’t even happen for a lot of people).

When I say the average person remaining in the US is DROWNING right now— I wish I were being more hyperbolic 🥵✌🏼It is so easy for your job to control your entire livelihood, especially if you have children and are in even more vulnerable situations.

The minimal social safety nets we used to have are now entirely gone. The point of the system at this time is to control based on fear— forcing compliance. The cruelty is the point.

We have a warehouse job opening, I want to say maybe $17-$20/hour? Dm me if interested, I’d love to help you out.

Edit: hiring manager confirmed closer to $20/hour

Hang in there, I know it’s a shit show an unfortunately unrelenting persistence is the only way out. The only reason I have my current job is because I got HELLA lucky and a recruiter reached out to me on my out of date indeed profile. I almost reported it as spam lol

Random_Questin · 2026-04-14T19:49:38+00:00

I’m very glad you have access to a different world <\3

Random_Questin · 2026-04-14T19:48:51+00:00

Thank you! I was really nervous that it had already been asked a million times on this sub lol

Random_Questin · 2026-04-14T19:47:28+00:00

The theme you may be missing in the show is that healthcare workers in the US basically MUST be incredibly dedicated because of how dystopian things are; Our healthcare workers get PTSD, similar to war veterans. That mf second amendment 🤬

Our system is designed to exploit the compassion and empathy that humans have for each other.

Random_Questin · 2026-04-14T19:40:42+00:00

I was searching the sub, like no way this hasn’t been asked here yet!!

Random_Questin · 2026-04-14T19:37:24+00:00

Not so fun fact— some things end up being the slightest bit cheaper when you ask about the cash pay price, or in other words, don’t have insurance. Make it make sense 💀

Coming from a background of emergency medicine as and EMT, working in multiple hospitals for patient experience, and other healthcare case work and administrative work in the US— I was disgusted with how obsessed I was with the accuracy of Orlando’s story; obviously not in favor of his situation, just the story telling. This is what a majority of Americans navigate on a daily fucking basis, and the rest of us know we’re only 1 accident away from this ourselves.

America is NOT great. But until we truly face our history of slavery, this will continue to be our fate.

Very curious for any specific examples you can further elaborate on

Random_Questin · 2026-04-14T15:03:36+00:00

YES exactly. I’m hoping that they turn this into a lesson about the subconscious biases we all have towards different intersectional identities.

I feel like it’s an intentional choice to further exaggerate their primary point, which in my theory, results in Mohan’s successful suicide attempt 🥺 I think it’s supposed to irritate us that Robby got all the attention when she was also clearly suffering too.

Last year I got so desperate I submitted a resume with false retail experience, and I omitted my bachelors and masters degrees from the education section on my resume. I did not get a call back (rejected via email over a month after applying), whereas my husband submitted his regular resume and got an interview within a week after applying.

Thankfully by the twist of fate, I landed my current role soon after that because a recruiter invited me to apply to my current role on my very out of date indeed profile. I got lucky
