At my job, I deal with patient files in a hospital network outside the US. One thing hit me today, much harder than usual: a lot of patients deal with dementia and other neurocognitive decline situations in their 70s, and even sometimes late 60s. It is common, as many know, around the world. But if we are to work until retirement at 65 (if we even get to retire then), a lot of us could work their whole lives, sacrifice dreams and moments with friends and family, just to potentially enjoy 5 to 15 years in good health (if we're lucky). So today, I'm walking around at work as if I got a sinister diagnosis, even though I'm healthy.

Had no less than 10 interviews for unique employers, some of which interviewed me 2 and 3 times for the same role. Of those, 3 actually sent me an email that said they have made a decision and I wasn’t it. The rest? Nothing. Now, I’m interviewing for mid career, degree and experience required in my finance field. The lack of professionalism to interview someone, put them through the ropes, then not even let them know “yes” or “nah” is really frustrating. You owe the working world nothing, and they in turn owe you nothing. I’ll not grant any other interviews in 2023 until a time I decide I want to.

I am in the middle of Season 1 and Jesus, there is so much they get right about work culture. I get excited over free pens. I am so fucked.

So I work in a fast food place and there's just recently been a change in management, well I always talk to one of my female co-workers I was aware she had a boyfriend just usually kind of flirted with her wasn't trying to you know be a douche or anything. But then out of nowhere my new “boss” get super aggressive because I'm talking to this co-work I always talk to well it turns out that's his girlfriend and they didn't want anyone to know. Seriously Guy was threatening me at work and everything, I didn't care enough to get into all that. Anyways what I'm here asking is if y'all think I have any legal recourse.
