TW: Sexual Assault TLDR: I busted ass for a small business because I was told we were “family” for almost 5 years. Resigned after being sexually assaulted by a patient, then reprimanded and berated by my boss for taking my hour break to wait outside our office building till after the man had left. Have continued to bust ass for my remaining 2 weeks and asked last night if I could have a letter of referral to apply for future work – the answer was “no, I don't do that”.

Slave owners were able to hoard huge amounts of unearned wealth, through the disgusting practice of slavery, making money through another human's forced labor. Just switch out [weekend] for [holiday] in the above quote… There's absolutely no parallels to our “modern” society and what we're seeing, though. /s

I was just gonna text that I have a fever and I'm not coming. Am I caring too much? It's a food service job.
