Antiwork

I’m 47, I grew up with a single mum who was still working her own shit out at 17 when she had two kids. She was a good mum and provided as best as she could. She eventually through endless hard work reached a stage of comfort and retired at 65 with enough capital to be just comfortable in her public housing unit. She also has starting to experience physical problems that will in no doubt affect her ability to enjoy the rest of her later years. I’ve not got any offical trade except transport and logistics, since I transitioned just over 7 years ago (m2f) I have not been able to get work in an industry I have over 20 years experience in. I worked Uber for some time and put up with major shit to the point I just can’t do it anymore. I did own a home…

Yesterday we had a bonding retreat for work. Mandatory. I mentioned something work related to relate to someone’s discussion. A manager for our company who I’ve spoken to a handful of times max grabs me by my wrist, pulls me two rooms over, and points to some poster they had made saying we can’t talk about work or anything related to work. I’m super salty, idk how to address it. Oh, and by the way, I’m autistic. Not that you have a right to grab anyone like that, but especially not me.
