Ive been taking care of some hexbears IRL this week, and some over the phone (not naming names but its been discussed by them in other recent threads).
Seems like a lot of people have been going through it lately, so im sending my best wishes and love to all you comrades, and if you need anything, holler at me. If you’re local, I can offer you shelter, and if you’re not, im well versed in addiction and can be a supportive ear.
That’s all i guess, just hoping yall are doing alright.
I was doing mechanical drafting (which mostly wound up being steel detailing), so we used tech (I had a gaming laptop at work) but it’s not really a “tech” job. It took me about six years of unemployment to get that job, and I wound up saving nothing because I was too dazed from work to even wash my clothes or cook regularly. I needed around 12 hours of sleep to “recover” each day and spent a lot of the weekend just in a stupor.
I think it did give me some experiences and allow me to reflect on what I should avoid, which is unfortunately a lot of things. In the general mega, someone suggested kitchen work, but I either go completely mute or completely lock up if someone yells at me (or I feel like they are), so kitchen work is probably a complete non-starter. Which, given that at least some clients are like that, mean I can’t really do client facing stuff either.
