I work in remote medical admin and one of the most soul-destroying aspects of this job is knowing that I do administrative busy work which benefits health insurance companies and keeps some of the worst people in the world alive longer.

Case in point, one woman born in the late 1940s and educated as an academic came in to the office complaining about how she couldn’t go on a cruise ship because her restless legs syndrome and sleep apnea were acting up. And then she casually mentions that her husband was a sergeant in the ukr volunteer legion in Bakhmut. I looked up this parasite on LinkedIn and found she is a manager at a real estate company. I knew then that I had no fucking business in this dead-end low level job in an industry which is essentially a giant money laundering scheme. I hope her husband got his fucking head blown off and scattered to smithereens, and I hope she never wakes up from her sleep again.

I’m transitioning to an outdoor industry where I can learn about the natural environment and get in touch with the land, not stay trapped indoors forever with nothing but the voices of arrogant Baby Boomers for company.
