Ouch! Your analysis, talking points, and strategies are first rate. But, from up here in orbit, excruciatingly painful. I see you brilliantly tweaking the cage: oiling the hamster wheel, retrofitting nonskid on the rungs, adding handrails, and confectioning a safety net under the structure just in case one falls through the gaps.

The question I ask is, what would it take for you to break out of the working-stiff cage? You deserve a lot more. To be subservient to assholes in their asshole world is beyond humiliating and soul-crushing.

One prerequisite is to break the bonds of money dependance. That's a tough one when we're caught in the quicksand attached to the financialized umbilical cord. However, it's doable. The price is high. But, ultimately, what's the other option?

You just described the very thing I’ve been trying not to admit. And now that I’ve read it… I can’t unsee it. It’s time. Haha

Low recognition, low affirmation, low pay, while doing more, more, more, simultaneously handling super complex customer relations —> I‘m on sabbatical now.

Nothing is more important than your health — as you wrote.

Thanks for the rant, Mariah 😁

Exactly. At the end of the day, I want everyone to have a better quality of life, and a clearer understanding of what they’re going through. Because truthfully? It’s not our fault. It’s the systems. The patterns. The expectations we’ve inherited and never questioned. The more we talk about it, the more we wake up, together.
