My teacher coworker shares a portable with the nurse and that nurse is a total COVID denier. Thankfully not my school.

This pisses me off so much as a health care provider.

This is deep into the country, the reddest red. The school almost unteaches more than teaches because reality doesn't agree with conservative nonsense.

I wish it was isolated to there but I live deep in the bluest of blue Willamette Valley of Oregon and 1/2 my coworkers are too dumb to use the degrees they earned and just do what their husbands say. Which as a woman pisses me off so bad. I guess I’m really an angry person these days.

There's plenty to be angry about. Gotta say, especially for women.

Not all of the willamette valley is blue. In fact 5 miles in any direction from Portland proper is 50/50, and 15 miles from city center is reliably republican.
Suburbia is pretty much 50/50 across the country, give or take 5 percent.
Youre right to be angry, it means you’re informed, and you care. But do give yourself a break, these things are mostly out of your hands and it’s rare that you can change anyone’s mind.

I feel you. I take pride in being an entirely self-made woman. I paid off my house already...handle all my own physical labor on my property if it's in my power to fix something. If I married into that situation I would freaking dissolve.

I find that I hate people more & more. I'm not a covid denier, but I am against blanket mandates. I have lifelong chronic health issues because of a vaccine (anthrax). So, I'm hesitant about new vaccines. I'm waiting because it's what's best for me. But, I'm not going to go out & shame someone for getting the vaccine or for not wearing a mask. Your body, your choice.

I worked IT in a hospital for a bit last year and I'm sorry to say this but the amount of nurses and doctors that we had come through our office that were flat out COVID deniers was insane. For nurses, at least, it seemed like the more educated they were the dumber they got. The LPNs were the fucking worst.

covid-deniers or anti-covid-vaxxers?
I mean, how do you work in a hospital and deny that covid is real while they're running out of ventilators over in the next wing?

I took the train with someone who refused to wear a mask on the subway the entire pandemic who literally was the guy who ran inventory control on the ventilators.
Fuckface didn't even believe it was real.

You would be surprised, my dude.
We had two traveling nurses come in and both of them told us that COVID isn't real, what people are getting sick from is just a flu strain.

LPNs or LNPs?
(Now I know my ABCs).

Or as a literate person. Human. Being able to utilize tools…multicellular organisms…
Just generally it is pretty disappointing people be so dumb. But they do be like that.

Same. It infuriates me when I see other health care providers peddling bullshit especially when it comes to vaccines. They know better!

what the heck is a portable? a laptop?
big_nothing_burger t1_itcdjbl wrote
Lol it's one of many terms for a modular / temporary building / trailer.
dofffman t1_itcht88 wrote
I was thinking it must be a living situation but I could not figure it out. I was thinking maybe like an efficiency.
Bryanb337 t1_itd9tus wrote
Because education is so poorly funded in this country many schools need to use portable structures to supplement for building space.

I think it’s just a work situation vs living
