I’m the same age. When I graduated college 10 years ago my dad tried talking me into the air force. I’m so glad I didn’t do that; I would have despised serving under this President.

They could want their copper, lumber, moose, pasties, shoreline, etc. There are many things. \s

This has been a big concern of mine. My mom has chronic health issues that gives her similar issues, and I already take after her in more ways than I’d like. I worry I’ll inherit these problems if I go on HRT.

Both jobs were only part time, so it wasn’t every day, but it was still around 3 times a week, so recovering from it was difficult. It was dependent on when the trucks arrived.

About a decade ago I worked a few weeks at ShopKo. Their hours were terrible; they’d make you work 5-9pm to unload the trucks, then make you work 5am-1:30pm the following morning to restock the shelves.
You get exactly 8 hours between shifts making it physically impossible to get 8 hours of sleep. And since the hours were spread so wide throughout the day it was impossible to have a regular sleep schedule. It’s legal for companies to do this to their workers in the US. I was also only paid around $8.50/hr, but that’s beside the point.
In a similar vein, my next job was at another retail store. One time I requested a weekend off to help a friend move, but they denied it and instead made me work 7 days in a row, Wednesday through Tuesday. They got away with it because the company’s shift tracking app ends the work week on Saturday, so it didn’t realize I worked a week straight.
I was paid around $10.50/hr on average there.
