It's a fun game of pretend. I have a COVID, I'm disabled, I have asthma, I am homeless.
But I get to keep applying for jobs while I pretend I'm perfectly OK. And the second work starts, I'll be working full-time with COVID, as if I'm perfectly OK.
If I want to survive, the only way to do so is to act like I'm perfectly OK.
I deserve an Oscar.

P.S. Pittsburgh sucks. I wish I'd never come here. I wish I'd never believed in myself.
