It’s so fucking hot in this house

I got hurt at work

Except I didn't really get hurt at work

I got hurt practicing my skills and building the strength to go back to work

And then I got hurt more working too much

Well now I can't work

I have a good job

I make good money

I'm (almost, kinda, maybe gonna be) in a union

They fought hard for protections for us

They built systems the state failed to to support us

That's why we pay our dues

That's why we accept seniority and work for their contracts

That's why we put up with industry standards and unreliable staffing

Where are they now

Who knows

My friend got hurt at work

Except it wasnt really at work

She was born wrong

Despite the valiant efforts of her mother and doctors

She was born wrong

And now? There's no escape, but to keep trying

Throwing ourselves against the wall and grinning and beating the pain until we earn our place at the table

Surely it will only be a couple more weeks, months, years, who knows

We aren't supposed to be here

We are supposed to go to school, and get trained, and work our way up in the industry, and by the time we reach the halls in which we sit we are supposed to know how to do everything right and be welcomed with open arms and juicy contracts

We were supposed to live a dream set out for us by generations of violence and suffering

But then everyone died and the ones who didn't either ran for the hills or couldn't have been bothered to trudge through door after door after door slammed in their face

So here we sit, the only ones left

But they don't thank us for being here, they tell us to shovel shit, shit up, figure everything out ourselves, and good luck surviving because that's what they did to be where they are

I'm out of work for a week

Hopefully I will be able to get help

Hopefully there will be a net I can fall into and find some way to keep feeding tickets into the machine

To keep everything running so those precious few can keep basking in lights they'll never have to understand

And when I can't find any more tickets I will be too broken and tired to do anything but lay in my grave

sometimes i'm like "am i gonna be the next tiktok that says 'having a main character moment' if someone sees me look out the window in the car while listening to music"
