I am an occupational therapist working at a hospital. We are fighting for better working conditions to FINALLY get some relief. All the pressure and distress is captivating and harmful for all of us. Nurses, doctors, therapists, and every single person working in the german health care system. We could do so much better if the system would let us. But we need fair payment, more employees, and a fucking personal life.

And I feel hope. I really do. I am willing to fight for a better future. And we will fucking get it.

At my job we are trying to get some union work going and it is tough as nails. I feel that flame of activist me burning higher every day. Nevertheless it is hard. Some of my co-workers are so into it and others don't give a shit. Today I had a discussion with one of them and it was exhausting. His arguments against unions didn't make any sense. I think he can't see through all of this mess. The people working in the german health care system need to be saved. And people like him don't get it yet.
