My shopping experience at Walmart yesterday.
I wasn't even sure where to categorize this post, if it should be in lifestyle or politics or society in general so I decided to post this under the topic of society...
I was running errands yesterday and I had to go to Walmart just for a few things. As I was ready to check out I went to the nearest cashier. As I got to the register, I saw the cashier and I thought I knew her, I glanced at her name tag and I knew who she was. As I approached the register she asked me if I was still in healthcare? I told her I went to private care. I said to her, your not anymore...she said to me she was taking a break.
She remembered me just as I remembered her too.
She was the charge nurse who I had to answer too when I started off in healthcare. I began at a nursing home as a CNA back in 2014. She was an RN. A Registered Nurse and now she is working as a cashier at Walmart because she refuse the vaccine!
I saw her as a great nurse, she was wonderful to the residents and she had compassion for the elderly who resided in that facility. Now I see her working at Walmart as a cashier.
We had a brief conversation about healthcare and the vaccine.
I don't know if it angers me or saddens me, because when it comes to healthcare, it is depleting at extreme length.
We healthcare workers were all "essential" when COVID hit us and we kept on working through the plandemic, now though in order to work in healthcare we need to be vaccinated!
There is no quality care anymore. Our healthcare program are losing so many good nurses like her, it saddens me. I don't even know where to begin.
I am not vaccinated, but I know some that are and those who are not as I'm trying to make sense of it all.
I really do not understand this.
I've worked in healthcare for many years and I lost my job last year. When COVID hit in 2020, my sister lost her job too and she wasn't even in health care. Her job was just shut down.
She was getting that $600 bonus for her job that
while I continued on working as essential worker.
Now I am unemployed and her benefits ran out and she went to Walmart. Now her job wants her back but she needs to be vaccinated to work there again.
My fiance, has a son who worked for the state in a healthcare facility for the disabled and he refuse the vaccine and lost his job. His girlfriend whom he worked with wanted to go back to school for nursing, to get her degree and she was required to be vaccinated to get into college. They both left their jobs there and now she is working in a nursing home until she goes back to school and on her first day, she was mandated to work over.
Why, because they are short staffed.
My fiance's daughter also went into healthcare and her job required her to be vaccinated and she has have had covid now for the third time. She is vaccinated and boosted and she still got covid. She works in a hospital.
How is it, that our essential workers who care about the quality of life for others are excluded from direct care to others.
I just do not understand it.
