IRL Updoot: The Updooting · 10:55pm May 8th, 2020
So Grandpa had to be hospitalized: long story short, his blood sugar tanked for the third time, causing Amber to freak out (we had only swapped two days before, and his blood sugar dropped to the 50's twice during my two weeks), and this time he was unresponsive. Ambulance was called, and the hospital stabilized him. This time they figured out what was wrong: pneumonia. So they're keeping him for a couple of days, just to make sure that's sorted out.
And I got sick this morning, yay. How I won't say, in case any of y'all are eating and reading this, but let's just say it involved the bathroom and leave it there.
Also got laid off, officially, due to corona. Back to jobhunting, and I'm keeping to the essential gigs that I can still access (janitorial, cashier, etc). It was on amicable terms, and I was warned a week in advance, so no hard feelings there. Updated my resume to reflect it, though. GG, got some polishing of my cleaning, listening, and socialization skills at least, and the stress testing necessary to handle the church rushes and my emotions overall. :) On that note, I'm more free to do commissions (FAQ has been updated), at least until I land another gig.
Well...that's quite a bit of an updoot. I hope your Grandpa get's better and you get an essential job soon, with all the things going on right now, a job is very necessary, even if I still think Fast Food(my current job) isn't entirely an 'Essential Job' like Medical or Store related jobs
Goodness. I will pray for your grandfather and hope you get a good job

Look at it this way.
People who can't or don't have time to cook can get food. Doctors running thirty two hour shifts, nurses who haven't slept in a week, etc.
For you and me(Grocery) it's providing for vulnerable people. As well as a semblance of normalcy. Think of the Waffle House Index used by FEMA to rate tropical storms. Society still stands and the world still turns as long as the Golden Arches are lit.

I kinda freaked out when my father had bad moments with his oxygen

You know, I completely forgot that Waffle House had it's own Index. But I do understand that people need food, the amount of food per person is a little silly. Even if they are ordering for maybe more than themselves they are ordering a tad too much
