Man, this thread has bigger people than me, that's for sure. Your wife, person you're responding to are saints. I wanna be a paramedic, cuz I wanna try n do something that I feel somewhat matters and I'm cool under emergency situations without trying, but old folks homes is a fucking no-go for me. I'd still not want to be briefly in one for a call (I mean, I'd still do it), but working in one?? Naw, eff that. Dementia, Alzheimer's, shitty places, lonely old folks—I can't fucking take it.

One of my first gf's had me visit one with her, my description of the visit is too long to bother on my cell, but the minute I could finally get her to let us leave I told her you try n do that shit again and I'll sooner break up. shivers fuck that visit in particular

Bless yo wife and op you're responding to, y'all better folks than I'll ever be.
