He did say he'll compensate me for the PTO that I won't be able to roll over to the next year because of this, but I'm half and half on believing him.

Also, not my boss denying all of my requested holiday PTO because of project deadlines in the middle of this. Thanks for that I guess. Probably going to be doing more crying until this project gets finished lol

It makes me even more upset when they start talking about leaving to go to a different country. Meanwhile, I'm scared that one bad move could get me deported to a country where I would not be able to be openly queer.

Weirdly, for me, going to places like the public library or a bookstore. Quiet places where you don't have to initiate conversations unless you want to, but can be around people.

If this job didn't offer the best health insurance compared to every other person I know, I would be so out of here. But being chronically ill means that good health insurance coverage is kind of necessary if I don't want to be in debt.

Paying rent also sucks because it doesn't help your credit score or anything else useful, it's just a blackhole of payments. But buying a home requires a down payment which also sucks. Basically owning and renting both suck, but with how high rent is SOARING it's starting to suck more than owning.
