If physical or mental health issues bar you I’d consider that different. I never really understood how you can live your life being a NEET. Its a term I’ve known about for awhile but only recently remembered was a thing. Do you have bills? Do you have autonomy in general? Whats the living situation look like? Is the term offensive? I have a ton of questions really. Not here to shit on anyone I’m just full of curiosity on this one.

      Yeah, I found a cause I supported, and my first job hired me based on my support for the cause. And, you know, the low pay. Now I’m in law school, which I feel wishy-washy about. I do think I’m better off in law school than trying to find another job in this economy.

        similarly with working in mental health. my first job was also with criminally insane men so in addition to the low pay it was also stupidly dangerous. but now that I’m an RN on a lower acuity unit and one of the few nurses with that kind of high acuity experience so it did give me something valuable? 😭
