I work in financial advertising, and I specifically do social media marketing. So, if you've read my political-satire, you can say it's all quite... ironic (you can also say the frustration was channeled from a certain place).
Well, you know the expression, "write what you know."

I worked in the restaurant industry for over 2 decades in every front of the house position - server, bartender, host. I spent the last 10 years of that career working at a 3 star Michelin restaurant in Manhattan. Love the industry but wanted 9 to 5. Now I'm in HR for a Japanese trading company.

Did you try glamourising your job? Maybe say you were up all night helping Batman? Or you were Santa’s helper making all the toys? It can backfire though. I was working as IT support for NGO and said we are helping the poor and she ended up saying we are poor and before you know it the school was asking if we were ok. 😂

My wife filled out a questionnaire at work and they asked "Do you feel safe at home?" She wrote "No". English isn't her first language, and she didn't realize she just announced to the world that she's in a physically or emotionally abusive relationship until I explained it to her. I kept expecting to get a visit, but...not so much. Apparently the object of the exercise was more about filling out the form than actually helping anyone.

I'm sorry to hear about the arthritis. Writing can be a wonderful escape sometimes. Also, you have nothing but my utmost respect for having been a family lawyer. When I was at uni, I thought I might want to do family law. Then I did some mini-pupillages and work experience and couldn't fathom how anyone could stand it. What really summed it up for me was seeing two lawyers negotiating a divorce and childcare access when the lawyer I was shadowing asked the other to get his client to give ours visitation over Christmas and was asked for a justification, my lawyer's response was to explain, then say, "Also, I'm going to eat my own head if they don't stop bickering about this.". Anyone who can put up with that is astonishing in my book.
