On the other hand, I would rather have a job that continues to be needed than no job at all. I think I'd prefer having some resources to help myself and my loved ones during the societal collapse.
the other downside is that I don't feel like it's my place to be the one rioting out in the streets because I specifically picked a patient population that will be THE FIRST to be abandoned. Many of my patients have physical as well as mental disabilities. We have at least three ID patients right now who would just get prostituted at best, and a good portion of the homeless people willing to fake or exaggerate psychosis or suicidal ideation for a bed are often doing it because they also have a bum leg or a broken back and won't make it on the street for an extended period. If I quit my job it's not some spoiled rich bastard who's going to suffer, in fact they'll probably do slightly better for not having to pay my wages. I'd probably adapt ok to health outside the system (I'm already making do with it's scraps on the daily) but I just... I'm also trying really hard not to think about the "wellness camps." Me being forced to abandon these people is just going to be the beginning.
I take care of my elderly parents and they would not last very long without me. I have fears of what could happen to me but they're greatly compounded by having people dependent on me. I'm so glad I don't have any children, at least.
