    When I worked at a nursing home in High School for my CNA course, I learned that I wasn’t going to be paid and my Father lost his job around then, meaning that I wouldn’t be able to pay for my certification but would still need to show up to work there. I was the only male in class so I had to take care of every male patient and give them baths, wipe their asses, I even noticed an issue with a patient’s stool that a doctor didn’t know about, all that and I didn’t get paid. The staff were also very rude and above all else they were on your ass and watching your every move to make sure you don’t break rules or do something wrong in any way, but when you needed help they’re nowhere to be seen. The day that I realized I wouldn’t be able to pay for the test and I wasn’t going to receive any money or certification for my work, I went to the bathroom and almost cried. I had been taught to hate Lenin all my life and I was a Bernie supporter but I decided while I was in the bathroom to read a quick biography of Lenin’s life, read a few lines of speeches. Ever since that moment, I despise the people who run that place. It’s been a few years and to this day I still hope the owner of that place rots in hell for making certificates so expensive and for exploiting underage people for free labor. Fuck those people, I will remember those pricks until I die, I’m not letting that grudge go anytime soon.
