Honestly : fuck that.

I don’t agree that we should do that- especially as I will be looking for a job next spring...

If anything I have become more of a Trump supporter during the pandemic. Not because Trump necessarily did a good job (he didn’t), but because he is the less likely candidate to destroy jobs when I desperately need one.

I already had to go to school for another year because while I could have left last year, the shutdown ruined my job prospects. My mental health has also gotten worse as a result of the social distancing measures. I cannot go for another year to receive money as an instructor and therefor cannot agree to another shutdown...It isn’t selfish- people need money to eat and my life is just as important as those with COVID
