Oh fuck. I have borderline PTSD from those days. Working for critical infrastructure and my wife as a medic. We’ve never ever worked so hard.
And people just being paid furlough and picking up fucking hobbies while we were nearly dead from overwork.
Fun fucking times.
I had people telling me that medical workers didn't deserve extra pay because it was "expected" that they would work in dangerous situations. Fucking called them heroes but couldn't afford to pay them what they were owed.
I am in infrastructure as well. First few months I worked from home with the kids while my wife the nurse went to the nightmare every day. When things got to the point where I had to come in it got even worse.
