I'm in this exact predicament for 3 fuckin years. Also have psychiatric drug induced damage (PSSD). Im going to end up just like this woman, although there's no way I can obtain a gun.
Everyone should be assigned a shotgun at birth, tbh.
I've heard the story of this woman. And it's been something that has frightened me ever since I first heard it because if I wrote a note this is close to what it would sound like. This woman is another version of me minus the addiction/criminal history.
From her letter it looks like it gets progressively harder to get placed with every year, which makes sense. You need to investigate how it actually works in practice. Universitites don't offer accurate information about this, you need to get in touch with the working sphere. I wouldn't be surprised if the US has specialised career coaches for med graduates, look into that. Like I said in your thread, if it turns out you're screwed, then you're screwed, but you're probably not screwed quite yet, even though it's menacing on the horizon. In any case you're not as fundamentally screwed as this woman. Going to medical school with a criminal record in the US, I'm not even sure what she was thinking. It was a doomed endeavor.
Don't forget a US economic structure designed to serve Zionist corporate interests . The priority is keeping octogenarian billionaires like the recently deceased adelson or sumner red stone alive and wealthy until the last minute . Before god almighty sends their asses straight and directly to hell
You might be onto something there regarding choosing simple professions if you have mental problems. I would like to consider myself smart and pretty decent as an employee but my performance does struggle when my mental illness decides to come and play, cos my chosen career is not the easiest one out there so then I quit shortly after and battle to find work again that's how the cycle goes.
Unless you're working with vulnerable people, or working in a bank, as a lawyer, etc, people should have the right to a private past. This is protected under EU law, but the UK has left the EU, so maybe this will change! I know someone who works in a supermarket with a burglary conviction, who just didn't disclose it when he applied. They have no right to access his records. If they found the newspaper article about his conviction from 10 years ago, they could sack him for lying I think, but he could appeal as part of the right to a private life. Google was forced under EU law to remove news articles about some people's past convictions, if the person applies, apparently.
This woman in OPs post as well as myself aimed to work with "vulnerable" people. But I think it's still ridiculous because my record has nothing to do with harming "vulnerable" people and neither does that woman's. It bears no relevance. Literally locked out of the job I actually wanted because of some total BS. I'm just disillusioned with the whole system. Why even bother trying if I'm not even going to be allowed a chance.
I agree. Just having a 'record' doesn't mean you are untrustworthy. I know in the UK they will consider minor convictions, especially if they were during your teens. But they would ask for all this before you even start your medical degree. I know someone who works as a hospital porter, pushing patients around in wheelchairs, etc, who went to youth offender's prison for a serious assault. But he's not medical staff. After a certain time period in the UK, a minor conviction is considered 'spent', so you don't have to disclose it, even if an employer asks. I don't understand why that woman didn't check first though, before pursuing her medical career. One of the scariest things happening here is police recording 'hate incidents', which can be disclosed to employers if you are applying for a 'vulnerable people' type role, despite no crime or conviction having taken place. Just someone perceived your behaviour as 'hateful', and the police believe them! The government has declared this a breach of everyone's rights and requested that the police remove all of these from people's records, but whether they have or not I don't know. It's communist-style 'thought police' type shit!
Yeah, the policing of people's beliefs, beyond the rule of law. One force here had rainbows painted on to the police cars - police are supposed to be apolitical - they're here to serve everyone; liberals, transphobes and everyone in between, no matter if we agree with them or not. I think what we're seeing now is brainwashed kids who went to uni in the 2010's rising into positions of power. Management positions in councils, police, school boards. Imagine what the kids who are at uni now will be like in 2030 - life will be insufferable once they're running the local police force!
