[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unmade bed, used ppe and old Chinese on the floor suggest a gal who's so depressed she can't even take care of herself. Yet when she goes to visit her family over the holidays (likely in flyover country), she'll posture she's happy with an exciting job in the big coastal city, and is just way too busy for a serious relationship. Meanwhile her "simple" cousins she always secretly judged never left the hometown's region, they became nurses, teachers or stay at home moms — they're married with kids and a mortgage.[/quote]
What makes you think that this woman is not a nurse or a teacher? Or that she doesn’t have a mortgage?[/quote]

On top of that - nurses and teachers are resigning en masse because of a pandemic. Especially in flyover country that insists on in-person learning and no masks. Meanwhile all the women my age in cities are working safe at home while still collecting six figures.
