I did retirement home training and used to think it was a sweet job. Then I got in the business and underestimated how demoralizing it was as they give you the easy elders in training while the others make you, or at least me, really think of the fact the job just amounts to an unkarmic freebie.

    Off-topic: Lemmy really needs better crosspost functionality.

    Lemmy is a small group of people, let’s not divide it further by having the exact same conversation in two (or more) places.

      no, it’s a feature, not a bug, that we can have more than one community for discussing the same topic here; makes it harder to censor

        Especially given that the above link points to lemmy.ml, an instance notorious for harbouring tankies & amplifying pro-authoritarian talking points.

        The link is .ml but points to a thread in .world. My bad 😅

          no, we are posting to a community on lemmy.ml here, that link points to a community hosted on lemmy.world (as displayed on lemmy.ml)

          idc because neither of those is my instance, I subscribe to communities regardless of what instance they’re hosted on

            Confusing… My instance is .world, and I similarly subscribe to communities regardless of instance. So seeing a .ml link had me go 🚨 tankie instance for a second, conveniently failing to notice that A: that post is in .world, but seem from .ml; and B: this post is in .ml.

            My bad 😅

            Though I would suggest OP to see if they can fix the link to one that changes the specific link based on the visitor’s instance
