Hello everyone, I am writing another blog post. Maybe several today. So yesterday morning was interesting, because basically I skipped a dose of medicine to be alert for volunteer work, and I am glad I did. But by the time it started, I was tired from a night of worrying about it. The reason I worried is because they bullied me last time. This worker named Georgina was giving out free plates and she kept giving me wrong instructions so the clients thought I wasn’t giving them plates correctly and it became an angry crowd of sorts. It wasn’t that bad but my team leader didn’t really believe me when I reported it. But it was so clear. But weirdly I was glad to see Georgina yesterday. But they did something else that they used to do a long time ago, which was assign me a name that is embarrassing to say when we called out names in front of everyone. I knew they did it and the name was Pena. That is their little game and the clients know it and get a kick out of it. But I caught it and reported it and when I wrote it up in the project notes, here is what they weren’t expecting: I remembered a specific name, actually two names, from when they used to do it a few years ago. And one of those names is Dong. Well I see a pattern, do you? My story rings a little bit too true, and I believe I could win a legal sexual harassment case over it. I felt proud of myself last night but told a friend and she felt there was still a case for paranoia.
Anyway that is interesting, but the other interesting thing is that throughout this whole thing, there was a Catholic church group there and the night before I had a religious vision that I think was a message from Mary. And I have to say she is so loving and nice and reminds me of the hospital people who have helped me. So that was a neat surprise. Be a skeptic about it if you want, but it is an interesting thing to have in the background when there are a lot of power plays at a food pantry.
