I want to save people from crap jobs, stupid doctors who tell patients to 'lose weight' without bothering to fix the condition that might impede any effort toward weight loss, and quarter-life/changing majors crisis.

But I know my suggestions will get shot down, and I'll have no way to point out people to talk to or any guarantee that the effort will bring a decent job. I know that any suggestions to see a fucking competent professional will be waved away with a 'It doesn't matter' (when it clearly fucking does). I'm not even sure if I can tell what to do if you feel you cannot do necessary things in one major, but not specify if you think you do necessary things in the other.

Then there is work, where everyone wishes stabby-death on the new system and guidelines, but nobody changes guidelines or makes everyone aware of how to fix problems or fill out paperwork. The recycling bins are full of screen prints I did wrong. I want to get it all in one place, but it is assumed it is the trainers' jobs. Never mind they are only slightly less clueless as the rest of us. Nobody seems to want to bell the cat.

(There was a time when I tried to 'avoid cliches like the plague'. Now, I think they are kinda fun. Hey, there is a reason why they become overused)

I also feel like a jerk because I haven't thought of how to meet up with people I haven't seen in a long while. I especially feel like a jerk because they are between jobs and trying to find ways to socialize. I don't know what to suggest.

I hope I get up early enough to help people move then play some games with other people.

Another person is physically ill, isolated, and playing video games. I have no idea how to help far away, and I don't want to move in.

I'm taking up the house reading while the original person does it at her house. I hope I will be a good hostess.

I wish that babysitting didn't cut into study time with someone, but I really do understand that they are doing what they can to help out. I know from my babysitting experience it would be impossible to do both.

I've also been putting off a visit long enough. Except that I want to do other stuff too.

I have no suggestions on how to deal with more-successful-than-you alumni (but you didn't bomb people or rip off books or anything) or stupid bosses or bitchy in-laws or not getting a job you wanted or fandom wanking. Same-sex marriage and wiretaps and blockage of VRA renewal is making me feel like screaming "I can't donate right now!"

I've thought of working more toward being able to influence people and solve problems as part of a group. I wonder how I can take these disparate concerns and get others' suggestions.

I feel limited. Oh well, when civilization collapses, I'll contribute by letting people turn my cadaver into mulch.
