I enjoyed your first job story and have so many thoughts about it.

This was such a demanding job for you during the time of your early development, with a nice sprinkle of brutality. Not dismissing or diminishing the valuable things you learned from this experience!

You were pursuing the fine arts of violin and then thrust into the processing of chickens as your job, and these are very different life pursuits.
I'm sure (Actually I know...) that you could write books regarding the dynamics involved. I know you have already spoken of some of these dynamics in past posts.

I think you are a shining example of someone who has experienced many aspects of the raw reality of life and also is an example of someone who has always put forth a valiant effort in these life experiences.

I have a close family member who started off as a violinist and life took her in the direction that brought my existence into this message, so it hits close to home.

I sent you a message on discord, I'd love to catch up with you on some things and I hope all has been going well for you!
