Am I a bad person for remaining employed?
I feel guilty for having a job right now. I really do. How can I not, when so many are struggling? And you might feel bad if you’re employed, too. You may think, “Any of my unemployed friends could do this job—why do I get to have it?” but that thinking doesn’t get anyone far. You know what gets someone far? If you perhaps share a little bit of your money right now with someone who can’t afford to feed herself or pay her rent. Don’t feel bad about your employment. Share the fruits of your labor.
