My rant for the day ;
Yesterday I went to get a glass of wine and something to eat after work. There was a table of people that asked me to join them and offered to pay. I declined because I really wasn’t in the mood and I knew I wouldn’t be good company /1
They kept asking and said come on over and have fun with us. I said I’m really not in the mood and I wouldn’t be good company.
One young lady looked at me and saw my scrub bottoms (I had on a Coming to America t-shirt) /2
I must say…this one was a little rough for me. As a physician that identifies as a Black woman with an “invisible” disability it hit too close to home.
How can WE determine how someone’s “dis”ability will affect their performance in any given field.
