I take covid seriously so I don't want to go to a bar, and even if I took it less seriously I wouldn't want to date the kind of person who spends their time at a bar fielding romantic inquiries during a pandemic. I've tried dating apps and have not had any good experiences to speak of. I unfortunately have to work but I assure you that during a shift of hard manual labor in sometimes over 100 degree conditions and extremely high humidity, the last thing I'm thinking about is whether that guy who is literally soaked head to toe in sweat, dirt, miscellaneous grease, and potentially hazardous chemicals is cute.
How does this even work? The last time I was around people I could just freely interact with and try my luck I was in my first year of high school, when I had a crush on a girl 3 years older than me which was a prospect so doomed to fail that even I knew better than to pursue it.
I'd like to join a volunteer org but in my area that task actually becomes create a volunteer org which ... I work 50 hours of manual labor a week and I know some people manage that and also do other things but that just doesn't work for me.
On a side note, one of my coworkers has two other fucking jobs. I've asked him when he sleeps before. He did not have a straight answer for me. Granted he spends significantly less time at this job than I do, but I still can't imagine.
