Story

I have been with Camaraderie For nearly two years, I started
out as in intern during graduate school (1 year) and then was retained as a
paid employee. In February of 2020 I was rear-ended on my way home form a long
shift at Cam and taken away in an ambulance, haven’t I suffered enough!

I think your money, if I may be so bold, would be better
spent on someone who is declining in age and is clearly experiencing muscle
atrophy. If I were you, and I am assuming you’re a good person, I would put
your money on pretty much anyone else.

However, if you’re a mean spirited person who likes to make the
downtrodden (former intern, violent car accident victim, father of a new born
and a four year old who roars at 6 am because he thinks he’s a dinosaur) suffer
then, I’m your guy. Just know that you’re choosing a peasant over a ruler and you
are a horrible person for that.

If you have made it this far in reading my post, I congratulate
you, your attention span is something my 4-year-old can aspire to. Speaking of aspiration,
I want to take a moment to talk about our men and women who served our country.
Our nation’s service members don’t just aspire to serve our nation, they are driven
to serve our nation. The old cliché that they wrote a blank check to uncle Sam is rooted
in reality. They wrote a blank check, preparing to give everything. All I am
asking of you is to write a check with an amount you are comfortable with. It goes
to our men, women and families that had their checks cashed and need healing.
