Afraid of going to the office due to potential violence
It's happened in the past - protesters actually got INTO the Mason office. In this current atmosphere I am literally afraid to go to a centralized location where we are easier targets for some nutjob like the one who ki-led the UHC CEO.
I’m overworked out of my mind
