Lol I read that as "first responders or 911" as in nine one one. I would say the addition of a / might have clarified it. But that doesn't diminish my failure at reading comprehension.

I'm fairly confident that you are generalizing this a bit and that there are police and fire fighting departments on this planet that employ nurses. In general though, first responders who get injured end up in the same system than the people they save and need medical attention: hospitals. If you are in need of nurse aftercare, you are probably off on sick leave - so what would the nurse actually do? Especially in the smaller bf-nowhere operations, I don't see how you could justify the cost. Plus, most firehouses have paramedics already. They're not the same as a nurse but bring a lot of similar skills.
If we are honest with ourselves, we all have biases that end in -phobia. They are on a siding scale and get more pronounced in certain situations. The assholes in society don't gaf about their biases and don't care if they say or do hurtful things as a result. The more enlightened people know about their lizard brain biases and try their best not to act on them.
Maybe you are a bit homophobic. But you are aware of your biases and you can make sure you don't act on them in a way that is hurtful to other people. Knowing is half the battle. So don't beat yourself up over it. From what I've been reading in your post you are doing it right.
There is no simple answer to this. It's like at least three factors interacting. How much empathy do you feel towards the other person? How close is your relationship on the scale of strangers bumping into each other on the street to best friends forever? How big an issue has any of this been objectively (or as close as you can get there)? So that's three sliding scales to adjust to get an outcome. The closer a relationship is, the harder this can be because there is history and people (I'm including myself in this) can be very petty.
Just judging by the hints you dropped you should probably reconsider your approach to your coworkers. And I don't mean you need to be submissively apologetic all the time and share everything from your private life, even your hemorrhoid problems, with the crew. You'll probably make your life easier just on a human level plus improve odds of promotion if you do more of that, even if it feels more line cosplay to you. I share your "grow the eff up"/no bullshit stance but that only works in a group of like minded people.
I think it's the wrong label, anti-intellectualusm. Sense of reality might do it more justice. I think there are two factors at play. 1) how much does higher education cost you? Does it put you in debt you'll be lucky to have paid off before you retire? Have other people gotten degrees and still ended up unemployed? Why get majorly in debt to get no job in the end? That's more a North American specific problem. I'm in Asia and I haven't heard anybody shit talking college degrees in favor of the trades. 2) We need plumbers and carpenters and welders and whatnot. And due to declining birth rates in many places and the fact that the numerous birth years of the boomers are retiring and will continue to retire in the short term, we are running out of sparkies, masons, and HVACs. So if you had to career advise people today, you'd be silly not to bring up a profession with near certainty of getting a job once you're trained up.
Shitty work environments exist in more high brow professions as well.
Think about it
I have done that. I'm just more forgiving than you. They may have shot the go ahead scene and cut it for an unrelated reason. They may have decided not to want to get Romijn or Mount do another ADR session, which costs money. The Paramount/Skydance merger loomed heavily over this season's production with tight budgets and uncertainty for the future. I'm not saying the episode is perfectly put together. I guess what I am saying is that you are hung up on one detail here. I suggest you give it the Elsa treatment.
This is my perspective: this is a silly show. They did a musical episode, which I really didn't like. They did a documentary episode, which I could've done without. I feel Babylon 5 did a much better job with this kind of meta TV episode. They took the established "space dad" Pike character and made him unsure and hesitant this season and I don't know why. They are taking a soap approach to relationships within the show. The show is a dead man walking with its end after 5 more episodes already decided. All new Trek shows have already been axed and I'm not optimistic about the success of Academy. S31... With all of this going on in the background I choose to smile that SNW exists and not cry because the stories are wonky here or there.
People are mad. There are mad people on both sides.
Consumers can feel very empowered by a few hundred followers and one bad experience. And that translates more into a diss track, embelished and dramatized, than an honest review. Entrepreneurs justifiably fear this because this can hurt their businesses significantly. So they fight back with this legal retcon attempt. It's most likely not enforceable - and they probably know that too. If they wouldn't mind you speaking positively about you online, they cannot keep the negative stuff out either (as long as it is based in fact, libel is a different story). This little boiler plate serves only to give pause to the consumer. It plants a seed of restraint in their minds (if they actually read it).
Humans are a complicated species.
We can all agree kids shouldn't be watching porn. We do not agree on how to achieve this.
That was only option 2.
You need to try for yourself. Or consult a therapist who knows you well enough. Us idiots on the internet cannot look inside your head.
Guys, I'm like her. I learned to trust my gut and stand on my own two feet. And I think they are mad and most of what they say ought to be ignored.
The inch I would give them is that governments all over this planet have probably overreacted during the pandy. Which is easy to bitch about in hindsight but becomes often very easily comprehensible when you look at how decisions had to be made quickly, under pressure, never with all the information at hand, and being driven by erring on the side of caution. They may have been the stopped clock that was right twice a day on some of those pandemic restrictions. That doesn't mean they are right about everything else. And we might need the magic castle to become the ground zero for a massive outbreak of easily avoidable diseases for more people to realize that. Aided by chem trails, I guess. JFC.
The voices I hear tell me to look forward to hearing about the skeletons in the Ladapo closet. He might have an extramarital affair; she might be sniffing glue. Or they imprison their cleaner. A tax dodge at the very least. It's going to be something even the angels couldn't warn her about.
