    I worked in marketing. Though…

    • I create materials/tools to help patients with chronic diseases stay adherent to medication while building a better lifestyle
    • I made materials to convince health insurance companies to cover medications

    So, it’s not all bad. I moved on to hospital records analysis to identify things that would kill people, and now work in protocols and systems that help preserve the privacy of user data (one of them even uses ActivityPub).

    I’ve been pretty fortunate in the jobs I’ve been able to find.

      “Look, I’ve worked with other vulture companies to convince them to get better PR by not being absolute soul-rotting evil all the time!” is not the flex you think it is, R.E. insurance compainies.
