Trudge Forward
Chronic pain
Chronic grief
Chronic sorrows
Chronic despair
Chronic disappointments
Chronic setbacks
Chronic reprimands by supervisors
Chronic blockage of opportunities
Chronic battles for inequality
Chronic life difficulties
Chronic false illusions of hope
Chronic deception by men
Chronic broken promises
Chronic upheaval of broken heart
Chronic intense negative rebuke
Chronic struggles
Chronic conflict
Chronic losses
Chronic devoid of support and motivation
All are inevitable
Despond and wary
The eternal Sisyphus Task
In the end death awaits all mortals
Survival is the goal
With faint hope and fatigue
With strength and resilience
I forge ahead
Soldier on!
I am a essential worker. I am also an exemplary employee, ergo, in 2020 era of turbulent times there is no margin for error or absenteeism. As New York City's coronavirus positivity cases is rising at an extravagant rate it is, surely, making me leary, despondent and wary with the "every man for himself" belief. Morale has gravely plateau. A unified cooperative approach that leads to better chances of success has rapidly declined. Nevertheless, to ensure a healthy and mentally phlegmatic disposition being tested is the resolution. This location absolutely does not make appointments as it is a "walk-in" basis for first come, first served policy. As I walk towards this medical clinic the big fat long line spewing outdoors snake around was very intimidating which forced me to take a day off from work. I arrived at 9 am on a mild cold December Monday morning and entered the site at 2:30 pm after five (5) arduous long exhaustive hours of standing outdoors waiting on line. The staff depicted minimal empathy by distributing hand warmers to patients and answer any general questions while standing outdoors waiting on line in the cold where kindness encourage a constructive outlook rather than negative rebuke which produces destructive dark thoughts. Humanity is sorrowfully lacking in turbulent times. The staff does very little to depict genuine compassion, empathy, support, boast morale, optimism for positive encouragement in turbulent times, ergo two Yelp stars. I received my result after twenty (20) minutes on site while sitting in the patient chair full of anxiety, wary and intense panic and worry, amid results are also emailed directly to patients. CityMD also have a online patient portal where patients can confidentially access their medical information. Computerized registration for check-in makes the process expedite to be confidentially seen by a physician. Temperature, and blood pressure are taken before the nose swab is administrated. I thought all COVID-19 tests were free of fees, but low and behold a male staff stated "all medical insurance covers COVID-19 tests."
Note: Bring valid photo identification, insurance card, and a working email address. CityMD complies with COVID-19 CDC compliance and guidelines. CityMD's website explains various COVID-19 tests offered and what proper measures and medical guidelines as per CDC should be taken, which are very resourceful. Be prepared to wait approximately a minimum of three (3) arduous hours standing on line outdoors. Absolutely no appointments. read more
