I checked a government site for emergency response in my area, and they're full. They're still recruiting medical professionals and other specific qualified personnel, but they are not looking for grunts. I'm kinda strong, and I thought I could help my community if they need someone to show up and fill sand bags, organize and distribute supplies, etc. Nope. They do not need that kind of help.

I did data entry for a couple years before advancing to a position where I oversee data entry for a couple more, and at the end of that I felt like a zombie. I remember seriously thinking that I may as well already be dead.
