It wasn't just housekeepers. They didn't have PPEs for surgeons, doctors and nurses that were treating covid infected.

At the time, I created a print farm and was printing PPEs for hospitals all around the Seattle area. I like to believe my tiny effort saved someone's life.

It really showed how unprepared hospitals are. My boss was saying “it’s not our job to make sure there are a million n95 masks in stock for everyone” like yeah it kinda is. We were trained to always use ppe and told how important it is, suddenly an actual crisis hits and they’re acting like masks aren’t necessary

It is their job to make sure you are safe. A global pandemic when millions of people are dying. Ya. I would also quit as well. Your decision might have saved your own life and maybe even more than just yourself. Good job!
