Optimism and ignorance (vaccination reservations)

Medinilla watercolor + CG

I received my coronavirus vaccination ticket on Friday.、I made a reservation from my computer.。Adjusting schedules and other chores、I logged into the reservation site after 1pm the next day.。There is no choice anymore、Only some time slots are open on the final day of the vaccination schedule.。After all、1The third time、2Both times were in July (the second time was July 31st)。Although I was left feeling dissatisfied with the fact that I had no choice, even though it was the day after I received my vaccination ticket.、I was able to make a reservation anyway.、That alone made me feel like my Saturday work was done.。

"Isn't there a reception slot for each day?" I said on Sunday morning (that is, this morning).、My son said this while we were having a late breakfast.。—Ah、That's right。It may have been an option only for that day.、That's when I thought for the first time。If you think about it, if you open all the frames completely.、In effect, it becomes a first-come, first-served competition.。Every local government should take this into account、It is better to think that the reception slot for that day must be set.、rather natural。

It's good because I was able to make a reservation for now.、I guess you could say I'm optimistic so far.。But、Is there a way to make a reservation a little earlier?、How is the reception slot released?、I had no idea that、It's because of ignorance。“For example, in ○○ city、These daily reception slots are open to the public,'' he said on his smartphone.。Unfortunately, such information was not made public in our city.、Even if it is, if there is no such knowledge、I can't even think of looking at it。

Not knowing is Buddha、There is a word。Being ignorant in a sense makes you optimistic.、That is to say、If you turn it over as it is, it will be "hell if you know"。actual、Maybe I should change my reservation now that I know that.、I had a bit of a hectic and ``disgusting'' time.。“If you are prepared, you will not suffer”、For any disease or disaster、How should I prepare?、tools for that、how to obtain knowledge etc.、You can't prepare for anything if you remain ignorant.。On top of that, ``no illness = optimism''、It should be read as、Navel bending resists。``It's because I'm not afraid、Isn't it possible for people to do new things?。"but、I feel a little bit wrong in my heart。

Work style not reformed

"At Miyashiro Sports Park" I caught a glimpse of it while moving.、A place that feels good

What does it mean to “work”?。Change that “definition” from what it used to be、Aiming for a “new way of working”、Isn't that what "work style reform" is all about?。Onlineization has accelerated due to the coronavirus pandemic、Wasn't reform supposed to proceed?。I'm a lazy person who doesn't even work, so I'm saying this.、The only topics being talked about are time savings and the online environment.、The meaning of "work" itself is hardly ever questioned.、It is a sport that is firmly connected to the essence of current sports.。

In terms of working hours and methods、It's true that there may have been a slight change (not a reform at all) in the literal sense of "work style".。Restaurants have started making items for takeout.、A few percent of office workers are now able to work without going to the office.、Delivery people are busier、I started to wear down my physical strength.。But、Although this is simply a “change in work style”、There has been no reform anywhere.。You can't live without working、Work style = way of life、If so、``Work style reform'' without thinking about ``how to live'' and ``what kind of lifestyle do you want to live?''、It's not even the mochi you see in the picture.。

The basis of "work style reform" is to change the equation that "working = earning money = providing time and physical strength."、I think。work ≠ earn money、But it's okay、Earn money ≠ Donate your time and energy。anyway、Isn't "reform" a change from this equation?、I think that。The company is above the individual、Changing the tragic mindset that you can't survive unless you get hired.。Isn't that the engine of reform?。

After getting a job at a big company and living a “safe and secure life”、Traveling abroad leisurely and at your own pace is still a post-war idea, especially among older people.、I guess it remains as a delusion.。Somewhere, ``with the sweat of my brow'' ``for the sake of the world''、for people、"I don't care about self-sacrifice" for the sake of the company.、Are we still spreading a false sense of "virtue"?。that's a child、I don't even realize that I'm having a negative impact on my grandchildren.、Isn't it becoming a sophisticated society?。Instead of giving lessons like, ``The world is not so kind that we can live by playing,''、Wouldn't everyone be happy if we became such a society? That feeling of affirmation、I think Japan, which is bound by this slave nature, needs it most right now.、I think so.。

パルスオキシメーターを買った

メディニラ　水彩・ペン・ファブリアーノ紙

パルスオキシメーターを買った。しばらく前から、買った方がいいかなと妻が言っていたが、とうとう買ったようだ（中国製。日本製は高くて買えなかったらしい）。パルスオキシメーターは心拍数と血中酸素飽和度を測るもの。最近は特に人差し指の先を挟むタイプのものをメディアでよく見かけるアレ。運動選手は、負荷を確かめながらトレーニングの内容を決めたりするのにも使っているらしい。

買ったその日は、家族全員が代わる代わる指を挟む、ハサむ。わたしは酸素飽和度が高く、ほぼ99％。But、なぜか心拍が弱い（逆に心臓が強いからそんなに拍動しなくてもいい？）ように見える（視覚化される）。Besides,、なぜか人差し指だと「心停止」してしまう。小指なら生き残れる。息子の指はわたしより太いのに、ちゃんと人差し指で測れるから指の太さのせいではない。コレフシギナリ。「心拍数」はわたしの場合、安静時ならほぼぴったり60（それがペースメーカーの仕事）。But、翌日からもう誰も測らない。わたしもそれが今どこに在るのか知らない。これで、いざという時役に立つのか—立たないね。買っただけ、持っているだけの安心感の好例を更新。

コロナ禍で、入院したくても自宅療養せざるを得ない人が、自分または家族が現状を把握し、適切に医療機関に連絡する際の重要データとして、「酸素飽和度」がひとつのキーワードになっていることをメディアは再三取り上げていた。その影響で買ったわけだが、一時はこの器具が品薄だったという。皆同じことを考え、同じ消費行動に走ったということは、かつての「トイレットペーパーの争奪戦」とおなじ構図だと言われている。その時は「どうせデマがデマを呼んでいるだけだ」と冷静でいられた我が家が、それが今回ということは、教訓が生かされていないというより、「前よりバカになった」ということになると思う。

パルスオキシメーターは「バカの程度を測る器具」ではもちろんないが、見ようによってはそういう装置とも受け取ることができる。かつてトイレットペーパーを山と積んだ人も、結局はすべて費消できたと思うけれど、パルスナントカはどうか。場所を取らないことが（すでにどこにあるかさえ分からないのだから）せめてもの取り柄ではあるが。
