How did I wind up at an Australian Disability Enterprise (ADE)?
Being queer, trans, disabled and mad is an experience of joy, beauty, community and safety. Despite this, I am yet to meet another person with the same shared identities that hasn’t also experienced abuse, violence, neglect or exploitation.
Nothing about my DES experience has helped me, writes Arietta. I do not matter - and never will - to a system that is designed to squeeze profit out of me with no care for my well-being.
Industrial laws and practices favour people who can work a 40 hour week, every week, between particular set hours. Those who require more flexibility are often overlooked, even though they can get the job done perfectly well – just not in the usual 9-5 fashion.
