Chris Cuomo Reevaluating his Life, Occupation

Elri I — Tue, 14 Apr 2020 21:41:03 GMT

Apparently, he was on Sirius XM and divulged that he doesn't like what he does; it's not worth his time and certain things are more important than making millions each year.

You can check it out online, if interested.

I respect his reasoning very much.

Hi @Elri I I know the press latched on his rant from yesterday's show. Like most people, I think he's not used to being sick, doesn't like being separated from his family and is getting frustrated that two weeks in and the fever just won't quit. According to some reports today he said he's not going anywhere and loves his job.

He’s stressed and unhappy he can’t be with his wife and kids. I wouldn’t over analyze his comments right now. He’s said this illness is wearing on him emotionally. Give him a chance to get well first. Regardless of what decisions he ultimately makes, I wish him well.

He has enough money to retire if he chooses to

I wish him well in his recovery. As for his career choice and reevaluated philosophy of life, I'm just not interested.

I know he has a law degree and successful brother and parents so he probably plans and overthinks his life on most days, plus he comes across as a bit hyper. Imagine being in basement confinement and feeling sick, lonely, scared and humble. He's probably thinking -- to what end? Then someone puts a microphone in front of him and he yammers. No harm - no foul. In other words -- whatever, doesn't matter. I'm sure CC is bouncing off the walls and longing to be well and be with family.

I like Chris Cuomo a lot but haven't been watching his show or getting updates on his health. Is his fever not going down? It seems like he's been sick with this a long time. I hope he's able to get completely well soon.

I believe a lot of people are going to re evaluate what they do for a living. I also think many people will want a simpler life.

If I was self-isolating in my basement for two weeks with nightly high fevers, hallucinations lack of sleep, not seeing my loved ones and the uncertainty of what this horrid disease might do to me, I'd say a lot stranger things and would probably be hanging off a light fixture by now.

@jeanlake I've noticed one thing that he and his brother Andrew tend to say about the coronavirus "I can't control.....".

This is not a criticism because I could great either one of them on the street and say Namaste, the control freak in me recognizes the control freak in you

I retired two years ago, I'm an introvert and this coronavirus is getting on my nerves.

@RoughDraft: You are so right. The poor guy is also suffering from brain fog and depression something he has never had before. I feel for him because I deal with it also because I have Chronic fatigue syndrome and Fibromyalgia. And it is a living H*** along with low grade fevers.

Oh yes! I'm saying some things at times, that are out of character for me. And I'm not sick. I'm just sick and tired of life as we know it, right now

@Bird mama - Exactly. Good post. Having Wall Street law experience and hosting a news show then not being able to control your destiny - while being confined in family basement -- that has to turn your mind to mush on some days. He can say he's going to outer Mongolia and become a missionary and I'll give him a pass.

I have no idea why the spoiler ribbon surfaced. I can't even control my post.

He was outside with his family on Easter when a biker guy faulted him for not social distancing resulting in this verbal tantrum of his.

I dislike him a lot and hope CNN fires him. He is an unprofessional jerk.

@jeanlake Your signature reads:

"I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees." Henry David Thoreau

I have been reading Walden during this stressful time. I'm sure if Chris Cuomo read this and took it to heart, he might have come out with this same attitude; but, more importantly, he would have been able to sustain it.
