I have a very funny experience regarding this "front-liners" topic.

You remember when the covid vaccine first came out? How most people were almost fighting to get ahead in line...applying all sorts of "jacks" and stuff?

As a Doctor I was entitled to receive the vaccine first. But the crowd that day was insane so I just had to wait my turn. And then about 15-20 mins later a few people started screaming at the top of their voices, shouting at the people controlling the queue - "We Are journalists, we are the frontliners. We should get the vaccine before anyone in the country."
