sick days

So, I took three sick days this week. I’ve not been feeling well.

This weekend, I spent with my family and went to a Sunday church for the first time this year. I missed that so much.

This is mostly because I hate my job with a passion. I would probably love it if not for the lack of direction and complete chaos of the organization. I’ll be putting in my two weeks soon.

Oh yeah, and the physical danger. While I do get help when residents get violent, it sometimes doesn’t come until the situation is past its most vital point. In my personal opinion, there should ALWAYS be more than one staff member with the residents at ALL times. Also, there are too many situations in which residents and other staff can put other staff at risk of losing their job.

So, if any of my friends out there have leads on job openings ANYWHERE doing pretty much ANYTHING other than direct care, let me know. I may want to try the residential treatment thing again, but I need a change for now.

Got lots to talk about. I’ll chat more later.

But I gotta pack up to go Steph’s. I have to work tomorrow.

you could sign up at a temp agency like I’m doing. It’s boring work, but the most dangerous thing I encounter is a staple.
