What do you do for a living?

I wouldn't either
(referring to both the above)
 
Most interesting and insightful thread of the mine field since... ever.
 
I spend all day counselling and educating people with various retardations and developmental disabilities. Which probably explains why I am so comfortable on internet messboards...

LOL! That would explain why we're so comfortable here!

I teach developmentally disabled children, as well. At least I do now! WOOT!
 
isn't that a very stressy profession? I mean, these children have so many problems and sometimes you simply can't help them , no matter how hard you try. Do you carry all these problems home with you or do you manage to switch off after work?
 
I used be a carer for three intellectual challenged people. The only stresses I suffer were at the hands of the other carers. If you simply accept that little to no headway is to be made and that that progress in and of itself will happen with glacier like slowness, it's simply and matter of learning the various behaviours of your clients and the triggers that will incite the negative ones. That and having no aversion to cleaning up all kinds of bodily fluids [and solids]. That said, it's not work anyone can do.
 
I figure everyone knows, I've stated what I do at least three times over the years.

(P.S. still doing the same thing)

However, I did have an interesting week. I added another professional "certification" as a "Lean Specialist" which basically means that my company can now spend MORE money on me to go become a "Master Lean Specialist". Hopefully it won't be any time soon, I dislike business travel, I was burned out on it years ago.

I'm also a Six Sigma "Black Belt". As well as a certified IPC (610) Trainer, and no you aren't getting my cert #. Those interested enough can figure it out from there.

:D
 
I AM PACKING IT ALL IN SOON
