Started my "job training" today


I was really excited to goto my training which will last until Friday. Of course something usually goes wrong and sure enough I woke up the sickest I've been in over a year. I still made it through the first day (4 hours). I was supprised when I showed up because the other 2 people who got the job were alot older then me, probably in their mid 40's-50's. Which actually was kinda cool that the people at Youth Services picked me out of all the younger people that applied for the job (apparently their was alot). We did some paperwork for the first hour and a half then headed over to the house where the homeless kids will be staying. We went over the layout of the house and talked about what needs to be done everynight and then talked alittle about some of the kids who would be staying there. Thursday we will be doing our first overnight stay, It will be the 3 of us and our supervisor the administrative director of the house. There wont be any kids moving in until the 1st of Oct but we're doing it to get to know eachother better and do some senareos.

Overall it was ALOT of info to take in on the first day but we'll review it over the next 3 days. Im really excited to start working and help people out and take on all the responsibilites, and of course not to have to wash dishes again for a job. :)

Thanks for sharing your successes. I remember my first non-kitchen job, it was like heaven. :)



Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

Im doing my first overnight stay right now.Its 5AM and im so fucking tired. I have 3 hours to go then I can go home and goto bed for 7 hours then its back to my other job which I will only be working until Sunday then im done. There are no kids at the house now but come Tuesday (my first real day of work) their will be 3 kids. We discussed their cases tonight so we know what we're dealing with and their current situation. I'm really excited to start working with the youth and help them get their lives on track. I have alot of life experience and good life skills to offer them. It will be nice to make a positive change in their lives.

Oh, in about 2 or 3 weeks you're gonna' run your hands under hot water and its gonna' burn. That's a good thing.
