Aah, the irony!
May. 23rd, 2004 09:52 pmI have worked as an ongoing worker for Children's Services since September of last year. I have had the high privilege and the distinct honor of never having to remove a child on my caseload in my tenure. I have never been given custody of a child at court. I have never had to do a placement. This is, quite simply, an amazing thing. (Well, I had to switch someone's placement once, but that hardly counts.)
This is my last week of work at Children's Services. Tomorrow is my last Monday at Children's Services. And I have to go to court. And I am going to get custody of a 17-year-old JD. And I will have to do a placement.And I came down with a likely-stress-induced cold today and feel like ass, did I mention that?
*snaps fingers* Damn. I had a nearly impeccable record.

It's time for me to pay for my LJ account just so I can have a silly Les Misérables icon.
It rained on my wedding day. We got over it. Don't think of it as a blemish on your record, think of it as additional experience that you can take with you to a new job. Not only are you good at staying out of court, but when it's absolutely necessary (because some people need more drastic kicks in their pants to be helped), you can handle that, too.
