Jeanette Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Best job I've ever had, really worthwhile. Only been doing it proper for 3 weeks after doing a bit of it on the side from my permanent post for 2 years. The bit on the side became the full-time job at the start of the month and it's starting to scare me how everything seems to be falling into my lap lately. Would recommend support work to anyone.Excellent!! Maybe one day you could take it a little further and consider social work (but obviously that would depend on if you wanted to study (again?))... I sound like some sort of recruitment officer!! Haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one day you could take it a little further and consider social work (but obviously that would depend on if you wanted to study (again?))... Christ no, last time I was at university it was full of horrible students. Hate those things.It's been decreed by the powers-that-be that I have to start SVQ Level 3 in Working With Offending Behaviour. Been assured I'll find it easy enough but it's still a bore after coing a Masters 7 years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right in thinking that? Or perhaps that's only been within children and families for just now and they'll get round to everyone else eventually!! I'm sure the SVQ will be a piece of cake and incredibly interesting.One day I might venture into the world of working with offenders/ex-offenders, but just now I'm sticking with the kids! Ha. I wrote my dissertation on youth crime, so maybe I'll combine the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 God, I know. Or when it gets given a green squiggle despite the suggestion it gives as a substitute is just silly and wrong. Or when it just says "Fragment" which really means that Bill Gates thinks your sentence is too short, and you must lengthen it, you illiterate nonce! Hate.I too, also hate people who spend too long at cash machines. Especially when you get DOUBLECARDED. Oh yes. They withdraw a couple of tens from one bank account. Then OHHH SHIT! This chump has two accounts, so they withdraw another amount from their second account, thrusting themselves upon the cusp of insufferable human inconvenience. I know I'm having one of those terrible days when I get stuck beind someone either a) printing off 12 pages of bank statement, or b) using a cash machine to top up their phone. Ugh!The recent school holidays made me realise how much I hate teenagers, and the ones that dick about on top of the St Nicks Centre, with their male make up, and their dry humping.

His Majesty Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Bands that think they are something special because they have or will play some gigs in London or anywhere in England. Bands that say they are touring, but this tour consists of a few gigs spread over 3 or 4 months, most of which take place in Aberdeen.

waltz Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 That TV show Skins and everyone in it. Bunch of ridiculous cartoon cunts who live nothing like anyone. Real teenagers (should) live in confusion and shame, there's no ex-sitcom stars helping us along and it's all shit and awkward.I hate it and everything associated with it. And that shrew-faced bitch Effy can fuck off staring at me and grinning like an idiot whenever I check my myspace. But it's my own fault for having a myspace. Still. Raah.

Raah.say it brother. that show gets on my wick. the first series was bearable, but i saw maybe 10 minutes of this newest one, and srsly, it's epitomises everything that is wrong with an entire generation of people. it seems to combine the writing skills of a 17 year old media student and a bunch of 30/40 somethings writing about how they wished their teenage years were really like, completely based around several pop culture references each episode. thing is...most teenagers NEVER experience anything remotely close to what happens in these shows. i spent my time playing burnout on the game cube and watching terrible Saturday television. this program only alienates those perhaps more anxious/paranoid/let out feel even more alone. adam and joe did a great piece about it here; brilliant.

I wrote my dissertation on youth crime, so maybe I'll combine the two.Spot on missus, everyone in this line of work has to be on the register eventually so we don't upset the Care Commission. This will be the second bloody SVQ I've done since graduating. Had to do Level 2 Care when I worked in residential care before joining Sacro. The last SVQ was mind-numbingly boring but a total dawdle and I expect more of the same.Again, it's a great job to get into. Sacro also have Youth Justice and Street Mediation as well as Criminal Justice so you'd have a field day if you joined our happy ship...

Stichman Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Picture this; you're sitting in your living room, maybe having a few beers. It's late. Your flat mate/partner stands up, yawns and says "I'm away to bed". You look up and say "see you tomorrow". As you do.THEN, he/she/it says, in a hugely irritating voice, "...don't you mean today?" This is usually combined with a knowing wink, or a nod towards the clock.NO, I DO NOT MEAN TODAY. I DON'T CARE IF IT'S AFTER MIDNIGHT, IT'S STILL TODAY. TODAY IS NOT TOMORROW. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEANT.
