I'm planning on doing that as well to hone my counseling skills.

I'm getting ready to hit the road this morning so I don't have time to go into any detail about the new job right now.  Suffice to say, it's been rough since Day One!

Thanks, Ami.

It's a bit complicated with this new job because I'm learning a lot of new stuff while attempting to navigate through negative "office politics" that is pre-existing before I got there.  From what I've observed, the negative "office politics" has gotten so bad that my new supervisor is about to throw in the towel after being on the job for only four months herself.  That does NOT bode well!

Hi Bones,
Here's hoping you can really detach from all the undercurrents, present always a calm and friendly attitude, and then get promoted into the supervisor's slot when she leaves!

Thanks, Hops.

I have to get certified first before I'll be eligible for that type of position.  It will be about two years before that is possible.

Dear Bones,
 I admire that you are "out in Life" and swimming upstream. It sounds like you are making your way- even with a little fear and uncertainty. You are still going forward.  You are inspiring me, Bones

For four days, I have to attend state-mandated D.O.C. training.  I've already have two of those days under my belt.

I'm trying to deal with this new job one day at a time, and yet, I still have my doubts about how stable this workplace really is.
