*groan* I'm tired of protecting these because I have friends who don't have blogs who read this, so screw it- it might be a tad cryptic, but if you want to know more, just ask.
A) My agency is full of drama! director is irresponsibe, others are sneaky... and it is not doing what I was told they did... or what they advertise as being available for... I'm supposed to get a well-rounded experience... instead I'm a cube monkey and sit and take intakes all day- no case management- just taking the intakes, telling people to bring me verifications of income and expenses and then determine if we give them money or not... As the board president said to me yesterday, "instead of teaching them how to fish, we're just handing out measly fish sandwiches" and i keep getting the clients from hell... and i'm tired of getting threatened
AND...
B) The drama with the roommate and the murder case doesn't end. EVER. The man they'd held as material witness and were thinking of charging is now out and free in exchange for testimony against the other man. A friend of the man who's been charged and is in jail has been calling her the past couple days wanting to come over and talk and saying he thinks he remembers where she lives... BUT, she didn't think to tell the police until a couple of us sat in there and made her... likewise, there's the online directory and since the incident with the guys around her car, I've been tellign her to get her information taken off... I sat over her shoulder and watched her do it tonight but she seemed so reluctant about it... And everytime one of us turns around, we're hearing a slightly different story from her... We're starting to think that she keeps being stupid because she's desperate for attention... But when you're considered a witness in a murder trial coming up in month that's connected with some major drugs and other stuff, you don't take chances for the sake of attention- people want to keep you quiet or keep you hidden somewhere or scare you into changing your story- which in contradicting previous statements would get her testimony thrown out... If she was a client, I could deal with it all... but I can't live with it anymore... we have to be her mom- for our own safety, well being and sanity... and I wish that were an exagerration but its not... sadly
*curled up in a ball, rocking in the corner* Only 3 months of my placement and living with her to go... 3 months until graduation...
