I think that it defeats the whole purpose of LJ. I want to write so that people random and friends can

Re: writing about work. I think, in general, it's fine. I've never seen specific references to a client in either yours or mine. And I know if I write something like "I was deeply moved by a client today who was bedbound, but still felt engaged to the world" no one is going to know who that is. That could be any number of people I see.

Re: teachers. I have no thoughts really. All I have experience of is OT, where everyone is too nice to each other (like they're on drugs or something, but in a good way). But I guess we have more of a consultative role, so we do feel like we're getting attention. I'm glad to see you're posting about this stuff though.
