I'm in class right now, and it's a litle depressing. We're talking about the termination phase - the time when you terminate the relationship that you have with your clients. This is also the last class before final exams, so it kind of coincides. I love this class so much. It was so much fun, even though I didn't learn much!
"That's a very important word that you hear in Social Work: closure - ending the relationship in a way that continues their path"
This is going to (hopefully) be my last year of school, and I am SO excited, yet terrified. I've heard the stories of people that graduate and can't find a job for MONTHS. God, terrify me more, would you? My cousin, who has a masters in CIS, worked at Microsoft for YEARS and they've recently had layoffs. Until he finds a job,he's working as a JANITOR at some design studio. Horrible, I tell you!
On the other hand, my position at work is up in the air. Freaks me out a little. They keep teasing me - I have my own cubicle, REALLY good pay for an intern (most are unpaid), and a fantastic position for a social worker (we're known to be next-to-broke in the degree business), yet when I ask them what's going to happen to me when I graduate they say, "Let's see how committed you are first!"...*ACK*!!!! Those words are like nails on a chalkboard to me...I don't like it at all.
I was so happy at work today because it was quiet. The loud peeps were on vacation, my boss was mostly out, and all my other coworkers wanted was to see the pictures of the wedding that I attended (the second loud one; the reason she's gone is because she's on her Costa Rican honeymoon....oh what I wouldn't do to go there someday...) I only had a couple of little projects to get done, and in between I got to email Eric. I'm a little worried though; I was trying to see if I could pick up the Mai-Hime DVD and since this morning he hasn't emailed me back - I guess my worry is a motherly thing, I hope he's alright.
Now in class we're talking about insurance, limits and sliding fees....it's a changing conversation. And NOW we're talking about why social workers should get their own therapists that aren't in the social work field so that you don't see them in the same conference that you're in.
I got this email today at work about Craigslist, and I think it's hilarious (SO TRUE) - so I will post it here:
HILARIOUS CRAIGSLIST EMAIL - MUST READ!!
For those readers unfamiliar with Craigslist, it’s the equivalent of an online flea market where you can find everything from your next crappy job to your next pain-in-the-ass girlfriend. While procrastinating and attempting to waste away an otherwise boring afternoon, I decided to take a peek at the Craigslist Men Seeking Women section. You know . . . to see what the competition is up to . . . that sort of thing. After nearly pissing in my new pants in a fit of laughter, I’ve come to the conclusion that the women of Craigslist are seriously lacking in viable options. This is not to say that I am the ultimate catch myself. Like everyone else in the world, I have my own set of overpriced baggage I’m lugging around (feel free to croll to the bottom to read about me), but I also have something called common sense. Unlike some of these fellas:
Wanna hang out with a tall guy today?
Hi, I’m tall. While that would be abundantly obvious to you within five seconds of meeting me, I thought I should just throw it out there just in case. After all, I’m a piss poor conversationalist, but I figure that as long as I’m tall, that should more than compensate for the awkward silences and my lack of knowledge on the most basic subject matters. I’m tall though, so drop me a line! You know what they say about tall guys!!
I love my Herpes
Herpes are my friend. And since I love my friends, I love my herpes. I picked them up after a drunken one-night stand in Vegas with a trannie hooker, but I’ll tell you that it was really my bitch of an ex-girlfriend who gave them to me after she cheated on me with her coworker. Because after all, that’s how everyone gets herpes. Did I mention that I love my herpes? Because if you want to date me, you should love them too. After all, soon enough they’ll be your friend as well. Hit me up!!
Handsome Married Man Seeking Married Woman
My marriage sucks. Your marriage sucks. Neither of us are getting any ass on the home front. So let’s get together, run up our credit card bills by shacking up at motels that charge by the hour, and have some goddamn fun!
Let's get high
Looking for a fellow stoner like myself who can’t function in society without smoking a few bowls first. After all, conversation is so much more interesting when you’re fucked up. It’ll almost surely make you forget the fact that I’m dumb as a rock and have zero ambition in life. 420 RULES!!!
Male looking fo r tight pusy m4w m4ww
Hi. Well, I can’t spell, but what does that matter? After all, I’m a male. And I’m looking fo r tight pusy. Not tight pussy. Tight pusy. Big difference. So yeah, drop me a line, but only if you have a tight pusy. I don’t want none of that loose pusy.

clean cut banker seeks college girl who could use some support...
I do really shitty with women my own age, so I thought I’d spice things up a bit and see if there are any broke college girls out there who are slutty enough to fuck my fat ass in exchange for some support. Notice I didn’t mention money, but that should be obvious enough because I’m a banker. And not just any banker. A clean-cut banker. Think of me as your friendly neighborhood ATM who wants to make the occasional deposit in your overnight repository.

It's been a long week at work and I really could use a drink
Yo. Wassup? I've been hungover all week (and it's only Tuesday) because I'm an alcoholic, have done absolutely jackshit at work, and am on the verge of being fired. Since my life sucks more than a crackhead trying to score some rock, I need to go out again tonight to get shitfaced and forget about how I am a miserable son-of-a-bitch. Hopefully you'll overlook this fact in your own drunken state and decide to pity-fuck me. That would rock.
TOMORROW is MY BIRTHDAY! ANY IDEAS???
MAN, MY CAPS LOCK IS STUCK. BUT THAT’S THE LEAST OF MY TROUBLES. YOU SEE, TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS ON WHAT TO DO FOR MY BIRTHDAY??? I THOUGHT ABOUT MAYBE GETTING A BIRTHDAY CAKE, BUT THAT SEEMS SO SECOND GRADE. I DON’T HAVE ANY FRIENDS, SO I FIGURED I’D POST HERE AND SEE IF ANYONE WOULD MAYBE WANT TO HANG OUT WITH ME ON MY BDAY. BUT ONLY IF YOU HAVE AN IDEA ON WHAT TO DO. GOD IT’S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I’VE BEEN WITH A CHICK.
Come over to my place for wine and a movie
Not only I am too cheap to buy drinks at a bar, but I'm also really creepy and have zero social skills. If I did, I would realize that no one in their right mind would come to my place sight unseen. Because they sure as hell wouldn't if they did see me. P.S. Did I mention the wine? It's Gallo. And perhaps you've heard of the movie I rented... it's called American Psycho.
White dude for ASIAN chicks only. . . .
Hi! White chicks don’t like me. I don’t know why. So I took the advice of a buddy who did one of those mail-order things and now I’m looking for Asian chicks. Let me make that really clear. ASIAN. That’s it. No one else. If you aren’t Asian, and you aren’t willing to cook and clean for me and have sex with me all the time, then forget it. I’m a white dude after all. You should be grateful to just be in my company.
And that’s only a small sampling.
I just did a roleplay as a social worker infront of the class and it turned out horribly. I was completely avoiding the termination phase and the teacher put up this HUGE piece of paper saying "You're avoiding termination, why?" Isn't it obvious? I don't want this to end!
