About Me

Hi, my name is Michelle. I'm a single mother to Andrew (10) and Ashelyn (6). I completed college in December of 2007 obtaining a degree in Chemical Dependency Counseling. I'm currently in a very new relationship with a wonderful man. My goal is to go back to college and earn my Bachelor's in Social Work; possibly my Master's. I would also love to get my CASAC (credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor) someday. I'm discovering a new happiness in my life and the only thing I'm waiting for is to find a job so I can continue my career. I love my field of work and enjoy every minute of it. The rest you can find on my "complete profile". Any questions, feel free to ask :-)

I'm feeling...

Sunday

Holy Crap! I worked a weekend shift where nothing major happened! Geez! It's about time. This was my 5th weekend shift. My first weekend shift went smooth. My 2nd weekend shift, some of the girls trashed the living room, my 3rd weekend shift 3 girls went AWOL right as I was about to leave (there was something else that happened too, but that isn't appropriate for discussion here), my 4th weekend shift, someone trashed someone else's room. This was my 5th and it was pretty uneventful. I got some attitude from some of the girls and when I gave them all a message from my boss, whom I had JUST got off the phone with, one of the girls gave me SUPER attitude. She refused to comply with what I told her, even after I told her that the Program Director was actually the one that was telling her to do it...she was just having me pass the message. So, when she downright refused to do what I asked, I told her that when I got done with room check slips that she'd be receiving consequences and I went upstairs to check the girls' rooms. She said sarcastically, "Well, I don't care". So, all said and done, I'm back down in the staff office and I asked I told the other staff how much that girl dislikes me and apparently, after I went upstairs, she said she hated me. Ahhhhhhh...well, ya know what...GOOD...cause one of my bosses said if they hate ya,you're doing your job...but here's the thing, she's sweet as pie when she wants something from me. I know...normal, but hey...at least I know I'm doing a good job! Ha!
