First post from the new job!!!

Hello all. Well today was my first day at my new job and all is going very well. I am actually writing this from my computer at work in my own office. :) good times. I can say that you all better get ready to have daily updates again just like when i worked at the Rape Crisis Center. :) Let me tell you all a bit about the job. Mainly, I will be doing individual therapy with kids from the ages of 7-17 who are dealing with many types of problems from anger management to suicide to self esteem problems and school problems, etc. I have my own office, my own pager, my own laptop, and a hefty set of keys. Now to you that dont work in the social service field, these are all major things. No one is ever guaranteed anything, not even an office in the social service area. Anyway, I will be doing therapy at 3 clubs in the Fort Worth area. So, I will not have much driving especially compared to my previous jobs. it is basically a 9-6 job. I do paperwork and prepare for sessions and attend meetings and such from 9-2 and from 2-6, i conduct therapy sessions with the kids. the dress is way causal, jeans and khakis and stuff since we are working with kids. also, anytime i dont want to work or dont have anything to do, i get to hang out with the kids in the club and play pool or video games or help with homework or just chat it up. I am really excited about this job, i think it is the perfect fit for me right now.

Well, i just got a call to my personal phone line from my boss's secretary letting me know that we get to leave at 5:30 today. so, i guess that means I am on my way out the door. YEAH for this job!!
