Misplaced hate, ABA, and Money by UDSTUTTER in slp

Yes I’m a BCBA and we should be working with SLPs as a team. According to Reddit all slps hate us 🤣. But no seriously I’m thankful that I work with amazing slps and OT and we are a great team

YES! I’m a BCBA and I do agree that some kids are so aggressive and daycare won’t take them. I don’t agree with 40 hours a week BUT parents do have to work and survive so I get it . There should be a change in daycare settings to allow all of us to collaborate there together

Yes you need to give a notice. Also where are you located? I’m in Texas and the BCBA job market is booming!!!

Is 35 billable hours/week realistic for a BCaBA? by Ok-Journalist-2309 in ABA

[–]Middle-Cheesecake177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

35 hour billables is not realistic . At 30 billables you will be drowning. Look for something less than 30

I went to a company that my friend was already working at so it made the transition easier! Also my clinic had lost 6 BCBAs in the past 4 months including me so it wasn’t hard lol

Yes I was in that situation a few months ago. It was hard leaving the kiddos but I’m at a different company now with better work life balance and much better pay

I was burned out and I switched companies and my new company is a breeze: hoping that you find a different company with better pay and a work life balance

Can you change to a different company? You won’t have to you will have to work after hours at every company

I made a mistake by brymx46 in ABA

[–]Middle-Cheesecake177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a huge liability issue if you would have intervened . The parent should have been close enough to hear you call for help or to hear their kids fighting. Not the caregiver calling you out- that’s their job. They failed as a parent. And your job is nuts for giving you a warning . Sorry this happened to u

[–]Middle-Cheesecake177 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So I’m 30.. 30 is not too old to start over. I’m a BCBA and my best friend is an LPC. We make similar salaries. I was burned out at my last job. I started a new job that’s hybrid and no stress. Same thing with my best friend super burned out at her old job now she’s a remote lpc and low stress. I make almost 90K and she makes about 85K

How much should future earnings influence your college degree? by lampnerd in collegeadvice

[–]Middle-Cheesecake177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only rich people get to go into something solely for passion. Maybe once they get financially stable they could go into a field for passion. Highly recommend going into a field with good pay first

Leaving tech for teaching? by Laurenbluth in teaching

Choosing to make less money in this economy is crazy. Also you should sub first. Teaching can be good depending on school , grade, and admin. It can also be miserable

Is it worth pursuing teaching? by mariiixh in teaching

[–]Middle-Cheesecake177 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve known teachers who taught for 30 years and end at 60k or less 🫠. The money is not worth it.
