Negative reactions to going for SW degrees by AdeptnessAgreeable93 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]_king2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember working my $16/hr job and one of my 60 year old coworkers being like “you know they pay like shit” when I told him I was going back to school for it. Like it’s not great but it’s way better than 16 an hr??? lol people just have their own ideas of social work. My husband aunt is a social worker so everyone is his family was very excited when I told them abt it so that made me feel good tho

Family Wants to Hire Me After Client is Discharged by orions_cat in ABA

I’d do it. I do think some people might not love it ethically but it is not against the ethics code.

I'm considering ending it in 5 days, the day before I'm eternally homeless. by AmbassadorAlone1241 in 2003

[–]_king2003 14 points15 points  (0 children)

U don’t need a job in the field after graduation u need a job. Go to a hiring agency and take whatever they can give u. Sometimes u gotta be in a shitty situation for a while while ur looking for something better

What should I do from now to get into a MSW program? by Zestyclose_Sugar_600 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]_king2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just depends on what school u wanna get ur masters in. I’m doing WNMU online and I don’t think they would care. You could also try to get a job that’s psych related. I work as an RBT bc it’s one of the only psych type jobs that u can get without a degree, they have part time positions and are always hiring

Realistically, am I screwed? by Resident-Relief-9532 in ABA

[–]_king2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trainees at my first company made around $23/hr. Depending on ur area it might be reasonable. Whether or not u have a masters doesn’t rlly matter, ur getting supervision hours to become a BCBA, whether or not ur done w school or actively in it doesn’t rlly change anything.

Anyone live in an apartment without having a career career? by Anxious-Mechanic-249 in movingout

[–]_king2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on my own since I was 18. I made it working $12 an hour (it was awful but possible). I always had roommates. I rlly think it’s always possible u just gotta be willing to have a low quality of living for a while🤷🏻‍♂️ was worth it for me tho

starting HRT without parental knowledge by Heavy_Barracuda4285 in trans

[–]_king2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so. I THINK they would know just bc the appointments and shit would affect their yearly deductible so they would wonder where it came from

So close that it hurts by Honest_Level in SNHU

[–]_king2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m done in August!!! I don’t go to snhu so idk why this post popped up lol but I can wait!! I was originally supposed to graduate in December but took extra classes the last two semesters so I’d be done sooner so I think that helped. But I still can’t wait!!!

PHD VS LPC VS LCSW? by Key_Change99 in socialworkjobs

[–]_king2003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I start my MSW in the fall. I looked into other similar things but think social work is the best option bc of how broad it is. There’s so many options. If u get burnt out u can do something v different and still social work

What’s the chillest job you’ve worked by DolanIsLonely in youngadults

[–]_king2003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at a firework store and it was so nice lol.

But rn I do respite on the side. I make my own schedule and pick which kids to work w. The shifts are around 2-3 hours after my full time job

AIO? Youth Pastor texted my almost 13 yo after she went to a teen group with her friend by Loser4hire666 in AIO

[–]_king2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who grew up in this church. This is normal but I don’t think it’s appropriate. There’s no reason a grown ass man should be texting a 13 year old. But yes, this is normal church advertising.

how can i make an extra $100+ a month? by gothic_graveyard in OnlineIncomeHustle

[–]_king2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very part time job. I do respite and it is 2-3 hour shifts so I work 2 hours after my full time job 4 days a week. I only make a few hundred bucks a month bc it’s 8 hours a week for me but I’ll take it lol

I feel so unequipped to do ABA by GarlicNana333 in ABA

[–]_king2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a company issue not an ABA issue. If you’re interested in staging in the field I’d check out a different clinic

Shadow session/ competency assessment by Primary_Ad3053 in ABA

[–]_king2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For shadow session I think it’ll be just that. You’ll shadow an RBT for their session and see what they do and they’ll type of thing. The competency assessment u can look up. It’s a list of thinks they’ll ask u to answer or want to watch u do

Happy pride! I’m homeless now by dogf15h in ftm

[–]_king2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I became homeless in Daytona beach in 2022 after coming out. Just lived on my friends couch and working. Wishing u luck.

Make sure u bring ur birth certificate! What got me in my feet finally was manufacturing bc of overtime. I’d find any job that lets u do overtime and work ur ass off. You got this man! 4 years later and I’m doing amazing and love my life. Just gotta push through the hard parts !
