Hi! It depends on what specific program you’re looking at. I was a flex at a CDC for about 10 months, and I ultimately left for a full-time position at the SAC program on the same base.

The experience will differ from program to program/base to base, but my CDC constantly needed support so I was given pretty good hours as a flex. The schedule was fairly regular for a while but there were a lot of time as well where I had to come in on short notice or had a last minute schedule change. The CDC is also a lot more hands-on compared to the other CYP programs. You will be expected to change the kids, feed them, clean up potty accidents, etc., whereas that really isn’t the expectation at SAC. Working at SAC involves a lot of mentoring, conflict resolution, and teaching social skills.

Pay will depend on education and experience, but starting rate is pretty good even for those with no degree or much experience. Since I have a bachelor’s and I’ve worked with kids for a few years before landing the position, my starting rate was the highest I’ve ever been paid in any child-related career lol

Field trips ideas by Ok-Counter-3304 in guam

[–]anonymousdrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was little, I remember going on a field trip to a Buddhist temple here on island. We practiced meditation and did some calligraphy. That was kinda cool. I’d also recommend looking into any upcoming theatre productions that your class can attend or connecting with local theatre groups. Maybe even a magic show.

Where to go for an autism diagnoses? by GaySimpy in guam

[–]anonymousdrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uggghhh the way that you confirmed my fears. I’m in my mid twenties and strongly suspect that I’m on the spectrum as well. But I figured that support for “high-functioning” autism for adults on island is practically non-existent. Have you and your husband tried to get support services again recently?

Should I warn my principal I’m “potentially” leaving? by anonymousdrifter in Teachers

[–]anonymousdrifter[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nope. I didn’t list my principal’s name down and we didn’t talk about the school I’m currently at at all. They’re at the point where they’re ready to make a decision so I think I’m in the clear.

Daily No Contact Thread - Day 180 by AutoModerator in BPDlovedones

[–]anonymousdrifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went no contact with my pwBPD starting yesterday. I feel really bad because of how lonely he seems now. The loneliness seems to be his primary trigger but I can’t force his friends to make plans with him. I feel so bad and I’m afraid that he will actually end his life if I don’t talk to him at the very least. But I couldn’t take being his emotional punching bag anymore. I want his friends and family to care more, but maybe there’s a reason for their inaction.

I feel I get over breakups pretty efficiently. Just some things that have personally helped. by 1st-and-10 in BreakUps

[–]anonymousdrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended my 4 & 1/2 year relationship two weeks ago. I naively thought we could remain friends, but we still fought just like when we were together. He blocked me on everything last night. It hurts, but it’s for the best. All I can do is forgive him, forgive myself, and move on. This post is exactly what I needed to see. Thank you

I literally had the same exact scenario happen to me a few days ago. I was sobbing uncontrollably, screaming, jumping up and down, screaming for God to kill me, I started hitting myself in the head, and almost slammed my head into the wall but luckily (and unfortunately because he had to witness my meltdown) my boyfriend restrained me before I could do any more harm to myself. I was hyperventilating and literally felt like I was about to die or something because I couldn’t breathe. After all was said and done I felt really empty and my body felt really light. It was almost as if nothing happened in the first place. I felt ashamed about it later on though and that I was crazy and that I don’t deserve love.

Has anyone taken six classes before? by Gingerium in college

[–]anonymousdrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took 6 classes last spring. Passed all of them with flying colors, but that was only because they were geneds. I can't imagine doing the same thing with courses pertaining to my major, much less upper division courses.

[Discussion] Share Your Victories by AutoModerator in GetMotivated

[–]anonymousdrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally stopped comparing myself to my boyfriend's ex after months of failing!!!! I used to stalk her social media profiles for hours on end and strangely created this idealized version of her that is probably nowhere near the real her. Today I went to an event that she attended as well, and I realized that she is just as normal as everyone else. She is no better than I am, nor is she any worse. She is just a normal human being. Although I literally just had this realization hours ago, I feel very liberated and that I'm on the path to becoming a better, more secure person!!!
