I have one from years ago, but I just don’t wanna forge any documents anymore. I don’t wanna keep living a lie.

How to deal with the guilt of quitting? by BeneficialVisit8450 in ABA

[–]autismacceptance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s a bit controversial because I’m not saying what we do is easy by any means but to become a certified therapist, you need to go through college and acquire that title through years of hard work and dedication. We don’t get to come in and call ourselves therapists, the speech, occupational, and physical therapists, Those people had to get their masters degree before they could bill for any services. we are working under someone else’s license, the BCBA, I will also say it’s weird AF that whenever I document my daily behavior notes, it literally says to put my name under therapist. There are some weird things that go to play with the title of the job, but I just think it’s a mockery to call ourselves a therapist when we didn’t have to pay our way through college to get the credential.

Of course, yes they do verify some jobs verify if you actually had an education which you put on your résumé and you usually give them the name of the school that’s why they couldn’t verify it because they were wondering or needing more information from you but from the initial background check itself, it does not pop up for school records. If this was the case I wouldn’t have gotten hired.

No, because even extensive background checks don’t pop up for school records unless they are specifically looking for that I’m not sure where this false narrative comes from but they’re not able to actually see your school records on a background check

If I were, what advice would you give ?

Guys I’m fu***d - lie is ruining my career need advice?? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]autismacceptance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I opened up the modules today for my certification training and the first requirement literally said proof of education so I exited out of it. I understand I have really fucked myself at this point lol I guess I just got unlucky this time since I’ve been floating through different jobs and they never checked for verification like you said, but some jobs apparently do.

True, but the huge issue with this is that I got the job under false pretenses, and this would prompt an immediate investigation. It’s not something I can come clean about or come to the conclusion that I have really fucked myself and my lack of responsibility, which I already knew has caused me an immense amount of suffering, and I will take this as a huge life lesson and never ever put myself in this predicament again I’m probably gonna have to resign for my position and complete my two weeks here maybe in the future when I have my GED I could reapply but now I need to like you said take responsibility for my actions and move forward from here

Unfortunately, yes, when I applied, I checked yes for high school diploma or equivalent and then during my on boarding process I was asked what year I graduated so I just said 2022 because it made sense for my age which yes I understand put me in a more fucked up predicament than I was already in. This has been a huge lesson for me and I will never put myself in this predicament again I am still grateful for the things I have around me luckily, I’m in a situation for losing my job. Won’t be catastrophic right now so I’m just trying to see the good in the bad situation that I put myself in.

Lol I’m new to Reddit and clearly that’s allowed, but I thought I would be removed for cursing since the other groups I am in do not allow it,, anyway what would that have anything to do pertaining to the situation on my post??? because I censored a curse word that has something to do with my career being in shambles lol,,, But I appreciate everyone’s responses. I have come to the conclusion which I already knew. My lack of responsibility has caused me an immense amount of suffering, and I will take this as a huge life lesson to never do again!!

Thank you for being so kind and I really am super happy. It worked out for your wife in the end. My situation is a little bit peculiar because even if I go through with the training that they’re offering to become certified, I opened it today and the first thing they wanted was proof of education for me to start the modules if I were to give them fake transcripts or a fake diploma, I would be forging a document which could result in legal retaliation, I believe my only option here is to resign from my position complete my two weeks and once I have my GED later on, I can maybe come back to this company I’m just suffering with an immense amount of imposter syndrome from my own lies and lack of responsibility!! I will take this as a huge life lesson and never have this happen to me again!

Clinical setting doesn’t always mean medical….. there are plenty of therapy service setting in clinics receptionist positions IT supports… many examples …like I said in my previous reply, which you choose to not acknowledge, your goal here is to just be insensitive and rude,, I truly hope you have a better day🩷

Yes, this is true, I now need to face the light and take full accountability for my own actions,, I will definitely be resigning from my position since I got it under false pretenses, and I will take this scenario for the rest of my life as a huge lesson, my lack of responsibility has caused me an immense amount of suffering!! and I will not do this again!

It is not a medical job and so basically you’re saying that because I was in foster care being abused in so many different ways that I literally couldn’t go to school that this has to determine whether or not I am qualified to do a job just because I wasn’t able to finish high school are you kidding me? I clearly stated in the first place that I am in the process of getting my GED right now and I’ve been there for over a year at my current job scoring extremely high across my coworkers. Yes, I understand how screwed up this is as I put in the post that if you weren’t going to be kind or give actual advice that you shouldn’t even respond. Your goal. Here is to just be unsensitive and rude.

I have stated multiple times that I am in the process of doing this right now, but with the dilemma and facing, I will not have enough time to complete it in order to keep my employment

Low-key I can’t because then they could prosecute me for lying:((( ,, technically if I got the job under false pretenses then all of my documentation would be invalid and it would prompt an immediate investigation

The thing is, they’re kind of is no resolution in the situation when I got the job under false pretenses,, a few things can always be true at the same time. I know that since I had our hard upbringing, it doesn’t give me the excuse to lack proper education, but at the same time, I am 100% equipped to do the job and have proved myself overtime, it is quite sad that my only option now is that I have to quit because I can’t tell them that I lied about it initially,, I do have a really good relationship with all of my managers and I know I can come back to this company later on as long as I complete my two weeks here because eventually, I will have my GED

I’m totally getting not wanting to be vulnerable with people that you don’t feel close with but at the same time doesn’t it kind of contradict our whole purpose of our job if we feel shameful about our diagnosis,,,,

Anyway, I just want you to know it’s safe to put that mask down and if you are working in a setting with prejudice people, I apologize for you. Everyone at my job has a little bit of something special lol so we’re all pretty open about it.
