I completely agree with you. I also felt the greatest challenge I will face will being able to receive sufficient funding. I found it interesting how you have witnessed policies, regarding funding, change without your knowledge. I'm sure it happens more often than we are aware of. I as well hope to be in a position that allows me to make changes to better serve my clients.…
Clarence, I agree with you completely that older generations follow the motto “a hard day’s work for an honest day’s pay”. I work with a few older employees and they work 5x harder than some of the younger employees I work with. I also received a 35 on my EI test which I was not surprised of either. I have a very high work ethic and have very little time for play in my job. I do need to learn to put myself in others shoes; sometimes this is very hard for me to do.…
I have always been interested in learning and using new ideas. Throughout my life, I have invariably drawn from my life experiences, newly learned ideas and my continuing education to help problem-solve sensibly and realistically allowing me to move forward or help others reach their goals. Although I have no formal teaching experience, in my past work and involvement in organized sports, I have repeatedly used the Progressive philosophy. When dealing with 13 & 14 year olds many situations arise such as bullying, personality clashes or simply not understanding a drill or play. I deal with these situations by asking questions to stimulate a discussion, allowing them to draw on past experiences; positive or negative, consequently allowing them to come up with a solution or grasp the knowledge they are seeking.…

My response to this selection is that Hornak made right decision, even though it took her long time to realize, but it would be hard for me If I were to change my career. It would be hard for me because I know I spent a lot time to study and it costs me a lot too. But I personally believe that we all need money, but I would also want to pick the major that I would enjoy in and which would make me proud. For instance, I like to help others…
In the Human Services field I am very passionate about working with people in the deaf culture. I am passionate about working with this population because I know American Sign Language and I feel a connection to the community. Learning ASL took a long time and allowed me to be engaged in many events in the deaf community. I believe people in this population are not given nearly as much attention or opportunities as they should be. The lack of equal access to education, jobs, and basic interactions that hearing people take for granted is not fair and puts this population at a disadvantage therefore making it important for people to want to work with this group of people.…

I had three things. A job at ITS, I was vice-president of the Association of Latin American Students(ALAS), and my girlfriend of two years was finally going to come to Point Loma. I was on top of the world. Student System/Network Administrator. The job in ITS was the highest position and paying job that a student can obtain on campus.…
The idea of being told that I had to work for the first time made me want to eat glass; but could it possibly have turned out for the better? In England, when you reach 10th grade you participate in a nationally accepted program called 'Work Experience'. ' Work Experience' is when you work just like you would if you were legally an adult except with this program it only lasts a week. After 2 weeks of tireless searching I landed a job at Ariya Capital; an experienced developer and investor in clean energy and infrastructure projects throughout sub-Saharan Africa. It was actually much more advanced than any job I ever thought of getting.…
At this culmination stage, I have mixed feelings toward leaving my placement site. I am looking forward to the future and starting my career in human rehabilitation services, but also feel sad to leave the Mercy Centre and the clients. It will also be difficult to say goodbye to the staff, as I have developed close relationships with them. They were extremely welcoming when I first entered the Mercy Centre and learned so much from them about working with this population and about creating a positive work environment. During our breaks and lunchtime, we have become friendly and it is hard to not see these people anymore.…
“You need a job.” “Do something productive.” “Why are you so lazy?” “ I’m sick of seeing you sit around all day,” nagged my mother. It was summer of eighth grade and I would be transitioning into high school in a couple months.…
As I was reading the online lecture and the text book I found this chapter very informative because the materials I red happens to my daily life activities and know I look things differently since I started this class am able to think critically and more observant. As a Human service professional I will be working with clients on daily basis and through asking more information about the problem they need guidance with I will be finding gaining more knowledge. I can relate this by remembering that when my great grandfather went to be with the lord years ago I was a young girl and I actually didn’t know exactly what happened but my family told me he took his life. Now that am in this career path I think about my grandfather case and I want to…
I am definately not the same person I was a year ago. I have learned to appreciate many more aspects of life, I have learned to prioritize better. What seemed important to me a year ago no longer has the same influence. One thing though that has remain unbothered are my morals. My values, goals, and interests have not changed.…
