Just being nosey really, I just got a new job and I'm thrilled. I was going nowhere in life for a long time, was at a dead end in many respects, but I finally have a loving partner, my children are happy and I've just got a job at a bank Grin what is your job?

Yet another breadcrumbs thread. I don't know why Mumsnet allow this. Don't people understand how doxxing works? Nobody gets their identity revealed from a single thread, it's a trail of breadcrumbs they leave here and there. Your actual career is a pretty big fucking piece of the puzzle.

Support worker in a residential children's home for children with disabilities. Work with a great team, no day is the same & the job plays to my strengths, but the young people can take every ounce of everything you have to give & then wring you out some more.

I have DSs aged 31,30, 28 & 25.

I've been doing it 4 years. Thank goodness Covid lockdowns are behind us, that was a baptism of fire! I was a teacher previously.

Thank you. My rates are still pretty low as I’ve only just become certified…and I LOVE what I do. Sometimes I can find an answer really quickly, it all depends on how complex the issue is. I recently happily reunited a family , in a couple of days, who had been looking for each other for 50 years.
