Tell me where you work without telling me where you work...

[hooplawoopla]

Hoping to cheer myself up as had a crap week!

So I'll start...

This week so far I got called a fing c**t, had a chair thrown at me, had a book thrown at me and been spat at.

Any guesses what I do for a living?

I get people showing me random bits of metal and asking me what they are and if we sell them, and also asking for advice on plumbing, electrical and gas things, even though I'm not qualified to answer on any of those things, (but people in those fields are our main customer base.)

TA. Close enough!

@Lannielou I bet you do - I'm guessing it's the verity, the feeling of making a difference and a bit of autonomy

Veterinary nurse?

@BlueberryMuffinTops

Yes. But also very rewarding at times too. A very mixed bag!

No, sorry.

I change nappies, wipe tears, do first aid, play, teach & intervene

@ghostyslovesheets, not quite, but allong the right lines

Made things look nice again and again until everyone agrees the thing looks nice. Repeat.

@eurochick

Barrister.

I work with a handset and printer. People like me and follow me.

Kids make noises at me. Sometimes lots of kids together. Sometimes on their own.

@edissa @autienotnaughty @Piglet89 you're all pretty close - I'm a risk manager. A job where if you do it competently, nobody will ever know 🤣

Are you an Elections Officer?

SAL Therapist?

Today I have met with two rapists and two people who have committed violent offences. I suspect that at least one of those was under the influence of drugs, one under the influence of alcohol and one is an active drug dealer. I have no ability to prove any of this but I will be held responsible if shit hits the fan.
I have tried to source accommodation for one of them and referred for mental health support for another. Neither of those will be available although with the cold weather my rough sleeper will be given somewhere to sleep for the next few nights (in a communal lounge at a hostel).

@ghostyslovesheets nope. Louder noises.

You're a personal assistant?

Probation? or housing?

I am. I do Federal and Provincial work. My Federal riding is bigger than England!

@houselikeashed Musical instrument teacher.

@GenerousGardener are you in grocery retail and have a yellow label maker for discounts? People would follow you like a zombie herd!

Bounce and rhyme person? Library staff?

Yep! The former!

@haXXor yes! Hopefully the noises get better over time!
