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?

My working day is divided in to segments of six minutes

School careers advisor.

@Doctorbear - thank you for your work - it's hard - no one has guessed mine but I am occasionally in meetings with your 'younger' colleagues.

GP.

@JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon SAHP with 3 kids under 5? 😆 that's a tricky one though actually

Bingo

Dominatrix?

Midwife

@Xtraincome totally correct. I’ve had plenty of people snatch stuff out of my hands as I’m working. I pretty much have a ‘following’ the whole time I’m at work.

Today I have pushed, pulled, added, and committed.

You are a probation practitioner/officer

@ghostyslovesheets school nurse? Child psychologist? pastoral worker?

Close but not with schools (well I work with schools all over the UK and beyond)

I work with people often in the news - and vilified for a) not doing their job or b) doing their job - generally hated by the Daily Fail

I also work with families, young offenders, gang members, and have had furniture thrown at me

I am a careers adviser though

I am a careers adviser - and a bit more, but with a specific group

Delivered triplets in my lunch break

Dentist.

Working adjacent to social services with looked after children?

ghostyslovesheets - are you with YOT?

@Serencwtch cab driver? Joking, midwife?

wow! I am guessing midwife or a very unfortunate M+S worker in the right place at the wrong time!

@JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon

Solicitor

@Doctorbear
You are a police officer, working with police officers..?

I spent the time between 4.00 and 4.30pm hiding under a desk with a colleague with the lights out and the doors barricaded.

Yes! I work for a Virtual School for Looked After Children - mainly yr10-11 supporting, 16-18 NEET and 18-25 support

I bloody LOVE my job but it is demanding and stressful - I work with any of our young people in care regardless of where they are placed - so travel - a lot!

Art teacher?
