The 4 year + 1 month ITCH
I am on this current job for 4 years 1 month+++.... Now, the ITCh has kicked in. I am feeling restless now.... maybe it's mid-life....maybe I am thinking more realistically now....maybe....
A salesperson commented that social services pays= half voluntary work. I think he makes sense. Probably if I were to move to another setting, I will sure get a MUCH HIGHER pay than what I am getting now.....Imagine, when I moved into this job from a parachurch organization, I took a pay cut.
BUT, I need the AWS as well as the bonus (if any). So.....I think I know where I stand now.....on the fence.....I have to run the men's and women's groups*** at the end of the year.
Don't get me wrong. I am not half-hearted about my work. My passion of helping people is still alive. I am just tired of some crappy things....
I need a BREAK or JOB CHANGE!

There are some transitions....we had 1 staff who came and go in two days. The latest addition is Sabrina, social worker. Lily's left for SAF Counselling Centre, the rest are still here.
Good to hear that you like to work with kids. Good potential in Singapore. Keep up the good job!
