Mar. 17th, 2006 09:19 pmTonight it was breakfast tacos, with sour cream and salsa verde. Tastiness.
Work went on, as it does. It was not so bad today. I think I've done about all I can for the trainee. She probably won't make the cut. Her hands shake all through every single call. I don't think she's able to handle the emotional content and that's why she's making the mistakes.
A year ago, I might have said I couldn't handle it. I don't know, things change. I hear some fucked up stuff, no doubt. But I can process that, most of the time. Some things get under my skin. The woman who put her gay teenage child in a mental hospital and now says she doesn't want him home, yeah. The woman who didn't report the sexual abuse of her child because her husband told her not to, yeah. That shit makes me so angry I could punch holes. But it goes, and these cases pass through. I don't follow them all the way to the end. I don't have to look these people in the eye.
I also don't get the death threats, so I suppose that's easier. The head honchos sent out an email about worker safety and it is a joke. Just, ugh. It's so nonspecific as to be useless.
