Not a very challenging morning: we need a Fachanleiter (roughly translated "facilitator") present whenever there are clients present but I'm really there for emergencies and training. As my current clients know what they're doing, I'm not very busy.

Could you not be the required Fachanleiter ?

I am the required Fachanleiter; that's why I was there for ten hours today; the regular staff aren't qualified to look after the clients.

Hope they're paying you for doing two jobs.

Why does it require aaFachanleiter , if you're already there though?

This is what you call a stag do.

I think we're both getting a bit lost here: I'm employed as a Fachanleiter, ("Qualified person") because I'm trained as an Occuparional therapist. We're needed because we have a lot of people with various issues and someone has to make a therapy plan with the clients, liaise with the Job Centre and other stuff. We also have to be present whenever there are clients working on the premises in case a client has a meltdown, panics, starts a fight, or something more serious.

We're also trained in basic management* because most people with this qualification end up managing a department of a shop or small company. Unfortunately, because of staffing problems, that means I'm working ten hours on Mondays and Tuesdays, but that's all overtime I can use to be with the family later...

*Thankfully in my case not accountancy or the company would be crumbling by now...

Lovely supper this evening. A salad of spinach, tomato, avocado and king prawns, with bread & butter and home made garlic mayonnaise, and then a small punnet of raspberries for afters.

It has just started raining here.

Never started here.

 

[Reynard]

Never started here.

You'll get wet tomorrow according to the forecast.

It stayed dry and I got my washing dried

I walked into town after work and bought a few books and CDs in a charity shop and also bought what I think is a beautiful painting.

I cycled 25 miles and I felt several big drops of rain but it never actually rained so I got home dry.

I was planning on hanging my painting but I cannot find the packet of picture hooks that I know I should have somewhere
