The County I Live In Is Getting Too Small!

So a building that I frequent a lot in my work (county complex) now contains OSS 25.  No it is not the jail, although I would have no surprises about YSS19 heading to the clink.  OSS, the oldest,  was always the best of the 3 ferrals.  He accepted me more than the younger two.  I always had the most hope for OSS although estranged.

Anyway OSS got some sort of social work job at my county's ARC which is kind of surprising since he just barely passed high school and has no college.  I guess the labor shortage is really hitting home.  

I have no doubt that the Girhippo got him in because she is a career social worker when she wasn't doing the stay in bed mom thing.

Well at least it seems to be a step up.

Some of the most messed up people I know are in social work. I think its a "Doctor, heal thyself" sort of thing.

He may be working at the ARC, but that doesn't mean he's in social work. He has a high school diploma. He's some type of client aide. Don't inflate his job in your head.

The good news is that he is actually working.
