I've written about the new job where I basically work at this detention center and here's another update: I've found that it's definitely NOT my cup of tea. I thought it was just being homesick and needing space to not be there but, in my short time of working there, I've compiled a list of things that makes this environment very dysfunctional to work in. I understand that every job has its cons, I do, but you'd think there would be SOME type of structure in a place where kids are supposed to be making an attempt to better themselves. It's just not a place where my personality fits and I'm not ashamed of that. I thought maybe I was being "too soft" in the workplace but, honestly, the job has helped to toughen me up a bit and I appreciate that. However, granted, the "toughening up" came purely from annoyance because I was getting sick and tired of dealing with the bullshit atmosphere and I was just bothered that everything seemed to be so fucked up and disorganized. I'm pretty sure I'm making this my last week. I have a few interviews coming up so I'm hoping for the best and I have faith that it will all work out for me.
