Yesh that makes sense
What do you do?
Teacher?

Oh.

Basically but I’m the one they throw into really bad situations
Seems easyn't
Like I’m on the crisis team for my school
Ohhhh I see
I would have ended up with you as a kid ahahaha... hahaa... haha.....
I was not a good kid
Not always
So today we had an incident where I was alone (thankfully in a hallway so cameras caught the whole thing) and the rest of my team took like 20 mins to show up. A student was honestly beating the shit out of me and also hurting themselves so I performed a proper restraint
Wtf
And when I called in the nurse team and everything turns out the kid really beat the fuck out of himself and his shoulders were super bruised from hitting himself against railing
What'd you do that they beat you up??? Exist probably :/
Whattefuckeroni
Yeah he was having a mental health crisis. The kid was really scared and suicidal and so I don’t blame him
What the absolute fuck isthat shot
Shit*
Ohhhh
Okay
Thought it was someone that felt better or macho
That's sifferent though
Is he okay now?
Anyway because the kid had marks it had to be completely reviewed and investigated, but thankfully I was in the hallway and seen performing proper technique and they determined the bruises physically could not be from me and concluded it was from the railing
Phew, I understand why you were worried
Yeah we transported him to get mental health treatment
It's quite thr hectic situation
Hopefully he'll be fine
My job is to be the guy that holds down the fort until ems arrive so I was very well trained for the scenario and am used to it
Just the first time I’ve been completely hy myself because we aren’t supposed to
Wow, how lpng did you study?
With how many are you?
Usually 2-5
Our team has 7 but we never have all 7 at once
Damn many, I work with 2 groups of 2 (we split up)
Damn that's many
Do you like the job?
I’ve had over 15 professional developments and certifications on the job and a 2 year degree
Plus 1 year related work experience
Impressive
I do not
I don't think I can handle school again
Yes I very much like my job most of it is not situations like this
Usually I’m actually teaching or data collecting
Ohhh interesting
Building rapport w kids and teaching social and emotional learning
You seem quite motivated for it
Sweet!
That seems fulfilling. Is it?
Yes it is
I love it
Today was simply a stressful day
Great to hear, always glad to hear a person doing well
Yet you made it! Well done
Well good night
