40. Managed a group home for developmentally disabled adults...

The clients, as we called them, were fun. Higher functioning (in my home), very interesting personalities, awfully funny, great to work with.

Staff...most of them were dedicated, caring people. I only had to fire one because she was verbally abusing one of the clients.

Lots of flex time...I could make my own hours and got lots of time off when I put in more time.

Every day was something different.

I was sorry to see my job be phased out when the agency consolidated with another...
