This thread is awesome.
I'm a support worker for people with learning difficulties.
Typical shift is to get up at 7.30am and be on the bus by 8am. I'll get there by 8.15 or so and grab a coffee at the coffee shop. I get to the house, have a cup of tea and chat until 9am when the district nurse comes and handles the insulin. Then we make some breakfast, make sure the user takes their medication. Then it's some house cleaning and general domestic stuff, then some lunch and some more medication. Then we go to the local charity shop where one user works part time, do the two hour shift. Then it's home for another cup of tea and some exercises, have a chat, perhaps go out for a walk or to visit the community centre, then dinner, more medication and that's it. I like my job
