Worst: part of an insulation company. The guys would come in on Friday and argue about their pay checks. Was it 3 or 4 cents per square foot they were supposed to be paid and how many feet they blew. He was paying 22% for unemployment insurance. Lasted 3 weeks - I am not the type who is going to yell at my boss.

Best where I am now. Reply to this

My subjects are english and drama but im a supply teacher atm. Yes teenagers are difficult but if you show them you care, set boundaries and be consistent with your discipline they generally turn out well! I think the parents are the most influential ones in a teenagers life. I'm sure you'll manage great. Reply to this

BEST: My current job, A Tattoo apprentice. I'm learning how to do exactly what i've always wanted to do while taking my art that bit further and after a while it involves a bit of travelling.. it's already taken me down to brighton for the tattoo convention and abit up north.. hopefully one day it'll take me out of the country so i can learn all about original tattooing and how it differed it different countries and the art behind it.

WORST: About 2 years ago i was working in a garage in chessington, i love my cars so the job was pretty good, but it was the boss we had a problem with he never rarely showed up and if he did it was hours late, lost the garage loads of money and just generally treated us like shite.. wasnt a good experiance but wasnt my last garage to work in lol Reply to this

My sister used to be a social worker before she was a teacher. One of the jobs she had as a social worker was in a home for teenage delinquints. That is likely how she became so good with teens.

I'm sure you'll manage great.


Thanks for the vote of confidence! 😊

It's all depends how you handle it... with love or with frustration... Of course sometimes we need a break but I think that a child can bring only happiness - even if it's make you tired sometimes... Reply to this

Isn't it professional job being a program assistant for a Minister as an office manager? That was my best job ever.... after all being a mom way much more fun and pleasure... Ask my Minister 😉
Being a nanny in the same time when you are doing your collage / university is not that much fun but it's a good opportunity to get experience... Reply to this
