Can I do it?

First day at work yesterday.

Man that was an experience. I can't really go into much detail due to not really being clear on the confidentiality side of things! It was care work for disabled adults, in this flat two guys. One needing 2 to 1 support and the other 1 to 1. It was hands on the whole time. Neither of them could talk and a lot of my time was spent just keeping an eye on them. They both have challenging behaviour (yey, 64p extra an hour) and act like children.

We had music group in the afternoon - great fun! Not so fun on the car journey sitting between them though! One liked to hit. They're both really lovely though and you just fall in love with them.

The work will involve personal care as they can't do anything for themselves. I feel like I needed to be older and more worldly wise before I can do the job though. I need to have had kids! Cuz that's what it's like.

I'd like to be able to do it. It'll be good for me. I'm just not sure if it's for me. There's so much to remember and to do. Maybe it gets easier. It takes me an hour to get there too on the bus. I'm going to try biking tomorrow (gotta be there for 7.30am) and see how that goes! Working on Monday too - time and a half yey. Maybe I can stick it out until at least the summer!

I don't think I can be authoritative enough.

Hmmm... all confused
