[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being a social worker is a horrible career. I would say OT, PT or SLP.[/quote] Some jobs are soul sucking and will turn you into a person who believes our society is shit and what's the damn point of anything. But there are other areas of social work. One of my professors loved end of life care. There's also jobs in VA homes and hospitals. [/quote] As a Social Worker, I would have to disagree that it is a horrible career. I have been a Social Worker for almost 20 years and I love it. However, just being the 'kindest person' doesn't mean being a great Social Worker. In fact, those are the people who often blur boundaries and burnout the quickest. The best Social Workers I know genuinely care, but are realists. Many of the kindest people I know would have their souls crushed by the awful things that are out there.[/quote]
