It can be such a rewarding profession but man oh man is it emotionally draining at times! @Orvis18: Child Protection is what I did when I moved to London! I think the UK is much more supportive in terms of services provided to families so it wasn't nonstop crises all the time, which is good because removing kids from their parents was the most gut wrenching thing ever. Regardless, it was still a good job and I miss it at times. cheesetomywhine on "What was your first job out of school?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-first-job-out-of-school#post-681002 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 20:52:09 +0000 cheesetomywhine 681002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Mama....never had a real full-time job!
