I've never heard of a Social Worker making "great pay" before

@Fernie [c=#7700B2]to me its great pay.. it is stable income, pays all my bills and I have extra money.. that is great in my books[/c]
FernieF
@PlumBerries Yes, it IS great. I just have never heard of a social work being paid well. Social workers are one of the most over worked, underpaid, under appreciated workers. Good for you though!

[c=#7700B2]or other social workers have lousy attitudes lol[/c]
FernieF
@PlumBerries Most "lousy attitudes" exist because of the low pay, enormous caseloads, very little respect or support. I worked in Social services longer than you've been alive and that's how it was across the board. I think you just lucked out

[c=#7700B2]I didn't get into it for the pay. I love my job and the people I work with. It gets me out of my house and makes me feel like I am doing something worthwhile with my life.. the pay is just a bonus[/c]

@PlumBerries I don't know ANYone who ever got into Social work for the pay...they did it for the same reasons you did but were worn down by the powers that be. Again, your situation is unique and you are very fortunate
PlumBerries31-35, F
[c=#7700B2]that makes sense and yes I am very fortunate. hopefully I don't get that way in the future though[/c]
