Almost my whole life I’ve known that being a social worker can be very difficult because my mom is one herself.

I hear it all the time from my mother about how hard it is to find the simplest thing for somebody can be so difficult. Rather it be her bosses or the company she works for.

Part of the problem is that the programs that are being funded to help people are helping the wrong type of people.

If you’re a drug addict and or an alcoholic there are many resources out there to help. So why do alcoholics keep fucking up? Kind of makes you wonder don’t you think?

I will say if you are a lower-functioning person with a disability then you have almost all the resources that a person can ask for.

I’m not saying don’t ever become a social worker because there is a real need for them. People do need them. It’s just stressful dealing with a limited amount of resources out of the plus dealing with the company that you’re working for.

If you are a medical social worker, then for sure you’re stressed out because of how bad the medical field is in the United States medical system.

Part of the issue is that nurses and social workers have so many patients to see, never mind in one day but in a week. It can be very overwhelming.

The money isn’t bad however there’s a lot of responsibility that comes with that money.

Being a non-medical social worker is difficult as well.

Some social workers leave their jobs to go to another job and they don’t even know what the job entails.

This is where the people congressman and House of Representatives rather it means federal or local government who have some sort of medical degree step in and make changes for more resources out there.

You would think that in the good ole US there that there would be more resources out there that people would care enough to create a better way. Nope. For whatever reason it’s still very tough to get things done for people.

My mother is 62 years old and has done the job for over 30 years, she keeps talking about retirement.

I can’t help but think that if there were better ways to help people and to not give social workers so many patients that means the social workers would want to stay in the field longer.
