I absolutely love what I do. The money's crummy, and it's thankless at times, but just knowing you're helping people is its own reward (Cheesy as it sounds). If you like people, and can stand to see the same people day in and day out, and don't mind not having much cash on hand at any given time, looking after a family (Or a commune) is an incredible experience. It's like playing 'mom,' and I think I was put on earth to do just this.
Uh, let's see, what you might not know... Well, no one seems to know much about this line of work. It can be difficult, thankless, and oftentimes the people you're taking care of won't even realize you're working so hard. So it's tough. Really tough. Stressful, too. But still wonderful if you can do it. |
