Ladies, I need a new job

I know this should go on the career board, but there isnt much activity there. I am a social worker and I've been working at the same place for 2 years. It seems like everyday that I go to work I am asked of more and more and more. Do this, get that done, 'a deadline is a deadline'. I have been looking for a new job, but I can't find anything out there. I work crazy hours just to get all the work done, BUT, it's still not done. No matter how hard I try! DH gets mad cause I am never home when I say I am gonna be home. We just got married! I want to enjoy this time with him. Anyone know who is hiring in Suffolk???

I can't help with the job but I am sorry you are going through this Krista. Lots of hugs to you!!

Thanks Kathleen!!! While my job stinks, I love being married!!! So at least there is something on the up and up

Hey Krista-
I'm a social worker also looking for a new job. It's slim pickin's out there right now. I'm looking in Nassau, though. We should talk some time to commiserate.........it's always good to network with other social workers also.

It is amazing how fast it flies by. I can't wait to see the video so I can remember / relive the moments.

I was glad to help with your programs. I was nervous because I have never created one for someone else so I was HOPING it would come out ok. They looked beautiful!

There are a lot of social workers in public schools and the hours are great, I would try and apply in all the suffolk county school districts. Sachem school district is Gigantic there has to be job openings there.

---

My mom works for Sachem and I am a graduate from there. There are no openings right now. They have only one position opening up in Sept. because one of the social workers is retiring. I will apply, but getting a school job is SO hard for social worker (just as bad as it is for teachers). The compeition is fearce.
