I had the worst day at work.... I work for a mental health housing agency in which we make house visits to our clients. Today I went to see a particularly 'sick' client this afternoon. Because of her diagnosis and recent symptoms, I am not visiting her apt alone anymore, I bring another staff member. So I went today with a male staff member for something that needed to be done at her site. Long story short, she ended up verbally and physically assualting me...
I had to call 911 as she was banging on my car window with her fists and kicking my car door.
Police came and took her to Psych ER....
Ultimately I am glad she is going to the hospital to get the help she needs, but it sux that what happened today had to lead it there.
FH came to the scene (we work together) and then followed me home, as I was shaken up.
What a DAY!!! Had to vent girls! Thanks for listening!

Re: today=terrible
I give you credit...I use to work for Pederson-Craig and would go into homes of teens with different issues...I couldn't handle it and left within 7 months of starting. I always say how hard of a job it is and it takes a very strong person to do that day in and day out. Hope tomorrow is better for you
