10 Things I’ve learned from fieldwork:
1. If you take a 5
minute bathroom break every hour, that’s 40 minutes less you have to work.
2. People don’t
notice if you take an extra-long lunch, watch Netflix (as long as you have
headphones on), or go to Starbucks.
3. No one knows how
long it really takes you to write up an eval.
You can write one real quickly and pretend to be doing it for days. They don’t know.
4. Catching kids from
5 feet up is just part of the job. And
trust me, not every kid is as little as they look.
5. If you pretend to
be busy, people won’t talk to you as much or ask you to do as many things.
6. If someone has a
nosebleed, save the pillows first, and then deal with the child.
7. It’s actually okay
to be on pinterest as long as you look up crafting things for your kids.
8. Not everyone is friendly;
sometimes they’re downright mean (on purpose).
So kill them with kindness.
9. When in doubt,
plan an obstacle course.
10. Playing with kids
is not a privilege. That’s why people
get paid to do it.
