I was working in a store, when I was asked by a friend if I would like to take care of a gentleman in his home. I did, and became very good at my job. I used to work in a nursing home, but found that there was never enough help. I did not want to quit, but it was very frustrating trying to take care of ten to twelve people by yourself. The resident is the one who suffered because of this. But I felt I had no choice, because I had to physically take care of myself, before I could take care of someone else. So since then I have been doing private care. It is a good paying job, but it is most rewarding. This type of job is not for everyone, of course, but if it is for you, there is nothing like going to a job that is considered to be a privilage to be a blessing to someone else.
