Don't be this person.

I feel like most social workers have a story of a social worker who should not, in fact, be working *in social work* due to bad ethics or just awful thing they did without insight or self-awareness or sometimes just burn out :( I was curious of what other people's stories were as a warning, but also grain of salt in our field to look out for.

I took over a caseload for a social worker who eventually got fired from hospice. She was writing her notes saying she was making visits seeing the dying patients when in fact, she was *not*. Repeat, lying about seeing dying patients and just writing the notes. She got caught on this behavior 3 fucking times before they finally fired her. I took over her caseload and went into a facility and introduced myself and they said they were surprised to know they had a social worker because they haven't seen one in MONTHS. We had several clients in that building. I felt awful and immediately went to go visit the sweet folks.

That was awful. I hope that social worker got a job in a different field. End of story. Yours?

Also, please leave the field before actively doing harm! Thank you ❤️🥰

Does anyone know why there were fireworks last night at around 10:50pm? Lasted about 10 minutes. My poor dog has cancer and maybe a few weeks left and I'm already not looking forward to July 4th but a week before is so damn frustrating. I know it won't change the situation but at least give me a heads up if it's supposed to happen again. Thanks!
