Progress report writing...

I've mentioned it before....my hatred of documentation. It's not that despise doing it because I for one am all about writing but what gets me whining is how much work it is to document. You see I can't simply write whatever....because everything I write could be summoned into court including myself to defend and explain my words. Both of which I've witnessed in my not so far past of shadowing social workers.

And while I am confident in my work and thoughts, I hold no confidence that defense attorneys will tear it apart.

Can you tell it's the end of the month which means it's documentation time at the agency?

A month into the work and...

All I can say is, has it only been a month? I feel like the days and weeks are whizzing by. Probably because I have so much to do that I'm usually whizzing through. So far I have about half of my expected case load which is scary because I'm already struggling to handle this many, I have yet to "get" my co-worker, and I'm a semi-pro at navigating the city area now.

Will be back to update w/more details. The kids are calling!
