A question for Glacier

Yup, pretty much. Milo was trying to get Tehya to get up and play with him again.

This Raven playbowing at me. She wants to play "Get Raven"...I chase her, she runs in circles. Really, it's fun!

So cute! That's Chipper's favorite game too. He play bows to me and wants me to chase him.

Your threads are always amazing, I love reading about life with 24 (?is that right now) huskies! It's a wonder you have time for that pesky real job of yours!

Pirate is number 25.

I am lucky to have an extremely flexible job. My bosses are great and don't really care how I do my work or when, as long as it gets done. That's why I get to post from my office and got to change my schedule so I don't work on Mondays.

WOW!

That's more than "flexible" ... that's almost unBELIEVABLE!

Now, do they let you do all that AND *PAY* you, too?

Pray Tell - just what do you *DO* that comes with all these perks?

And - do you need an "assistant"?
I could keep your chair warm on Mondays. (And sharpen pencils Tuesday - Friday.)

Wonderful idea! While Phred is warming Tamara's chair, she could teach Cinder and Smoke how to mush

LOL. I have an assistant who I don't think wants to give up her job! I do get her to do much more than sharpen pencils! She's a busy girl.

Yes, they pay me. Not nearly enough, but they pay me! I still work all full time hours. I'm just allowed to do it in 4 days instead of five. I work 8am to 6pm four days a week. There are actually very few people in my building who work a standard 9-5 day. Several come in at 6am and leave at 3 so they don't have to pay for after school care for their kids. Lots of people work an extra half hour a day and take one day every two weeks off. Some work part time at home and part time in the office.

I'm a vocational rehabiliation counsellor. I work with people who have suffered significant injuries at work and can never return to their jobs. Most of my clients have been so badly injured that they are off work for years; some will never be able to work in any form ever again. I co-ordinate and arrange for all their medical appointments, surgery, travel(not many health care options up here), and therapy ect. Once they are medically stable, I help them with retraining, education and finding new work.

Hey Glacier, do you think some of your clients could benefit from a little canine therapy?

It's funny, before you said what you actually do I was going to say that it sounds like the only thing that would make it better would be if you could take a dog to work with you. Ah yeah, but it would tough to decide who gets to go and who stays home.

wow!
Must be kinda rewarding at times - when you get someone successfully rehabbed;
but I'll bet there are some tuff cases that that are pretty rough to handle.

*ENJOY* your Monday OFF!
