[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 659179, member: 1550"] But your son has no skills and claims he can't get a job. Well, he can. He may think he is above doing that kind of work, but it's a way to help people and not be homeless. If he wants to work, he'll do anything there is. You can't compare yourselves (you have choices) to him. Jumper wanted the paycheck and a job. She did not say, "I'm going to LOVE doing this." But she actually likes her job now and is over the stuff you have to do that nobody here wants to do...lol. She says that if she becomes a cop, she'll see worse. She also is getting attached to some of the residents. Your son says he can't get a job. Well, nursing jobs basically always have jobs to fill. It's an option he has, as long as he doesn't flunk the alcohol/drug test. And most places test for substances. Many jobs do test for alcohol. An alcoholic guy my husband once knew had trouble getting jobs for that reason. Not all jobs are safe if you've been drinking the night before (heavily). And some places just drug test across the board looking for good candidates and those they feel may have alcoholism, which is a huge problem. [/QUOTE]
