I’m trying to give someone advice on choosing a career that will suit them better than the one they’re in and hate. I wanted to get together a list of good questions for them to ask themselves so they can use the answers to compare options like “do you prefer to work sitting or moving around,” “do you want to not work weekends” etc.

      I’ll put it this way, when your one and only business card says “social worker” on it, that’s how you know. No one who is into insurance is going to say “here, this is my one card, call me” and it has an extension of the local court’s phone number on it.

          You already said that, to no change in effect. It is easily a straight enough answer if you have a card, or do you?

              Alright. I would say the best one is that they’re like diplomats, except instead of being international, they’re top-down.

                    “Social services are like diplomats, except instead of being international, they’re top-down” is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read. You absolutely made that up.
