Svantaggi
everything else. Low pay, no breaks during the day, high turnover and you are constantly doing additional task that should not be your responsibility. Low staff means "surprise no lunch for you"at the last minute. We work with highly aggressive kids and you WILL be injured! Sometimes you are put with a new kid you no nothing about and are not trained on. No good for a child who needs a set schedule and requires regularity. You are not set up for success and if this is your first job out of school it sheds a bad light on this career field. Lack of communication between employees causes chaos on a daily basis. On the bright side no one ever gets fired unless you just stop showing up for work or "go to lunch" and never come back.
