Episode 6: Personalities and Principles

Yeah, it’s almost an hour, but it’s not too long. It’s filled with rich, chewy goodness.  A lot packed in here, including the coworkers, the bosses, and the clients.  Corrections, not Rehabilitation.   How did I grow some ethics over the years? How did I come to care about work?   More goatbell!   The next one is the last of these pilot episodes! Then we go in a whole other direction. Stick around!

Episode 5: Monkey in the Riddle

Jump into the Reflection pool... What does it mean that a job "didn't work out"?  The Sunday Scaries. Quit worrying and solve the problems.  Some of the shit that teachers are dealing with. No training, no trust.  That co-worker who gets away with all kindsa sh**. The reality of the GED. Grading our podcast progress!

Episode 4: Family Business

Union affiliations. Hit parade of f***ups. New job training (includes CPR!). Opportunity on the side? Or molotov cocktail? DUALITY. Unemployment and The Butcher of Broadway. AWC (Acting While Casting) (or Casting Under the Influence of Actors). Doing/Being 2 things at once.

Episode 3: Joy Meets Need

Teenagers, ugh. But look at what they have to deal with. An intro to the pace of bureaucracy. Background of Hollywood driving. Background of teaching, the business of human growth. Frederick Buechner. What makes you happy? What serves the world? What mistake did I make?  (Thank you Fred & Trish!!)
