Yeah, not really much point in being prepared to work with people with mental health problems, learning difficulties, recovering drug addicts, ex offenders, elderly mentally impaired, young parents, young people excluded from their families, victims of domestic abuse, alcoholics and the homeless.

Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.
It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle.
When the sun comes up, you better start running.

The vulture sleeps in. It gets whatever's left over.

But in fact, both the gazelle and the lion spend as little time as possible running. The lion will sleep most of the day, and will only run if the gazelle is easy enough to catch. The gazelle will graze as much as it can, laert yes, but expending as little energy as possible. Humans alone do more work than necessary, being motivated by things like the work ethic.

Every morning a seagull wakes up
It knows it must empty it's bowel or it will explode.
Every morning a pigeon wakes up
It too knows it must empty it's bowel or it will explode.
You're not a pigeon or a seagull.
But the one thing you can be certain of.
You will be shat on.

"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown in to the sea." - Eric Cantona

What kind of games do you play that results in you digging these threads up?

I like the mentalness of it! Medium high, five.

If there's something I want to discuss I use the search function to see if there's an appropriate thread, and post upon it.
Sometimes I get heat from the mods but I don't really understand the games they play.

Refuse collector-it's better than walking the streets.

I always refuse collectors when they bang on the door when I am watching Hymns on Sunday for example/ F**k of!f I tell them or I'll kick you in the nuts sister. Chug on, I say sometimes, and have a quiet little chuckle at my wit as I close the door.
