My current employment offers a challenging and somewhat rewarding environment. Each day is different and therefore offers diversity. The residents change regularly and therefore new challenges develop and need to be addressed on an individual basis.
I have learnt many new skills which have helped me grow as a person.
I am able to use many skills I have learnt from life experience to assist the residents in planning for their future and advocating to other service providers where necessary.
My co-workers and I all work very closely together to ensure that there is consistency between staff and residents. We are a team and have the same goals.
The most enjoyable part of my job is knowing that I have made a difference in someone else's life and been able to help them move forward to hopefully a better life.

I lived on the job site. the accommodation was good and kept in good condition. 
Basically, I worked for the Government for 16 years straight in a job that I liked and I was interested in. 
Generally, the people were good to work with, the working conditions were great. I had a disabled child and the support was just brilliant we were in Sydney every 6 months for a week the week was never a problem as I needed it I could also give 6 months notice when the appointments were.      
I was on call 24/7 365 days which is not a problem as that is normal for a family farm. the days were generally good at 38hrs with a 9 day fortnight. 
The job was my type as I enjoy going to work and just not knowing what I would be doing today even though I plan jobs 12 months in advance. It was a typical family farming job.

All in all a great job.  

Good pay and allowances. 

Great people to work with.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Collaboration within my department to complete all the various tasks that come up during a typical da within the hotel service department

Glenfield park was not an easy place to be because of the severe behavioral problems of the children and young people attending the school. Staff were intense a lot of the time because of the atmosphere the students created through their behavior and demeaner. The teachers and other staff got along well even though they had to work in such difficult circumstances most of the time. Staff managed themselves well with one another in order to keep things under control when trouble would break out among students and between staff and students. 

I gained significant job satisfaction from assisting clients with energy saving measures in a program targeted toward lower income individuals. Acting as a sub-contractor, there was little interaction with other staff apart from consulting with the call centre for appointment details and variations. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the limitation of time allocated for each appointment and the frustration which came from customers not being at home at the appointed time.

Each day can be different as we provide many services to the community so lots of varied clients attend the service for care. There is an Aged care residential ward where we provide daily care for the elderly and palliative care. it is a nice environment with a homely feel and all staff provide a high standard of care to all clients. Our management have an excellent approachable/ open door policy which maintains a good supportive atmosphere. The staff have a good rapport with each other and genuinely care about our clients and each other.

It is really very stressful to work in Health Hospitals but not everyday, but I loved it as we get a lot to learn new things, which gives me good experience for my future jobs. Its challenging but it brings out the real qualities  which we have but we don't realize until we come in that kind of situation. Its really good work experience working with doctors, nurses different department managers, good pay, extra hours, salary sacrifice, overall satisfaction.

Carry out recreation activities, like disco, sporting events of year calendar and weekly meeting with stakeholders to review day program activities. 
It was great working for this organization for various reasons. One its helped strengthen my career in community service, also it gave my an opportunity  to meet my financially needs and even got an opportunity to pursued my tertiary studies.

Teaching is a very difficult and stressful job. But after 33 years I was expert in my field. This is not to say I could learn no more. Everyday depending on the school I taught, and I have taught at 9, offered challenges. However though it was hard , though kids were at times difficult and the DET/ DEC was not always helpful I loved the job and 
made lasting relationships with staff and many senior students.
I really did feel I made a difference.

Work environment in government service not conducive to the exercise of initiative and innovation. Rewards are provided to those who toe the metaphorical line and any one who refuses to accept that proposition is generally not well regarded by those who have the power to make decisions and policy. In short show signs of a desire to change the system and be creative and you will inevitably be left behind or relegated to the also rans when promotions are in the offing! Bitter yes, successful in my chosen career YES!!!
