I started out too many yrs ago as a waitress @ .78 cents an hour. Tips were supposed to bring us up to min wage. Then a CNA for many yrs until I injured my back and the last 16 yrs I have been a Supervisor, working with developmentally handicapped adults. Liked the job but loved my clients. Was forced to retire last yr on disability after my latest, one of way to many, back surgeries. I don't miss the job--too many changes with the economy but I sure as the devil miss my clients!!
