also went to her social worker, and then to the head administrator at
the home, with my idea on mentoring her on my own time. Since I had the
resident shrink's approval and recommendation of it being a good idea
(in theory, anyway), I felt a bit more confident about doing so, and,
well, did. Her social worker seemed to take me seriously, and said that
she'd consider the possibility, having worked with a number of other
such programs in the past, though not with someone in her/my particular
situation. But she admitted that it was a somewhat unique one, so
strange arrangements might be necessary. So, it was a somewhat positive
'I'll think about it' from her, anyway.
My boss (the
administrator, I guess 'boss' is easier than typing out that 13 letter
word every time) was a bit less welcoming of the idea, first point
blank asking me if I was even sure I wanted to really suggest doing
this, then when I said that I was, and offering up the shrink and
social worker's varying levels of approval (pending or otherwise), she
said that she'd think about it as well...and check with the
facility/company's lawyers on the subject. Since I'd been thinking
about this for a while, I'd asked my cousin to bring up this situation
with his friend as well, and he'd said that he didn't see anything
that'd condemn it, though he admitted that I'd probably have to expect
being watched by a hawk by my 'own' legal-types; I'd expected this,
since it only makes sense that they would, so it wasn't a big surprise.
Anyway, final talley with my boss: Maybe, with a capital M. Better than
no! |
