My Future Professional Life.

Goodbye cegep!

Yeah! I finished the program of Special Care Counseling! I learned a lot and I have evolved a lot too. I loved learning new skills and it could be nice to specialize myself, but I would work and made money too.

Choice 1 : School is nice.

Choice 2 : Work & money.

cegep of Thetford

School is nice.

This was my first year at this school. In general, I learned a lot and liked to go to most classes. In one of my classes, the teacher was a man. He had made many misplaced advances to me and my friends. He told us that if we put on clothes more open, he would give better grades. I talked with friends, and they told me it was sexual harassment. I don't know what I had to do. If I denounced him, I was scared of being dismissed from the course.

Choice 1 : Denounce him!

Choice 2 : Say nothing...

The teacher

Work & money.

I finished school! I was ready to work. There was a lot of Special Care counselor missing. I had a lot of job offers. I wanted to work with people with mental impairment, addiction or down syndrome. The organization where I did my intern wanted to keep me. It could have been nice because I already had a foot in the door, but I wanted new challenges.

Choice 1 : Mental impairment.

Choice 2 : Addiction.

Choice 3 : Down syndrome.

Money

Denounce him!

I went to denounce him, but the board of directors said that he was a good teacher and that I misinterpreted what he meant. I think he manipulates them. I felt caught in a bias. I did not know if I wanted to change schools, or stay at the same?

Choice 1 : Other school.

Choice 2 : Stay in that school...

Council

Say nothing...

To each class, he made inappropriate remarks. The more I tried to ignore him, the more he made bad remarks. When he passed near of me, he touched me. I want to more absentee in his classes. But I do not want to be kicked out.

Choice 1 : Be absent more often.

Choice 2 : Go to all classes.

Humiliation

Other school.

I had changed schools, I made new friends, the teachers are even more motivating and I learned more about the things that I loved, like the different forms of maladjustment. I'm happy about this decision!

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Friends

Stay in that school...

My teacher learned that I made a complaint against him. He asked me to do a 2000 word assignment to say why I'm sorry. He asked me to do the correction of the rest of the session. I finished with the passing grade but I never had him again.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Help

Be absent more often.

I had started missing more classes. I was going there once in two. I was learning less. I was very late for others. The teacher started to hate me. My notes had dropped. I thought about stopping school.

Choice 1 : Stop school.

Choice 2 : Continue.

F

Go to all classes.

I continued to go to all of my classes. After my session, I learned that the teacher was old and that I would not have him anymore, because he was going in retirement. He was not going to work anymore. I finished my university. I found a job and I loved it.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Finish

Stop school.

I stopped school. I didn't do anything with my days. I was traumatized by the thought of reliving harassment. I didn't want to be a Special Care Counselor anymore. I lived with too much dread to continue. I hoped to return work one day.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Do nothing

Continue.

I continued school. I finally did everything I could for succeed. I tried to become a model student again. I went to all classes, did my homework. I tried to do the best I could at school, but I was discouraged. I dropped the school and went back to work Special Care Counseling.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Help

Mental impairment.

I was happy. There was a vacant position, so they were very happy to have someone who could take it. I quickly developed a relationship with a schizophrenic lady. I spent a lot of time with her. I did overtime for her. The other Special Care Counselor started to intimidate me for this reason. I didn't know if I had to continue because I liked being with the patients, but I didn't like the working atmosphere.

Choice 1 : Go overtime.

Choice 2 : Atmosphere is important.

Help

Addiction.

I worked a lot with addicted to drugs. During my first day, three people asked me if I wanted drugs and two told me that if I gave them a speed, he would have given to me two hundred dollars. I was attracted by both proposals.

Choice 1 : Taste drugs.

Choice 2 : Sell speed.

Choice 3 : Respect the law.

Drugs

Down syndrome.

An association gave me a job interviews. I had to prove that I was the best, that they had to take me. They asked me a lot of questions. Unfortunately, I did not get the job because it was not a real job offer. It was the owner of the association who was looking for a wife. He was cute, and I was single, but he didn't have a nice car.

Choice 1 : Become a wife.

Choice 2 : Run.

Down syndrome

Go overtime.

My boss was so happy to have me on his team because of everything I did that he gave me a compensation package. He told me that he was happy to have an employer who invested so much. He increased my salary and gave me more vacancy. It gave me even more desire to work.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Compensation package

Atmosphere is important.

I wanted to keep a good relationship with other employees, so I decided to stop overtime. However, I wanted to keep the good relationship I had with patients. I decided to do volunteer with them. They loved that. Everything was fine, I was very happy.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

He bought a new car. I fell in love. I married him, and we had three children with the down syndrome.

The car was more important than the personality. I did not want others saw me with a BMW. It was Porsche or nothing.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

I tried my client's drug. I did a bad trip. I went to the hospital. I developed an addiction for the drugs. I lost my job and could not work as a Special Care Counselor anymore. I had started to sell. I was killed by another gang.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!

Kill

Sell speed.

I found someone who sold me speed. It didn't cost much, so I made a lot of money. It was poor quality. My customers' dead. I was in prison for murder. I was recruited by a gang to become a dancer in prison. I accepted. When I went out, they kept me and I had more money.

Choice 1 : Goodbye cegep!
