texas:
ts a home care agency and i was the first carer they had, as they aquire more carers they are getting the hours and the carers who are not -- shall we say -- on the list of favourites ie) friends and family of the co ordinators, are getting less. i signed up for 40 plus hours from day one.
This why I left the agency ! worked for !
I passed my NVQ3 and the treated me like s*** gave more responsibility to cares that where new or with no NVQs !

sad to say I now work in a shop
