Data entry was actually one of the best jobs they gave my intellectually disabled sister at goodwill. She graded donated books and punched their ISBNs into an online database for resale. They have some pretty awful disability employment practices in regards to pay but she was living with us anyway and it was the main thing she looked forward to during the week. Then she’d spend the money on going to the movies with a care aide on Friday. If she’d actually had to support herself on the money it would’ve been a mess but in her case it was more just something stimulating to keep her out of trouble. Then she started yelling racial slurs at everybody and got fired and was stuck home with nothing better to do than beat the shit out of the rest of us so all good things come to an end I guess.

It’s a dirty job, but someone’s got to do it.

I almost failed out of high school as a “gifted kid” so there were a bunch of meetings and one of the social workers tried to analyze the relationship between me and my mother and I was like yeah nah my sister beating us is waaay worse and that’s how I found out a different social worker when I was a kid threatened to remove the rest of us if my mother kept complaining about her so anyway the social worker at my highschool told us to just start calling the cops and coached my mother on what to say so they didn’t shoot anybody but would just come and take pictures and give us case numbers and eventually we were able to leverage that into group home placement.
