Many people fear nothing more terrible than to take a position which stands out sharply and clearly from the prevailing opinion. The tendency of most is to adopt a view that is so ambiguous that it will include everything and so popular that it will include everybody -- MLK

I really hope that things around that clinic change. I also hope that they are able to find better employees because a few of the ones they have now, are not suited for the positions that they're in!! I wish nothing but the best for everyone, it's just that some people aren't suited for the careers they choose

There's a meeting? That is great is great to hear, there's a ton of things that need to change around the clinic. Who all is invited to this meeting? When is the meeting, and is there anyway I can be invited to this meeting?

To the person who asked the questions, I'm going to answer your questions and show my age by singing the jingle from an old television program. Here it goes... "when you're least expected you're elected-- you're the star today -- SMILE you're on Candid Camera." Okay, that means YOU my friend can come and voice your concerns. But here's the catch, it's not open to everyone. Give me a holler if you see me hanging out or tell my counselor that you'd like to be included in the big pow-wow. Listen, management has been open to listening and making changes at the center. However, they really do not know what to change if they don't know what exactly needs changing, and how to implement those changes. So they want to hear from the clients themselves. The date of the meeting has not been set but it will happen in the near future. I am merely the messenger who has been given the task of rounding up a few clients who feel comfortable sharing their opinion.

# 25 She did not have to give him a reply. That's a fact because she has never given anyone a written feedback. At least she never gave me one and my rights was taken from me. I have to drive there everyday and it pisses me off. She makes the rules off the top of her head. fact!
6 Hell know she does not know. She is a paper pusher. there is no loved lost between her and anyone who drinks or even smokes. She uses shari because Shari is comfortable around us. But Shari gets a false sense of power because she's only a tech that wishes she had a degree.
Answer, would you?
Would you stick your hand in fire?
Maya Angelou Quote. When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.
Leah has showed her hand too many times for me to drive through that stop sign if I didn't have to.
You must be kidding, right? One of the dangers of having a pencil pusher over a recovery program is that they are not in recovery and have never been in recovery. Needless to say, Leah has never experienced the pain of withdrawal. She may be book smart but that kind of pain is indescribable. If she ever went through a cold turkey withdrawal she would not be as cavalier as she appears to have been about Carey's fate, as he called it, impending doom.
Seriously, one of the few times a person, especially an addicted person, will share their last piece of their drugs is when someone is in withdrawal or is feeling horribly ill because they are going into withdrawal. That's a fact. Only a person who has never been there would deny someone their medicine to take their sick off.
Judge not and ye shall not be judged
Condemn not and ye shall not be condemned
Forgive and ye shall be forgiven

Some of the posts and comments I do not agree with, and others I do not condone whatsoever. But this morning one of the staff members at the center in question was very rude to me and harassed me while I was taking care of my business. I asked her for a copy of something that was posted on a wall. In a smart-ass tone she said "you will have to wait for a counselor to get "YOU" a copy. I then pointed to a note on the same wall that said "all copies must be acquired by a "STAFF MEMBER" -- do not take them down". The clerk then said "I don't care what that says, it's wrong and if you disagree with me then write about it". She apparently was referring to this blog in which some have said unflattering things about her and the way she treats others. I ignored her ignorant attitude but I still was required to wait over an hour before a counselor came in to work to provide me with a few copies. I am so filled up with this woman's unprofessional attitude and petty quarrelsome ways. I am patiently waiting until the day my claim comes to rest. This woman is a disservice to anyone who's trying to find a better way to live.
Anyway, I do not want to get in you and your girl's chitty chat-chat for obvious reasons. That said, what she is speaks so loudly I can not hear what she says. So you're right, professionals at a place of business should be above that she-said, he-said type gossip. However, as we most certainly know, habits are hard to break. Especially those habit that make us feel reeeaal good. Look-out now, we're about to go to school up in here. Are you up for a little recovery talk? Naw.... you ain't ready. Be careful what you ask for.
Speaking of change, that's what I was hoping we could discuss. You know, in recovery it's all about change. You and I know for a fact that if we don't change "the things" we have done in the past, we'll receive the same outcomes of the past... you know the tune, we will get--> jails, institutions and death. That's where we're all headed if we don't make serious changes in our lives. That's why I love people in recovery who have accepted the fact that they must "change". People who are not in recovery (like some of our so-called leaders or staff members) they do not believe they have to change a damn thing. Whatever they're doing is working for them, they think, so why change? Do you see and understand what I'm saying? They will consistently run that place like a mom and pop shop with ambiguous rules because they can, and it's working for them. They have a nice paying job, good credit and the world is their oyster, so why change? On the flip side, we know we must change. Well, I'll speak for myself. I KNOW I've had to make major changes in my life, especially in the way I process everything. I've adapted the ideology that every action starts with a thought. In layman's terms that thought is generated by something we may have seen or heard. Then we process that thought (in our minds) and react to it. That reaction or "action" is what the world sees. But here's the joy about this recovery thing. We, you and I, have complete control of how we react. Get it? We have control over how we react to any and everything that comes our way. For instance, if a fool does or says something stupid to you or about you, you can react by being just as ignorant and stupid as them, or you/we can react in a totally different way.
Now Miss Unknown we are talking about the joys of recovery. You can let me know if you get it, or if I'm boring you to death *lol*. If I was a gambling man I'd bet that you understand exactly what I'm saying. As I said earlier, be careful what you ask for because going to school (recovery school) is not for everyone because it can be uncomfortable when you accept the fact that you have to "change." Change is painful, it's uncomfortable, it hurts, but it soooooo satisfying on the other side.

"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it people will eventual come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the state can shield the people from the political and economic consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the state to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the state. ~ Joseph Goebbels German politician and Reich Minister of Propaganda in Nazi Germany
It's my opinion that the manager tried to hide the truth. Our president is also using Paul Joseph Goebbels propaganda tool.
We are looking for the truth and justice. Individual lives are at risk. If you would prefer to call the helpline that would be understandable. You can also post your inquires here.

Trust? after reading all of these post I don't know who to trust. I cant trust a word our politicians say. I sure can't trust our lying president. Hes trying to keep us safe but with him the price is too high. Last night on the news I saw the boy scouts are under fire for molesting young boys.. Now we have people taking advantage of people who are trying to get help for their drinking problem.
wow I once smoked a blunt but I didn't like it. I will pray for this guy and that counselor to get help.

A KANGAROO COURT HUH. I THINK OUR WHOLE SYSTEM IS A KANKAROO COURT.
but you would never expect something like this to happen in a treatment center. maybe they are underpaid so they cant find qualified people.
do they work for the government.
those people make nice money. I kind of feel sorry for this manager because she must be sick herself. I can't see any other reason that she would treat people so mean.but I called that helpline.
should I call that treatment center if I want to tell them whats on my mind?

She is disrespectful to the clients and doesn't follow any of the rules.
Does she own that treatment center? She must, she does as she pleases:-)
I think she hates alcoholics.
