I started a new job about 8 mths ago. Educational/school counsellor. At first it was hard, but then I found my niche and the bosses went out of their way to say how much they liked my work. (they had an alterior motive, too I think since the previous person in my job went on stress leave because of them, and the wanted to prove they could look after me). But nevertheless things were good.After coming back from summer hols, I’m not sure but things are not so good. In particular something has come from left field. A student has had some major incidents (they are fine now though) and I have not been working on the case – information was not passed on to me very well and I didn’t pick up the gravity of the situation. After the handover I wasnt’ involved in the case, and I wasn’t aware of the importance of the case. Information about the case was passed to my supervisor from the outside agency that dealt with the student, and she came to help us deal with it. Embarrassingly, she told me in front of my on-site bosses what I had to do and taht it was really important. I feel so caught out. I even said to my bosses that I didn’t know much about the case – I feel so embarrassed as it would have seemed like i was ducking for cover. My supervisor is showing she doesn’t trust my work by questioning me on other cases too. I had answers but I feel under scrutiny. It’s as good as a reprimand. I feel so shown up – like my facade is falling down – my reputation changing to that of unreliability.
I feel like I’ve lost my reputation 🙁 So hard to stop ruminating over this and get back on the front foot 🙁
I work in a very high stress job with fairly decent pay – has anyone else been through this? Tips on digging back in despite worries and doubts

I’m 19 years old and my entire life I’ve felt like I was something different than everyone else. Not in a good way either, more like I had a different mentality and understanding of the world than almost everyone else. For example, let’s say that 99.99% of the world’s population were apple Jolly Rancher’s, I always felt like I was a cherry Jolly Rancher in a world of apples. For whatever reason, I was always incredibly anti-social (and I still am today). I had several friends, but I found it hard to be able to relate to them as well. All the kids I talked to in my school on rare occasion seemed to be set on doing their homework, getting A’s on assignments and projects, and getting jobs while they were in school. I never liked homework; always blew it off to play video games and hang out with friends, always wanted a job but never had a half-decent resume of any kind, and was caught up in pipe dreams of one day making it big in the music industry. A few people I knew growing up wanted to make music too, but every single one of them copped out on it, because it was more of a trend and not something that was a passion for them like it is for me.
Many (almost all) of the people I associate with now talk about being in college, getting degrees, and choosing the profession of their dreams. But for me, I have no interest in doing any of that. I have a passion for music, writing, and tobacco products. My interest in following the path in life that so many choose to take was always temporary and superficial. The only value I saw in that lifestyle was being able to earn the respect of average people who only did what their parents did, and their grandparents did, and so on. That lifestyle seems empty to me and I feel like I’d be betraying myself if I followed it just to appease people in this society. I’d also be betraying myself if I tried to live an alternative lifestyle just to appeal to the counter-culture. I do what I do, because it’s what I want and not because it’s what other people want for me. I know that just by typing this, I’m gonna get comments from people who are going to accuse me of trying to live up to a lifestyle just for approval. I’m not worried about those people, I just wish they would realize that maybe someone out there really does want something different then what most people really have or really want.
The kinds of things I’m interested in are the kinds of things most people would associate with trouble like being a tattoo artist, or the owner of a pipe shop,or a liquor store manager, or even a rocker. I have tried many times to fit into the shoes of an average joe, but I just can’t do it. I don’t have the mentality, the patience, or the intelligence to be like them. It doesn’t mean I’m better or worse then every Betsy or Zack, it just means I don’t share the same niche. My belief system and understanding of the world is so dramatically different that I couldn’t possibly survive living this lie. It’s like I’m a puzzle piece from an entirely different puzzle that keeps getting jammed into the society puzzle. Believe me, I’ve tried to fit in and make my life count just like everyone around me, but it’s just not the same. I truly believe my purpose is else where, but if I don’t try to find out for sure, how will I ever know?

I think there is some sort of conspiracy involving a new world or whatever you wanna call it and it pisses me off but the Illuminati? I haven’t seen enough to support it yet.

It’s a software/hardware device that plugs into a computer. Can’t get my head around which comes first, Copyright, Provisional Patent, and then Trademark’ing the name of the product.

If I had to do in text citings like blah blah (name of source) how willI do it for this?
They gave me a couple of reports to read and write about and they want me to cite it, but they didnt give me the authors name. They gave me the article title and they gave me the name of the medical association the author is affiliated with and they gave me the name of the newspaper another report came from. Like, this is a report from the Mesa Medical Research Foundation— and then the report is called “Chest Pains”
How would I do the in text citations?
