Diary of an NDIS Worker Day 9

 14/12/2024

Dear Diary,


Today I have my second shift with C.

It's like we are friends hanging out together for the day.

C's other carer was there.

The other carer has been doing this work for three years.

They gave me some advice about other platforms and agencies to try.

I asked them how they found it all, not getting sick pay or annual leave and having to pay their own super.

They said on balance it was about the same money they were getting in a corporate job. They quit that job because they had clumps of hair falling out from stress.

I 'worked for 5.5 hours today. Was relaxed, I played with C's dog Harry and dropped C off at a mall. C scooted off in their whizz bag wheelchair..

Was altogether a very relaxing day.. didn't feel like work at all.


I looked at Twitter for a while - Trump is assembling his cabinet. Some broken bits of crockery in there.
