THANK YOU SUZETTE!

Thank you for SHARING with us your experience in trying to find work in a state

that has much prejudice. I am so very happy for you that you continued your

education and could meet the person who would give you a break!

Networking helped by meeting others in your field and your persistence paid

off. Your skills obtained in Chicago, that you displayed in class are what

brought you and that RPh together.

We needed to hear from someone who is in the SAME shoes as a " dpeacesmaker " .

Actually " dpeacesmaker " needed to hear from you.

Thank you again!

Hi my name is Suzette and I am 41. Yes racism and prejudice do

exist . Bump that, you walk in with confidence and make sure you speak

to the right people. Talk with the pharmacist in charge, lead techs and

make sure you have a copy in hand of updated resume! DO NOT LET YOUR

COLOR GET IN YOUR WAY! I'm black just like you and it's hard out here

right now. Have you seen they are cutting jobs again, unemployment is

going up. I work at one of the toughest retail places to work at

Walgreens been there a year and it has not been nice. I hung in there

for the need to take care of my 5 almost grown children. I came from

IV's in a hospital in Chicago. I was unemployed in Houston, Tx for 9

months before anyone would call me for anything and no they do not pay

in the south as they do in the north. The cost of living is going up

everywhere. Do not dare give up. It takes a lot of networking and

willing to take whatever they give you, and yes you will take a paycut

or don't work at all. That is the motto for company's now days. Trust

me there is always someone that will work for less than you want. You

didn't say where you live and if you are certified or not and stay on

top of your lessons even though you are not working and smile it helps,

dress for success. My one blue 100 dollar suit works everytime. Change

that attitude to SOMEONE WILL HIRE ME ! They can see that a mile away.

I know what you are going thru. I just took a prn job at the hospital

and I met the pharmacist thru the IV certification class she was giving

and she said she needed a backup tech now thats about 25 hours a week.

I'm now at both jobs prn work is as needed they will work with you.

Just be willing to take until you can do better. I work almost 7 days a

week (have high goals right now)and I'm tired but it will pay off you

never know who you might run into that can give you a job. Take any job

while you are looking employers prefer employed than unemployed.

Hi Dpeacesmaker,

I'm curious - where do you live? I live near Atlantic City NJ. I don't find it

to be a particularly racist area.

You should apply to any and every job you see listed. Also apply to pharmacies

who aren't hiring right now. More often than not, I get applications when we

are not hiring and not when we are.

Update your resume. Sell yourself.

You need to look the part before you actually get it. Wear your best clothes to

interviews or on job hunts. Grooming is essential. Nothing too overt or

obnoxious - that goes for clothing (including shoes), makeup, perfume/cologne,

jewelry (especially piercings.)

Speak with the pharmacy supervisor (if possible), the pharmacist in charge or

the lead tech.

You said you went to a pharm tech school. Have any of your classmates found

jobs? Ask them for referrals.

Find a job in the healthcare field (not necessarily pharmacy) while job hunting.

In hospitals, there are a lot of jobs unrelated to pharmacy. If you take one

and a job in the pharmacy opens up, many hospitals will hire in house first.

Retail pharmacies are the easiest to get into. Most of them prefer to do their

own in house training. And with chains there is usually one every corner.

Apply to all of them. Take a job as the pharmacy cashier. It shows you are

willing to work your way up.

Check out monsterjobs.com . I am always looking for new opportunities. And I

notice when I check that website it's loaded with jobs that aren't in the paper.

Good luck.

The northwest is very diverse. We have people from all races and

cultures around here and nobody thinks of prejudice. I'm not saying

that it doesn't exist, but it isn't very common.

The Portland/Vancouver area has large Chinese and Russian communities

(along with other parts of the former Soviet Union). Plus there were

a couple of Vietnamese in my pharmacy classes.

Patti, this is just wonderful. I do hope you are successful!

I don't have a lot of experience with this, though I did something similar. I

went to our synagogue, after having confirmed with Noah that he would enjoy

working there and I worked out a deal whereby my husband and I would make a

donation to cover his first year salary (working at minimum wage for 1.5 hours

per day) and then, if things went well, the synagogue would continue to pay him,

which currently is happening. He loves cleaning there and he still has DRS job

coach support until about Dec which was established prior to his exiting school

last June. I may have to pay for a job coach with Noah's home based funding,

if he still needs support (that remains to be seen).

Another friend worked with the school prior to graduation and with the help of

the vocational coordinator in our special ed Transition program, was able to

develop three volunteer positions for her daughter which, almost a year later,

have worked out well. She is quite independent and takes public transportation

to some of her " jobs " . The down side is that none of the jobs (all three are

health clubs) were willing to pay...even though this young lady is really quite

capable! But she is busy the entire day and she is SO happy! So, your idea is

a really good one. Emmett may be a good resource. He is a specialist in

the area of job development for people with disabilities.

I am trying to gather information on trying to open some doors for employment

for my 20

year old daughter. ( Paid/volunteer ) I need some info. on credits and

liability for

Companies. I want to make a offer/presentation to some small local companies

Has anyone done this before. I need a good sell to try and open some doors. I

also need

facts about liability and tax credits etc... Does anyone have any information

or stories to

share. My daughter will be turning 21 and we have visited many workshops and I

am trying

to think out of the box. It does not have to be a paid position since her

abilities are so

scattered. We are thinking a few hours a week only. I have the companies in

don't know how to get in the door. Thank you, Patti

[Guest guest]

Hi Patti-

I saw your email and thought I would give a quick answer to your question

below.? First, I think it is very important to determine what jobs (volunteer or

paid) that your daughter will be best at - what are her primary skills &

interests?? My suggestion to you is when you talk to a company - take it from

their perspective and talk about how working with your daughter and the

disability community will benefit them.? Research has shown that people with

disabilities are as safe or safer and typically have as good or better

attendance rates than workers without disabilities.? The Work Opportunity Tax

Credit (WOTC) is available to companies who hire job seekers with disabilities.?

A new research study by De entitled - Exploring the Bottom Line: A Study of

the Costs and Benefits of Workers with Disabilities - will help you talk to the

benefits of working with the disability community (you can find links to the

study by searching on the title on ).? I also believe that I put a list

together of 20 reasons why businesses should work with the disability community

that is archived by IPADD that may help you.

Remember, more & more companies are agressively reaching out to the disability

community.? Walgreens (www.walgreensoutreach.com), CVS, Bank of America, Canon

Refurbishing Center, and Midway Moving & Storage are a few examples.? I believe

the key is to find a good fit for your daughter, do your homework on the

company, and sell them on the " business bonuses " of working with your daughter

and the disability community.

Feel free to contact me at emmettx4@... for more specifics.

Hi Patti,

Where do you live? Because there are a group of us in the Naperville area doing

this exact thing right now, and perhaps we can work through some of this

together. To what and Ellen have already mentioned, I'd suggest you go to

DisabilityWorks.org and scroll around -- they've got lots of printable handouts

you could review and potentially handout to potential employers.

I agree with the others, though, that it's important to start with what

skills/talents/interests your daughter has OR what kinds of work

settings/climates she prefers. Then we build from there.

Keep us posted and feel free to contact me off-line if you want to discuss this

further.

How true! And I wish I had known that BEFORE graduation!!!

jobs

Since our family has been laser focused on employment for our son I would

like to toss in another step. We are connected with Parents Alliance, an

employment agency for people with disabilities, connected with DHS in the

western suburbs. We live walking distance from a small college and we

really pushed them to find a job at the college.After five months Adam was

hired. He does very light clerical, has a very supportive manager. He

works three hours a week. We are thankful for this opportunity. As Lori

mentioned this employment does not add up to a lot of hours. Between

Noodles and the college job Adam works 7 hours a week. It takes a lot

ofjuggling to manage this. In between those spurts of work Adam needs other

activities.

He also mows lawn for a few people during the summer, his dad his his job

coach, and with all these snippets of work he left transition with his own

credits for ssdi/medicare. I really encourage getting the work in before

the students graduate.

In the Joliet area, I know that Kmart, and Taco Bell have hired people with

disabilities as my daughter has worked at both. She is currently at Taco Bell 3

hours per week(started a year ago at 12 hours), which she got while still in

transition(graduated last January), and they went out of their way to keep her

on the payroll thru this recession by moving her to a store that could support

her. MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) at local churches may be a source. Steph

was paid to watch 3-4 year olds last year. Program changed hands and she lost

her position, so it depends on the person running it. I know our local Jewel

also hires. Gloria

I am just curious about this. Do you find most people that have candida are able

to continue to work? I resigned from my good job because my symtoms were so bad.

I now work another job that is a bit easier. But as I am detoxing I find at

times that is hard for me. It is hard to work if you are light headed, sick,

etc...

Not working is not an option now.

+++Hi. What is your name please? Some people are able to continue working, and

many " have to " so they do not have a choice. However, I was fired from my job

for being sick (in 1985) because even when I was able to be at work I spent too

much time upchucking in the bathroom. But that was after having candida for 30

years too; I was 44 years old.

So it depends upon how long a person has been unhealthy, their age, the severity

of the damage to their health, the organs that have deteriorated and how long,

etc.

Of course it is extremely important that you follow the diet all of the time,

not cheat, and that you take all of the supplements.

You can lessen your detoxing somewhat by not increasing your antifungal too

quickly and doing more things that help your body detoxify when not working,

i.e. Epsom salt bath, dry skin brushing, coffee enemas, etc.

All the best, Bee

Hi:

I'm in the same boat as you. I can't afford to not work. But if I were in a

position to take off some time and sleep in and pamper myself a bit, I surely

would. Also, if we had enough money to move, we'd do it now; we want to get out

of California, and our next house HAS to be one level.

Although I'm technically an independent contractor, my boss has put up with a

lot from me over the years. I don't think he'd be happy were I to even think

about an extended leave of absence, not just the fact that I can't afford to

stop working.
