I'm sure I have enough hours on my log sheet now, but I still need one more class and need to pass the State exam for my State License.
I am underpaid, so haven't been able to save up or the rest of my tools and have a buffer savings set aside and my mentor can be very patronizing and isn't much help with questions and answers about how to's and why's.
I am sure I am doing a good job, my reports don't get kicked back and have many repeat clients, I am smart and witty and I get really fired up about things looking up but so many times now there have been broken promises - I am so at the end of my rope, I'm ready to call my Dad for a loan, walk out/run away from my mentor, get the rest of my equipment, take the last class and hopefully pass the test, and wing it on my own.
Any thoughts from anyone? I feel I'm stuck where I'm at and maybe I just need to go for it-take a chance, can't get any worse right? I could make a better living as a clerk at the mall as it stands now!
