BACK FROM THE DEAD!

 Hi Ya'll, Who is this you may ask, tis me your long lost author of this blog with a short update of coming events. As I had forgotten all the details of signing in to my blog and only just recovered them, hence the neglect. Still better late than never. When I have prepared something to post I will be back!
P.S. I am the monkey who's tail is waving at the sun, just in case you forgot what I look like LOL

Community Placement

Date  for the 26th of march     
 Hi this one belated but important post, please forgive the delay as a number of circumstances have coluded to create the reason for it eg: my internet broke down, then when that was fixed my computer broke down, then when that broke down we had easter break........ anyway I am back to get up to date. Today I have been given some actual task to do, I have been ask to help a dear old lady with the use of a mouse, it would appear she was taking a FAS course in computers but having trouble getting the hang of using the mouse, a task most of us take for granted. Bless this lady had cataracts in one eye at least and her hands were arthritic but that was not stopping her, my job was to hopefully help her with whatever problems she was having at grasping the mouse, or at least the use of it. I soon realised that all she needed was for someone to spend a little time and patience with going over things slowly, so I found an exercise for helping to use a mouse on the internet, and proceeded to go go through it with her at her own pace. I actualluy took great pleasure in seeing this lady have a sudden realisation when she began to get it right and unsterstand what it was she was doing, to tell the truth I got as big kick out of it as she did. especailly when at the end of the session I printed out a certificate for her to say that she done the work, she was delighted! with that we booked a lesson for her the following week to help her to do emails, and she left with a smile on her face. this was a good morning well spent.

Community Placement

In my second week at the library I wanted to look into what was going on around me, most of what I noticed was of the dedication of the staff doing a service to the public. But underneath that there are issues such are funding for the library, but mostly were the current underlying issues of the dispute that the public sector are now going through, an issue that the library and its staff were now slowly but surely getting themselves embroiled in whether they liked it or not.
 Maybe I may be wrong, but I have to think that it is a little more difficult for  the staff of the library as opposed to the majority of the public sector workers (or at least those that are ensconced in their offices around the country, places and people we never see, and their protest consisting of  mostly not answering the phones never hear), but the staff  at the library are face to face with the public every day, and if the public gets upset with with what is going on, they are there for them to fire at. I hope that this will not happen, it would be scant reward for all the hard work they have put in for the public.
