Inevitable Question 8c:
Tell us something about your resume?
In short: My resume is just UNBEARABLE!!!
I’ve had a very rough past. When I was young, my three-year old brother died of unknown causes. I’ve had a lot of problems dealing with the loss over the years. To make things worse, I have bipolar disorder, which I could never control.
I attended public school for a while, then I became home-schooled at the age of 15. I went to a boarding school in North Carolina for five months then came back to home schooling later that year. I was hospitalized at Rush Children’s Hospital’s psychiatric unit in Chicago. I could no longer deal with the loss of my brother or my bipolar disorder.
When I got released from the hospital I started a new home school program and graduated high school at the age of 16 with a 3.7 GPA. It felt great to graduate, and I felt a lot of pride in myself. After finishing high school, I went to South Valley Community College and graduated from the CNA program. Things were going well for a while, but then at the age of 17, I was sent to another hospital, the Streamwood Behavioral Health Center in Chicago.
After returning from there, I started dealing with a lot of issues from my disorder and I couldn’t concentrate on any one thing. At this time, I had a job as a CNA and lost it due to poor attendance. I started seeing a Department of Rehabilitation Services (DRS) counselor and worked with her on getting my life turned around.
After working with DRS, I applied to Goodwill Industries of Northern Illinois’ “Let’s Go To Work” program, a supportive work program that helps individuals with barriers gain valuable work experience and training. I worked in the back sorting and hanging clothes. I was very excited about this opportunity because I knew I would need to work in order to get better.
I was hired in June 2013, and worked with my job coach on my work skills. After a few months of working in the “Let’s Go To Work” program, there was a job opening for a cashier’s position at Goodwill. My job coach and I worked on the application together, and I was called for an interview.
A few days later I was offered the job, and found out I would be getting more hours. I was very excited for this opportunity, and I know without the help and support of my job coach in Goodwill I would have never been able to move into a competitive job. I love working for Goodwill and I would like to thank them for giving me a second chance.

Inevitable Question 9B:
What are your weaknesses?
I guess I might have to work on my status as a water cooler wallflower!?!

Inevitable Question 19e:
What did your previous employer think of you?
My last boss called me a FLEXIBLE bridge-builder with CHEERboobs!
The surgeons said I was extremely lucky to be alive. I didn’t feel lucky.
My troubles began in February 2006 when I was assaulted and stabbed by someone very close to me. I suffered major damage to my right lung and arm. It took many years of physical therapy and a dozen surgeries before I would regain almost complete function in my arm. About a year and a half after the stabbing, at the age of 22, I discovered I had breast cancer. I was very fortunate it was discovered early and the cancer was easily treated with surgery and radiation.
Fast-forward six years.
I had working with the Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) without much success due to my seemingly never-ending health problems. I felt depressed and without much hope. In August of 2012, my counselor from the DOR called me asking if I would be interested in a Work Adjustment Training program through Goodwill ~ Redwood Empire. At first, I was confused—I never thought Goodwill was anything but thrift stores. I was so desperate for work, just to be up, active and doing something, I said yes!
It has been almost a year now that I have been working at Goodwill Industries of the Redwood Empire, and my confidence has never been higher. I truly love coming to work every day. My story has been one of healing and self-discovery, and I feel my coworkers at Goodwill have been behind me, supporting me every step of the way.

It was difficult to see. It was difficult to work. I lost my ability to drive. I lost my independence. The center of my pupil was going, and I finally learned it was an eye condition known as Occular Histoplasmosis. At first it was the right eye, then the left.
After accepting my new condition, I found a support group and learned to read braille. I learned to maneuver my new world with a walking stick. I traveled to Columbus, Ohio, and received my first guide dog, Albert. In due time, I decided I wanted to go back to work.
I came to Goodwill® following 10 years without employment, and joined Goodwill’s® Community Employment Program. A part-time receptionist position opened here at Goodwill, and I applied for and secured the position. Since then, I’ve worked my way ‘up the ladder’ and am now a full-time assistant for the employment services department.
The job doesn’t come without obstacles. I use special technology in order to process the department’s records. Regardless, this is a job I truly enjoy.

This is Magritte's "Hegel's Holiday (Les Vacances de Hegel)" 1958 ... he had in his book collection the works of Hegel and this book says that, "Hegel's dialectical method is in line with Magritte's own DISCIPLINE OF THOUGHT"... Magritte often speaks of "the absolute thought" (which also comes from Hegel) Magritte did experimental research into THE ESSENCE OF VISIBLE THINGS"
