On todays, episode Janay dives into what it is like working as a registered behavior technician. She shares some things that she believes would put other people outside of the field in a coma. This is a very niche job that a lot of people cannot handle so I hope that you are able to take something away even if it is just a laugh! Imagine if you had to track 100+ times you were hit within 3 hours you would be baffled and drained too. Working with the special need's population, especially children, can be challenging but every day is different and exciting! From aggressive behaviors to basic hygiene, to navigating the public. Some things that we pick up on naturally can be difficult for all children such as sarcasm or being able to decide who is an employee based of visual cues.
