I grew up and lived in Berkeley/Oakland from 1983-1999 and again from 2009-2017, and you NAILED it. which reminds me, I miss you. "Let's pencil something in for..." LMAO
I was an Activities Director in the 90s for places in SF proper, Palo Alto, and Oakland. It was so rewarding and I have so many great memories! As I went up the chain of success, getting various licenses I moved further away from direct work with the seniors and ended up burning out. Also it is a much more fun job than being a CNA so unless CNA work pays more, sticking with Activities!
Walking around and saying hello at a senior residence is super important!
I am astounded, Danny!
I hope there's a post about Bingo jokes coming!
Congrats on your new job! So happy for you!!

As a former activities assistant, I would very much like to read your thoughts on Bingo Best Practices.
