Blog #2 for Field

I actually learned a lot from the Salvation Army.  Being in school and being at my internship taught me how to tolerate people a lot better.  That is my greatest accomplishment because people irritate me.  But I learned that some people have had some really unfortunate things happen to them and they're just looking for some help.  Sitting in on case meetings taught me to look at things in a different way because there is something unique in everyone.  They all had different goals and some are doing it all on their own.  The lives of others changed mine because it taught me to be more tolerable with others, more respectful and more openminded, not everyone is trying to get freebies, but I have ran across some that are.  I hope for the best in all of our residents, I really do, it's hard sometimes to see people in these positions because I never wanted that for anyone but I hope they learned from this experience that there are people and agencies who really want to help them.
