My mom Tina works for The Lucas County Board of Development Disabilities. She is a Habilitation Specialist and works with mentally and physically handicapped adults. She writes goals for them and works with them to help them become more independent. To get this job, my mom had to have a Bachelors in Special Education and Social Work. She graduated from The University of Toledo and Bowling Green. Getting up in the morning can sometimes be an issue for my mom because it is at the same time my brothers and I get up for school and so she has to help my brothers get ready. She has to make sure my brothers eat breakfast and get on the bus. When asked about what she thinks about her job and getting up in the morning my mom answered, "I don't love it, but I enjoy it. I like the clients I work with but not really the staff."

My dad Jeff works for a software program called Great Lakes Cam. He is a Software Technician who travels all around Michigan teaching classes and training people on how to use certain software and file programs. Sometimes my dad works from home on his laptop, and spends a lot of time on it. Other times he will be gone for a day or two because he has to go to Traverse City or Chelsea and sometimes even Lansing. A two-year associates degree specialized in Drafting and Design is needed to qualify for this job. When asked about what he thinks about his job my dad answered, "I like my job. Not so much the training but I like the staff and things I get to do." Getting up early in the morning isn't something my dad really worries about because most of the time he works from home and can sleep in.
