Reply to comment by Wtfisgoinonhere in I worked at Manch DCYF. AMA by twawawayyy

A mom of a newborn manhandled by MPD, her face squashed against the hood of my car while the handcuffed her, as I held the baby they tricked her into handing them. A week later they court found she did no wrong and sent the baby back.

Two workers administered CPR to a stranger who OD'd on the street on their lunch break. Supervisors wouldn't let them take the rest of the day off.

Being accused of being a theif and a murderer every day.

Booze bottles found in the office restroom by some poor burned out worker.

Toddlers telling me what their mommy made them do for the camera.

Supervisors laughing and shrugging when I begged not to be given another case.

The director making a domestic abuser second in command.

Workers lives, marriages, families falling apart.

Ugh 😫 that's so intense. I used to work with an agency that contracted us to do some of VT DCF's work. It was a lot. I got burned out pretty quickly from just all the traumatic things happenings and the crazy politics. I do not miss the job.

This answer actually made me tear up. Thank you for doing what you do because I know I could never handle it.

Hmm. You should mention that during that week the baby was in foster care, the foster parents totaled their car with that newborn that shouldnt have been there in the first place in it.. and then the division lied about the accident for.. well for many years. But you know it happened right?

No, dude. They just forgot to tell you. There was no conspiracy.

They are terrible. It's interesting that you've interpreted my comments as being positive. I'm not gonna argue specifics.
