Andrew is a QIDP working in group homes and residential facilities in Asheville, NC. Andrew talks about America&#39;s disturbing history of its treatment of individuals with intellectual disabilities; the job stress of facing harsh, bureaucratic systems; the myth of the &#34;dream job,&#34; and the day to day reality of caring for the most vulnerable within a fiercely individualistic society.CW: rape, sexual abuseProducer: Robin LandyFollow @90000hrspod on InstagramEmail: ninetythousandhourspod@gmail.comIntro: &#34;Crossing The Line&#34; - Eric Andrew KuhnUnderscore: &#34;Ocean Island Town,&#34; &#34;Noise,&#34; &#34;Looking Back&#34; - Eric Andrew Kuhn&#34;Fit or a Fever&#34; - Silian Railhttps://www.ericandrewkuhn.comhttps://silianrail.bandcamp.comSupport the show at https://www.patreon.com/90000hourspod Support this podcast at — <a rel='payment' href='https://redcircle.com/90-000-hours/donations'>https://redcircle.com/90-000-hours/donations</a>

90,000 Hours is a podcast exploring how people really feel about what they do. Loosely inspired by Studs Terkel&#39;s seminal 1974 book &#34;Working,&#34; 90,000 Hours peers into a diverse cross section of working lives to reveal how most jobs differ from what you&#39;d imagine; the complexities lurking in the day-to-day; and ultimately, the unexpected ways that work unites us in the human experience.Beautifully paced and edited into a first person narrative style with musical textures, this &#34;podcast about working&#34; ends up being about more than just work, including common themes such as separation of self-worth from our occupations, labor politics, imposter syndrome, and so much more.
