I remember Ms. Crow and always liked her. For some reason she struck me as giving a damn. I really should remember Ms. Byrd but I don't. I do remember this, Ms. Milnachuk used to always scare the shit out of me. No idea why as she never confronted me.

Yes, there was always a VERY high relaspe rate for staff member. I can even remember rumors of staff members using drugs and leading raps at the same time. I remember a parent telling me that I didn't want to be on staff once because to many of them relasped.

Dude, I was knocking down $250+ a week with no bills..., and I still worked outside.

I guarantee you we made that much at the car wash, dude. Minimum wage for 8 hours a day plus $20 - $30 a day in tips. On a good day some guys could make 50 bucks in tips alone. Ask anyone who worked there.

Not knocking your job, but the car wash was a good job for a phaser.

Clay,

I liked Mrs. Crow too, at first.  Since leaving, though, I've realized that she was probably only around as a "good cop" to Dennis Buttimer's "bad cop."   I vividly remember her coming into my intake to soften me up after Buttimer had reemed me out because my "corneas were cloudy," which he took as evidence of a lot of pot use.  The fact that I was there voluntarily (Forgive me: I was young and naive) made no difference: nothing I said could be trusted.

Any way, Ann Crow kneeling at my feet, touching my knee gently, and telling me softly to "just try to cooperate" took the edge off my defenses for when Buttimer and the oldcomers heaped on the accusations.  It was very effective.
