Hmmmm let's see... I've been doing this for sooooooooooooo o long now and yes it's a career not a job. I enjoy working w/ the population I'm serving, work load is manageable/not stressful, got nice office windows w/ sunlight coming through, my own little space where I can listen to music - make the work day relax and peaceful, supervisor don't monitored every step, and pay & benefits are fine.
