The Ward Employment Specialist

This week's gag is featured in the July New Era.

I imagine the calling of ward employment specialist would be one of the most difficult assignments you could get (and, no, this isn't some reverse psychology thing where secretly I want this calling--I really think it would be tough). Most of the time, the employment specialist knows nothing more than anyone else about finding a job (and in this economy, is probably just as worried as anyone else about keeping his or her job), has to struggle with constant feelings of inadequacy, and has to fret over the employment status of his or her friends and neighbors .

Of course, this all gets exponentially harder if on top of all of that, the employment specialist has to find babysitting jobs for half of the primary.
