Jordon Pederson said we essentially have economic stratification due to low IQ of 10 – 25% of our population. It was deeply troubling to him that they find effective work. It is troublesome but I believe low status is temporary, we can overcome this with support and we provide 1) a release valve for overworked […]

Only 2 Percent Of Mentally Ill Find Good Work
My search term was ‘how many with mental illness find good jobs’ and this US statistic came up. 2 PERCENT!!! Let me place no blame. Companies earn money for the earnest owner and every employee that works with them. They are in competition with other companies. Big leagues are not the place for people with […]
Mini Vacay. Furniture refinishing for Auction. And a little parallel trade training.
Hi Everyone. Good week so far, flooring training since painting was slow, but furniture painting as well. We will be auctioning these off with an option to distress and/or add a gloss finish. My 25th anniversary was on October 12th. Very busy with students but had to show them to take breaks as well. Cheers.

My team of Painters disabled yes but supremely diligent, finished another job yesterday…

Youth’s Great Disabler
Today two big things about mental health… 1. Sometimes we cannot pinpoint what is wrong and when it is happening. Which…2. Leaves time taking its sweet old pace and why it is called youth’s great disabler. That said we manage these issues when we teach you to paint for a living. Earn more in less […]
Empathy is the Way
Today we discuss empathy. Not because it’s the hot topic of the week, but b/c it lets you learn very quickly. I just read autism in heels by Jennifer Cook O’Toole. She was always straight A’s and super accomplished but had some serious weaknesses. It is amazing. Thank-you Jennifer. Brain issues all have so many […]
