Personally it seems impossible to stay long term in a job where being Presence at least some of the time is not possible ie in places where there is a lot of conflict and unconsciousness going on I would be interested to hear of other peoples experience ? Has anyone lost there job because they were Present! hahah not the usual reason for getting fired but Ive noticed it does make some people a little "uncomfortable" and Im not sure why.
