"It's Not Fair!"

Stupid, STUPID co-workers!!! Now, don't get me wrong...I love them all. I consider most of them friends of mine. But COME ON!

We've had to put a "your cell phone use is in jeopardy" letter out, because writing it in our policy book and reviewing it in person is just not enough. Apparently, we're supposed to pay people to chat and flirt and text on the phone all freaking day long. And then they get all pissy when you tell them to get off. Use your phone on a break! Use your phone during nap time all you freaking want to! But when your job is to supervise children, then DO IT! I don't give a fuck that you're flirting with your new dreamy boyfriend. I don't care about the "I'm just checking the time" excuse, or the "I'm expecting a call from my doctor" excuse. I have never turned down a phone call for someone who calls on the business line.

Now, my real friends understand this. They will do the right thing because they know I'm not picking on them. Because they know I'm just trying to do my job. Because they are my friends and want to do a good job for me. For those of you...THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Thank you for understanding what my job is. I'm pretty easy going...come on now!

We're not allowed to have our cell phones out either. "It's hard to take a kids cell phone away from them (per school rules) if you turn around and talk on your own in front of them."

Calls just have to come in on the land line... or send an email!
