Well, yesterday went well. Had a meeting with the owner of the business and my trainer yesterday. Upshot was, that the owner was happy with me..and no matter how much she tried to bag me, he wouldnt let her. He realised I was thrown in the deepend at one of the busiest times they have ever had. He also realised that I am a team player and will prioritise the things that actually increase sales first. He also said that a job is mine at the end of the 4 month period no matter what the girl coming back from Maternity leave decides. All is good. Only complaint they had was that I needed to communicate more....lol, so I am making a concerted effort to flood her email box.
Today I work at the supermarket for a while, got so much to do there to finish off, so will be working a fair bit on the weekend. Thems the breaks.
Its suprising though that I am handling this week better than I expected. Its amazing what you can do if you set your mind to it.
On another note....how to teach a teenage boy about personal hygene lmao. Turns out he has been wearing the same shirt for the last week. He got into the car with Steve yesterday morning and Steve said he just about threw up with the smell. Its not that there werent clean shirts...there was, he just didnt ask me where they were.
Stef has been good. We gave her huge doses of laxatives over the weekend and they didnt start working until Monday much to the disgust of Barwon Valley School teacher...bad luck to them I say. They tried to tell me that she was sick on Monday....I said...no she isnt and I am not taking second Monday off work to make their life easy. Nothing I can do if the drugs take so long....sometimes its quick, 8 hours, other times it takes 2-3 doses to get her to go. Just one of those things we deal with.
I have a bit of a gripe about schools at the moment. For some reason, because you have special needs kids, they think that you dont work and schedule meetings when it is convenient to them with little regard of work committments of parents. Jacks PSG meeting was booked for 11 am next Wednesday and Stefs for 12pm Thursday. No way I can make either of these times. They just cant get into their heads that with 3 autistic kids, I have to schedule 4 20 minute psg meetings a term and cant take a day off for each bloody one. I will try to do them over the phone maybe.
Having a bit of a laugh at my stupid cat. She is rolling around the floor inside my shopping bag....crazy thing. She really is so playful first thing in the morning. She is a beautiful cat, very affectionate to everyone in the house except Melinda. Melinda is a kid that just has to cuddle animals, and the cat hates it...the rest of us the cat just smooges up to but not Melinda. The cat hates her....and chases her up the hall trying to jump on her. lol....Melinda is a bit like Daria on Finding Nemo....Just loves animals to death.
I called my niece last week finally. Lol, she had twin girls in March, born a little prem, so they were still in hospital when she had come home for about 4 weeks. Everytime I tried to ring, the phone was off the hook or turned off. I finally caught up to her which was great. I really must get around to buying the beautiful girls their presents. They are so cute...just like little newborn dolls. Thank goodness for facebook....it really keeps me in touch with my beautiful nieces and I hear about their everyday stuff. Even my mum likes it as I pass on the snippets and show her the photos. There are good points about this whole computer thing.
Anyway, its 5.20am, time to hit the housework for the day....
