i've had it with this "assistant." she's about as useful as another special ed kid. i trained her all last week and half of this week so that she would know how to test the kids' hearing in the morning, take notes, and read tests aloud. yesterday i had to take over for the 2nd/3rd grade teacher because she was going on a field trip with 2nd ( Read more... )

i'm beginning to hate librarians as a rule. the girls have summer programs to go to at different libraries in the area. they're all set up differently where babysitters/parents are concerned. some of them make you stay, and some kick you out. however...at every one we've been to, there have been bitchy librarians. they weren't signed up for ( Read more... )
