I seriously just had a parent call

Hi JIll, I wanted to talk to you about our vacation plans, can you meet me for lunch around noon today?


HUH????
I said,..
I can't leave the house Tara, the kids would be alone. She says,.. well how do you eat? do you not take a lunch?

I said,. no,.. I fix food here, I do not get breaks,... from 5 am to 6 pm I never leave the kids,.. she says,.. wow, I didnt know that, I couldnt do it, I have to have a break.


honestly,.. she knows Im the only one here, I dont have a helper, lol sometimes I am generally concerned how these people function through the day without help.

Ha ha! Sometime I wish parents would sit and watch what we do throughout the day...then they'd have a whole new understanding!!

Are you kidding me? At first I thought she meant that she wanted to come to you at lunch time but then as I read on I see she really did want you to leave the house!

I just have no words to say how dumb that sounds to ask a care giver to leave at lunch time! What did she think?

THis is too funny!!!!
I always say parents that bitch about everything, or the smallest things, should do daycare themselves for one yr. and see how they manage everything!!! Their thinking would change in a hurry!!!LOL!!!!!!!

Had it been me, I'd have asked her to meet me at "Greta's Lunch Counter", and see if she caught on.

I also think it's funny that she thinks her vacation is worth a lunch hour to discuss.
