So once again, work has been crazy...we are pathetically short of drivers for the last two weeks of school. Nor do our existing drivers seem to be capable of showing up or giving advance notice of things like doctor's appointments which may impact their ability to show up for work.
So on Friday, I ended up driving parts of three separate routes. Not at all what I wanted to do, mind you, but it had to be done. And then one of my standbys took the WRONG book and did the WRONG route, and a kid ended up standing in the rain until 1pm, when he was picked up by the police. Can you just hear the fun going on?
I think I want out of all of this. But I don't know what to replace it with. I just don't know. On the other hand, I'd miss torturing the mechanics...bending their perceptions of what is real is the most fun part of my job. But I'm tired of always being stressed and tired.
But on still another hand...before I get all woeful about my life, here's a very silly haiku about perceptions vs. reality. :-)
Sitting and typing,
Then Freya leaps on my back
I'm just a cat toy.
