Re:New summer job
So i've been back from the camping shit since tues. and in between that time i was offered this job at a Day Camp in Brooklyn.I started working as a counsler since last wensday
and it has been very.....energy consuming.I watch 19 7yr. old
boys for about 5-6 hours a day and in just those first three
days it was crazy.
I do love working with kids but 19!I only have this other JC to help me and he's 16 and it's his first time aswell working
in a camp.I just hope that i can pull through this summer with this kind of pressure on me.
The 2nd day that i was there we had gone on a trip to a an outdoor Fair , with rides and a circus (the whole 9 yards) and it was at the Meadowlands Arena,so we left camp at like 10am (but they had left without me because i had gotten out of the bus when one of the boy's drinks had exploded inside
his bag and i went inside to wash it off,so i had to score a
lift with 1 of the execs.)when we got there they told us that we were just supposed to watch these kids for 6 hrs. and i was going crazy at just the thought of having to keep these guys together in such a large area..so i just threw half of them away.The ones that i kept were easy to keep control of just cause they got along and followed me.
I'm not going to go into every aspect & detail of that day but all I can say is that it was something that I had tried to do before....(Watching that many kids at the same time).
I am going back on monday to talk 'bout the money (hopfully i'll be able to get alot) and contract signing.I''l try to enter a post before tues. and for the people that live in N.Y. and read this sundays fireworks are supposed to be hot,watch it if you can.
Later Dudes ...and Dudettes ;)
