work sucks......
I'm in love with my babies, but I don't know how much more I can take of University Daycare.
I don't think I can leave, but for the past two days (three, actually, I'll explain that after I explain this) I have been over ratio. Ratio for 12 to 15 months old is 1 to 6. Tuesday and yesterday I was left with 7 babies by myself and the comment that "Kelly will just have to deal." Funny thing is, state came in on Tuesday and we got yelled at about all sorts of stuff that we were doing wrong, but that same day they left me over ratio. Good thing state didn't come back that afternoon because if they had they would have shut us down. My theory is don't bitch at us for little things that we are doing wrong then leave us over ratio and say that we will just have to deal. That is very unprofessional in my book.
Today I was left out of ratio because Staci told us that ratio is NOW 1 to 5 in my room and in Infant 1. Well this afternoon Infant 1 had 6 babies, so they take one of their babies and bring her to my room, leaving me with 6 babies.
I do too much and put up with too much up there and I don't get paid shit for it. Not even a thank you to acknowledge what I am doing.
I don't know if I'm strong enough to leave, but I will have to find a way to talk to Hope although I know that nothing will change.
I get too stressed out and my school work, among other things are suffering.
Angie (Emma and Elizabeth's mom) told me that I should get on anti-depressants. I'm not sure about it, but it's a thought.
I'm gonna see if I can get some dinner or something and hit the books.
