I had just a few appointments today, so thought it would be leisurely day of checking email and making few personal calls. But Monday struck with a vengeance. I had a mom in tears about her daughter running away (who claims mom kicked her out and only wants to steal her baby), call from a parent whose daughter was admitted to a psych ward, a student whose dad beat him up last night, and a parent requesting a 504 plan to make college easier. I managed to get it all handled today. No sweat.
Then left work early to visit the student at the psych place. I drove out of my way, parked, checked into 3 buildings to get a visitor badge. Then I got told I wasn't on the visitor list (parent said he would add me) and it wasn't visiting hours (I arrived specifically at the hour the parent told me to come since he wasn't planning to visit his daughter at all this week). I got sent away.
Parents are my least favorite demographic today. My favorite demographic is big Pacific Islander counseling mentor. The guy I interned for in Monument came to my rescue today with good job leads! Hope your weeks are off to an entirely promising start.
