Ok, first of all I want to say wow.. i had no idea having a blog was a full time job. To all my fans I want to say I am sick right now so I havent really done much of anything, and i apologize for letting my blog go un-updated for for a whole 4 days.

Ok, so up until last week i was working part time helping this lady that has brain damage from a car accident in her house helping her with her house work and taking her shopping and on visitation with her kids. My job was to help her with these goals that she has set for herlself, so that she can continually gain more and more independance. I was supposed to "help" her with her housework. Well she was out of town last monday and me being so nice i went to her apartment anyways and cleaned. I did her sink full of dishes ( no dishwasher) I did her laundry, folded it and put it away in her drawers, i changed and washed her sheets etc.. so basically i was working my butt off for this lady at 6:30 in the morning even though thats not my job. When she gets home she sends me an email listing stuff that she wants me to clean evertime i am at her place(3 times a week).. this list includes wiping down her fridge, picking up after her, cleaning her bathroom, and so on.. stuff that i dont do on a regular basis at my own home. She then had the nerve list things that i didn't do that morning, like pick up her towl in the bathroom that she put on the floor, clean up her crafts that she had left on the floor and clean up after her cat, that when I was hired i was specifically told the cat was her responsibility. In the mean time 2 months have gone on where she has been asleep when i get there or she naps while I'm cleaning, and she has refused to work on her goals. So i emailed her back as nicely as i could finally standuing up for myself telling her that I am not a cleaning lady, and that if thats all she wanted than she could get one for cheaper than me and that does a heck of a lot better cleaning, and that she was going to have to start cleaning with me, that i had no problem cleaning but that I was hired to help her, I told her that we needed to work on her goals cause that is a major part of my job. I was so nice it killed me. She emailed me basically telling me she would not work on anything with me and that she needed me that night but that after than there was no reason to continue. I picked this chick up and she then yelled and screamed at me for what i had emailed her, saying that she shouldn't have to clean, said that I wasn't a good housekeeper, and basically going off and turned from sweetheart brain damage lady to yelling screaming crazy person. She was cursing and waving her arms around while i was driving and seriously scared me. Basically, she was taking advantage of this non-profit organization that I was working for and telling me that I was hired to do everything that she told me to do. So basically, she went crazy and that was the end of it for me. She also forwarded the email i sent her to my boss and she told me that everything I had said was completely appropriate and that she over reacted.. umm yeah she wasnt even there when she flipped! I only took the job in the first place cause I missed helping people, I missed taking care of people like I did in the nursing home.. it certainly wasnt for the $8.25 an hour... come on that was hardly worth dragging my butt out of bed at 6 am.
