I knew you would really "get this" because you live with it too. And good workers are hard to find. But I have always known that Familiarity Breeds Contempt. And if my workers could just do their job and go home - we would not have the problem we do. J is the type of person who needs to get familiar with the other workers. She arranges "Play Dates" with them when she is with another client that Ryan likes and then they have time to gossip and diss the agency and probably me. She also texts the others and it was this chatting between them that has caused the dissension.
I really need to nip this in the bud but the timing is just terrible. I will have a talk with the agency on Tuesday (travelling on Monday) and let them in on some of my concerns. But I am going to have to do what is best for Ryan and for myself and keep her on until I get back unless she quits and then we will have to deal with it.
I keep playing Wed over and over in my mind and none of it makes any sense. Nor does L leaving. It was all over me asking for a text each day to see how Ryan is doing.
