Yep! I sure didn't sleep all night. When she I asked her to guarantee she'd be in in the morning she replied "of course - my car is in your driveway!" Unbelievable! Overnight girl texted me at 1 AM that she was finally home. She had left for my house at 7 PM.
But my talks with the agency went well today, josh & I feel that with them working 12 hour shifts (J really pushed for this - me - not so much) that they then don't have any flexibility to stay extra when needed. There is another worker we could hire for shorter shifts but he is a smoker & can't go 12 hours without smoking. (We don't allow smoking at our home, in our van or around Ryan). j & T quit smoking to take the job.
The agency was aware there were problems with J but that we & Ryan liked her (she really has been good up til now). They also said she is not our only option & they think her time with us is about done. I asked them not to do anything until we were covered with enough staff & we would all talk it through. With this type of worker - there will be repercussions. We need to head that off at the pass. I know I ignored too many signs for too long.
And my builder is asking for more $ for Ryan's Reno. The budget & estimate were $25,000 to $35,000. I've now spend $39,600. Apparently that price does not include the windows & doors, siding, sidewalk heating or bricks as none of that has been paid for. I just paid an unexpected bill for the excavation & concrete that I thought the builder was laying of 7,300 and now he wants another $10,000 that I really don't have. I've emailed him today & tried to ohone to see what we can work out but to tell you the truth - I just don't know what to do.
And my brakes are being replaced as we speak to a tune of $750! Nice day, huh?
