On February 27, I posted about difficult child getting offered her old job back. She had worked for a few weeks over the summer, for whatever reason it didn't go well and she stopped working. Then out of the blue, the boss called and asked her to come back...
And now it looks like the job is over. Again.
I'm not sure what happened. Last week, I had absolutely gushed over her, telling her how proud I was about how responsible she was handling this job. And she came back with "Well, I have to warn you - I think I'm getting fired."
Since she works the after school shift, she is largely responsible for cleaning up. Tables wiped, floors swept, trash taken out (that sort of thing) plus refilling and restocking supplies for the next morning. difficult child says the boss has been mad at her because she keeps "forgetting" and "can't remember"...
Yesterday, she came home from work and said nothing. Didn't seem the slightest bit upset (very UN-difficult child like). I asked her when she was working next and she says the boss is mad at her so she is not going to be scheduled any more. She's not 'fired'....he just said he's not putting up with it any more....and that's that.
What? What does that mean?
Well, that was all the explanation she came up with. "He's not putting up with it any more".
But she says she'll call him later in the week and see if she is scheduled for the weekend...
This is another one of those times I'd like to be a fly on the wall to see what really happened. The difficult child version of things always leaves me confused.
I think she is out of a job - but intends to humor me for awhile by telling me she's calling to check the schedule.
