"I know how y'all are there, I know you don't really care."
-angry parent upset that I was not taking a report

This is something I hear on a weekly basis. You don't care. Bullshit. If all our calls were not recorded and it wasn't unprofessional, I would go off on these people. Right. I don't care. I have this job because it pays so much money and it's so easy and I don't have to care. I listen to horror stories about abuse and sobbing and screaming and threats eight hours every day five days a week because I don't care. I take between twelve and eighteen calls every day. We'll say I take an average of seventy five calls in each work week. I listen to seventy five different stories and different pleas every week because I don't care. Right.

What the fuck ever.

This day is fired. My car is injured, I have cramps, and I have no cigarettes or lunch and this is all fucking bullshit.

We don't need a full moon to bring the lunatics out around here.

I think they should have to do our job for at least a day before they open their stupid mouths.

We could just switch and take their place making widgets or selling crack or whatever.

I am sorry that someone spewed all that bile on you. *hugs*
