Frustrated

Honestly! Some days, if Effort equals Outcomes, I’d have billions and gold medals. If I could be rewarded for people wasting my fucking time. I would OWN my suburb, because I would put it into real estate. But alas, I cannot.

But I’ve spent all day before, going to my one appointment trying to have either of my two carer genies to cover my PC shift tomorrow. (PC – Personal Care)

I cannot tell you how many times I had to touch on this issue to solve it and it’s all so I can get to my last Chiropractors appointment before she goes away for a month. So, when I say I’ll shop part of the shift to my other agency, it doesn’t absolve the first agency of the responsibility to cover it until the other agency has:
A. Responded to my requests.
B. Covered the shift.

It doesn’t stop one agency telling me they thought the other had it covered when I very specifically communicate the other has received my request and will work on it. So, multiple methods and even people at the same agency will be contacted or attempted.

Eventually, I generally miss out because they might prioritise training over covering a shift. Which I get, however you can train your staff as much as you like, but you don’t cover clients shifts. You lose clients.

So, it’s any wonder I return home and do a few of my other efforts to remain independent before my brain and my body has had enough and I melt into my couch and become a vegetable on the couch.

This is one of those days I don’t know how Meme Queen is going to brighten this post.
