Okay, I am mad! This is totally ridiculous. you have a job working with special needs kids, and you call off 2 times in your first 10 days working with the kid! then you don't answer the phone, and don't return the phone call when I leave a message.

I also have cought you in a lie, but you don't know it yet. you would if you would have returned my call tho.

You are working with my son, so if you want to keep your job you need to follow certain rules.

First DO NOT LIE TO ME!!!!  There is no excuse for that! If you can't tell me why you can't be at work or something, simply say "It's personal" and I won't pry. we all need our privacy.

Second, If you are scheduled to work, show up, and if you can't it is me you need to call. I should not receive a call from someone else saying that you called them to say that you couldn't work with my son. It's my kid, so it is me who has to make alternative plans and explain to him why his day is not going to be the way it is expected to be, so call ME when you can't make it.

Third, If I call you, it is probably important, so please CALL ME BACK!!!!! And yes, you job may depend on you returning my call from now on, because I am sick of hearing from everyone else on what your plans are on coming in to work, and which days you can actually work. You are supposed to work on a schedule that best suits my son, not my son doing what best fits into your schedule. After all, who is the one getting paid here?

Yes I am pissed off, and you can guess why!!!

There's no reason to be so disrespectful.  If they had a conflict, or don't feel like they're the best person for your son, they should have the courage to talk with you, straightforward and honestly.  Sounds like they're not worth your time or your son's!

Best of luck to you in finding that one special person who will help your son reach his fullest potential!  I have a special needs child, too, and I know that there's nothing more rewarding than watching them succeed.

Big hugs to you and him!
