The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

... so I am at work. My individual wants me to wash a new shirt she got today, so that she can wear it again tomorrow to show her family. I told her, as I have told her in the past, that I will not go into the basement on my own. She wants me to do this while she sleeps. I told her, Day Shift Staff can get it done before she leaves tomorrow. 7am to 2pm is MORE than enough time to wash and dry her new shirt. She freaks out, why can't I just go in the basement. I said I wasn't comfortable going in the basement overnight on my own. I have a phobia of basements because of a previous trauma. She says, "Well then why did I have to do social studies in school because the pictures terrified me". She had a phobia of pictures that are in black and white. I said, it's not the same thing. She said well then you should just do it. I had to tell her WHY I didn't like being in basements on my own. She still doesn't get it, and now she knows about one of my traumas and will probably use it against me in the future or tell other staff members about it.

Upset is such an understatement. Now, she won't let me have a minute to myself to kind of recompose. I have to jump up and go to her room to watch some stupid thing on tv that I won't be able to focus on because now my mind is reliving every fucking moment of something I have been able to keep out of my mind for a little while. Thanks for ruining my new years.

So, my client got upset tonight over something her Staff did that worked here before I started. Apparently they messed up and made a mess in one of her cabinets and she was upset. I was counting meds, so I was trying to tell her to give me five minutes to finish and she was NOT having that. It needed to be cleaned RIGHT THEN. She began yelling at me and I kept asking her not to. Made it worse that she thinks it's okay to be in her t-shirt and underwear and when I asked her to put some pants on it's always "It's my house" shit. Well, I have no choice but to be at this house and I am uncomfortable with you having no damned pants on. I think I am going to bring that up to management and maybe put it in her plan that she HAS to have atleast pants/shorts and a shirt on at all times. It's inappropriate.

I am just tired of being yelled at for things others do, and when I try and explain that I had nothing to do with that, she just keeps talking over me til I get frustrated. Now we're both mad. She gets over it faster than I do because she doesn't think she did anything wrong. I am still upset so I am sitting in the office and she's mad cause I don't want to go watch The Good Doctor with her. Well, I need some space.
