Weird Day

So far, weird day.

This morning at one of my jobs, a mother stopped in to say she wanted to be with her son while he had an appointment. Mind you, a college-age guy whose appointment was already half over. The mother became hostile and finally said that he has learning disabilities. So she got to sit in with him.

Then I get a call from a man who isn't and never was a student of the college I work for, but he wants help because he doesn't have internet and if I could look up body removal or mortuary transport services and get a number for him that would be great. I explained we help students with resumes, cover letters and job searching, but I'd give it a try. I couldn't find a number for him and I was thoroughly creeped out. Thankfully, the phone call ended soon after.

Next up: tutoring elementary-age Baltimore city school kids. Yesterday, out of four students, two threw their books to the floor and a third gyrated against a computer. ALL mouthed off.

This day should continue to be interesting.

And I have the Top Chef finale to look forward to tonight!
