Coming back to work - vent

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

This is day 3 for me. ... I have spent the last 3 days telling customers "I'm sorry, Give me time and I will fix the problems."  Theyve been telling me all that went wrong and why is it so hard to get thier stuff right.
And they ALL say the same thing - we didn't like your temp.
Everyday its been a hunt to find what she missed or just plain didn't want/feel like doing. I didn't leave her w/hard work todo. It was all easy... Like check the VM and relay all the messages. HOW FREAKING HARD IS THAT??? I made very good notes on everything w/pictures and she seemed to have screwed that up too.
I feel like I'm on an easter egg hunt trying to find things that aren't in the correct spot.
She was to busy texting/web surfing & chatting up the shop guys to work.
Now I have to fix 6 weeks of work.....
I'm already exhausted and its only day 3.

I feel horrible that I have to leave my LO w/a stranger all day. I don't think 5 hours at night is enough time w/her.

Sorry I needed to vent...

Thanks for reading.

    That sucks. I'm sorry you're dealing with a mess at work. Thankfully my replacement while I was on leave did a great job... but that's not usually the case & is why I almost NEVER take vacations -- it's not worth the headache when you get back to a disaster at the office. Yuck!

    I hope you get everything in order easily. Try not to stress. I know I'd be going bonkers too.

    And you'll find ways to have plenty of quality time with your LO. I work all day too & I have the BEST time with DS in the evenings. I feel like he gets the absolute best of me too since I'm so committed to making the time that we do have together so special.

    Good luck!

    As if the transition back to work isn't hard enough, the last thing you need is to fix someone else's f-ups.  So sorry!  Hope it gets easier!

    Sorry!! I know all too well how much I hate cleaning up after someone else. I go back in three more weeks and I can not really decide if its a good thing or bad thing. I am just glad they got rid of my sorry orientee I had before I stopped working because she was still going to be orienting when I got back and then she would be placed with me again. It will get better.

    That sucks. I have to go back in a week and a half and am so not looking forward to catching back up. They did not hire a temp while I was out, stuff either waited for me or someone else in my department covered for me. I am imagining a huge mess when I get back. :-(
