Sitting at work, actually bored. I've been on the computer doing nothing so much today that my index finger hurts from scrolling/clicking.
Work has a new rule to do a rounds check at 3am. I am choosing not to participate. I see no reason to wake up each resident to prove they're here. Because I know they are. I understand other staff are having issues with residents sneaking out, but they know what time rounds is anyway, so if they really wanted to not get caught, they'd leave AFTER rounds. It's not my job to keep anyone here unless they have a specific order to stay here. We were trained to have them stay here, as they do VOLUNTARILY. If they're going to sneak out to do crack, what am I gonna do, tie them down? Most of the time the clients leave out the back door anyway vs. sneaking out of their rooms (they live on the second floor so how would they get back?). Which, AGAIN, I have no idea how that could occur. There's a huge bay window to the right of me that can see both exits. How do you miss a client leaving?! According to some clients, rumor has it some staff fall asleep on overnights. The only time I'm unsure if a client is here is when the staff before me is unsure a client is here.
I'm thinking I'm going to knit myself a new purse, tote-style, themed with Totoro. It'll be cute and give me something to do here on weekends!
I'm uncharacteristically tired. But I did make myself a delicious meal of pork ramen with bean sprouts, red/orange/yellow pepper slices, and rice with a little curry powder sprinkled on top. Yum.
Looks like I'ma watch Kung-Fu Panda. I love that movie.
Oh, and I finally beat Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia. It was so good! I enjoyed it very much.
