I guess I didn't make myself clear. I had to go to Little Rock yesterday to visit "Miss Congeniality." She's the client from hell. She is also pregnant, due next month. Think "spawn of Rosemary's baby). Anyway, her son that is with her there is 6, and she doesn't like me, or anyone else, talking to him without her around. I guess she's afraid of what he might reveal. Like I said, she's very paranoid.

Since I had to go anyway, I decided to kill two birds with one stone and I took another of my clients with me. She had her baby in Little Rock because she was high risk. The baby was 6 weeks premature. The mom got out last Sunday, and the baby will have to stay until she gains enough weight to be released, but it isn't easy for her to get to Little Rock very often. She doesn't drive and her husband works. So anyway, I got to see the little darling. One of the prettiest, most perfect babies I've ever seen, and very healthy. And she smiles, almost laughs. She is just a delightful baby. I left that mom at the hospital while I went to deal with Miss Congeniality. I saw her son when he first got there from school and talked to him awhile. His mom is p*ssy about everything. It is just ingrained in her personality. She is one of those people you just want to pop upside the head on general principles.

The dingbat is the coworker. She was hired as a county supervisor, but was quickly demoted, but because the probationary period passed, they can't get rid of her easily. She still fancies herself above most of the jobs the rest of us do....the jobs that she was hired to supervise. She had no experience, but she had a master's degree. I've often wondered if it was a mail order one. Anyway, everyone who has to deal with her wants her gone. She is a serious liability, in more ways than one. Her supervisor knows that, but her butt is on the line, too, so she has to make sure she covers all the legal bases before she tries to get rid of her, so we're all having to spend a lot of time documenting examples of her incompetence, and believe me, there are plenty of examples to document. So there is that, in addition to "helping" her do her job (which, in reality, means doing it for her), fixing her screw ups AND covering our own butts (as a team) because our reputation is on the line.....and doing our own jobs!
