I work at The Little Gym where I teach gymnastics classes, sports skills classes, and dance classes.
We also do birthday parties on the weekend... TOTALLY worth it! They are so much fun.
I Highly recommend everyone at least once take their child up to at least take a trial class... they are free and you can find out if its something your kids are interested in. We start at 4 months old (parent child classes) and go all the way up to the age of 12.
Anyways, that is not why my title is called "Really???"
Well, today I worked 3 classes (pre-k dance, pre-k gymnastics, and grade school) I also worked 2 birthday parties.
I LOVE my job.... I love the people I work with and the kids and the parents.
Today, during my last b-day party we had a child throw-up... that does not bother me, it happens. That is my job to clean it up, so I did and tried not to vomit myself (just thinking about it makes my throat feel choked up).
The parent of this child did not once say "sorry" or even try and help me clean up. I understand it was my job but they sat there and watched me clean while kids are trying eat around where I am cleaning.
But not even saying "sorry?" It Irked me a little. Would that bother you or not? Just curious.
Other then that it was a GREAT day and I even made some extra money in tips from the party!
Please, Please, Please contact us one day and we would LOVE to have you visit our gym... it is SO much FUN!!!!

It would have totally bothered me too. I was waiting on a table while I was PREGNANT and always sick lol. And was already mad that the parent had the kid out. She told me he had just went to the Dr and was sick. THEN WHY TAKE HIM OUT TO EAT!!!! Well the kid ate and then threw up all over the table. It is so NOT my job to clean it up, and I was not going to. So the lady sat there coved the puke with napkins and waited on me to clean it. I just didnt go back so she ate with puke on the table and got up and left. I didnt care if it cost me my tip, or got me suspended. What about my other tables, do they want to watch the lady bringing them food clean up puke, plus I would have done it myself while I was pregnant and maybe even if I wasnt!
ReplyDeleteSo keep your tips I say, and clean up your childs puke, or at least act like you are going to help.
