Finding New Aide (not Joanne) Purss Needed

I'm so sorry (though glad you still have Joanne). Good-aide-finding
purrs on the way.

Without any notice!!??? Gosh, even when I've been really peeved at a boss
who did bad things to me for over a year, I still gave notice before
leaving! And someone like a personal aide can't be replaced easily.

that was my first thought

Purrs coming that you find someone nice, competent and dependable!

I'll second those purrs. It really sounds like you needed a
replacement, even if you didn;t know it, so maybe her leaving is a
blessing in disguise.

I'm sorry to hear that. Purrs on the way. I hope you find a new aide that
you get on well with.

Thanks gang, purrs are much appreciated. She quit just before Joanne's
weekend off. Jo' being nice about it. I'm defintely not perfect, but
instead of talking to me she brooded and blew up.

Is it not illegal to quit without two weeks' notice?

Nope, not illegal. Unprofessional, for sure. And in the case where
someone is very dependent on you, as with a personal aide, I think it's
unethical, but there's no law that says you have to be ethical or
professional. Well, unless you've signed a contract, and then you'd
end up in civil court, rather than being charged with a crime.

It's best not to burn bridges. We hired a temp back in the 1980's to do
minor clerical work - stuffing envelopes and so on. It was pretty clear it
wasn't going to be an exciting job, you know? I saw her in the parking lot
on my way out to lunch; told her to to have a nice lunch and she smiled and
waved. And then she just never came back from lunch. We had to call the
agency; what happened to your worker? They didn't know she just walked off
the job half a day into it without voicing a complaint or contacting them.
Wonder how many other jobs she got via that agency?

Lots of purrs for you to find a new aide soon!

Purrs on the way. Sorry things worked out that way. Sometimes,
there's just no reasoning with people.
