Chaos in Learning Places

Learning Places

Man it's been crazy these last three weeks. Everybody's doing something wrong. The teens are getting into it with the supervisors & each other. See we feel that the supervisors aren't listening to us when we talk to them. They say they are listening but i think they listen but then later forget what we say like it isn't important. We've done all sorts of things to become a better group. It's like this when we go over the investigations for the sites sometimes they don't go with the kids at the sites and we try to explain to them that it's not going to work but they don't listen sometimes. On the other hand the supervisors feel that some of us aren't working. So now they're trying to give us things to do. I agree that sometimes some of us don't work when we are supposed to. I think that if the supervisors start listening to the teens they'll start working harder but if they don't start soon this will be a long boring & horrible summer for everyone.

Just to let everyone know, this doesn't affect our work at the sites. We still go hard and do what we're supposed to with the kids.

I hope that next week is a lot better

Have a nice weekend & a fun 4th of july Cool

Hi Aaron,

I'm glad to know you feel safe in making such honest comments about staff.  It's been a week since you wrote this about listening.  Has anything changed?  I've been there a few days and know I have my opinion, but I'd like to know yours.  How do you feel now that it's a week later?

Aaron, We're going to do our best to listen to you guys, I think we've been doing a decent job of it lately, and especially to you older teens. Keep in mind that we're trying, we may mistakes but we're going to do our best, but if we can do anything else to help you guys out, let us know.
