R.I.P. Missy

When I went to my mom’s house on Sunday to help her with something and to clip her cats nails I noticed her cat Missy was drooling really bad so I told my mom she might want to take her to the vet because usually if a cat drools there is something going on with their mouth either a bad tooth, infected mouth or infected sore somewhere near their mouth. So my mom took her in to the vet today and they informed us that she had a tumor growing on her jaw which basically meant she had cancer and that there wasn’t anything they could do for it so my mom decided to put her to sleep. We got Missy from my best friend’s Tab’s mom. Missy’s family had been evicted and they pretty much left her to fend for herself and she used to go looking in the garbage near Tab’s moms place. We aren’t exactly sure how old she was but I’m sure she was up there. It’s so hard to put any animal to sleep because I feel like I’m betraying them because they trusted me to take care of them and its so hard to feel them purring and loving on you and you know you’re going to put them to sleep.

Today we had a new 4th grade girl come through the lunch line who couldn’t remember her number so I asked her to go to the back of the line which there was only like 3 or 4 people behind her and she got a attitude with me and then when she came back up I asked her what her last name was and she got an attitude about it. I got her in the computer and she sat down to eat her lunch. I went back and told my manager that she had an attitude so keep an eye out. So the kids get up to throw away their trays and we have been telling them if you don’t want your milk don’t take it because if you take it you will sit down and drink it. The new girl comes up and she has a unopened milk on her tray so my manager tells her she needs to sit down and drink the milk and the girl replies” I don’t have no time for you GIRL.” So my manager and her go back and forth about the milk and I can’t remember if she drank the milk or not but my manager went to the vice principal about her and the arguing with my manager and the fact the girl basically elbowed my manager in her chest and all the vice principal said was “why were you arguing with a teenager.” I’m thinking WTF!!! So the vice principal has no problem with this girl basically abusing staff and showing no respect to us. Then they wonder why some of these kids don’t have respect for any adults. Maybe because no one is teaching to show respect. I get angry when the kids come through the line and say “hurry up or make some retarded comment to us or even make fun of my co worker because of his handicaps either the way he talks or anything else about him. I feel sorry for our future because it’s going to be fucked up if people don’t start teaching these kids manners and respect.
