My favorite was when you took your own time to worry about a student enough to call the parent, only to be yelled at, cursed at, blamed, and at times, reported to the principal for "harrassing my child." You can't blame the kids for being rude - they learn it at home. I loved my students and learned to deal with them, not their parents. I taught high school so I could do that. There had to be a major issue before I would contact the parent.

I very quickly developed a hard skin and became very assertive and set very strong boundaries. Other people figure out that's how you are very quickly, and they back off real fast!

Good luck. Just remember, if you can raise a stubborn little Yorkie, you can deal with anyone! You'll be terrific.

Hahahaha you're soo right! Thanks for the kind words! You reminded me that at the end of the day, I always have my yorkie to come home too..and that always makes me forget about them! The rude customers obviously don't have the love that I have from Rocky, so I guess I can see why their bitter. Maybe they all want discounts so they can save up and get a yorkie
