    Annoying

    Just a vent......I have a parent who comes in every day and takes 2 paper towels to blow her nose even though the Kleenex box is right next to the paper towels.

    If that is my biggest vent today.......it's a great day!

    I wonder why one would use a paper towel when there is a tissue right there. Tissues are so much softer.

      ... because the dust in many tissues makes dust allergies worse. Ever pull several out in the direct sunlight to watch the upcoming dust cloud?

      And the lotion ones, ugh... Just no.

      Bounty select-a-size beats tissues for me, hands down. Virtually dust free and stronger.

      I just had this argument with my licensor. As long as it is soft, serves its purpose and is disposable, what difference does it make?? Maybe they will start making them in a more palatable pop up box for the naysayers soon. ::::

        Every day? ::::

        Is she allergic to bleach and lysol? (the scent of every daycare in the known world )

        Maybe you should send her home with a roll for her car as a hint.

          Either for her or her son. I think it's a stall tactic....she tends to hang around.

            I have the "stall tactic" with some parents signing in....It is annoying for sure! I had one ask me this morn if I was going by my cell phone or my daycare clock which is approximately 30 seconds different:confused: for closing time...I replied "well it really doesn't matter because parents know to be here and gone before closing"...she didn't like that answer::

              She wanted that extra 30 seconds without paying the late fee????
