Hello everyone. I just wanted to be transparent here- I'm exhausted and have not looked at swim in a few weeks due to end of semester exams, grades, meetings, advising, teaching day and night classes, etc. that comes with my full-time job. I've also been recruiting staff and attempting to get their training set up and keep up with them so they are ready to go in June. I've also been training lifeguards for numerous pools across town, so have not had the brain energy to sit down and sort through to double check swim registrations are correctly placed.
I started to send invoices, but was told by many, they could not open them, so I stopped and just sent emails confirming each time in session 1 for families. I found out Thursday some people had these go into spam folders, so please check spam for Session 1 emails. Many of you in Session 1 thought I had not reached out when I had. I have not looked at Session 2 to be honest.
Also, to help me get ahead this year, I had a student worker to help place kids in classes and complete invoices, however I found out some placings were incorrect and then just about every invoice had the wrong fees attached, so I am having to go in every single registration again and double check it all then fix every invoice.
I am submitting grades this weekend for my Graduate course, then I am off on Monday and Tuesday to which I will devote to swim before I do one last lifeguard course for the community Wednesday-Friday.
I understand the frustration- I really do, but I just got too overwhelmed and let it cripple me. Anyway, just wanted to be transparent as I know all of Session 2 and our Friday parent/chid classes are still waiting on me.
