It doesn't seem like i can write decent schedules this summer. If i am not making errors then i deal with complaints from staff about how many hours they are getting. Then sometimes they complain about long shifts. They are good about getting suba among each other when they need changes. Still it seems like I can't do this well, and honestly it is me.
The first schedules i wrote i got corrected on every time for using too many hours. Then i started cutting down. Now i have super heavy admin work for fall so i am having more people stay later to help because i cant help with cleaning. The only thing I can push off a little is that my confidence is blown and the time i am allowed to work on schedules is much too short. I have 13 staff, balancing aides who can't be alone with kids with leaders, finding admin time for my colleague and I and different ratios for field trips plus subbing staff out to other sites. Everyone else seems to get it right as far as I can tell
I have 2 more weeks of schedules to write with more complications, but I really want to do it well.
