Sorry to hear nobody answered your calls or called you back. We have a policy that someone has to answer the phone or return the call if they leave a message prior to the end of the day.

They are severely understaffed and the state keeps sending them violent criminals that should be locked up. Staff is assaulted on a fairly regular basis and they are not allowed to fight back. They are supposed to use their Mandt training to restrain the individuals until enough staff arrives to safely deal with it. Yeah, she works. Eh...wot?

I did work through lunch though, so there is that. Had to make some phone calls to people needing help. A lot of the people I assist call me on their lunch break, so I make it a point to answer the phone or return calls then. Seems to work out well for both parties. Have a great day.
