I am having a day though... I am supposed to be training the guy who is going to cover for me... Yeah.. he sucks. He never wants to train. I sent an email to my boss and him (oh he is my boss's son) with a list of stuff asking if he is to be trained on everything.

I get a reply from my boss stating that yes he would like him trained on everything if I get a chance to show it. I wanted to write back that I am more than willing to train him at any point I am not the one who is avoiding the training, but decided that was not the best idea.

Also in the same reply was a question asking me what I thought my availability might by while I am on leave in order to help them should they have questions. Uhh.. If I am taking STD or FMLA (I am doing both) Legally I can't work during that time off especially the STD. Not that they would find out but if they did I could not receive my benefits. So I put off responding until he cornered me in the break room and asked me. So the only response I could come up with is that I could have my laptop with me and try to check my email once or twice a week. He did not seem thrilled by that answer but whatever. 
And how am I supposed to know what I will be able to do. I have never had a baby before. I am just so frustrated.

and then lets top that off with the stupid son, knowing I had a 15 bullet point list of things off the top of my head that I want to train him on sees me and asks "so is there anything that you need to show me" I just stared at him because I did not trust any words that may have come out of my mouth at that point. So after a bit he goes "well I mean you have stuff to show me but like when, later this afternoon maybe?" I responded with I am available whenever you are to show you everything. His response.... "how long do you think it is going to take?" I said well that really depends on you. So he then said "it depends on how smart I am right?" So i just said yes and walked away. Never heard from him again for the rest of the day.

I am getting so frustrated by the whole freaking thing and know I will be blamed for everything not happening because he refuses to learn. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
