And to the beach Staff: What are some challenges? Mrs. Williams: Some challenges are people (kids and parents) yelling at me. If they’re having a bad day at school or work they take their anger out on me. Staff: Do you have any other jobs outside of working at Hampton? Mrs. Williams: No, this is my only job, and it is my 7th year here. Staff: Did you ever work anywhere else? Mrs. Williams: No. I went to college and worked for a few years after college, but after I had kids, I didn’t work. My kids got to high school and that’s when I decided I wanted to get a job. I decided that I wanted to come here and work. Mrs. Kaiser was nice enough to hire me. Staff: Do you have to work during breaks or the summer? Mrs. Williams: No, every break that the students get off, I get off. If you guys have a snow day or any other break, I’m off too. Staff: Do you have to work on the weekend? Mrs. Williams: No, I have the same school schedule as you do, but I sometimes do work on the weekends because I have a device now. Staff: Do you ever have tech issues? Mrs. Williams: Yes, and when I do, Mrs. Dyer is our tech liaison. If she can’t fix it, I have to go through tech support. Staff: What is your daily schedule like? Mrs. Williams We greet the children, I take care of all the kids who come in late. I take the lunch count. I handle the stuff for Team, which is for kids with special learning needs. Staff: Do you like your job? Mrs. Williams: I love this job. It’s like coming to the castle. Staff: Do you ever feel like you don’t want to do it? Mrs. Williams: I think we all have days like that, but they are few and far between.
