It's a tough part of the job and can be stressful when we need to fill that spot!

But on the other hand, it's stressful for parents too and sometimes they're on a time crunch because they go back to work soon. It is their right to take a dc spot when they want and to cancel all other meetings. It only makes sense IMO.

It's the ones that don't show up at all or meet and say they'll be in touch but than disappear that bug me. Thankfully, it doesn't happen too often! It's been 2 years since I've had spaces open up and this Fall I'll have 1-2 I need to fill and am already dreading the interviewing process
