There was room inspection today and Eva, the cleaning lady, gave me a demerit because I had some paper in my trashcan. I was also given a demerit for not sweeping and mopping the floor in my room. The first demerit strikes me as bizarre because a few scraps of paper are no health hazard and certainly not messy. The second demerit is a change of the rules. A few months ago, Laverne told me that room inspections only look at the fridge and sink. I admit that I do need to clean the floor and I would've gladly done it if I has known that was the rule.
Laverne also said this was my 3rd infraction and that counts the bogus 2 I received a couple of months ago. Laverne left a note on my door that I didn't see until about 5:15 AM and in it she wrote that she wanted to see me at 8 AM. Now, about a year ago I had permission from Laverne to stay out after curfew because I work the 2nd shift. For that year, during my work week I have regularly been signing back in at around 5:15 AM and that sheet is available to Laverne. Now, I did leave her a note giving her some of the information she requested but that wasn't good enough for her. When I got up, I had 2 infraction notices.
