But May made sure to speak pretty quietly. Anne, on the other hand, talked very loudly as usual and actually woke up two children.
That’s why she decided to “gently” shush the floater. Still, Anne just didn’t get the hint and asked, “Why are you shushing me?” very loudly.
At that point, she pointed out how Anne was being too loud and causing the kids to wake up from their naps. However, Anne just reasoned that there were only 30 minutes left of naptime anyway, and some of the kids had woken up already.
Regardless, she told Anne that she wanted the remaining kids who were still asleep to get the rest of their naptime uninterrupted. And that did keep Anne quiet for a little while.
But it just so happened to be raining outside that day, and the storm really grew in intensity while Anne was chatting with May inside her room.
So, Anne started asking very loudly if it was raining a couple of times. And since the blinds in her classroom were drawn for naptime, they couldn’t actually see outside, and she just whispered, “I think so.”
Rather than moving on from the topic, though, Anne actually walked over to the sound machine and claimed that she “wanted to hear the rain.” Then, the floater just turned off the sound machine– which three different children needed to sleep.
And as soon as the sound machine was off, those three kids immediately woke up and shot up inside their cots.
By that point, she had had enough. So she actually told Anne to just get out of her classroom. Still, Anne became quite offended and claimed that she couldn’t force anyone out of her classroom.
“But I said it was my room, and I absolutely could,” she recalled. “I told Anne that she had no right to touch our property and interrupt nap.”
Yet, the floater still refused to leave, which forced her to call and get the daycare’s director involved! Now, once the director arrived, Anne was forced to leave just to mitigate any more drama.
