Do I LOOK Like I'm in Charge

I don’t know how many can relate to this but do you ever find yourself shouldering responsibility you didn’t apply for? I find with my mom gone the last few weeks I am being conscripted for more than I asked for. I am almost afraid to walk by the office, so often I have and there is someone sitting there looking a little lost. “Can I help you?” (maybe I should stop being so helpful) “Yes, I was told to wait for Cheri.” Last time I checked I have no authority to hire anyone so I don’t know why I’m getting all the applicants, the secretary can accept applications, but I guess the desperate ones want to see someone.

It seems like if Mr. Ongondo (the headmaster of primary and really the in-charge guy) is not looking for me Pastor Charles is. And why do the teachers need to ask me if they are going? I’m not the head teacher. We do have a head teacher on campus who is usually there but he seems to be absent at the most critical moments. I guess the weird thing is I don’t actually make any major decisions. I just get informed about the whole processes of everything and put my two cents in. Sometimes not even that. Anyway, I think I’ll try to stay home most of the day tomorrow.
