Part of my problem is that I hear all the chirping and don’t necessarily know whence it comes.
Unless I take the time to look at the bench and acknowledge them, I don’t know if it’s coming from the HC, the AC, B12, or grumpy Dad. If I know it’s from the bench, but not the HC; I’ll ask the HC to address it. If it’s constant from the HC, I might remind him that I’ve done this before.
