fuck this job.com

I was given a verbal offer by another school district

I quit without a contract and I really do not care.

It is amazing-sorry to bore everyone....that I can watch a investigative report into the shoddy labor practices in China and relate so much of what i have experienced in my position.

Being lied to, being cheated out of money.

A number of extra hours- no thanks for effort

Idiots being promoted over competent workers- idiots failing- then blaming competent workers

No resources

I am waiting to here if I got a job that I interviewed for...

There is nothing like absolutely hating your current job, interviewing at a place that you would kill to be at- then having to sit at the same old desk- while waiting for the phone to ring...

I am now going to church more- which means that there is a positive side to hating your job.

I also keep a prayer card on my desk- when I have the urge to pummel someone with a stapler- I can hold onto the card and think of all of the reasons that prison is a bad place...

As I proceed to the last 20 weeks of this God forsaken school year....I have yet another gripe..

My boss, who was raised in the US of A...cannot use the past or the future tense correctly in a sentence...example

"I am going to the board yesterday"

" We should do that thing about yesterday...tommorrow..."

By nature, I am not a violent person..but I would like to beat this person to death with a dictionary...

I could imagine CSI coming in...taking the photos of the body, examining the pages that had fluttered about the room
in the course of the grisly attack...

The other VP breathes like Darth Vadar...now that is annoying during a conversation...I am continually looking around for my Wookie and wondering when I should warm up the Milennium Falcon...

There is nothing like a forced Christmas Party- you know the one-
You are in your last friggin year of a job and you work with people that you would rather run over than stand next to- and there is a Christmas party to get the shitty morale that everyone has happy-somehow-

Am I the only one who has ever tried to make-it wasn't a beeline- it was like an OJ Simpson "holy shit the LA Police are after my ass" run out the front door... and the principal stopped me-

Some questions...

1. Why do bosses think that we will not want to kill them at these things?
2. Why do people who I can't stand want to talk to me...there is no alcohol available- why would I ever like them?

I have 36 more weeks in this job- then I can move one-

I feel horrible, but my students are six grades below level- I just don't have it in me-

I love how there are all of these emotional movies featuring these inspirational people that can make the lame walk, etc.

If AA invented a slogan- I am borrowing it now- one day at a time- take it easy- whatever...

A rat broke loose through a hole in a wall this morning (within my room)and started running around my room while I screamed and jumped on top of my desk (very impressive- I believe that my ass developed springs as I have no recollection of using my feet).

The big guy ran out into the hall

I called the main office and told them that they could forget the traps for the mice and that someone needed to bring a shotgun to my room-

The janitor showed up and asked me if I was sure that it wasn't a mouse and it would have helped if I had tried to catch the large sized rat (which, in China, could have had 4 wheels shoved on it with a horn and bumper and qualified as a family car)

Has anyone in here ever been given a job to do that involves a chance to shine...

Then have been placed with a complete idiot to work with-

You know what I mean- it is like Tom Hanks in Apollo 13 "I can't fly this thing...It is like having an elephant on my back."

One moment- hey your happy- life is like a Greek wedding ....the next....a funeral....

You know the person that they put you with...whimpy...quiet...looking at you with those big cow eyes....you know that if you were on a farm and they were the veal calf you would carry them and toss them over the fence to freedom

Until you start working with them on the project that will make you shine- or shine other people's shoes for a living-

I worked my butt of this year- 80 hour weeks- every Saturday I would tutor, worked after school, ran the prom, the junior class, etc.

So I ask for one thing at the end of this year- a summer school job-

What happens? The list comes out on Friday last week and I am not on it- two other teachers are hired to work Math for the summer-they don't even work at our school

Great-Just friggen great..I snapped- and left...dropped my keys and walked-

Then the phone calls started- how could you do this? Oh...you are just upset (ya think?)Two hours later, I had a job at the school-

It is unbelievable when you are willing to work, have worked your ass off and do not ask for a bigger room, more money, a chair that does not go all the way to the fucking floor backwards so I don't look like I am doing Pilates or some wierd Yoga trick...I just want to work and that is something that has to be begged for- great-

When you hate your job and feel that you can't make in a minute longer.....without taking a sharp object and impaling yourself on your bosses desk that:

A. There is always someone who tells you that for reasons of job security...you should stay..

It doesn't matter if you have panic attacks
It doesn't matter if you sleepwalk
It doesn't matter if you sleepwalk and have panic attacks at the same time

B. Whenever there is an office open next to you or a room- more often than not, the biggest asshole at work will get that office?

We have about 500 parking spaces at our school- literally a friggin mile of them- today...this idiot comes into my room and tells me that someone parked in her spot- it is unimaginable how people are so mentally disabled- we don't have assigned parking- now we are supposed to remember who parks in unmarked spots?

It is time for aliens to take over the schools in this country-

We were told, as it is the last day, that we may leave at 12:00 today-

At 11:00 AM, it was announced that we had to have a sign out sheet completed.....hey, I thought- how many people could I possibly need to sign a sheet 2/3? No problem in one hour....

Try 27....

We needed the bookroom lady to attest that we had turned in our books
The janitor to sign that we returned our keys
A VP to see that our room was clean and that we left no paper, bodies, etc. behind
Another VP had to check that all of out lockers were cleaned out
