Whatever makes you sad..

[Rusco]

What makes me sad? Well, it's that you can see the fundamentalists and extremists are moving on. Homophobia, racism, neolibralism taking over... Who ever asked that??

Also the recent quarrels at the board about trolls, unwanted persons or whatever; we've seen some of it earlier here too haven't we? I'd say we don't that kind of shite, c'mon. If anyone has a political agenda an old school question goes why don't they represesnt it clearly here?

Or - a mystical question: is something, a word, a substantive, which is not said here at the board at all -
an explanation to it?

Shit day today.

people judging me and not asking me.

it seems that I'm being discriminated because in their opinion I'm "unfit".

 

[Coumarin]

Unfit for what WW? your usual role?

[Master Ray]

Feeling a bit picked on by someone you truly respect... 

[Coumarin]

Unfit for what WW? your usual role?

ie keeping us children on this board in a presentable manner for the classroom?

[Sheena]

What's going on Wessexy Witch and Ray?  Is it knob head week?  **** 'em all!

[Anna Woman von NRW]

Hey Wessexy - remember that old adage about opinions and arseholes.................  Only bother about the opinions of those you love or respect.

[Wessexy Witch]

Unfit to do the home visits for the September intake.
Unfit to ride in a car then sit and talk/play/interact with children and fill in paperwork.

What, just like you do everyday at school Wessexy?
Yep, just like that.
Like I have for the past 3 years.
Like the home visits I did last year when I was f***ing dying slowly and in constant pain.

 

I got so upset yesterday I cried in the classroom.
 



..and now today, my new best working partner ever, Mrs F has given her notice because she has to move to Scotland for her husbands work.

Gutted.
 

[Sheena]

Sounds utterly shit, WW.  Can you find an ally?  No one should be made to feel so bad at work (or anywhere, for that matter).  Love and strength to you x

[Anna Woman von NRW]

That's really awful Wessexy, feel for ya.

Unsure if these comments are coming from your bosses/management - maybe a chat with your union rep could help if that's the case or a supportive colleague?

Hang in there honey 

[Wessexy Witch]

It's the head who has decided this. She is worried that I might get hurt/ hurt myself when out but doesn't understand that anyone can get hurt/hurt themselves at any time in or out of school. It's because she cares. So she says.
I don't think she understands how pathetic it makes me feel. To be truthful the 2 classes I have now are the most violent I have ever come across and working in the class is dangerous sometimes but if I mention that I'm scared of what might happen next.

I'll put my brave face on and battle through no doubt.

 

[Master Ray]

WW.  Firstly, all the best to you.  Secondly, if you truly feel you are in danger, then it ain't worth it. There are always options.  Obviously I don't know too much about what you do, but if there is a chance of real harm coming to you, don't save face, get the hell out.

Today a child hurt 4 kids and 3 adults.
Kicking
Biting
Spitting
Punching
Slapping

accused a teacher of being "pissed"

told another to "get lost and get out of here now"

"I don't have to do what you say, you are poo"
"You annoy me all day"
"Why do you have to speak to me all the time ? Shut up now or I will kick you"

This child is 4.

Expulsion. That is what I'd have got at that age and my mum and dads anger too!

Miss Rimmington would have never considered dealing with that nastiness. She would have told my Dad. That would have been just as bad. It was a village society though. I bet yours isn't such the same place WW

[Wessexy Witch]

The Mum's reply was "Oh, that's not very good ".

Translated as " I don't give a shit".
