Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Oooh! New stylist.
New - old stylist. My aunt who cut my hair from the time I was a little shaver until I moved to California. She's pretty good, if a bit old school. We'll see. She's cheap and available (kind of like me!) and I'll probably switch to my friend Stacie's salon which is younger and more hip. Her's is also an Aveda salon. Whoo, pretties!
Also, I tried out the L'oreal Bare Minerals mineral foundation and OMG LOVE! I'm sure it's not as good as the other stuff Jilli and Plei and Cass and seemingly everyone in here uses, but it's teh awesome for me. And again, cheap and available (like me!).

Huh. I just found out via email from Big Boss that one of the members of my department "will not be returning this year" and, I assume, not be coming back next year. I have no idea why. I'm freaked.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Wow, this hate note to Roger Clemens is just a beautiful piece of poison pen.

That is freaky in your line of work! It's not like it's a business like the one I'm in when people leave or are asked to leavea any ol' time of the year.

I found out why. Apparently this person used inappropriate language (repeatedly) in her classroom. Although I understand this rationale to some extent, I'm a little concerned about why it was allowed to get to the point of no return before it was adressed. Makes me a tad uneasy.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
You mean that teachers would be fired without being given an opportunity to address the concerns that lead to the end of their employment?
Sorry. Bitter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
it was allowed to get to the point of no return before it was adressed.
They never warned her she was out of line?

No, I hear you. I'm really kind of baffled. She taught mainly 6th grade, which doubtless contributed to the severity of the response...but I have to wonder why there wasn't a probationary period. All I can think is that maybe no one complained until it had gotten so bad that the admin felt that they couldn't salvage the situation with the parents. Still, really unsettling.
ETA:
They never warned her she was out of line?I don't know. It's all shrouded in confedentiality.
