I'll eat high quantity when I'm eating the beloved cheap white carbs. With those gone, my appetite becomes much more like a normal persons.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm trying really, really hard to avoid high fructose corn syrup.
Um, except for all of the Christmas candy and cookies in the house that were given to us as gifts.
"Only Home Made Goodies" can be a good line to draw that eliminates most hfc.
Of course, the psycho line that I'm drawing is "if it doesn't get eaten by midnight tomorrow it gets tossed". The thing that makes this nuts is that I will spend the next 36 hours mainlining cookies.
Then this weekend the rest of the simple carbs will go bye-bye until Valentine's day. Six weeks of hard-core healthy girl will feel very good right now.

Kat, I wonder how the school district would react to some bad publicity from the local paper. Because the press loves "stupid callous bureaucrat" stories.

The school district is sick-making, Kat.
My office effed up and didn't withhold for my health insurance for a year and a half... so they spent the next year and a half doing double. It sucked, but they didn't charge me INTEREST for their freakin mistake.

Seriously, someone ought to talk to a lawyer about this. Most lawyers will do a 15 minute free consult to determine whether it is worth talking further. But the press is cheaper, and it is amazing what bad publicity wills sometimes do.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Since there is a union involved, there are collective bargaining issues. Single folks may be barred from bringing suit in the case of a union disagreement.
But obviously, your union dues are being pissed away for the lack of representation you've gotten on this, Kat.

Seriously. I'm not sure who pisses me off more: the district or the union.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I swear I saw a poster in a bus stop that referred to the teacher's pay idiocy.
I know of the endorphins and miss them greatly. It's been a while.
And today is not a good day, so I think I'm going back to sleep.

Which a lawyer might know about. Fore example does the Union have an enforceable legal duty they are not carrying out (as opposed to a moral or common sense one which may not be legally binding)?
But even if there is no legal remedy, I can think of a lot cases where bad publicity has made the bad guys back down. And in this case the district is answerable to an elected school board...

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I want a pizza and red wine diet.
Ooh, I've done that one! You don't lose any weight, but it's really easy to stick to.
