What sumi said, ChiKat. Jeebus, that SUCKS.
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It both sucks and blows and not in the entertaining way.
So, when does Buffista Academy start up? I'm a kick ass drama and video production teacher.
ChiKat, that is some major suckandblow.
Oh, man, ChiKat--that really blows!! I'd take you out this weekend to cheer you up, but I've got class. Maybe next Friday night? Totally my treat.
Ugh ChiKat, that sucks. Makes me ragey on your behalf.
Egad, ChiKat. Good luck!
Oh, ugh, ChiKat. I'm so sorry. Matilda's two favorite teachers here just got RIF'd too; Hec talked to them a bit about it, and apparently it's just a queasy yearly ritual--fired in the spring, state lege and governor wrangle over the budget all summer, re-hired just before fall. It's got to be absolutely crazy-making, and it's amazing to me that any teachers manage to be functional (let alone, as so many improbably are, brilliant) with that sword constantly hanging over your heads.
Chikat, I'm so sorry. It's terrible to think that a talented, dedicated teacher is put through the ringer through no fault of her own, over and over. That lack of security and continuity is screwing with our youth, too.
I'm wishing something better/more secure coming your way immediately.
Jeez, Chikat, that sucks. Hope you find something awesome soon. (sometimes, although this is a total headfuck, people get slips and they get asked back too.) That sounds cruel and unusual.
