Re: Open Letter Tuesday

  • dear assistant principal,

    i am sure you took a management 101 class, but your demeanor with me today did not belie as such.  it is really, REALLY insulting when you walk into my classroom unannounced and do a full period "unofficial observation" without any warning, because i have no idea what your expectations are. 

    when you then provide me with a full page of things you think i did poorly, and corner me about them like a caged animal, i have every right to be upset.  i have been teaching longer than 90% of the staff at our school; i come earlier and stay later than EVERYBODY else, i take on student teachers every year, and go to millions of professional developments on my own dime. i would appreciate an effing iota of respect for it.

    kthxbai,

  • Dear Fellow Grad Student,

    We get it; You're from South Africa, Malaysia and Singapore. We get it; You're confused. We get it; You're certified in a few different forms a ballet. We get it; the terms are starting to get mixed up for you. But *please* stop pointing out how you know things differently and that *all of us* are possibly wrong. It's getting really old really quickly. This grad program isn't all about you. I'm not paying over $15k a semester to hear you whine.

    Sincerely, stop talking to me

  • Dear This-Side-of-5am,

    I hate you. You and I used to be acquainted because of after-parties and all-night ragers. Waking up this early fuckingsucks. Despite waking this early, I still have no time to get all my work and life tasks done.  Let alone being social and human.

    See you tomorrow.

    Tired and Cranky, 315
