I'm drinking. Update to Pervgate. And the reason I'm drinking.
So I spoke with my contact at the school district about the sexist comment and odd arm touching that teacher did to me today. She came to my office to talk about it and was so pissed she yelled.
She immediately called the superintendent and then went over to the high school
to talk to the teacher and the principal. About an hour later I got a
phone call from the principal apologizing for the school and said that
the teacher felt very bad and wanted to apologize to me tomorrow. I said
that wasn't necessary, I accepted the apology and was sure he meant
nothing malicious by it, but that it was sexist and I needed to make
sure he knew it was not appropriate, particularly in front of the
students. So of course I feel awky that this all had to happen, but I know I did the right thing. I also got a very formal apology email from my contact (cc'd to my bosses) on behalf of the school district.
Then I went over to see the 16 year old I mentor, (did I tell you she got suspended for a really long time and is now at the alternative to expulsion school for beating the piss-literally-- making the girl piss her pants out of fear-out of some girl at school??) The girl she beat up wouldn't come back to school for weeks because she was so embarrassed. Yeah, she thinks she could be pregnant. Jeezy creezy.
Ready to rumble.
Re: I'm drinking. Update to Pervgate. And the reason I'm drinking.
My day wasn't as crazy, but I am drinking too.
That arm touching thing is extremely awkward. You definitely did the right thing.
And I would be skeered of your 16 year old. But I am intimidated easily.
I wasn't drinking, but now I feel like I should.
That's tough about your mentee.
And I am sorry you were put in an awky spot, but you did the right thing.
I'm drinking with you, Kristen.
I must've missed where pervgate was originally mentioned but sounds like you handled it well.
I'm also hoping she's not knocked up...who wants to see a stretched out belly tattoo when relaxing at the beach or waiting in line for a roller coaster.
Were you able to hide your dismay when she revealed her #1 reason?
Drink up!
When will she find out if she is pregnant?

I'm glad you got an apology!
You totally deserve a drink.
