F You, Monday!!!

I just have to vent ... and it's only 7:15 AM. Ugh!

So I took off Friday to go with my daughter on her field trip.
I always get to my classroom about 45 minutes to an hour early depending on traffic. I walk in this morning and apparently the sub they had for me on Friday was brain dead... my room is a disaster. Textbooks are piled in the corner, the desks are all out of order, my desk had all kinds of paper and other things on it. The subs here are awful, so I expected this.

Well, I go to print the test I am giving today and, of course, the damn printer isn't working AND it's out of paper. So I get it back working, run get paper, and finally get my test printed.

I am just really annoyed when my day has to start out this way. I like for my hour before the rowdy teenagers enter to be quiet and serene in preparation for the unpredictability that is about to occur.

Anyway, happy Monday, everyone! Hope your day started out better than mine! XO!

Re: F You, Monday!!!

  • Sorry about the crappy start to your day.  I hope it gets better!

    Mine hasn't been off to a great start either.  Last night I had put together a plan of all the things I was going to accomplish today.  I walked in this morning feeling very confident and productive.  Then I find out two of my coworkers are out (and didn't tell me) and now I'm covering their zone as well.  Totally threw me off and now I'm playing on the Internet to calm myself.  Yup, 8:30am and my day is already shot  :P

  • Hope your day gets better!

    Mine started out debating with the receptionist at my dentist's office at 7:30AM because she couldn't find my appointment.  I showed her the card the technician gave me last time with today's date and time. Luckily, she was able to squeeze me in and I still got to work on time, but now I'm hungry and my gums are still too sensitive to eat. 

    Happy Monday!!!

  • So far my Monday has been okay, but I'm sure that will change since it's Monday and I expect Mondays to be craptacular ;)
  • Our satellite wasn't working this morning, so I couldn't watch the news while I got ready. Then, I come to work and the internet isn't working. I even came in early!  Now I have nothing I can do.

  • I don't get how subs can act like that and still expect to get work! I have friends who did subbing after graduating college because it's all they could get at the time. How would they expect to land a FT teaching position with that kind of evidence of shitty work ethic against them?? I just don't get it. Sorry you have to deal with all that first thing this morning!!

    Apparently going to bed at 10 last night wasn't good enough for my body. I ended up smacking my snooze button more than usual this morning (without even realizing it) and getting up late. I brought my makeup to work with me and still haven't done it.

  • @LuckyAngel07 these subs are so old. They're usually retired teachers who just don't care anymore. And they're all we have so that's why they keep getting called.

  • I walked in the office this morning and got yelled at by a tenant who lives at one of the complexes that I don't manage. Getting yelled at first thing in the morning for someone else's mistake is NOT a good start to the day.

    I already have had a headache and felt crappy since I woke up.

    So, agreeing with most everyone, Monday sucks. I need a drink (or several).

  • That sucks, I'm sorry. Mine's not so great either. I think I'm getting a cold, as I don't feel all that awesome. Also, I caved and tested even though I knew better. Whomp whomp.

  • @sparklingdiamond - I feel your pain. I've had more than my fair share of car troubles in my life. Our new (to us) car was in the shop within a week after purchase (In the car's defense, we just heard a small noise and our goal is to cash in on the warranty as much as possible while we can!). I hope it's a quick and inexpensive fix for your car!

  • Sorry to everyone having a case of the Mondays :( 

    A little bit of good today: We got our first snow today (I love snow!) and we're having chili and carving pumpkins tonight.

    The not awesome: It was so dark this morning when I got to work, sort of depressing. All I wanted to do was stay home and cuddle with my animals. Also, I got a BFN yesterday and today (11 and 12 DPO) so I'm pretty bummed about it and feeling crampy and blah, but better to get this cycle out of the way and just move on. Sort of related, I had to reschedule my annual appointment because AF is due that day. They couldn't get me in for another two months for another appointment.
