Kathryn Report post Posted April 22, 2008 I've spent an hour and a half closeted in a stuffy room being interrogated by two inspectors ( educational not the police kind ). And they came in to observe me teaching at the worst possible point of my lesson when things were coming a bit unravelled: why didn't they come in when it was going OK, as most of it was??! I'm shattered. More tomorrow as well. K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted April 29, 2008 I don't understand the world or the people in it :tearful: Why do people leave you to guess what you've done wrong so both sides are upset rather than telling you directly? If I know what I've done I can mend it, if I don't I'm anxious and upset, I can't mend it and the person/people I've done wrong to continue to be cross/angry/upset.

pearl Report post Posted April 29, 2008 I had Woman In Beige Cardi at the enquiry desk again. I always get Woman In Beige Cardi cos everyone else sees her coming & runs for cover.

Mumble Report post Posted April 30, 2008 I had Woman In Beige Cardi at the enquiry desk again. *Throws our beige cardi* Our fire alarms went off at some unearthly middle of the night hour: I got soaked and cold standing outside in the rain in my pyjamas waiting for the firemen and the alarm was soooo physically painful I was almost in tears. Then I got a whole nearly four hours sleep before having to be up before 6am to an email that could be at best described as 'impolite' this morning that I've been dwelling on all day, then my first train was late and my connection cancelled and I ended up running for a mile through the rain so I wasn't late to where I was going. Glamorous life being a student. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oxgirl Report post Posted April 30, 2008 Jay was in a state this morning so I sent the taxi off and took him into school a couple of hours late this morning. Didn't have time to come home and then come back again so spent four hours wandering aimlessly around Oxford in the rain feeling miserable and lonely and bored instead, so that was my day ruined. He was in a right state last night when he got home, but when I talked to teacher she seemed to think he'd been fine.

oxgirl Report post Posted May 1, 2008 OMG, the taxi didn't pick Jay up from school today!! Apparently, a new child had been added to the route, Transport people, thinking they had a 7-seater, thought the other kid would fit in okay. As they, in fact, only have a 4-seater taxi, driver took it upon himself to pick up the new kid and to just not pick up Jay but DIDN'T TELL ANYONE, he just didn't turn up!! First I knew was 3.30 when the TA at school called to say he hadn't been picked up, it then took me 30 mins to get there, by which time it was gone 4.00 and Jay was hysterical!! TA who was there at 3.30 left after she'd called me and Jay had to sit in a room on his own for half an hour to wait for me (a meeting was going on in another room), but no-one sat with him, poor kid!! Plus, he's go SATs next week and is really, really stressed!! Feeling a bit stressed myself now, too! ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bard Report post Posted May 1, 2008 No, I think you're spot on. I have had three good years in a row, so obviously I have double the trouble this time!

It's tough to feel you're letting people down at work - I feel the same as there are only 3 of us and I have often staggered in with flu rather than stay off.

baddad Report post Posted May 6, 2008 My 'almost a positive but technically a scream because of the underlying implications scream': We ran out of mayo this morning when I made Ben's school sandwich... Now he does like a bit of mayo, so I said I would buy him some more today so he's got it for tomorrow... Soooooo... in the shops I saw two new 'deli style' mayo's, both of which were GF/DF - one with roasted garlic and the other with sundried tomato. Sound yummy? I thought so too! SO - I bought both, and then with my lunchtime sandwich I plumped for the roasted garlic one (and very nice it is too!). Anyways, when he got home from skool I told Ben and gave him a little taste of the garlic one. 'Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm'... he says, 'That's lovely. Now can I try the sundried tomato one?' When I said that I wasn't going to open both at the same time because they'd go off before we could finish them he said; 'Urgh! Well why'd you have to open the stupid garlic one? I bet the tomato one is much nicer!' I said, 'Yes, and if i'd opened that one you'd have said "Urgh - why did you have to open the stupid tomato one...".' Big sigh... 'Yeah, you're probably right' he says casually Now - my REAL scream... I also treated myself to a lovely magnetic knife holding strip for the kitchen . Unfortunately, I haven't got a lot of free wall space, so I planned to fix it on the end of one of the wall units... Problem one : length of strip 13". Depth of unit 12" AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! So. I eventually managed to convince myself that it would look really nice at a 'rakish' angle - a sort of stepped effect from smallest to largest running at a slight diagonal... okay... Problem two: Length of screws provided - inch and three quarter. Combined thickness of knife holder and side wall of unit - inch and a half. AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! So. Having looked in every toolbox I've got (don't ask), in every kitchen drawer/nook and cranny etc.. Guess how many screws I found that were precisely the wrong sizes for fixing the ******* knife holder to the ******* cabinet? Yep - eighty six million four hundred and ninety seven thousand eight hundred and twenty three.. AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! And how many that were the RIGHT size? Yep. None... AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Anyways, finally got it up (fnar fnar) and it looks absolutely beautiful (yak yak) And I can buy some stainless steel round head inch and a quarters to replace the black jappaned cross-heads tomorrow But... You know what's really bothering me now? AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE... around eighty six million four hundred and ninety seven thousand eight hundred and twenty two screws from now, I'm gonna realise I'm one screw short of a bird-table*... AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! * [anyone who said 'you already are' win's this month's Colin Hunt award for predictability] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
