It would have been more enjoyable if I weren't the only teacher who has to come back to school today, sit here, and doing nothing for 8 hours. Why? It's in my contract.
I have a mandatory teacher orientation today from 11am to noon, a few subway stops away. Instead of letting me come to work before or after the orientation, my school is making me come here before and after orientation. I have to be here from 8:30 to 10, take an official leave for orientation, then come back and sit until 4:30.
I understand they want me to work for my money, but I would be perfectly happy not coming in today for no pay.
Mood: Annoyed
Also, my school is changing windows over January so we can't teach winter camp. When I heard the news for the first time in October, I was secretly doing the conga, because I thought it meant camp would be cancelled.
Camp was cancelled, just not for me.
My school decided to outsource me to another school, so I have to teach a bunch of kids I've never met before two weeks of English camp. The worse part is they already have a two week camp with their own English teacher, so I'm making them do double shift. A lot of kids that go to winter camp go because they parents force them to. I can already feel my unpopularity rising.
They could have shortened both of our camps, so that we're both still working and the camps are of normal length for the kids. But no. They want their money's worth.
Activity: Stewing in my own waste, waiting for 10 am or my phone to finish charging. Whichever is faster.
