number four
next thursday will be my last day at international house.
the students could have told me i speak too fast before going straight to the boss. you'd think, right? that's complaint number four. bad thing in my life number four.
i'll just go update my cv now. tonight k and i will be feasting on my duty-free spoils from england. d's away for a friend's memorial, which sucks since he's the best at comforting me. i know it's not the end of the world, but dammit, she could have told me. they could have told me. there's a line between "listening to the students' wishes" and "giving the teachers a warning, let alone a second chance."
I'm not too worried about the future; this is the best time of year to be fired, because there's so much demand for language teachers everywhere. I also do have several hours coming up doing invigilation for TCD exams, so i'll have a paycheck mid-june as well. but i really liked it there. i thought the classes were getting along with me. and i deserved to be told.
