I put all my effort into making decorations, handing out pamphlets, and doing anything I could to make the school better because before I met you I truly thought that it was worth something. I put all I could into that school. I did all I could and I loved it. That was the terms I had been hired under.
And then you said, "The conditions have changed" and that was it. No discussion allowed.
Oh, don't worry, my lunch break wasn't so bad until after the conditions were changed. I really did enjoy working there when I spent the other two days trying as hard as I could to get new students. I loved making the children smile as I gave them a balloon; I chatted with themn in English, I convinced many children I met to join.
The fact is, you can't handle leadership and you don't want to admit it to yourself. You also have an anger problem. You should probably deal with that. But it's not my problem anymore :-)
I hope you learn to deal with your anger more effectively. Lashing out on the internet will not help you much at all in the long run (as I said, I'm only posting this because I don't want anyone else to fall for the same trap).
