Thought my teaching days were over. Had given notice early in July.My reasoning at the time was that my classes were mostly preempted by school social events.
Teaching English once a month just didn't seem to be of any benefit to anyone.
Was on the phone with the school yesterday for almost an hour and finally caved in.
I did receive a promise that only one class would be preempted till the end of the term.
Students and teachers of course did not know the truth about my absence.
As far as they were concerned I had been ill. It's a face saving white lie instead of admitting he real reason.
To emphasize my recent illness I was presented with a "get well basket."
Further appeasement was promised to be in place by Friday: A computer and big screen TV.
Teaching and lecturing will be so much easier with visual aids.
Look at the basket, how many vitamin drinks? If you think eighteen, you're wrong. The boxes are empty decorations. Deceptive!!
