Good news: Everyone (including teachers) keep raving that this book has been the best they've ever seen.

Bad news: I can't take off my two days of work for exam marking cause I have to distribute the books. :shamefulcry:

Good job Sensei! Omedeto gozaimasu! :applaud: (Don't you have a big strong younger brother to help with distribution?) [/list:u]

lol yesh, but I have the yearbook kids helping me out. :thumbsup:

Got back to work today, and got an ass kicking for not ringing a client to tell him his gear wasn't going to arrive over the weekend. The fact that I told the boss on Thursday that it had come in and the client needed it, before taking Friday off, apparently didn't count.

So I gotta be head down, keeping out of trouble today :(

Always leave a paper trail. Always.

I COULD have had tomorrow off... except for the fact that I have to distribute yearbooks. :shamefulcry:

Yup! Only now I wish I was teaching Civics again instead of English, because I've already got the course planned out completely. Teaching English means a whole new prep. :shamefulcry:

Don't ya hate it when they do that? Haven't they got better things to do than annoy the workers?

I had a boss once who insisted on reading every fax that came in or out of the fax machine. In a building with 30+ employees, and with him coming and going regularly. It used to really p*** me off :grumble:

Too bad I didn't have one of those shooting gallery rifles: then she can pace back and forth all she wants...! :hehe:

Boss is being a knucklehead today as well... Must be that time of the month.

Maybe I should leave a box of Mydol/Pamprin on her desk. :grumble:
